SIXTY DAYS AND NO MORE

The 60 days in which a locator must do his work begins to run from the date of the discovery of mineral and posting his discovery notice; and a locator cannot ex- tend his time to do his work by changing the date on his discovery stake, or by renewing his notice of discovery. There cannot be two discoveries of the same thing by the same person, and the law having fixed the time in which the work must be performed. the loca tor has no power or authority t' extend or enlarge that period fo, his own convenience. If the dis covery shaft IS not completed with in the allotted time, it is mere folly to pull down the old notice and put up another of later date, as the 60 days begins to run from the date of discovery, and no self serving act of the locator can enlarge the time. The exact rule may be stated thus: The locator is not permitted to re enter and oust himself, predicating such re- entry and to custer on his own de- linquency, and permitting him to re enter and reoust himself period ically to save the necessity of de- veloping his claim. To permit tn. i original locator the power within himself to make effectual forfeit ure arising from his own delin- quency by perfecting a relocation is to place in his hands the extra ordinary privilege of holding min eral lands perpetually without do ing any location work whatever Ingemarson ".

 The evil of foul stomach is not alone the bad taste in the mouth and the f"nl breath caused by it. but the corruption nf the pure current of blood and the dissem- ination of disease throughout the body. Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes the sour and foul stomach sweet It. does for the stomach what the washing and sun bath do for the echurn-absolutely removes every tainting or corrupting ela- ment. In this way it cures blOtches. pimpleS ernptions. scrofulons swellings, sOreS open eating ulcers and U humors or diseases arising from bad blood
 If you have bitter. nasty. foul taste in your mouth. coated tongue. foul breath, are weak and easily tired, feel depressed and despOndent, have frequent headaches. dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom- ach cOnStipated or irregular bowels, sour or bitter risings after eating and poor appetite, these symptoms, or any consider able number of them, indicate that yon ara suffering from biliouSneSS. torpid or lazy liver with the usual accompanying indi gestion. or dyspepsia and their attendant Arrangements.

Legislation Needed

Oklahoma's house of representa- tives. having passed bill prohibit ing short sheets and cracked dishes at hotels, our facetious contempor ary, the Railway and Engineering Review, suggests other ills of life that require legislation-fies in the bedroom, bedbugs. noise in the halls, and cockroaches in the food When railroads put down rates for excursions, it is argued, the hotels ought not to be allowed to put up the prices of desirable rooms or say that rooms at advertised rates are "all taken" Amussments, it Is held, also call for paternal legisla- ton. The age of jokes. the beauty of actresses and the quality of dances ought to be regulated. The length of a skirt needs dietation as much as that of sheet. Our con- temporary suggests that standard skirt should be prescribed, with a tariff of thirty cents for every inch short of the normal. Now that trusts, railways and hotel sheets have been fully regulated, other mighty deeds are expected.

Makes Freak Request.

Many freak requests are made or Governor Pindall and his secretary, Paul Little, but perhaps none ever came up to the request put to MT Little Saturday, when young woman called at the executive office and ask ed for a divorce from her present hus- band, whom she alleges has another wife in another part of the country The woman in question believed that the executive had the power to grant her a full divorce, and was surprised to learn that he had no such power. Secretary Little almost daily receives letters from over the state asking the governor to grant the writers the right to carry pistols and guns.

Because of this the man. ager of a skating rink presented broth- CT with a season pass. Sister who had attained the tremendous age of 20 was truly flattered when brother asked her, rather than some of the younger belles of his acquaintance, to share the privileges of that skating rink pass. But brothers explanation removed all danger of the immediate growth of sisters vanity. You see" he told her with frank simplicity, I'm not used to skating with girls. I'll practice on you for month or two, and then when 1 can do it real well I'll ask some of the other girls

Books Are Rotting.

pile of wreckage in the nature of moth-eaten and rotted-out old state record reposed in stately dignity Sat urday in the middle of the floor of the office of State Printing Clerk Earl Hodges. There was nothing left of the book whatever but the binding, the leaves having rotted away and left a sticky. mouldy mess. The wreckage was viewed by many state officials during the day and the sight of it brought forth anew the question as to what can be done with the state house records and books, all of which are rapidly rotting away and for which there is no suitable storing place. The secretary of states library is stored in a room on the first floor of the state house, in the southwest corner. The room is no longer a suitable place for the storage of the books, as they are tuoth-eaten and rapidly rotting away from dampness. It is very probable that the books will be moved out to the old penitentiary hospital building on the new state house grounds, in which some of the states records and books ere already stored, pending the completion of the new state capitol. Many of the old records in the state auditors office are badly routed. They are practically ruined, as writing on the leaves of the books can no longer be read. The Supreme Court library is still in good shape It could not be moved anyhow until the Supreme Court is ready to be moved into the new state capitol, as the justices have constant need for all the books in the library.

Rio Janeiro-There were further cevelopmentt Monday, according to the local police, to the efforts being made to ascertain the persons re- sponsible for the alleged plot to de stroy part of the American fleet now in this harbor. Several arrests have been made.
 The band which is supposed to have organized the plot is made up of for. eigners. It presumably is composed of five Italians, one Canadian and two Germans. John Fender is one of the Germans. Three of the Italians have been arrested here and it is be lieved that the other members of the band have been taken into custody at Sac Paulo.
 The members of the band counted on the assistance of a Spaniard named Rochero, who has lived in this city for long time. A year ago, however, this man went insane and since then he has been shut up in sanitarium at Montevideo.

Guthrie, Okla.-Charles A. Taylor, state examiner and inspector of ac- counts. has the distinction of being the only state officer of the kind in the entire United States. His is an cleo tive office, too, and he was chosen along with the other state incumbents on September IT last. Only Kentucky has any office in any way similar to that held by MT.

 As this is the only office of the kind in the United States it is necessary
