an excellent set of mining laws govern
ing the size Of claims and the manner
of location, was adopted.
FL Reno capitalists have a ten-ton
sampling smeIter nearly completed and
only await the arrival Of the balance of
the machinery to commence active opera
tons.
The gold occurs as a telluride in the
highly altered states and basalic dykes.
Assays as high as $1,000 per ton in gold
have been obtained ard it is not to be
wondered at that prospectors are journey
ing from every direction.

INFORMATION ABOUT PROvINGUP
For the Guidance OF Benefciaries of
the Free Homes Law.

Guthrie, o. T, June 22-The Lincoln
County Democrat and Telegram contains
the following. under the caption: About
Proving up Under the Free Homes Law"
During the past few weeks the editor,
rs United States commissioner, has been
asked a number of questions which at
the time. owing to the fact that the land.
offices had not yet received their new
instructions as to procedure under the
free homes law, he could not answer, and
which he vii lnow endeavor TO briefly
answer
''Under the new law. the claimant has
the final commission of 81 and testimony
fee of $40 to pay at the land office on
100 acres On So the commission will be
but 81, and on 10 but Shut the testimony
fee is the same in either case. For pub
fishing the notice the newspaper man is
entitled to charge not 10 exceed $3.50 for
one tract Of land and the officer taking
the proof. If made outside the land office,
cannot charge more than $40 for the
affidavit and certificates. At this time
neither Of the newspa pers or officers are
charging as much as they could under
the law and proof are costing ali told,
s12Z
Parties who, after residing five years
on land. made their final proof but did
not pay the s125 an acre and where proofs
were suspended awaiting payment are
entitled to their final certificates IL they
make new final affidavit and send 81 in
with it to the land office before July J.
next After that time the Guthrie office
at least, will require new proof made
which carries with 1t all expenses named
above Parties who made proof since the
bill passed are receiving their final re-
ceipts now, without further proceed
ings
1.-THE Guthrie land office still holds to
the opinion that the law requires final
proof proceedings TO be started before
August l. although it seems to be the
| opinion of the commissioner at Washing4
ton that all who fled before July /. 1894.
have ten years from date of fling In
which to perfect their proofs At this
time the land offices are very much
| crowded, so much so that the Oklahoma
City office is now setting proof over till
1901 and the Guthrie ,ffice already setting
them on as far as October, this year. so
that to get proof perfected within the
next few months one must make iEme-
| date application.
| The free homes law, as passed, did not
| carry with it any provision restoring the
rights Of those who have made proof and
| payment FOR their lands. That is the
| provision Of a bill which has not yet be-
come law. And the free homes bill
| only provides for free homes in lands al
ready opened to settlement. The Kiowa
| and Conanche lands. which congress has,
| by law, directed to be opened. will have
to be paid for at the rate of $50 per
! acre"

Guthrie, o. T., June 22-According to
the Blackwell Times-Record school
house and school-teacher famine CON
fronts that city. The Times-Record says:
LAS predicted by this paper, the board
of education thus early is confronted with
the necessity OF more school room and
more teachers. The enrolment for the
district is AS, and that number will be
materially increased before the opening
OF school. 1t is useless r. figure on less
than 900 pupils. and with that number
enrolled we have just about half room
enough and half enough teachers We
should have at least two public school
buildings Of ten rooms each, situated one
on the east and the other on the west
side Of town, and then in the event Of
further increase in our school population,
q central building would be necessary.
The public schools are one thing in
which we are all unselfshly interest and
the board Of education should have the
moral support Of all interested in their
work"
