UNDULY ALARMED.

We do not agree with the Mohave
County Miners Interpretation of the
recent ruling of the U. S. Land Of
ficce denying the application of the
Consolidated Mining company of Utah
for patent on certain alleged mineral
claims. The Miner states in it's last
issue that the application was denied
ION the grounds that the property of
the company has not been developed
to such an extent that it is a produc
ing and paying mine" Continuing,
the Miner says, previous to a severe
criticism of the department officials
for rendering the decision
"The decision simply means that
hereafter, no titles will pass from the
government to the claim holder un-
less it is shown that the property
in question is on producing and pro-
fit-making basis; condition only
attained after years of development
and the expenditure of large
amount of money"
How the Miner can possibly ar
rive at such a conclusion after read
ing the decision is beyond us. 1t ap-
pears that the company making the
application could not show valid dis
covery of a vein or lode of mineral
bearing rock in place. Under such
circumstances the department was
justified in denying patent. The de
cision is as follows:
''It is evident from the record be-
fore the department that the deposits
alleged to have been exposed on these
claims are regarded by the applicant
as possessing practically no economic
value, but that, on the other hand,
title to the claims is sought essential
ly on account of their possible value
for uneXposed deposits suppoS-
ed to exist at considerable depth be-
meath the surface, and having no con-
nection, so far as shown, with any de-
posits appearing on the surface.
'This exposure, however, of sub
stantially worthless deposits on the
surface of claim; the finding of
mere surface indications of mineral
within it's limits; the discovery of
valuable mineral deposits outside the
claim, or reductions from established
geological facts relating to it; one or
all of which matters may reasonably
give rise to hope or belief, how
ever strong it may be,that a valuable
mineral deposit exists within the
claim, will neither suffice as a dis
covery thereon, nor be entitled to be
accepted as the equivalent thereof.
''To constitute valid discovery up
on a claim for which patent is sought
there must be actually and physically
exposed within the limits thereof a
vein or lode of mineral bearing rock
in place, possessing in and of itself
a present or prospective value for
mineral purposes; and before patent
can properly be issued or entry al
lowed thereon, that fact must be
shown in the manner above stated.

Particular stress was laid on the rules
governing the adlnttance into the clubs
of Fulton county residents, the two Wis
itors being anxious to find just how
hard or how easy it Is for a citizen Of
Atlanta to enter club without being a
bona fide member In the case of the
better class organizations, especially
those which have been in existence
since before the prohibition law, they
found that absolutely none butmembers
are admitted, except guests from out
side the county and these only through
courtesy of their friends.
The chief and Councilman Humphrey
announced their intention of visiting
every club in Atlanta, from the Capital
City to the smallest among the 200"
clubs. No notice Of their intention was
sent out, and their arrival at the doors
resulted in a surprise to club members
and managers.

While it is generally understood IN
political circles that Chairman Mason
is not over-en enthusiastic in his support
Of Chief Beavers general reform plans,
the fight on him will probably link the
fortunes of the two men.
The fight on Chairman Mason is
natural outgrowth of the nomination
Of James G.. Woodward for mayor The
long time political enmity between MT
Woodward and Chairman Mason made
the fight between them in the mayoraI-
ty primary one of the most interesting
Of the minor issues. 1t was well known
that the election of Mr.. Woodward
meant vigorous fight against the con-
troll of Chairman Mason over the police

Doctors Say Vice President
Can Survive Only a Few
HourS-NoW in Coma.

UTICA. n. Y. Oct 30.-vice Presi,
dent Sherman this afternoon lapsed
into a state of coma and his death il
expected at any moment.
This was announced this afternoon
about an hour after formal bulletin
from the bedside of the stricken man
stating that his condition was "des-
perate" The last hope that the vice
president might improve at leas,
slightly was shattered at noon when
the involved condition of his kidneys
failed to respond to remedial measures,
and it was announced urameia had laid
deadly hold on the patient.
Hypodermic medication has been en-
ployed throughout the day to ease the
vice presidents sufferings and this,
with the ravages OF Bright's disease,
has produced condition of uncon-
seriousness. Mr.. Sherman may survive
this afternoon or he may die at any
moment.
DR.. Peck issued this formal state
ment at l o'clock this afternoon:
vice President Sherman gradually is
failing. The end probably will come
tonight or tomorrow, or it may be fully
"a hours hence. Mr.. Sherman has been
unconscious practically all of the time
since yesterday afternoon. He went to
sleep at about o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon and has been in a comatose
state since"
At 3:15 p. m, Dr. Peck said Mr.
Sherman was sinking steadily but he
might survive from four to six hours
Mrs. Sherman this afternoon re-
ceived the following message from
President Taft:
Mrs. Taft and l have been great
ly shocked and disturbed to hear
Of the present illness of the vice
president, and l send you this mes
sage of sympathy with the hope
that the symptoms may become
more favorable and your husband
be restored to his friends and his
country.

AuguStanS Pledge Themselves
to Take Stock at Premium
on Par Value.

The Empire Life Insurance Company
of Atlanta, owners Of the Empire Lii.
building in Peachtree street, will II
move its home Offices from Atlanta to
Augusta within the next twelve months
erect a handsome Office building there
for it's headquarters and sell the struc-
ture it now occupies in Atlanta.
In return, leading citizens and CAPT
talists of Augusta promise to subscribe
and pay cash for stock to the value Of
$500, 900 at the current price, which
means a premium on the par value
Augusta is anxious to have the home
offices of a large insurance company
and the subscription of the stock has
virtually been assured
Stockholders of the Empire company
met last night at the home offices in
the Empire Life building and received
formally the proposition submitted by
H C. Loriek and M. H. Stafford, of
Augusta, both directors in the COM
pany. Mr. Lorick is the Augusta agent
of the Empire and one of the live
wires of the organization. Mr.. Stat
ford is third vice president.
When the offer from Augusta men
was submitted the stockholders present
voted unanimously in favor Of accept
ing the proposal and the subscription
for stock will be opened in Augusta ait
once.
THE proposal Is such a favora BILE
one that every stockholder present, and
all were notified, was enthusiastically
in favor of the step" said President
William w. Reid today. "Of course
it will be a year or more before de
tails are completed, a new home found
and the company's offices removed. We
feel that it will be a move of advan-
tage to stockholders and policy hold
ers alike. The purchase Of this large
amount of stock by some of the best
fnanciers of the state is a compliment
to the standing and integrity of the
company that has never been paid be-
fore to any other financial institution
in the South, and one that will of it
self enhance the value Of every share of
stock outstanding in addition to the
Increased value caused by the increa sed
surplus obtained from the premium on
the sale of this large block of stock
For these reasons the directors heartily
recommend the adoption of the neCes-
sary resolutions"
