Notwithstanding all the explanations that have been
made concerning the performance of annual
work on mining claims there is apparently good many
miners who do yet understand the situation. The
Mining Review has recently been receiving letters in
which the writers asked to have the matter explained
them. so here goes
just about year ago resolution adopted
in congress and signed by the president which extended
the time for doing the annual assessment for 1920 six
months. the first day of July, 1921 Following that
action by congress, early in August last amendment
to the mining laws which permanently changed the
nual assessment year period passed and became
law So that beginning six months ago, the assessment
began With July and ends June 30th next The six
months extension relief bill only applied to 1920
ments. All claim have until the end of June,
1922. in which to do their 1922 annual labor.

claim owners would not be compelled get in the
dead of winter perform belated work and
protect their claims The fiscal year ends June 3Oth

The interesting feature of the matter, as disclosed
by the records OF the board of supervisors that the Co

COchse county was perfectly willing, undoubtedly,
to advance much money necessary out of its Is

office of the board of supervisors disclose that this

Clerk Prepares to Handle
HEAVY Fall Court Decker

In spite Of an enormous increase
in the amount Of legal matter hand
led in the office of County Clerk
WILDER NJ. Warner. that official has
that his Office force was
completely caught up in its work
and was prepared TO handle the
heaviest court dockets in the his
tory Of St. Joseph county.
Warner estimated that more than
SEQ legal cases have been handled
this year by his office. This number
includes estate. guardianship, civil
and criminal cases.
An idea Of the increase of business
at Warmers office may be had from
reports showing that during the
respective years from 1918 until 1921
cases filed in his offices numbered
1913. 1854. 1885 and 2,2S6 res
pectively. With this years number
of cases filed. already well past the
500 mark, there is no doubt but
what last years figure Of 2.2S6 Will
be swelled by 200 or more.
The fact that two county courts
were found 10 be entirely inadequate
to the handling of the county's legal
business and the subsequent estab-
fishing Of another superior court
gives a good idea OF how Warmers
office has been rushed. The opening
dates OF the circuit court and sup
erior courts No. and No. ,. set
for Sept. i, IS and 25,
will find the heaviest court dockets
in the history OF the county.

Michigan Central Expansion
At Niles TO Aid This City

Construction OF the new classifi-
cation freight yard 10 handle the
eastbound traffic from South Bend
and other points over the Michigan
Central railroad at Niles, which was
started last May, is showing rapid
progress, and when completed will
increase the speed Of freight hand
ling from this city to a large extent.
The eastbound terminal, when
completed. Will represent an outlay
Of more than S5,O0O,O0O. and will be
almost identical with the recently
built westbound yards.
An idea Of the value of this termi-
nal for South Bend may be derived
from the fact that upon its compile
ton entire train loads OF freight can
be shipped TO a destination in one
unit, saving the time lost in break
ing up trains at every stop for re-
classification. IL will also eliminate
the necessity OF resorting 10 the
station yards for switching freight
from the main line 10 the branch.
These important changes. when con-
pleted, will put South Bend several
hours nearer the Atlantic seabOard
and intermediate points.
