Is the commissioner honest, who
for the sake of gaining a lucrative
business ho allows or possibly en
courages hie client to swear falsely ?
Then who is to blame, the com
missioner who led hie client astray,
the honest entryman (? ) who care
lessly swears to an impossibility,
or the local land office officials who
are clearly within the law? While
it may work a hardship on the ap
plicant in many instances ; the re
jection of proof may possibly mean
the loss of land to him, still all
this would not justify the local of
fice in violating a direct statute by
accepting his proof. Let the U. S.
commissioner who made out his
sworn statements and swore hifh
to them outside the land district
contrary to law, and who no doubt
advised him in tho matter, and the
land officials who accepted his fil
ings contrary to law, and had his
final proofs published, receive the
censure of the honest entrymen,
and not the present officials who
are complying with the law.

ceeds O’Neil Bros, in the business
at the Forest place and the Lone
Pine ranch, 12 miles west of Prine
ville. C. C. O’Neil, Walter O’Neil,
George O’Neil, Alex E. Davenport
and William T. Davenport are the
stockholders in this company,
which starts out with a working
capital of $25,000, fully subscrib
ed, as no stock is on the market.
The company, as its name implies,
will do a general trading business.
Not only merchandise will be dealt
in, but the company will buy hay,
livestock and lands
where it is
deemed expedient. All the stock
holders are thorough business men
and of unimpeachable integrity.
Slightly in advance of the rail
road, the company expects to re
main in business at Forests till it
arrives, a.id then continue in busi
ness for all time, as the charter is
perpetual.
We predict an unbounded suc
cess
to this concern. All
the
gentlemen are known to us, and
nothing but success could be ex
pected or believed.— Review.
