Regulations Regarding Assessment Work.

The essential element of assess
ment work through which it effects
its object, the protection OF the claim
from forfeiture, IL the actual per-
Torrance of the $Ioo value of labor
and improvements on or for the claim
by or under authority of the owner
of the claim. Who gets the benefit
of the work when it is done depends
on the circumstances, but some one
gets it and the claim does not become
forfeit. If the owner does the work
himself, or pays the men who do it,
he gets the benefit. If bondee or
leaser does the work, it is tor the
owners benefit. If the bondee does
not pay for the work after it is done,
the owner gets the benefit of it. But
if the workman has lien for his
work, he may by due legal process
dispossess the owner and acquire
ownership himself. The owner of
claim can protect his title from be-
coming liable for payment for the
work done under bond by posting
notice on the claim, in public
place, declaring that he will not be
responsible, nor will the claim be re-
sponsible, for payment OF work done
under lease. Verbal notice to the
parties doing the work, if given be-
fore any work unpaid for has been
done, has the same legal effect, but
the written notice is preferable In
the State of California the recording
OF the bond with the proper covenant
as to who should pay for the work
done under it is legal notice to work
men that the owner of the claim is
not responsible tor pa yment for work
done under it. A part owner can
protect his separate interest by
notice.

WondcrsuI length Of Alfalfa Roots.

The Agricultural Department, at
Washington, has issued some inter
esting data on the way alfalfa will
send it's roots down in search of
moisture, and Charles w. Irish, chief
of the irrigation enquiry of the p.
S. Department of Agriculture, cites
case where mining tunnel was
run under a bluff where there was
an alfalfa field. In the tunnel work
men encountered alfalfa roots at a
depth of 10 feet below the surface.

IRRIGATION DEVELOPMENT.
Wild lasds Reclaimed and Made Into Valuable
Ranches.

Some of the most valuable ranches
in eastern Oregon produce their
crops from soil that was for years
considered worthless; and indeed 1t
was worthless until enterprise fol
flowed experiment and water tor ir-
rigation was introduced, says the
Burns, Orr Times. In this connect
ion J. G. Foley relates an interesting
story concerning the New Harper,
one OF the best of the big hay ranches
of Malheur county. At one time,
while in the employ of the Pacific
Livestock Company, Mr.. Foley had
temporary headquarters at the Har-
per. Then the soil now under Guilt
walton at the New Harper was lying
idle, and there were spots where not
even sagebrush or "salt grass" grew.
Mr.. Foley conceived the idea that 1r-
rigation would render those barren
spots productive, and after ascer-
tanning that the soil beneath the sur
face was soft and sandy, he seeded
one of them to alfalfa and plowed an
irrigating trench from a small spring
OF warm water to assist the soil in
its effort at productivity. The re-
suit was entirely satisfactory, and
at the earliest convenient time he
was placed in charge OF construct
ion force which, after eight months
of labor, completed an irrigation
canal seven miles in length, convey
ing water out of Malheur river to
the lands spoken of. That was some
thing like nine years ago, and in that
time the New Harper has become a
hay ranch oi first magnitude in its
section.
1t ever the question of securing
water for our now waste lands is
satisfactorily solved, there will be
many opportunities tor building
ranches just as valuable. acre tor
acre, as the New Harper, and the
men who do the work of develop
ment will build themselves into Il

The Uelinedt0r, of New York.
Taking the fact that next wear begins .
aew century, The Deiineator offers 10 distri-
butte $4,000 among 1901 women. The plan
is so ceverly arranged that a woman living IN
a small town or village, has just MS good a
chance to win one of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in a city-because the prizes
are gwen for the number of subscriptions
secured in town in proportion To the popu-
latlon of that town, instead of being given
simply to those who send the largest list OF
subscrbers-which, of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities. Another clever feature
Of the plan is, that all the cities and towns OF
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes The cities Of tie
greatest population are grouped in Glass /,
and AS these cities are not very many. the
prizes offered are twenty-epht; the high.

cause, of course there arc more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away to a class increases, so that in Glass
there will be $1,000 distributed among FOL
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one Of the 90 prizes there will be paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
they equal one out of every Two hundred IN.

testant sends them.
This is Altogether very liberal offer, and
one which the famous old Dtiinedtor is well
able to make good rom our point Of view,
we do not see why such an offer needs to be
made by the Publishers of The Drlinedto' Ior
we believe it already has nearly half a million

May Tunnei the Sierras.

The greatest project in view in
the reconstruction of the Central
Pacific Railroad, is the tunnelIing OF
the mountains and the cutting out of
the snow-sheds, says the Truckee
Republican.
The proposition has been talked of
before, but this time the company
has supplies on hand tor the survey
or's camp, and the survey will be
commenced as engineer w. c. Eades
arrives, which is expected to be
about the middle of this month. He
is under H. Hood, the chief engineer
of the company. 1t will take sever
al months for him to complete the
survey, and when he gets through
and reports it will be definitely
known whether or not the tnnnel
will be constructed. The plan is to
start from Cold Stream and come
out at Soda Springs. The distance
is about five miles. Such tunnel
would shorten the road, do away
with the snow.sheds and lessen the
grade, but on the other hand it
would cost about $5ooo,ooo and
there would be the disadvantages of
obtaining pure air in running
through such long tunnel.

ModoC lynchers Identified.

A press dispatch of Tuesday says:
"Kvery member of the mob which
took Calvin Hall and his three sons
and Daniel Yantis from the custody
of a Constable and his deputies at
Lookout, Modoc county, CAL, several
months ago, and hanged them to
bridge, will be brought to justice"
declares Fred H. jackson, who has
made an investigation of the late
tragedy for Attorney-General Tir-
ley l.. Ford, of California.
Jackson is employed as a Wells
Fargo messenger on the jackson and
lone stage, and made himself famous
in the battle which resulted in the
death of John Sontag and the cap
ture of Chris Evans, and in which
battle he lost foot. Shortly after
the Modoc lynching he appeared in
that vicinity, ostensibly to spend
several months at his wife's former
home on Churn Greek bottom, near
Redding, but in reality to assist the
State in establishing the identity of
the lynchers.
The public in general failed to sus-
pect the occasion of his visit, but
the members of the midnight party
at Lookout did, ahd their reports
warned jackson to stay away. I'm
mindful of this, Jackson went
straight to the stronghold of the
lynchers, and avowing the purpose
of his visit, began an investigation.
He was again waited upon, but de-
clined to take cognizance of threats
made against him. He completed
his investigat and departed with
out molestation. jackson says that
hanging of the FIVE men was entire
ly unjustifiable. He feels confident
that a clear case can be made out
against each member of the lynch
ing party. Jackson will not give
the names of any of the suspected
| men at present.
