TIVH FROM GRANT AND IIARN1CV COl'NTIKS, STATIC OF ORICGON:
We the undomguod your jwtitionors must rcscctfully represent as follows:
That we aro each and all inhabitants and legal voters and the large majority of us taxpayers
of that portion of Harney county herein asked to be cut oil' from said County and placed in Grant County.
That the present boundary line between said Grant and Harney Counties is indefinite and
uncertain by reason of the Act creating said Harney county being ambiguous and on account thereof cor
tain of us are unable to determine which of said Counties tve are residents, legal voters and taxpayers of.
That to the majority of us our interests and means of communication with tho County Seats
of the two Counties are such, that we greatly prefer to be residents and taxpayers of said Grunt County.
That if the line between Grant and Harney Counties was so changed and established an to
commence at the present South-west corner of said Grant County at tho South-west corner of Tp 18, SR 2(1
KWM nnd run thence ICa-4 on said Township lino between Townships IS and PJ South to the South-west
corner of Township IS S R 111 1C and run thence South on the Twp line between Ranges !I() and III 1C to
the South-west comor of Tp 21 S R .".! 1C and thence run Fast on the Tp lino between Tps 21 and 22 South
and on said lino extended to the ICast lino of what is now Harney County, the same would include our
homes in said Grant County, and wouhl be of great advantage to us financially and of benefit to us na a
community.
That tho present line between said Counties as well as being indefinite and uncertain cuts in
twain tho Silvics Valley and Drowsey Settlements which aro comparatively large, while the lino herein des
cribed nml tho establishment of which is asked, will avoid such division of settlements, and will in the main
follow tho unsettled mountain ranges and water sheds.
Wherefore your Htitioners most respectfully pray that you our representatives lo tho Legis
lature of Oregon will introduce al the USUI Session and most earnestly supxtrl and cause to bo passed a
bill so changing and establishing the lino hot ween irnid Grant and Harney counties as hereinbefore desig
nated, And embracing us in said Grant County.

An Open Letter.
Drs. Darrin Gentlemen: I now
take the pleasure of writing youthat
after a full course of your electro
magnetic treatment I am entirely
cured of pain in my chest, which
has troubled me for over eight years.
Having been under treatment of
doctors of LiverK)ol, Glasgow, Cal
cutta and Sun Francisco, none of
them did me any good until 1 came
under your treatment, which I am
sure has permanently cured me,
for which, gentlemen, I beg to re
main yours gratefully,
