How They Tide Country Over Per-
iods of Commercial Inactivity.
VALUES ARE THE SAME
Century of Present Activity Cannot De-
plete the Reserves Of Wealth.

The value Of mining property
as an estate is as yet not recog-
nized by investors generally.
The fact that the resources of a
mine are practically inexhaustible
is seldom weighed in the determi--
nation of purchase. How much can
mine be made to yield at a profit
under present conditions and how
quickly can it be done, is the
whole question.
1t is natural that such should
be the case in the early days of
the settlement of any country
whether it be farming or mining
says Inaho Springs Mining Ca
zette. But succeeding that comes
a settled period when real prop
erty takes on a character of sub
stantial and permanent value in
the community which becomes
established for all time.
Such a consideration should
now attach to mining property.
! The industry and the communities
are established for all time
There is work for generations to
unearth the mineral values of the
mountains of Idaho Springs dis
trict or any of the mineral fieldes
of similar structure.
1t is not conceivable that
, century of such activity as even
now prevails or can be aroused
: can in any great measure deplete
r the reserves of wealth. Where
there are now feet of mining
passages there may be miles yet
. lug and yet not all the ore taken.
So far as human reasoning can
reach there is no end to the
stores. History will no doubt
d repeat itself in alternate scales
G Where mining has better advant-
q ages and then yield to other in
V lustries, but the precious metals
g will always be precious.
9 Periods of wars, famine and
I, distress will call again as in the
v past for larger use of the money
# metals and the minerals that re-
e present the most stable values.
e In the ages to come the prosper
Gus business men and land hold
ers will find in times Of distress
,e the mines a source Of revenue
ID and a field Of labor that is unaf-
.t fected by any disorders and that
st is at its best when the more COM
mon avenues of trade are con-
gested or disorganized.
There are some far sighted
men who are engaged in creating
- an estate of mineral ground and
holding it for the solid and GER
- tain values that belong to them.
= Such are of little present value in
.o the growth and upbuilding of the
- country. But even those prop
: critics that are worked most ex-
! haustively still retain the estate
-, value. None of them by any
- method yet applied has more thar

What the Law Provides for the
Protection of Locators.
HOW TO DO THE WORK
Tunnels Give Right to Lodes on Line
for Three Thousand Feet.
Denver Mining Reporter: The

Denver Mining Reporter: The
necessity Of protecting the run
ming of a tunnel for the discovery
of blind lodes or veins is clearly
recognized and amply provided
for in the statutes. In the alb
sence of state statutes or district
rules defining the matter of To-
eating or recording tunnel claims,
the general custom which is al
most universal, governing their
location must prevail. This,
briefly stated, is similar to the
acts required to locate lode or
vein, namely, the posting of
notice of claim and recording the
tunnel location, where recording
is made necessary, with a descrip-
ton of it's mouth or face with re-
ference to some natural object or
permanent monument.
IN addition to the location of
the tunnel claim, each lode or
vein claimed, when discovered in
the tunnel, must be located by
posting a notice and recording it,
where recording is necessary, the
same as if discovered on the sur
face. But the location need not
be made on the surface; it is suf-
ficient to post the notice at the
mouth of the tunnel.
The statute provides that where
a tunnel is run for the develop
ment of vein or lode, or for the
discovery of mines, the owners
of such tunnel shall have the
right of possession Of all veins or
lodes within three thousand feet
from the face of such tunnel on
the line thereof, not previously
known to exist, discovered in
such tunnel, to the same extent
as if discovered from the surface;
and locations on the line of such
tunnel of veins or lodges not ap-
pearing on the surface, made by
other parties after the commence
ment of the tunnel, and while
the same is being prosecuted with
reasonable diligence, shall be
invalid; but failure to prosecute
the work on the tunnel for siz
months shall be considered as al
abandonment of the right to al
undiscovered veins on the line o.
such tunnel. The right to locate
claim in respect to the vein
however, does not accrue unit
the discovery of the vein, bu
when the discovery is made thu
right relates back to the com
mencement of the tunnel. Th'
location may be made of part O
the 1,5OO feet on one side of tn
tunnel and the residue on tn
other side, in such proportions a
the locator may desire, or he ma.
locate the full length of 800 fee
entirely on one side of the tunne
The term reasonable diligenc
as employed in the statute is sig
nifcant as controlling tunne
claimants S rights. Itrequires tn
utmost good faith. No mere pei
functory work will satisfy tn
statute. 1t fixes six months fal
ure as a conclusive evidence
abandonment. But this does nc
permit the claimant to hold hi
tunnel by merely doing a fey
days work in each six months
he must prosecute it with a
reasonable diligence.

