Mr.. Wiev's great desire 10 get the bill
up in the full committee is indicative of
mis- belief that when the thing comes TO
a matter OF record. the members Of the
committee VIII not 20 on record as op-
posing the bill. AS long as nobody agi-
tstes the question, some members OF the
committee are content TO leave Ii alone.
But. once the subject is made an issue
the committee will IL is believed. see
the necessity for acting on the measure.
A member Of the committee was heard
70 say today that it would take some
good reason. not yet brought forward
10 keep him from voting for the pro-
posed reform.
Other members of the body take the
view that the two street car companies
enjoy hard and fast monopoly of the
street car business In this city that
they make enormous profits every year
and that IL would not cost them much
10 give their patrons the benefits OF the
universal transfer system.
The indications are that if the bill is
gotten out of committee the House vii

What Constitutes MiRiHg Partner
 ShinS

Where two or more persons own mine jointly, or as tenants in common, there may arise between them without special contract for that purpose, the relation of partners. This occurs when they enter into an agreement to work the property for their mutual benefit and do work it. contributing to the ex pense and sharing the profits accord ing to the interest owned by each. The leading distinctions between min ing and ordinary commercial partner ships may be considered 10 be of three classes.
 l. The doctrine of implied liability; or the differences existing in the law in regard to the qualified or restricted liability of the partners to third persons resulting from the acts of each other.
 2. The right of one partner to sell his interest or share without the con- sent of any of the other partners. which does not work Q dissolution of the part Dership.
 3. The death of one of the partners does not work 9 dissolution of the part nership
 Upon other points where there are no partnership articles to the contrary, mining associations are governed by the law of ordinary partnerships. unless general mining usages or the establish ed practice of peculiar company have modified the rule. A mining partner ship may exist as well where the par ties have an interest merely in the working of mine or in carrying on mining operations, as where they own the mine itself. What are commonly known as "grubstake" contracts have been held to create mining partner ship with respect to the work ot pros pecting and location. But such ar rangement must exist at the time oi discovery to give joint interest, and if. before making any discovery ol search for mines under his first agree ment, the prospector enters into new arrangement with another party for ar outfit and makes discovery under the last arrangement, the first agreement will be held as abandoned and the one who first staked the prospector cannot share in the discovery.
 So, where the owner of an undevel- oped mine agrees with another person that if the latter will devote his labor and skill in exploring and developing it, he will furnish him tools and provisions and give him a share in the mine if ii proves valuable, joint working of the mine and sharing of the profits by the parties after development will constitute mining partnership. An agreement to engage in the business of prospect ing for and the development of lode mining property for the joint use of all is also in the nature of a partnership agreement, and under if each party becomes the agent of the other. An agreement, however. on the one side 10 perform certain service. and on the other to convey an interest in the prop erty upon which the labor was perform ed, in consideration of the work done does not constitute a partnership. A contract by which a party agrees to su- perintend the driving of tunnel for an interest therein does not constitute him 3 partner with his employers. A sub scription to shares is but an act or dec laratlon of the subscriber to become a

lie, The trustees Of the Upper
Dawson Run school, in behalf Of
the patrons of said school, desire TO
thank. Mr.. Joseph James for the in
terest he has taken and the way he
has labored for the schools advance
ment this winter. He closed the
most successful term Friday that has
been taught in this school for years,
With an exhibition that night. The
program was very interesting, and
was heartily enjoyed and appFeciat-
ed by all that attended.
We are glad to know that we were
successful enough to employ teach
err who had his work at heart and
felt the responsibility that rested on
him as a Teacher. to instruct our
children that were intrusted 10 ms
care. f4
We are sorry 10 say that We. Ike
other trustees, have employed teach
ers that had neither pupils o. pat
rons at. heart. II all our tcachGFs.
took the interest in their scboo.as
Mr.. james does therewould be better
schools and more educated people,
for his whole heart is i'll his work.
We are glad to say that he has not
only taught a successful term of
school, but he has by the aid Of TIE
patrons placed in the school ~
library Of forty-fiye Or fifty Hollms.
He made and presented the school
with nice glass front bookcase,
which We are very thankful for, and
placed 4 large and beautiful FLAG
above the school house. Both pat
rons aud pupils, heartily request that
we, the trustees, employ Mr.. James
for the next term. For the school
got along so nicely this winter. not
one OF the patrons but what was well
pleased.
Why cannot all teachers leave such
record at the close of their term?
Simply because they have not got
either patrons or pupils at heart
they are after the money.
