Portland, Ore, Oct. 30, 1901. K. J. Hard, Esq., Sec. Oregon Wining Exchange, l'oitland, Ore. Dear Sir I am in receipt of yo-ir I letter ofthc 11th Inst, nskinji, for the use of the Oregon Mining Ex- change, an opinion on the follow ing question: "Will annual assessment work, done on one leilge which runs through part only of a group of claims, be counted as assessment work on the other claims of the same group upon which arc other ledges, the group being owned by one individual?" In answer I beg to say that if the work done on the first ledge tends to develop the ledges 011 the other claims, it will be counted as work done for the benefit of nil thej claims of the group. Ami whether! the work tends to develop the other claims is a question of feat to be de- tcrmiued from the circumstances. I It Is easy to imagine a case in I which the work done on one claim : could not be considered as tending to benefit another. For cxamplvU 11 a group 01 claims arc siiuaieo on cither side of a deep gulch, with . . . ... . . the ledges 011 both sides iiititiiugj parallel wiin llie guicn, nun a tun nel is driven at the bottom of the bill upon one side, and at right angles with the gulch, for the pur pose of tapping the ledges on that side, the work could not possibly be said to develop the ledges on the opposite side. II, 011 the other hand, the claims are all so situated upon elevated ground that from 0110 tunnel the, ledges ot all the claims could be It will ! running to ltx full i-npmlty tappetlbyaysjcra Lpf crQS4CllttijU.'tiof iS.UUOto Kn.tW feet dully which audit is the intention mid purpose will " U lurrvnwd In the uprliiK to 01 lite owner to so woric uie mine, it is clear that work done 01: this system will tend to develop, and will be coutitcd is work, 011 the en tire group. I find the decisions of the courts uniform on this question. In the case of St Louis Smelting Co. v Kemp, 104 U. S. 636, Mr. Justice Fields, speaking for the supreme court of the United States, says: "Labor and improvements, within the meaning of the statute, arc deemed to hnve been had on n min ing claim, whether it consists of one location or several, where the labor is performed or the improve ments are made for its develop ment; that is, to facilitate the ex traction of the metal it may contain; though, in fact, such labor and im provements may be on ground which iriginally constituted only one of the claims, as in sinking' a shaft, or be at a distance from the claim itself, as where the labor is performed for the turning of a stream, or the introduction of water, or where the improvement consists in the construction of a flume to carry off the debris or waste ma terial. It would be absurd to re quire a shaft to be sunk 011 each lo cation 011 n consolidated claim, when one shaft would suffice for all the locations." In the case of Jupiter Mining Co. v. Hodie Mining Co., 11 Fed 666, the federal court for the district of California says: "Where otie per son or company owns several coll-' tiguous or adjoining claims capable of being advantageously worked together, one general system may "be adopted to work such claim. Such system may consist of a shaft -with drifts, cross-cuts, and tunnels therefrom, mid such works need not be upon any of the claims in question, When such system is adopted, work in furtherance of the system is work on the claims in tended to be developed by it. Work done outside of the claims, or outside of any claim, if done for the purpose nud as the means of prospecting or working the claim, is as available for holding theeluim as if done within the boundaries of the claim itself." In Hook v. Justice M. Co. 58 Fed., 107, the court held that the running of a tunnel for the pur pose of prospecting, developing and working two separate claims owned bv the same persons, though partly outside of both claims, is to be credited to both and il the neces aary amount of work is done it is a sufficient compliance with the law. In Chambers v. Harrington in U. S. 350, the supreme court of the United States held that where sev eral adjoining claims are held in common and worked for the bene fit of all, work done upon any one ot them in a given year, to an atiount equal to that required to ,e done upon nil in that year, meet-. tlic rcouiremcnli of Hie United 'States statutes pint-idinc; for an 1111 mini assessment work. Many other enses might lc cited, hut Section 2314 of Ihe rcvNed statute, of the United States seems to lie conclusive of this question, This section was amended Kehtu nry nth. 1875, "so that where n person or company has or may run a tunnel for the purpose of devel- oping n lode or lodes, owned by said person or company, the money so expended In said tunnel shall he taken and considered as expended on said lode or lodes, whether lo cated prior to or since the passage of said act; and such person or com pany shall not be required to er iorm work 011 the surface of said lode or lodes in order to hold the same as required by said act." (Sec Hook v. Justice Mining Co. 58 bed. 117.) It is obvious, therefore, that work prosecuted under a system intended and as it means for the dc velopuieut of nil the claims of the group, whether it is done on a Iclge or not, or even outside the houmlarici of the claims, if equal to that required to be done upon all the claims is a sulhcicut compll mice with the provisions of the mining laws of the United States. ... -. r..
