UNSATISFACTORY REPORT
ON VERTICAL SIDE LINE
Ouponents Of Vicious Apex Law Are
Sidetracked by Foxy Mine
Owners

The report of the committee on the
vertical side line law commonly re-
ferred to as the apex law, at the recent
session of the American mining con-
gress recommends some very radical
changes in the federal mining laws
The recommendation embodies let
alone policy as regards the owners OF
mining claims under the act of 1872
declaring that they should get together
and settle their troubles. But for the
future it recommends that the law
governing locations be changed so that
all mineral locations shall be made
along the same lines as now govern
placer locations, and without extra
lateral rights; that every owner OF a
claim shall be compelled to perform
the annual assessment work now pro-
vided, and that at the end OF hVe
years, when he shall, presumably
have performed $500 worth or work on
each claim. he be compelled to survey
and natent his land. No discovery OF
a lode or vein in place shall be neces-,
sary in order to make a valid mineral
location, as at present, and no one
shall be permitted to relocate claim
within sixty days after his former To-
cation expires. Assessment work is 10
be performed during the first calendar
year. instead of during the year fol-
lowing location. A..
While the recommendations of the
committee were accepted by the con-
gress. mining men who have oeen
urging the repeal of the apex law are
not satisfied, and the fight for tne
reneaI of this legislation, which threat%
ems to involve many properties already
located will go ahead.
The committee which made the re-
port was composed of George Ritter,
chairman, and J. w. Knight of Utah
and w. H. Webber of Fairview, Ne
vada. all representing wealthy and
powerful mining interests that Woula

Through the courtesy of the Los An
geles Mining Review, The Herald is en-
abled to publish the following interest
ing article, which was written for the
Review by Robert Lanka, capaple
mining engineer who is chief OF the
staff of E. A. Montgomery.
Mr.. Lanka recently returned from a
two months journey through the coun-
try of which he writes, and which is
attracting the attention of mining men
because of the fact that the extension
of the railroads through the west coun-
try is opening up mineral sections that
hitherto have been inaccessible.

Mrs. Chas. Kilgore has been very

Ed Lockwood is on the sick list this
week.
Two little children of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lockwood fell in a tub Of hot mush
Saturday. One of them fell in head
first and was seriously burned about
the head and face, and the other only
got its hands burned. Mrs. Lockwood
was cooking some feed for hogs and
had put it in tub, and the children
we're playing around it and accidental
ly fell into it.

few days last week.

Oscar Vanwinkle shot himself in the
lungs last week while under the intiu-
ence of whiskey. Not long since a
Mr.. Davis in the valley shot his wife
and instantly killed her while drink
ing. Thousands of incidents like
these happen daily all over the coun-
try. A young man at Murfreesboro
killed his hunting companion last
Spring while hunting on Stones riv-
er. No doubt the boys were drinking.
Now he has to serve twenty years in
the penitentiary. The young man is
only IS or 1S years old, but probably
he will never live to be free again to
enjoy life among his friends and rela
tives. Few men live to put up so long
term in the ren at hard work ant
exposure that befalls them, so take
warning, young men and don't take
to the drink habit.

HOG MEAT EXPENSIVE

The Memphis Commercial Appeal
has little block in its columns daily
which is filled with concentrated ad-
vice to farmers written by a practical
farmer, who owns his acres and knows
what he is talking about. We repro
duce a sample article on raising hogs,
which is extremely pointed. All the
articles published in the Commercial
Appeal so far are as practical as this
one is. and no doubt will have great
weight in waking up the farmers of
the south from their lethargy.
The following is the article:
Have you raised enough hogs to
make your meat for 1902

during 1909 has brought the highest
prices for many years.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applica ton as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
andthat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con,
dition OF the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumpling sound of
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed deafness is theresult, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nihe cases out OF ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition OF the mucous sur
faces

Mr.. Hills Idea.

James J. Hill, says in a magazine
article that he thinks it would be far
better to build fewer warships and
put the money in experimental schools
for teaching boys agriculture or the
trades That is like Mr.. Hill. He is
above all things developer and thinks
more of developing the country and
developing men than he does of war
and of killing men. We need some
warships and we cannot stop building
them, but it is the easiest thing in the
world to overdo. All the nations of
the earth that have died, have died
from yielding to the desire to have too
great fighting power. There is a
strong effort to have the United States
cultivate its army and navy until it
shall become the burden to us that it
is to England and Germany. We need
an army and we need navy, but Mr..
Hill is right in trying to convince the
nation that it is far better to build
railroads than warships, far better to
develop farmers than man killers.
There is less and less danger all the
time of foreign war, less danger OF
any kind of war. There is always
enough to hang a plea on, for a great
er army or greater navy, like that wal
with Japan, which will never come.
Would that such men rs James J.
Hill could be induced to talk more OF
practical subjects like this. We wan
men to talk down war and talk up in
dustry. Birmingham Ledger.

IF THEY WOULD.

The time for the location of Marion
County's first high school is getting
very close and unless some definite
steps for the advancement of South
Pittsburg's claims are Immediately
taken the plum will have slipped from
the city's grasp. If there is anything
to be done to advance South Pitts
burg's claim it should be done at once.
If our business men would feel the
proper interest in the project of secur-
ing the location of this valuable insti-
tuition in South Pittsburg; if they
could conceive OILY in part the i'm :
mense advantage it would ultimately
be to this city, they would surely
arouse themselves and go to work for
the city's interests. In our opinion it
will only require moderate exertion
and reasonable amount of money to
land this valuable prize here. The
difficulty now is in getting some or
ganiZed, persistent work done in South
Pittsburg's interest. If such men as
Mr.. A. A. Cook, of the First Nation
al Bank, Mayor Wilson, Mr.. S. I.
Haskew, Capt. H. w. Hill, Mr. W. M.
Cameron, Messrs J. and W. j. Lodge
and others who are not penny wise
and pound foolish, would get together
on the proposition and begin work al
once there is hardly any doubt OF
South Pittsburg's landing the prize. -
