Local law
Tbe mining lairs of the United
States recognize and sanction tiio
custom among miners of organized
raining districts to adept local laws
or roles governing the location re
cording and working of claims not in
conflict with the State or Federal
legislation
Tbe rales and customs of miners
in a pnrticnnr district are laws and
constitute tho American common law
on mining for precious metals
The rules and enstoras which
point out tbe manner of locating mm
inggroand aro conditions precodeni
hich must be substantially complied
with
itinera bate tbe power to prescribe
the rules governing the acquisition
Hnd divesturo of titles to this cluss
of claims and their extent subject
only to tbe general laws of th
State
In order to secure tbe right of
possession to a mining claim thore
tuust be a compliance not only with
be laws of tho United States but
lso with such local regulations of
tbe mining district as are not in con
dirt therewith
Tb right in a mining claim vest
hy tho tnkiug in accordance with
local rules
The right to occupy explore ood
extract tho precious metals in thn
mineral lands of the United States
wcomeB vested ir the party who lo
atea these land according to tbq
local rules and customs of tho min
ing district in which they are sitnat
el
It will bo presumed in tlio ab
ence of evidence that the parties in
he possession of mining claims bold
hem according to be local rvht
ind customs of the miners in the
listrict
To enable a party to maintain n
right to a mining claim after tbe
right is acquired it is necessary tbat
tbe party cpntinuo substantially to
comply with the mining rules and
customs established and in force in
ibe diMrict where tbe claim is situ
ited
To be of equal validity a rule or
custom of minera must not only be
established or enacted but must be
in forco at tho time and place of the
location It does not like a statnfe
icquire validity by tho mero enact
ment but from customary obedienci
tnd acquiescence of the miners Il
ir void whenever it falls into disuse
or is gonerally disregarded
As the mining law of a district
must not only be established but in
force it is void whenever it falls
into disuse or is generally die
regarded and the question whether
it ia in force nt a given time is ono of
fact for the jnry
In the abseuco of local district laws
applicant are required to show com
pliance with the iinniii acta of Con
gress in force at the dato of tbeir lo
cation
How to Cool a Iteom
Tho composing room of tho New
Orleans Picayune is situated in the
nppcr story of its publication house
JQ6t under tbo roof and in enmmer
is extremely not An inspiration
seemed to have como to one of tho
opprpflaed occupants and in accord
n
MOHAVE
anco with it a vertical wooden box
was constructed in the corner of the
room with openings at tbo floor and
ceiling ami furnished with n pipe
for supplying water at tbp top and
a pan and drain nt the bottom for
receiving tho flow nnJ carrying it
safely away Tbe supply pipe was
bent over the upper end of tbo shaft
and fitted with a rosg like that of n
watering pot bo an to deliver a show
of spray instead df n solid stream
On connecting it with tho service
pipe tho mooment of the wnter was
found to cause an activo circulation
of the air in that part of tho room
which was drawn in at tbe upper
opening of tbo soaft and issued again
axi nun iresu mi moKJor ivei ine
most surprising thing abont tho ex
periment seems to have been tho ef
fect of tho water in cooling the air
to a degree much below its own tern
peratnre With Mississippi water
which when drawn from thf tervice
pipe indicated n temperature of
eignty four degrees tho air of the
room in which tbe thermometer at
the beginning of tho tnid stood at
ninety six web cooled in passing
through lbe length of the shaft to
seventy four degrees or about twenty
degrcpss below the temperature nt
at which it entered and ten degrees
below thaE of the water which wai
nsed to cool it Of courso tbe ab
sorption of beat by evaporation of a
portion of the water accoants for its
refngeruting effect but tbe recult
seems to have been so easily and in
expensively attained that the ex
periment would be well worth
ing in other casee
The Panama Canal
Discouraging reports again come
from the It ihmnp in regard to tbe
Panama Canal Tbe New York
Times of July 15tbsays Tho trouble
into jvbicb tho Panama Canal
Company is drifting is shown by
CommodoreRxbiers reasons for re
signing the agency of tbe company
at tbe 1st in us He struggled with
out auccess to prevent tbe fearful
waste of fnnds with which tho work
was carried on but that which x
citcd bis special indignation and
caused his abrupt departure from
tbe companys aervico was tbo rock
less misrepresentations mado regard
ing tbo progress of excavation Hie
reflated protest- were unheeded and
be resigned and refused to have any
thing moro lo dn with tbe crmpany
on any termV It ia evident this bng
project blown up and srsjiied by
tuo prestige of Ferdinand Do Let
seps is in danger of collapsing
through utter loss of conridence in
its management and its prospects
aro very likely to provo tho monu
mental failure of tbe age
Lieut llrowu of tbe U S Navy
has made n long und interesting re
port on tho condition of tbe canal
under dale of dune 2 1884 Tbo or
igituil estimated cost was 8125000000
and tho time required for its comple
tion was seven years Nearly half ol
that time has already elapsed ano
as near as be can find out not fai
rtbort of 5CO000000 has been expend
ed exclusive of tbo 20000000 ex
pended for the Panama Railway Il
is suid that nearly all the material
has been purchased at extravaganl
prices tbat much of it ia unusable
notably a nnrubrr of excavelon
which wbilo suitable for tho Suez
sand aire nuablo to excavate tbe
eartb and rock of tbe Isthmus Lieu
tenant Rrown was informed by any
intelligent person tbat material cost
ing 15000000 had been allowed to
irink into tbe marsh abd was rinallj
covered np It ia evon said that some
of tbo material has already been con
deinned and sold to vessels leaving
Colon for ballast
Forty one hospitals bavo been con
struclep costing over 3000000 ano
accpmmodatirjg only abduflOO pa
tients but their capacity will have
to be increased if the work is vigor
ously prosecuted
Lieutenant lirown considers tbe
completion of tho canal according to
present plans as very doubtful as it
wil certainly require much more
time and money tbun was original
estimated He thinks tbat n canal
with locks would bo more feasible
bnttbat its net profits would bo much
less
