The Term Lake Copper

The term Lake Copper" came in to use to designate the output of the Lake Superior copper district of north
 ern Michigan. Owing to the fact that this Michigan copper was fundamen- tally different in its natural state or occurance from that of most other cop per districts, it was amenable to a process of refining which was different,
 both in operation and in standard of excellence from the methods employed in refining copper from other regions. The consequence was, that this Mich igan product was of somewhat differ ent character and quail ty of copper proc uced elsewhere. The term Lake copper, therefore, in addition to its purely geographic significance soon came to imply particular grade or quality of copper, and it is undoubt- edly in this double sense that the term has been generally used. So long as the actual character of this Michigan copper remained different and distinct

E. Maude came in this morning from the fishing ground camps of Ka- saan and anchored. Last night she went to Port Stewart and this afternoon lowed quite few fishermen to Ka- saan.
 All the fishermen came home from the camp today to spend Sunday in Kasaan. They are doing very well this week. We expect good run next week.
 An old man went out fishing the other day. He was close to hundred years old and he caught the biggest salmon in Alaska. Two fishermen had to help him pull it into his boat.
 The mail boat came in late this af- ternoon. She brought some berry bushes from Metlakahtla to the ladies at Kasaan. Some of the people have commenced to plant potatoes and flow CTS in their gardens.

of the public land by actual bona fide locators. The scheme of using the names of dummy locators in making the location of mining claim for the purpose of securing concealed inter- est in such claim appears to be con- trary to the purpose of the statute; but when this scheme is used to secure an interest in claim for single indi- ,tdual, not only concealed but in ex- cess of the limit of 20 acres, it is plainly in violation of the letter of the lav, and when, as in this case, all the locators had knowledge of the concealed intreests and were parties to the transaction, it renders the To- cation void.'

It was agreed that although much samller is size than the king, the coho was much more game. About half an hour was required to land one anc during the struggle the fish would break water and jump from F to 15 times. Those caught would average about 12 pounds in weight. and despite the fact that it was the spawning season of the species, herring were invariably found in their stomachs.

Arnold F. George, known through out the interior of Alaska and Yukon as Prof" was a caller at Ketchikan today with the steamer Jefferson.
 The professor is the oldest editor in the country, was the first editor in Dawson, and has mined and journal ized there ever since.
 He goes to the outside world as Yu- kon's representative to the Seattle fair, where, as official lecturer in the Canadian building he will hold forth daily, seeking to dispel the erroneous ideas prevalent in the world of the great riches of the interior being ex- h austed, and the climatic conditions in tolera ble. He insists that Klon- dike's history is not in the past; that it improves every day that the out put increases, while new discoveries made the last winter insures this fam ous old placer camp future not a bit less brilliant than the past. Dawson is full of men, and work has been slow about opening up, but big things are to be done by the Gug- genheims this summer.

Dummy Locators Frauds

A case of great, interest, bearing especially upon Alaskan conditions, but also touching fradulent prac- tice widely prevalent in the western United States has recently been decid- ed by the U. s. Circuit Court of Appeal, 9th Circuit Cook v Klonos, 165 Fed, 529, Oct. 0S), on appeal from Alaska.
 The United States Mining Statutes authorize two or more persons to jointly locate placer claims. No such location will include more than 20 acres for each individual claimant, and cannot exceed loo acres, in which case an association of at least eight locators is required. Such an associa- tion claim of 160 acres was located in Alaska in the name of eigtht locators, SIX Ol WuUH W6Tc dUScJb anu TcSlO6uLs of Ohio. and prior to making the loca- tion it was understood that Branett, who held powers of attorney from the absent locators, and who was not him. self locator, was to receive half of their interest," or the equivalent of 60 acres. The Court of Appeals held that this understanding entered into the act of entry and location, rendering it fraudulent and void as against the United States. It is interesting to note the following language of the Court : "The mineral land laws of the United States are extremely liberal in the re- quirements under which possessory rights may be acquired. The few re- strictions imposed are only intended to prevent the primary location and accumulation of large tracts of land by few persons, and to encourage the exploration of mineral resources
