Plea For Nevada Incorporation

Gentlemen. the laws Of the State II
Nevada have been amended in such vie
thai they are most favorable to the in-
corporation OF mining companies under
those laws. The cost is 500 for a 3D..
900, 900 corporation. Why. then, do you
send your fees to the Secretary Of State
of Arizona or South Dakota? Unless
your stockholders are called to attend
au annual meeting at Phoenix. Arizona,
or Deadwood, South Dakota, you are
scarcely living up to what is required
of you in your charter. The only ar
gument that has ever been put for ward
in favor of Incorporating under the
State and Territory above mentioned is
that under their laws you can take your
troubles for hearing to a court Of the
United States. But this does not seem
to us to be a valid reason why the fees
that should be gathered in by the State
of Nevada. for the privilege of doing
business in the State of Nevada. by the
development of Nevada mines. should
be raked in by other States and Terri
tories. -Goldfeld Gossip.

Should Stop Claim Hogging

Should Stop Claim Hogsng
A revision of the Nevada mining
laws, which as at present constituted
are a frightful source of gain to men
who expect to profit from the labor Of
others, is the principal subject before
the State Legislature. Throughout the
mining districts of Nevada hundreds
and thousands of claims are held BY
persons and associations who simply
erect discovery monuments and wait
the result of the work OF legitimate in
spectors who have fled on nearby
claims. If pay dirt is found the min
ing ~Rrafters complete their locations.
aud otherwise they are abandoned. Il
is likely that the proposed revision
will require all boundary monuments
to be erected within ten days after loca.
ton, and that the location work be per-
formed within 80 days instead Of 90 days.
1t is believed that such a law would ef-
fectually put the location hog out of
business. without being detrimental to
the interests of honest p~rospectors. who
are loud in their demands for a reform
