Senator Lorimer has not resigned

Aviator Hamilton, strange to say,

Philadelphia tnan in getting there.
A change to cooler is predicted
in the Rockies. Usually such news
is acceptable in June, but the year of
the comet is an exception.
According to the London Lancet
aeroplanes may cause a disease re

aviators nave been kept too busy to
think about it.
The quica work which was done

In spite of the fact that the cy

The Yakima preacher who asked

A steel concern ca the Pacific coast
has contracted for iron ore and pig
iron from China for the next fifteen
years. A consular report says that
the Robert Dollar Steamship com
pany will perform the transportation
and will add one or two steamers
which will be built in British yards.
“Though, these will fly the British
flag, they will be owned by American
capitalists. It will require consider
able freight to fill these vessels in the
outward cargo, and this enterprise
should help increase trade between
the United States and China." No
doubt it will. The steamers that bring
ore and pig from China will seek
American manufactured goods to car
ry back. So if we would make it a
little easier to get Argentine wool
into this country the vessels bringing
it would greatly increase our export
trade to the River Plate. Incidental
ly, as the Dollar steamers will be
owned by American capital, what is
gained by refusing them the use of
the American flag? We do not know
that the company would wish to sail
its steamers under the flag of their
own nation, but if they would there
Is no decent reason why they should
not be allowed to.

