"SECTION 4l''
EXPLAINED

Some weeks ago a dispatch was
the appearance of a bulletin from
tle forestry Office at Ogden and was
widely copied in this state.
This dispatch referred to Section
IL of the mining regulations adopted
by the L. S. Commissioner of Land
Office and seems to have been an
meaning Of the paragraph
The Appeal is indebted TO Receiver
Tarl w. fremont, OF the Nevada
Federal Land Office, for the follow
ing communication to him in regard
to that dispatch which communica-
ton is self explanatory.
Department of the Interior
General Land Office
Washington, D. c.
June IL, 1909.
Registers and Receivers,
u. S. Land Offices
Sirs: The attention of the Depart
ment has been called to the last
clause OF paragraph II OF the mining
regulations. approved March %, 1909,
which provides as follows:
The vein or lode must be full
~ described, the description to
include a statement as to the
kinu and character Of mineral,
the extent thereof, whether ore
has been extracted and of what
amount and value and such 9TH
er facts as will support the ap-
plicants allegation that the claim
contains a valuable mineral de
pOsit."
1t seems that the expression. the
extent thereof is being construed as
meaning that the applicant must al
irmativeiy show by proof OF eNplor-
alton that the vein exists in fact
throughout the whOle length of the
claim.
This construction on the paragraph
is erroneous. BY the words quoted
it was intended to require the claim
ant to show the existence OF vein
in such workings as he relied on to
establish discovery. BY the eX.
tent of the vein was meant its
size and quality as disclosed. That
being done, the presumption exists
that tle vein extends on lis strike
throughout the whole length Of the
claim as located.
The sole purpose Of that part of
para graph IL quoted was to enable
the land department TO know, SO far
as the applicant can reasonably show
the definite facts upon which the rigll
to the patent is predicted so as to
determine whether valuable min
eral deposit exists in the lend claim
ed.

The Meeting Of the Regular
County Commissioners


The regular board OF county commits
sioners held its first meeting on Monday,
February l. The following appoint
ments were made: County attorney, B.
c. HilIiard; road overseer, G. b. Hollems.
The county was divided into two health
districts. DR.. Rogers OF Kiowa being ap-
pointed physician for the north district
and DIR. White Of Mattison for the south
district. The county printing was diyid-
ed between The Tribune at Elbert and
the Banner at Elizabeth.
There seems to be two boards Of com
missioners in Ebert county and we
ought to be able to have the business Of
our county transacted in an up-to-date
way. Anyway. Elbert county can boast
of being the only county in the state
that can afford two boards.
o. January IA the irregular board,
composed OF one member, Horace E.
Brooks, thought he would like to have
meeting all by his lonesome and before
he adjourned he saw fit (acting in the
governors place., to appoint another
commissioner, Olotf Olson, who has been
! a county commissioner since the May
flower landed in Kiowa. The board, act
ing on the advice Of some political
friends, appointed Henry Trowbridge
county attorney. Mr. Trowbridge was
defeated last election by j. E. Ferguson
for attorney for this district. The prin-
cipal cause OF his defeat was seemingly
difficulties concerning money matters
which arose while he was acting as dis.
trict attorney. The irregular board, we
understand, will hold their second irreg-
ular session on the 23d OF this month
On election day the people of Elbert
county elected Emil Pauls county com
missioner, but the irregulars saw tit, ow-
ing to the absence of Mr.. Pauls on ac-
count of sickness and death in his fami-
ly, to declare his Office vacant and
appoint Oloff Olson in his stead. The
people at large take this as an imposi-
ton for supposedly intelligent and re-
spectacle body OF men to take advantage
Of another's misfortune.
At the meeting of the regular board,
held on Monday, one of the newly elect
ed commissioners was absent and the
supposition is that he claims he is
member Of the second or irregular board.
We are at a loss to understand from
whom the irregulars draw their pay,
whether from the regulars or from them
selves. II they are worrying or losing
sleep regarding their pay subscription
should be started for their benefit while
in session and circulated among those
most interested.
Elbert county has been noted for its
clean politics up to the present time. but
it seems as though we have fallen in line
with other sections Of the state.
II the irregulars are desirous Of bust
ness at their next meeting Elbert pre-
cinct would like for them to appoint a
justice Of the peace and a constable at
Elbert.
