the leaders Of the order in his State. At the
last Grand Lodge held In Sioux City in May.
Mr.. Hubbard, at the earnest solicitation OF
his brothers. stood for the Office Of grand
receiver OF Iowa, being defeated by very
small margin. His opponent. Mr.. II. Michel-
stetter, has been for years chairman Of the
finance committee and his friends aver he
could have been elected grand master had
he aspired. Mr.. Hubbard was. therefore,
not at all chagrined at this defeat by q
most worthy brother. and his followers are
confident he now is in position to command
the best attention at the hands OF the Iowa
Grand Lodge of A. o. L. w. should he again
seek the suffrage OF its members. Having
taken an unusually active part in the max

seven full claims, properly located and recorded. The claims bear respec- lively the euphonious titles of Dutch Oven, Sea Gull, Marguerite, Cartoon, r sguise, Cigarette and Mitchell. The development work consits of 100-foot development work consits of a 100-foot Sea Gull, containing ore from a depth of 14 to 34 feet, running as high as 12 per cent copper and carrying golo and silver values. At 9S feet, the ore body comes in again and runs approxi- mately 12 per cent copper, $40 silver with a trace of gold. On the Disguise there is 17-foot shaft, out of which about eight tons of four per cent cop per was taken Numerous other dis covery and assessment holes show copper, in some instances, assaying high. There are a tleast ten different places where ore can be found on the surface. There is permanent water on the north end of the Dis guise.
 The people owning the group have never sought any notoriety for their property, believing that it can run along on its own merits. which seems quite probable from surface view at least.

A FEW SALIENT SUGGESTIONS.
 IN REGARD TO TITLE WORK

l. appears that a great many men do not understand the relation be- tween the territorial mining law and the act of congress on the same sub ject The act of congress simply fixes the maximum area which one can To- cate. while the territorial act is sup plementai. It can limit the area, but not extend it. and in all directions not in conflict with the act of congress, can provide the manner in which min eral lands shall be located, monument ed. recorded, etc. Our law should be so framed that every foot of assess ment and discovery work would re- dound. not only to the benefit of the claim upon which it is done, but to the advantage of the whole group and the whole district Of course. there is a provision to the effect that assessment work can be done on one claim where it accomplishes the material develop ment Of the whole group. but 1t is a loose and unsatisfactory provision, leaving the bars down for all kinds of litigation
 AQ tue ease Ol QlSCON cry HOlh, IL must be done on each and every claim. Down in the Solomon Springs district day before yesterday We counted some thirty holes, where the owners had naturally selected the softest spots and dug ten-foot hole. We would doubtless follow the same course un- der the existing law, but if discovery work was done on the same plan as assessment work, and both could be done in one place for the benefit of the whole group, men would take greater care and interest in the performance of their title work. Under the exist ing plan. assessment work is usually, and discovery work invariably thrown away. and we should unite to secure a change in the law in conformity with the lines herein suggested. It is a pity to see the honest miners prespi- ration wasted as it necessarily is under the present law.

The following snowfall bulletin, the first for the winter, from the New Mex ico section of the climate and crop service and weather bHreau of the United States department of agricul- ture has been issued from Section Di- rector R. M Hardinge, of Santa Fe.
 It seems to be the concensus of opinion that with the exception of the watersheds of the Canadian and trib- utaries, the present season, thus far, shows a better prospect for the abun- dant water supply in the streams Of the territory than for some years past. Al the close of January there was very little snow lying on the ground below 5000 feet. but since then there have been several light. moist snows. which soon eVaporated. Above 10000 feet, in the northern mountains. the average depth at the close of the month was from three to four feet on north sides but On south and east sides there were frequent bare spots. However. the exceedingly heavy winds during the last week in January. al though potent evaporating agent no less proved more advantageous than otherwise by drifting snow. With the exception of the northeastern quarter of the territory which has been un- usually dry throughout the past fall and winter the prairie soil is in very doubt proved more advantageous than spring with good grass and a good ing there is every prospect for an early good condition for the early start of water supply.
