The Recording of Mining Locations

The Reno Gazette of January l prints the following: An err
roneous impression has been formed by a great many claim owners
since a recent decision was handed down by the Supreme Court in
regard to recording location certificates. 1t should be understood
that the decision does not in any measure abrogate the necessity of
recording, but is to the effect that it is not an essential condition to
the acquiring of title. 1t is necessary only as a matter of proof,
thus making it the same in effect as the recording of a deed. If
the locator can prove by other means his right to the claim, and that
he has complied with the law in regard to the location work, he can
hold the claim Notwithstanding his failure to record.
The recording of the certificate of location is prima facie evil
dence that the location was properly made and the location work
performed in accordance with the law. If the certificate is not re-
corded the burden of proof falls on the locator to establish his title
to the claim. Neghctng to record is to invite trouble and litigation.
Furthermore it is necessary to record with both the district and
county recorder The wording of the statute in this regard is very
clear and reads as follows:
"Within 80 days of posting the location notice upon the claim,
the locator shall record the claim with the mining district recorder
of the mining district or county in which such claim is situated, by
a location certificate which must contain" etc.

CHEAP AND NOVEL, ICE PLANT
Coal Oil Cans Filled With Water
Turn Out Finished Produet

W. II. Berg and E. L. Mcclure, two
enterprising young men OF Round
Mountain, Nye County, have built an
ice plant about three-quarters of a mile
from that town on what is known as
Shoshone creek and have everything in
readiness to harvest the ice crop the
present Winter. The plan of turning
out the finished product is new as we |
as quite novel. The Round Mountain
Nugget gives the following details as
to how the ice is produced for the mar.
ket:
A series Of wooden racks are built, on
which are set longitudinally about 600
coal oil cans with one Of the sides of
each cut out. A trench has bsen dug
which carries the water into a barrel
when it is thoroughly strained and
filtered before it is put into the perfect
ly cleanssd oil aus. Tue CAM are filed
by means of o City foot one inch hose
which siphons it out of the barrel filter.
As soon as freezing weather sets in
these six hundred cans are filled at
night. The next morning they are
frozen solid and the cake Of ice. which
is just the size of a five gallon oil can,
is turned out of the tin.
These ice blocks are hauled into town
and stored in the heat proof ice house
which Messrs. Berg and Mcclure had
built a year ago. The capacity of this
building is about 200 tons, and the
owners feel confident that with an
average cold Winter no trouble should
be experienced in filling it.

81 think that the Legislature will dc
its duty when the question Of the
States welfare is squarely before it,
said Assemblyman Q. II. Duborg Of
Beowawe, Eureka County, to q Gazette
reporter in Reno on Thursday.
Mr.. Duborg has been in Reno for
several days. spending the holidays
with relatives. He is one Of the sound
conservative men of the lower House.
81 know that there are many mem
bers who voted for the Meyer Petit

that they will fight to the last ditch any

Ruby Hill Mines
Are Closed Down

A telegram was received by
Supt. A. P. Mayberry Thursday
afternoon from the head officials
of the company ordering the clos
ing down of the mines of the
Richmond Eureka Company on
Ruby Hill.
Mr.. Mayberry vas interviewed
Friday noon regarding the matter
and stated that up to that time
he had received no further adj
vices regarding the order received
Thursday afternoon.
He further stated that he had
no idea what the future intentions
of the company were in regard
to the length of time operations
on Ruby Hill would remain sus-
pended.
The news Of the suspension OF
work at the company's mines on
Ruby Hill had a very depressing
effect on the business men and
people generally of Eureka, and
the hope was expressed on all
sides that the shutdown would
be only temporary.
About 140 men employed at
the mines are thrown out OF en-
ployment by the close-down, and
no doubt the men employed on
the E. & p. ore trains will be
laid of.
Owing to the fact that a sys-
tematic closing down of mines
prevails all over the Coast at this
time, it is quite likely the men
affected here will remain until
something definite is ascertained
regarding the duration of time
work will remain suspended in
this section, OIL until more favor
able working conditions open up
on the outside.
