CONGRESS CONSIDERING RADICAL CHANCE: IN
 MINING LAWS

Although there has been little said riodcals congress has under consider ation at the present time a new min ing law, which will make some radical changes and which will alter mining conditions everywhere in the coun- try. In Alaska the changes will not be so radical as in the rest of the country, but they will affect never theless all placer and quartz miners and prospectors. In a recent mail from the states, John A. Clark, the attorney, received a copy of the pro- posed act of congress and explained today the changes to representative of the News Miner. The most impor- tant change, so far as Alaska is con cerned, is the manner in which claims may be staked and final location made on them.
 Placer Stalking.
 Under the old law, a man stalking a claim was compelled to make dis covery of mineral before he could per feet his location. Very often this lead to litigation, as many claims have been overlapped by other stakers before a discovery could be made. A recent case in Fairbanks, in which some of these features were at issue was that of Williams vs. Fleischman.
 Now, under the proposed law, when a man makes his first stalking of a claim, he hats exclusive right to it for a year, in order to make his discovery and perfect the location. The law provides that he shall commence his exploration work not later than 60 days after first stalking it. Should the stalker suspend work for more

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The claims of American newspapers and magazine correspondents in Germany that dispatches to their journals are repeatedly altered and mutilated by the British cencors will be the object of an official inquiry.

than 90 days, within the first year, without first having completed his To- cation, he forfeits his right to the property.
 If, at the expiration of one year. the stalker has not located mineral, and wishes still to continue his explora- tion work, he must take the matter into court and introduce evidence to show cause why he should be permit ted to continue with the work. The court may then, if he sees fit, grant the extension.
 In the quartz mining, practically the same rules apply, only that the ex- ploration work must start within 30 days after the first stalking.
 Holding Claims.
 The law provides further that no man may hold more than one unpat- tented claim at any time in any place in the United States, except in Alas ka. In the territory the terms of the Wickersham law are used, which does not limit the number a man may hold.
 Bill Before Committee.
 The bill providing for these changes is now before the house committee and, according to the reports sent out by it, if is likely that it will be re- ported favorably.
 Bills, somewhat similar, have been before congress at almost every ses- sion, but each time they were side tracked and it is possible that this one will not get through, although it's chances for passage seem good at present.-News Miner.

SAMPLE
Ballot For Primaries Received
By Election Board
Two Ballots For Each OF The
Leading Parties

The Knox county board of elections
received from Secretary Of State Hill
debrant Thursday morning a sample
ballot for the primaries of April 25.
The board of elections will now ad-
vertise for the printing of the ballots
and will award the contract for the
same within the time prescribed by
law.
There are two ballots for each of
the two leading parties, one contain
ing the names of candidates for presi-
Dental and vice presidential nomina-
tions, on which the voters will desig-
nate their preferences, and one con-
tanning the names of candidates for
delegates and alternates to both the
state and national conventions of
both parties. Each county will fill in
its own names for delegates and al
ternates from the congressional dis
trict to the national convention, and
from the counties to the state con.
ventions.
On the Democratic ballot Woodrow
Wilson is the only candidate for pres
ident; but there is contest on for
vice presidential nomination of that
party. 1t had been generally sup
posed that Vice President Thomas r
Marshall of Indiana would be unop
| posed for a second term nomination
in Ohio but fate has decreed other
| wise. Frank S. Monnett of Colum bus
has his eye on the vice presidency
and so he will go before the Demo
cratic electors of the Buckeye state
as a candidate for that Office. The
names of Marshall and Monnett viii
both appear on the ballot and the
electors can take their choice.
The Republican presidential prefer
ence ballot contains the names o
Theodore e. Burton of Ohio, and VIII
liam Grant Webster, a Chicago man
for president, but carries no names
| for vice president.
The names of Paul Howland Repub
lican of Cleveland and former Cover
nor James r.. Campbell OF Columbu
will not appear on the ballots, a
though the candidates for delegate
and alternates have declared 70
them for second choices for the pres
idential nominations. There are fiv
Democratic candidates for delegates
at-large, and seven Republican cand
dates for such nominations.
More than ordinary interest attach
es to these ballots because they ar
issued under the new presidential
preference primary law which Is t
get its first try-out.

YawnIno.

Yawning is a peculiar act and one
that has never yet been properly ac-
counted for. 1t is not by any means a
sign of fatigue only, although it is
sometimes produced by overexertion.
But an attack of yawning comes on
much more quickly If one is intensely
bored. and certainly a st fy atmO-
sphere tends TO produce t-HIt is also
noticeable that when one has gone con-
siderably past ones mealtime the ten
dency to yawn frequently becomes ir-

this complaint Is its infectiousness;
