length and then making it impossible
for any one man to locate more than
two claims in a district, would 60 far

the law reads now anyone can take up

can hod them as ong as he does the

far enough to form an idea for myself
as to the basis of division IN authori-
ty between the state and the federal
authorizes. [ have an idea, how
ever, about the method Of federal con-
troll. At present the only place to
reach the interstate commerce commits
sion is at Washington, unless they go
out as they do occasionally to hold
hearings in different parts of the coun-
try.
ssIt seems to me that the commission
ought to establish branch offices or
headquarters in each section of the
country, say one in Chicago, another
in Kansas City, one in the Twin
Cities, and so on in different parts OF
the country. Complaints from this sec
ton could be presented to the COM
missions representative here. Being
in local touch, he could report intelli-
gently to the commission, giving it
better knowledge of conditions in sec

giving the people more direct cemmun-
ication with the federal authorities.
