PROSPECTS OF HARMONY, Au Agreement Between the Mining and Valley Forces Likely, A conference was to have been held Saturday in San Francisco by representatives of the California Miners’ Association and the Anti-Debris Associa. tion on the matter of harmonious cooperation in securing large Oongressional appropriations for the improvement of the rivers of the Sacramento tual benefit of the miners and valley people. Atthe suggestion of Robert T. Devlin of Sacramento the conference was postponed until ufter the publication of the report of the United engineers, who have been long preparing a comprehensive and permanent plan for the improvement of these rivers. Its expected that this. report will be at band in a few weeks.

LOCATING MINING CLAIMS A Concise and Correct Interpretation of the New Law. Saturday’s Mining and Scientic Press says: The statement in last week’s issue that “where a mining claim is located in this State after November 2a of this year, it will be possible to do the $50 worth of work required by the California statute and make it a part of the $100 assesment work specified in the Federal statutes, “was an exact statement of fact. The new mining law of this State, which as yet has not been declared unconstitutional, says that $50 worth of work shall be done ona claim within sixty days after location. The Federal statute requires an annual amount of work or improve. : ments to the extent of $100, the time for which such work begins being the Ist of January next after the date of location. Then, as stated, where a claim is located November 2nd, the locator has until the 3lst of December, 1898, to comply with the requirements of the Federal statute ; and as he has until January 1, 1898, to do the $50 worth of work required by the State statute, he can have such $50 in work or improvements apply on the: $100 required by the national law. 7 An Irish Dividend.

LOCATING MINING CLAIMS A Concise and Correct Interpretation of the New Law. Saturday’s Mining and Scientic Press says: The statement in last week’s issue that “where a mining claim is located in this State after November 2a of this year, it will be possible to do the $50 worth of work required by the California statute and make it a part of the $100 assesment work specified in the Federal statutes, “was an exact statement of fact. The new mining law of this State, which as yet has not been declared unconstitutional, says that $50 worth of work shall be done ona claim within sixty days after location. The Federal statute requires an annual amount of work or improve. :

ments to the extent of $100, the time for which such work begins being the Ist of January next after the date of location. Then, as stated, where a claim is located November 2nd, the locator has until the 3lst of December, 1898, to comply with the requirements of the Federal statute ; and as he has until January 1, 1898, to do the $50 worth of work required by the State statute, he can have such $50 in work or improvements apply on the: $100 required by the national law. 7 An Irish Dividend.