SPOKANE PARTIES BOND
THE MADRID FOR $50, 900

have been exchanged, leads this paper
to give the facts and leave the rest to
the imagination and judgment of the
reader.
The bond is said to require the work
to be started in 80 days, or, more def
nitely, by June goth.
Madrid Has a Promise.
Possibly it is not the worth of the
Madrid alone that causes the property
to sell for such high sum as reported,
but it probably is its location and sur
roundings that make it look good to the
investors. The big Buster, which is
practically sale, has enhanced the
value of all properties on upper Ameri-
can river, and the Madrid is one of the
most promising prospects.

$4,000 WILL
BE CLEANUP
Owners of Golden Rule Placer
Expect That Big Output
This Season.

The new Smile ditch on the Golden
and nice, shiney particles of gold, Coarse
and fine, are percolating down into the
sluice boxes on upper American river
in such fashion that to Bosch, Tiedeman
and Crisman their period for work is
one long, sweet dream. The wheat
grower and the farmer sit on the front
porch, and smoke and smile at the pat
ter of the rain; the owners of the 300
acre Golden Rule placer don their mack
inaws and splash out into the wet, and
smile anyhow just can help it be-
cause the smile is there for they let the
river do the work, and the rain is of no
more use to them than a thimble
full of water would be to caravan on
the desert of Sahara.
The joy at the Golden Rule camp
took possession of the owners the first
of the week, Immediately following the
first cleanup of one sluice box, after
piping for ten days. Frank Bosh, who
came in Wednesday morning to ship the
precious stuff, was so excited that it
was not learned for some time just
what had happened up on American
river. Before that DR.. Shinnick was
off on his f1eet-footed steed, and in a
jiffy the Mining News scribe had ap-
propriated horse and was in pursuit.
The scribe overlook the doctor just be-
fore he reached the diggings, 8 miles
from town, his horse cantering along
and the doctor not the least excited.
We learned that 'doc" was just max
ing an accustomed professional CALL
Grit Made the Golden Rule.
''In the five years we have owned the
placer we are convinced that mining
more than any other business we have
ever been engaged in, requires big
fund of grit and determination if sue
cess is to crown the efforts" said Mr.
Tiedeman as he stood at the butt of ;
giant and played the water on the loos'
gravel near the bedrock, which sup
ported an embanlSment thirty feet high
"a year ago our money was gone ant
we were willing to make great sacrific
to get the ditch completed. We offere
men with means big shares if the
would furnish the money. Now we ar
glad that we exerted ourselves littl
more,'' said Mr.. Tiedeman, reflectively
and twinkle in his eye, "for in thirt
l days we will take enough gold out @
those boxes down yonder to replace tn
: 10000 we spent on the ditch, and tn
{ mine will be ours"
n Expect $50, 900 Cleanup.

capable to judge, to be one of the top
notcher properties in this section of
country; there are such strong indica-
tions of permanency to it that number
of good mining men who have inspected
the Snowstorm say it is one of the
strongest leads they have ever seen.
Besides the value of the Snowstorm
from the producing point of view, it
has the best power site in the Elk
basin.
Ore values in the Snowstorm run
high for a property so larges Gold,
copper and silver are the principal
metals. Assays run: gold, average,
$72. Is big per cent in copper and silver
The Snowstorm group consists of six
claims, one of which is placer, and the
property lies on both sides of Red river
The development consists of open cuts,
three short shafts, two crosscuts, a
tunnel and a sump. The tunnel can
gam depth of three hundred feet at
400 feet.
VIII Sink and Drift
The Pittock boys, who will have
charge of the development work, will
sink shaft and drift on the ledge from
the crosscut where Mr.. Coverly discov-
cred his rich milling ore early il
the winter.

it was learned that the owners expect
the season cleanup will reach at least
$500
