REMARKABLE BOOK.

THE BONANZA has just been favored
by Adolphus L. Fitzgerald with a
copy Of his exhaustive financial treat
Use, 1.-THE Thirty Years War on Sill
yer" So much has been written
and said concerning the money ques-
tion since the insanity of 1896, that it
would seem almost impossible to pen
a new observation upon the subject,
and yet Judge Fitzgerald's book is
entitled to high rank il the realm of
economic literature. He shows him
self to be deep student of the money
question, and even those who do not
agree with him, must admit that the
judge is brilliant logician and lucid
writer.

LARGEST CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH
ABOUT INCORPORATION.

On the front page of this issue we
list what we feel no hesitancy in
designating as few unanswerable
reasons for Incorporating Tonopah.
These reasons, as stated by members
of the Citizens Associa ton, need no
argument in their support. They
consist of facts and figures, which
speak for themselves Since the in
corporation movement first started,
however, the slight opposition with
which it has met has consisted chiefly
of fear that the city government
might prove too expensive. AS the
fixing OF all salaries is in the hands
of. the city council, the matter re-
solves itself into a question of elect
ing an honest and economical council
and this is an exceedingly easy mat
ter. A few skeptics, however, might
urge the objection that the men
chosen and vested with these powers
are apt to abuse their authority. In
answer to this, we need only point
out, that, according to this method of
reasoning, every form of representa-
tive government is dangerous. This,
Of course, is reductio ad absurdum
and the logical conclusion to which it
leads us is that we are forced to
place some trust in our fellowman in
municipal affairs as well as in com
mercial transactions.
The facts and figures submitted on
the front of this issue, in our estima-
ton, cover the points involved in the
question so thoroughly that there
seems little need to say more. The
better element Of Tonopah, however,
stands solidly for incorporation, and
this means that it has the appoval Of
nearly everyone.

JOURNALISTIC NIoBIsS.

Since the reelection Of Mayor
Schmitz IN san Francisco, the news.
papers Of that city have been busy
explaining how it happened. Sehmltz
was elected despite the opposition OF
every paper in town except the Tx.
aminer, which lent an enforced sup
port To Lane without daring to
display anything more commital than
neutrality where Schmitz was con.
cerned Now that it is all over, the
papers are most lachrymose in their
explanations. The Chronicle sobs
that Lane should never have divided
the respectable vote by running, and
the Bulletin thinks that Croker is
responsible for the perpetuation of
what it terms unionism's tyranny.
Really it seems that these journals
are taking themselves too seriously,
for, with one accord, they will pro-
coed to pilfer the party in power, no
matter which party it may be.

CLAIM AND LOCATION.

As the season q the year has ar.
rived when much assessment work
must Of necessity be done on mining
locations, 10 secure possessory right
through the year 1904, itmay be inter
esting TO note the meaning in law Of
the words claim and location. There is
an essential difference between claim
and location-at least in a legal
sense, as applied to mining property,
prior to patent. The word claim, as
used in the federal statutes, is qp-
plicable to single location or to a
group of contiguous locations. If the
miner makes a single location, it
constitutes his "claim," and in this
case there is no essential difference
between location and claim; but if he
subsequently buys an adjoining I'M
patented location on either side of his
original discovery location, the three
locations then constitute his claim;
but in such case he assumes the re-
sponsibilities of the locators of the
two adjoining locations, and he must
perform the annual assessment work
for the three claims as tFol gh they
were still separate, though it is
optional whether he do the work on
a single location for the benefit of all,
or do the necessary amount on each
location. Mining & Scientific Press.

 tanCe From Nome.

Capt. John Rosene, manager of the Northeastern Siberia Company, re turned last Thursday on the Manuense, With him on the trip were T, L. Greene and Mr. Trimble. They were on tour of inspection of all the company's sta tions.
 The Manuense left Nome about the middle of July and made a pleasant and entirely satisfactory trip. The com pany is making progress in it's mining ventures and it's trading concessions with the natives. The mineral re- sources of Siberia are being carefully and systematically Investigated. It is found that there are immense coal beds near Barankof bay, coal enough to sup ply Alaska for the next dozen centuries. Let us hope. Siberia is doubtless rich in every form of minerals and the large beds of coal will help some in the de- velopment Of the country. The catch ing and salting of fish at Barankof bay keeps @ men busy. Over a thousand tons of fish will be salted during the season.

The next three years the company will pay over all net earnings.
 For the remainder of the life Of the lease the company will pay the govern ment , per cent. on the gross cost of the section. The government will su- pcrvise the building of the line, but the company will probably do the work.
 From Winnipeg to the Pacific the company must build the line within seven years. The government will guarantee D per cent. of the cost Of construction up to $l3,000 a mile on the prairie section and s30 eco mile on the mountain section.
 The government will hold q first mortgage on the line between Winni- peg and the Pacific as security of its guarantee, and the Grand Trunk will guarantee the bonds of the Grand Trunk Pacific for it's proportion of the cost of the section. The company will have running privileges over the Inter Colonial.
 All companies will have running priv ileges between MonctOn and Winnipeg, subject to the company ; terms. un' routed traffic in the winter must go tC St John and Halifax at Portland rates
 The company must deposit in sixty days 5000, 000 as security for the ful fllment of tho contract. The money will be released on the building of the 1 final section.
 Sir Wilfrid Laurier spoke at lengtl in explanation of the project. He saic the road will be built through the mari time province that Il Canadian port might be opened on the seaboard tt render Canada independent should tho 1 United States at any time stop the bonding privileges. The best way, saic the premier, to remain friendly witt the United States, is ta be independent commercially. ,Sf
