A mining claim hased upon a discovery made upon within Ute limits ol anv other claim is void; there is no provisions for a discov ery shaft in the Felieral statute.

Th« condition of a community convulsed with Jealousy toward another community is deplorable. One can be jealous and be just at th« same time. An individual or community smirks and belittles itself by jealousy. Selfi-hness and jealousy go hand in band. Jealousy stultifies Judgement. Jealousy begets prejudice and if persisted In indue«« meanness; it perverts your better self; cultivates dishonesty and sua- picion and lowers the conception of a prop r moral standard. It is iusiduona and reduces its victim to the pitiable state of not being able.to distinguish (»tween right and wrong, wltere the object of its bate is involved. Between two communities mutnal ben efit is the resalt of thoughtful cooperation Yon cannot bnild up a healthy progreaa of self by pulling your neighbor down. It is more criminal to steal the credit due to your neighbor than to steal his puree. Such a course involves damage lo your moral standard and works destruction of self respect. That which is true between two comma nities is, if possible, truer still between factions of the same community. The "get together" sentiment Is the "give and take” principle should rule; redoes it to an expression of all who are interest ed then exercise the American doctrion of majority government. Vindictivoees, Selfishness and hair pulling in a family do not make for love, harmony and proa- perity. This is equally true io the com munity This seems to be "whats the matter with Gold Hill’’. Get together on such as you can agree on. It is not necessary that nothing should ba done stmply because you can not agree upon everything. —C B Watson, by request s ie th o d iit C h urch S e r v ic e s Sunday School 10: A< M .
