OUR MINING LAWS

The director of the u. S. Geo.
logical Survey in his report states
that the present mining laws are
Anticipated and says that the
present paralysis Of mining dis
tricts is due to laxity in the en-
forcement of assessment work.
Proposed amendments of the
well-established laws relating to
metaliferous minerals always
raise the warmest discussion.
With the opinion of mining men
in general favoring revision of
mining laws Of the United States
and with commission after com
mission appointed by various
bodies to suggest improvements,
the statutes have remained prac-
tically unchanged for nearly 40
years, while the geology of ore
deposits and the technology Of
metal mining have made marvel
Gus progress.
"Most important, perhaps, in
any amended mining law would
be provision forenforced develop
ment, a principle expressed, it is
true, in the present law but not
made effective in its workings. A
requirement OF actual use as a
condition OF occupancy of min
eral land can not be regarded as
eithernovel orradical. AS regards

PENOBSCOT INDIANS.
Annual Report of Agent George n.
Hunt Was Filed, Thursday.

The annual report of George II.
Hunt, agent OF the Penobscot Tribe of
Indians, was held, Thursday, with the
Governor and Council. During the
past year the tribe has increased in
population from 800 to 397 and during
the past ten years it has made net
increase of four people Bounty was
paid on 1890 bushels of potatoes. 1927
bushels OF oats, II bushels of peas, l16
bushels of beans. 6S bushels of beets,
liz bushels of turnips. fS bushels OF
carrots and one bushel of parsnips.
THE improved homes and sur
roundings. though gradually made,
are proofs at hand that the Maine IN
dian is capable of working out his
own path to comfort and prosperity,
saws Mr. Hunt After giving a list of
the members of the two committees
charged with the election or rejection
of Indians " no desire to be adopted
into the tribe, Mr.. Hunt goes on to
say: since the law passed in 1883 au-
thorizing the appointment of these
committees and investing them with
power of adoption, no male of foreign
birth has been taken into the tribe
though foreign female Indians, marry
ing members of the tribe, become
themselves members by that marriage;
not so males. and so jealous are the
Indians of their rights and privileges,
that the requisite three-quarters OF
the total membership of the commit
tee has never been found to favor
adoption Of a foreign born Indian
male. There are now several appiI-
can.s for Penobscot citizenship ana
the contest oVer them promises To be
very close.
In the matter of farming, Agent
Hunt states that the work has been
about up to the average. y few. ne
saws, always take special pride IN
this work and devoting much time ana
attention, raise crops of considerable
size and value. Among those who de-
serve special mention are Francis
Stanislaus. of Mattanawcook island
Joseph u. Mitchell, who with his sons
has cleared up an unusually ROCKY
hillside and made it into large ana
fine plot where scarcely tiny stone
can be found: John Attean, Joseph
Swasson and few others"

Steamboat inspectors Want Gasoline

The report of John r. Mcdonald OF

Council as follows:
Navigation on the inland waters OF

We herewith present for your informa-
ton a brief statement OF our transac-
lions as State inspectors of steam YES
sells for the year 1911 and respectfully
beg leave to submit our 31th annual
report.
one hundred and twenty-five steam
ers have been visited and Inspected.
We have collected in fees 1886 ana
paid the same into the State treasury
We have issued-licenses to 133 cap
tains and pilots and 1873 engineers. \
list of the names of all captains and
engineers on steamers over five tons
measurement. together with the
amount of fees paid by each have
been sent to the State auditor.
Six new steamers We're built and
operated the present year. Two were
destroyed by fire, no persons being on
board either OF them when the fire
broke out No accidents have been
reported to passengers or crews dur
ing the season.
quite a number of the steamboat
owners are dissatisfied with present
steamboat laws. Gasoline propelled
boats compete with the steamboats,
and they are not subject to any in
!spection, and the majority of them do
not carry any life saving appliances,
when the steamboat is compelled to do
50. or pay a heavy penalty. A steam
er over five tons pays annually to the
State 50. A gasoline boat, same size,
ard carrying more passengers, pays
nothing.
Several vessels changed their motive
power from steam to gasoline the
present year.
