The governâ€" ment rext day notified the stakers of Cobalt Lake of the offer, and held it open for twontyâ€"four hours to know if they would pay more money for it, which, of course, was ridiculous.

As well as the public getâ€" ting excited over Cobalt, they got the fever and surveyed into mining claims large tracts of tributory lands, as well as confiscating properties that were alâ€" ready located and all fees paid, and what they did not actually confiscate they intimidated the owners into givâ€" ing them 25 per cent. of their properties under threat of expropriation: This resulted in them advertising tracts that they had surveyed for sale under tender, and they wou‘d not allow anyâ€" body to examine any of the properties until they were sold.

It does not matter how good the property is: they require a picture of large measurements of ore, with assays and development to make it attractive, and they are unable to do this without the practical knowledge of the prospector. Then they want the property transferred, a lot of them, to organized joint stock companies, and they offer the prospector possibly ten p:r ‘cent. interest in stock, and not more than 15 per cent., allowing them to have 85 or 90 per cont. There is no assurance that they can handle it, and should they fail, as in many cases, the prospector losss his property, as he has lost control of it, and in any case if threy make a succoss of it he is the last man to get any money, because the Securitiscs Commission steps in and ties up his stock in escrow. It is a case of heads th>y win and tails the prosâ€" pector loses.

This was explained to the government here when the Blue Sky law was thought of, and assulted in the appointment of the Securities Commissioner withciut putting on inspectors. The prospectors were anxious to see capital protected, and were the princiâ€" pal agitators for protection, and all they asked for was a commission that would expose fraud and misreprseriaâ€" tion, but not to interfere with the minâ€" ing business. ow the Securitiecs Comâ€" missicn have assumed that they are a law, and ssem to pass, every short perâ€" iod, certain regulations which confuse and obstruct prospecting and are fast driving the prospector out of the terâ€" ritory, betwsen the capitalist and the government he is the last man who has any right to a>ll any of his inâ€" terests.
