A FEW POINTERS ON LOCATING
CLAIMS

by 600 feet. Contentious arise daily
because of the failure to correctly
measure the distances, and the sooner
some law is enacted which will settle
all uncertainties, the better for all
concerned. The writer had experience
in one of the mining districts of Neva-
da wherein the result of pacing across
a clam in the center of which was a
deep canyon, amounted to a shortage
of 1872 feet, and as the stone monu-
ments designating the corners were
erected, there was no recourse. but an
other party considered that the monu-
ments erected governed the boundaries
of the claim, located a fraction and
placed his monument and did his loca-
ton work, the consequence being that
the original locator lost what would
have been his property had he survey
ed his claim at the time of location.
| would therefore suggest that some
law be passed by the Legislature to
the effect mat when a monument is
erected, the boundaries of the claim be
surveyed, not only for the benefit of
the subsequent locators, but as for the
original locator himself.
Another point of uncertainty is that
locations are made designated as run
ming, for instance, "~northeasterly and
southwesterly' until the survey is
made, in which the locator defines the
course in which he wishes to have the
claim surveyed, the subsequent locat-
rors are in a quandry as to whether
they will lose a portion of their claim
or not. The subsequent locator To-
Gates in good faith and by reason Of
the survey swinging between north
and east, as a course, the surrounding
locators have to take what is left.
If the urvey were established at the
time of locations by course and dis
lance all these uncertainties would be
removed. There seems to be various
interpretations as to the limitation
from north and east on a locatoion
notice stating northeasterly. But L
consider that a northeasterly course
includes any point between north and
east. in which case great latitude is
given the locator, and as long as his
location work is completed within the

OBSERVATION IN MATTERS
OF LOCATING CLAIMS
(By Geo. d. James, E. M. in the
Vernon Miner.)

(By Geo. D. James, E. M. in the
Vernon Miner.)
The urgent necessity at the present
time is that when locations are made
they should be surveyed, in order that
others who take up adjoining ground
may know wherein their boundaries
can be located. Location monuments
are placed promiscuously throughout
the various districts, with the evident
intention of securing all claims pos
sible. In some eases the location work
is completed, in others no work is
lone within the 80 days prescribed by
law hence the locations are invalid or
forfeited. No corners are established,
much less surveys made. 1t follows
that while a subsequent locator may
desire to have his claims surveyed, on
account of the prior l~ocators stands
the chance and probability of losing
some Of his ground. A rule should
therefore be established, and a law
passed. that when the location monu-
ment is erected, the locator should le-
' ne MS h"punu3TieS permanently. IulS
would obviate a great deal of trouble,
contention and uncertainty. At pres
eat corners, in the shape of stone mon
uments, are erected, though pacing off
roughly the 1900 by 600 feet. In
many eases, on account of the steep
slop'ng ground. some distances are
short, while in other cases, because
some claim owners add from one and
one-half to twice the paced distance,
the size of the claim is irregular and
unsatisfactory.
1t is not appreciated in many dis
tances that the horizontal distance
governs and not the slope distance.
As an illustration, 2 locator walks
down a steep canyon to the gulch and
up to the other side, pacing as he goes,
and when he comes to the required dis
lance erects a monument. which mon
ument must necessarily govern wheth-
err the distance prescribed by law or
otherwise. If he is beyond his limit,
when a survey is made he can only
erect his posts at the end of the 1900

.MANsLAUGHTER THE CHARGE
Continued from page ~

No. &c, while the latter was standing
at the Terra Gotta station, have been
indicted for manslaughter. 1t is
charged they negligently ran by the
block signals, which it was their duty
to notice and obey. This alleged negli
gence, it is charged in the indictment,
caused the death of more than SO per-
sons
Attorney Henry E. Davis outlined to
reporter the defense which will be
made at the trial. He will claim he
said, that the defendants obeyed all
signals placed and that the fault lay
with the operators at Silver Spring
and Takoma Park. He will contend
that the local was behind time, and
according to its schedule, which the
defendants had no reason to suppose
was not being followed, should have
been in Washington. When, therefore,
they were allowed to enter the block
at Silver Spring and found Takoma
station dark, as it should have been
at that time, they were justified in
supposing the block to be clear.
