Locating and Marking Claims So

Locating and Marking Claims So
~ - be Free From Adverses.
A location notice may be written, printed
or engraved on any substance.
Red ink or typewriter printing Will soon
fade. Lead pencil writing will last longer
than ink, and be legal.
Location notices must contain the fol-
lowing: Name or names OF locstors, date
OF location, and 9 sufficient description by
reference to natural objects or permanent
monuments to identify the claim and to
distinctly trace its boundaries.
A claim may be 800 feet in length and
800 feet on each side OF the middle Of the
vein or lode, but no larger.
At least 500 worth OF work or improve
ments must be NADIA on each un~patented
claim in each year, and unless so made the
claim may be relocated. But il the owner
or owners begin work at any time before
relocation is made their right holds good.
That ia, an owner may hold his claim by
beginning work instead Of by relocating,
even after the beginning OF a new year. II
no other locator has interfered.
No claim can be recorded until q vein or
lode, or at least indications, have been dis
covered upon 1t at some point.
Within q reasonable time the location
should be properly recorded.
The law makes no distinction on account
OF sex, and . minor may make . valid To-
cation.
A location made In the name Of i. prin.
cipal cannot be claimed by the person act-
ing as agent in making the location.
II a notice does not specify the extent Of
q claim il will relate only to the place
where it stands-ssy . place to start Q
shaft and no more.
A location may be made Oh any day.
Lines cannot be changed after location
to interfere with previous rights Of others.
A stake or monument al each end Of claim
showing that the locator claims the ground
from stake to stake and . specified number
Of feet on each side is sufficient to hold .
claim.
II a person takes up more ground than
allowed by law. IL does not invalidste his
claim. but he cannot hold more than 1900
by 600 feet in one claim.
Locators are not held to absolute accu-
rsoy. but description will be considered
suffi II il puts an honest inquirer In
the way Of finding the lode, aud reasonably
defines the boundaries.
The foregoing points are taken from
Cops American Mining Code, and are In
accordance with decisions by courts and
the land department.

John ID. Rockefeller may consider
himself . lucky man that he resides In
the United States instead Of in England.
II he lived on the right little, tight little
island he would pay 100000 . year
income tax: here he doesn't have to pay
q cent. There the rich people . the
rich corporations have to bear part OF
the public burden. The British income
tax produces over $50, OOO, 600 q year,
with not more than two.thirds OF the
national wealth Of the United States to
draw upon. w. w. Astor pays the
British ~exchequer q tar on the entails oil
his New York houses. because he now
resides in England. although he pays
none TO the Government that takes care
of them. Should not this country lake
. hint from not only England. but
Germany?
Germany has Q graduated system OF
income tax, increasing by six grada-
tions. Beginning at IL per cent on
incomes Of s25, 900 and over. As the
New York Journal says: "If Rockefeller
were . German ne would pay an income
tax Of $3.50, 900 g year in addition to his
other taxes. and those other taxes would
be paid and not lodged"
Who are the men who benefit moss
from the Government! Surely they are
those who have the greatest amount OF
property to be protected. And yet these
are the men who are allowed to escape
the payment Of taxes to the governments
Of this country!
If the rich were forced to pay their
share of the taxes of the United States
there would be no burden to complain OF.
The people realize this and the demand
for an income tax will soon become too
earnest to be longer denied.

A discussion is still going or between
the Government Of the United States
and that of Canada concerning boundary
questions. The Canadian Government
now demands the possession of Pyramid
Harbor, on the Lynn Canal. This is for
the purpose Of giving Canada an outlet
10 the sea from the Klondike on her own
territory-something she sadly lacks at
present. In all these Canadian boundary
questions so far, Great Britain has got
the better OF us and then has laughed at
US for our folly. Let us hope that this
time at least the Government of the
United States will not permit itself to
be automatically buncoed.

Mcmahon dismissed the jury and ordered the
prisoner back to the Tombs to await the action
Of the Grand Jury. The Court in taking the

a crime higher than that for which McDermott
was indicted had been committed McDermott
was on trial for assault.

house and. it is alleged secured large knife
with which he cut Waldvogel in the abdomen
The injured man was taken to Bellevue HOS
pital and died the next day

for assault in the first degree. When the case
was called before Judge Mcmahon a Few days

There have been persistent reports among the
politicians OF late that Louis F. Payn. the State
Superintendent of Insurance. had made a lasting
peace with Senator Plat and other leaders OF the
Republican organization who were hostile TO him a
year ago, and that he had obtained 80 many
promises Of support from members OF the State
Senate that he would be able TO hold TO his
present Office for at least another year. Governor
Roosevelt Is supposed to be inclined to name
another person for Superintendent Of Insurance at
the expiration OF Mr. Payn's term. but the consent
OF the Senate must be obtained before an appoint
