Mining Engineers of Columbia Section Oppose Most Proposed Law
A committee of Mining Engineers from Idaho and Washington critiques the Arenta bill. They favor recording dates in a land office and one-year discovery disqualification but oppose claim orientation, mineral survey certification, Alaska location limits, and a mineral development fund. They split on extralateral rights, recommending 1600 square foot claims tied to lode references if abolished.

TWO PIONEERS RESPOND TO THE FINAL SUMMONS
Two renowned pioneers of the Coeur d'Alene mining era, Timothy McCarthy and John J. Hayes, died in Spokane within hours of each other. Both helped locate famed mines and work for the Coeur d'Alene Syndicate, with McCarthy tied to the Standard and Flynn group properties and Hayes to the Flynn and Senator mines. Survivors include siblings in Ireland and New York, a wife for Hayes, and lasting deeds in mining and local business. John Semple, mining engineer, returned from Kenner county after surveying properties near Lake Pend d'Oreille.