One of the most important mining
decisions rendered in the United
States was handed down recently
by Judge Stevens of the district
court. The ruling involves numerous
new points of law that have never
been raised in the complexity of apex
litigation and is certain to be cited
by attorneys in other mining districts
where similar issues are involved.
The case will undoubtedly be appeal
ed in spite of the warning of some of
the best mining lawyers in the coun
try, who have always advised their
clients to compromise rather than
face the possibility of illimitable liti
gation. Colorado has been sorely af
flicted with apex and side line litlga
tion, and the experience has been
rather costly, but it is hoped that in I
the present instance the “'Biggest Lit-!
tie Mine” of Nevada will not be
forced to suspend dividends or to
stop operations. The ruling has an
other and more important bearing on
mineral locations in general, in ac
cordance with the question of oil lo
cations, and, that is, that mineral of
any character depends on the actual
discovery and not the presence of an
infinitesimal portion of the alleged
contents discovered in the course of
development.
The principal points of law decided
in the case are as follows:
First: That a valid location of a
mining claim can only be based upon
a discovery of mineral within the
boundaries of the claim sought to be
located, and upon the unappropriated
mineral lands of the United States.
Second: Whenever after a discov
ery, a mining location has been made
and the ground included within the
boundaries of such claim has been
segregated from the unappropriated
mineral lands of the United States,
no valid location can be made of any
claim based upon a discovery made
within the boundaries of a claim thus
segregated.
Third: A failure to adverse an ap
plication made for a patent on a
senior location by a junior location,
does not stop such junior locator
from questioning the validity of the
location of the claim under which the
senior locator seeks to enforce an
extra-lateral as against such junior
locator.
Fourth: The invalidity of such
patent may be pleaded as a defense
in any action brought for the posses
sion of land and may be tried upon
the same principle as an original bill
in equity.
Fifth: Where the original location
certificate of a claim declares that the
location was made entirely within the
boundaries of other claims the bur
den of proof is upon the locator to
show that the claims upon which
such locations were made were in
valid.
Sixth: That where a cross-vein
l departs from the side lines of a lo
cation. such side lines become the end
lines for the purpose of determining
the extra lateral rights of the locat
or, and beyond such side-lines as
they extend downward vertically, the
locator cannot follow the vein, and
could not enter upon or into prem
ises which are shown outside of the
vertical planes drawn downward
through the location.
NATIVE COPPER ANI> OXIMES
IN KIMBERLY CON. Sil tET
An indication of the predicted
' wealth that will be given up by the
I properties owned by the Kimberly
I Consolidated Mines company, when
I great depth is reached was produced
I in the three-compartment shsf* this
! week when the miners uncovered na
| tive copper, black oxides of copper,
Galena and sulphides, says ihe Bat
tle Mountain Herald. These minerals
appeared In seams in the quartzite
and at a point approximately 050 feet
below the apex of the mountain. As
says returned a total value of $115,
and showed the ore to carry gold and
silver besides the base metals. Such
character of ore shows they are near
ing water level—matter of fact water
is appearing now.
As the baser metals only appear in
seams at present, showing that the
formation Is breaking Into the r< free-1
tory zone, there is every reason, from j
a geological standpoint, to look for\
a great body at greater depth. And I
there is another situation to be look
ed for, well-founded on existing con- ;
ditions as observed from ihe forma
tion so far disclosed, and that Is a !
fissure vein of the class of ore <11 a- (
covered. Should that develop, this,
shaft will hold a world-beater for 1
quantity and values.
The early locators of this ground
drove a tunnel into the mountain at
a point about 200 feet further up 'he
hill from this shaft, from which they
have extracted tons and ♦nns of low
grade milling gold ore; hundreds of
sacks, running better than $50 are
lying on the dump awaiting the com
pletlon of the mill, and the dump will 1
average $15. In the prosecution of'
the work on this tunnel they enooun-1
tered a heavily copper stained depos
it thirty feet In width, that assay-!
eri $14 in gold, silver and copror,
which dipped down the hi'l toward
the present shaft, later undertaken. !
As they were not developing copper '
they passed It and kept on after their
gold bearing ledge. This copper
stained ledge has developed the na
tive copper and the oxides 250 feet
further down the hill. On this pres
ent condition is based the belief that
deeper work is going to open a valu
able fissure vein of gold, silver, cop
per and galena.
But what an area of free-milling
gold ore lies above this sulphide
zone? It is almost beyond the human
imagination to contemplate. No ores
of a pronounced base character have
been encountered anywhere on the
Consolidated estate up to the p.-isent
time, the lowest point reached So,
what a field, what a deposit of low
grade gold ore lies above this point?
It is conservatively estimated at
3,000 feet wide, 7,500 feet long and
650 feet (or better) deepi Millions
of tons to be run through the great
mill, hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth of bullion to be sent to
the mint before shipments by rail ;ud
smelter treatment will have to be re
sorted to.
But there are other ledges not
showing any copper and their charac
ter will be such as can be treated by
cyaniding. these there will be
developed a number. So that in an
other year, Kimberly will have an
output of bullion second to none in
the mining world.
SPHINX WINS CASK.
In the suit to quiet title to the Los
Gazabo claim, brought by the Round
Mountain Mining company against
the Round Mountain Sphinx, the
court has held that the plaintiff is
not entitled to the remedy sought
and the defendant is given costs. The
Round Mountain company will appeal
the case to the higher court, accord
ing to Vice President Loftus. Judge
Stevens rendered a long opinio i on
the case, a portion of which is
given:
“I can reach no other conclusion
but that on the 3rd day of Marti*,
1906, the date of location of the Los
Gazabo claim, the Sunnysides Nos.
1, 2 and 3, were valid existing lo ca
tions and that the location of th>, Ix>s
Gazabo was based upon a discover.-*
of mineral within the limits of the
SunnyBide claims, and was there? ».-e
void.
“I am satisfied that the de?endan*s
would be estopped to deny the valid
ity of the patent so far as the Sunny
side claims are concerned, and de
I fendants do not question its validity
(with reference to the surfact griund
within the boundaries of those claims,
nor any extra lateral rights which ac
crue to plaintiff by virtue of the pat
ent to the Sunnyside claims.
“I cannot find that any of the au
thorities cited sustain the location of
the so-called Los Gazabo lode, and I
can reach no other conclusion than
that such,location was void, and that
the patent, issued by the land depart
ment, could give such location no le
gal vitality.”
