ON CHASE
ARE MAKING MONEY

I"enty-three miners are leasing in
various parts of the Chase mine and
according to reports all of these are
DONG well. Some are averaging $3.50
per month, while others are making
as hiea as s250.00 a month.
John Manuel & Co., on the 500
foot level shipped a 15-ton lot to
the sampler this week and expect it
to go four ounces to the ton. The
stuff panned well. Manuel &Co., have
been getting out good ore right along
and have a splendid piece of ground
between the 400 and 5OO-foot levels.
Barte!eni brothers, working in the
500, are getting out a shipment
which they anticipate will run around
four ounces. Their last shipment
went Sla ounces. They are figuring
on getting lease on the 600 and
extend this level to undercut the
shoot they have opened up in the
level above. This will give them ex-
tensive stopping ground. The 900 is in
93 feet and will have to be extend
ed about 2S5 feet. The dead work
the Barteleni brothers would have to
do would be costly but once they
got into the ore shoot they surely
would be handsomely rewarded for
their work
John Smith and John German have
lease in the S0-foot level. They are
in 81 feet and have started cross
cut south to catch the Bosom Plume
vein. They have rich ore in a raise,
a shipment of which last month netted
them $4,000 a ton. They are now
Stopping on a good body of ore that
will average 21s ounces to the ton.

with the issue Of q patent. The best
evidence Is the assay value OF the
rock found on the property, Because
y property has well-defined vein
and the adjacent ground has nothing
should not entitle the locator of the
adjacent property to n patent The
locator of such claim may have
the right to his location till he can
prove he has mineral. That is. he
has merely locators right, no more.
In the matter of timber. A location
of n mining claim where there is no
timber. the locator OF such claim
should be permitted to take up a
claim nearest to his mineral loca-
ton. but 1t should be SO designated
and to be no larger than the ground
located for mineral.
Probably the organization Of com.
mission could result in much good
provided 1t work unselfishly and for
the best interests Of the miner.

REVISION OF THE MINING LAWS.

Some one must have plan Of
some sort likely to overturn existing
conditions concerning mining, for it
has come out at Washington that
Secretary Fisher has been consulted
as well as others in relation to pos
sible revision OF the federal laws
controlling metalliferous mining. That
the subject has been broachcd is evil
dent that some sort of plan exists
for the betterment Of conditions per-
tanning to mining for the precious
metals. To bring about any practical
change it was suggested commits
sion be appointed of mining experts
who will take testimony in various
mining districts OF the west. which
will make q report to the president,
suggesting a general revision of the
mining laws to suit existing condi-
tions.
There is nothing specific about
this If there is anything back Of it,
other than to give a number of men
good places at government expense,
it has not come out. II there are any
wise enough to improve on existing
conditions. they must be pretty clev-
er. OF course they can draw inspir-
alton from laws adopted from other
countries. Canadian mining laws
have some good features. Old Mex
leo mining laws are not all alike.
Every country has system Of its
own. Had these been applicable to
this country they would have been
adopted long ere this. The present
laws have worked no hardship, ex-
cept 1t be the law Of the apex, which
is a species Of robbery that gives
lawyers fat fees in taking an inno-
cent mans property away from him
and giving 1t to another. Every man
should be limited to what he finds
within his location. II his claim is
on the side Of hill. he can have
only what he finds within the con-
fines Of his claim going into the hill.
horizontally. II his property lies flat,
he is to be entitled to that which he
tihuo W Sihhih6 pSA pShuSSuioii ~ ~
there are properties adjoining be-
longing to others. even though a first
location, the first locator should have
no right to any mineral found on
the adjacent property. In fact every
locator should be entitled to that
which he may find on his property
only. To go beyond his end or side
lines should be called trespass and
a law enacted governing that.
II the wise ones take up this sub
ject and have the apex law elimin-
ated they will confer a great amount
OF benefit on the mining industry.
Another improvement would be one
which would prevent a locator run
ming his lines across that OF anoth-
er. 1t should be made trespass to
survey across a claim that has been
located. The adjoining property must
stop at the side or end lines OF the
prior location.
Further. mineral should be defined
For intsance: II 1t is an iron prop
erty, It should be so designated. In
order to secure patent, reputable

tion papers. II 1t Is a silver. gold or
