The prtitlon nsls for the ap pointment of a U. S. Land Com missioner at Ek"li, in Northwester! Harney County. On the map pub lished on page six of tins paper tht lcation of KrIi in shown. The es tablishment of a land office at thm point in the Lakeview dUtrir would affect a very great saving ii time and expeuse to prospectivt settlers, who now have to trae some 70 miles to Silver Lake ti make entries after viewing thei proposed homesteads. Already tin expense of visiting these lands Iron Bend is considerable, and in man instances the added cost of a Silve Lake trip, often with witueso, makes the burden too heavy fo the average homesteader to bear. rUTlTION.

The latch shown in tbo accompany ing cut Is one of the most satisfactory a writer in the Kansas Fanner has ercr seen on a farm gate. It is made of a solid iron bar threaded on one end so as to screw into the gatepost Ou this is bung;, by a bolt through its ends and the iron bar, a small iron rod which has been bent into proper shape as shown in the picture. Th ' l QAKDT OXTB 11TCH. from th Kansas Tannsr. bar must bavo a pin through it at U proper place to catch tbo latch and prevent its being thrown clear oror when the gate is closed with force. A piece of gas plpo may be substituted for the iron bar in the post. If desir able a small piece of hoop iron can be nailed upon the end of tho gate board which engages the latch and thus pre vent wear. This, however, is not nec essary. This latch is the lxrveation of IU 3. Llnscott of Hoi ton, San. Did you ever know a poor farm er to have good fences? Occa sionally a good former has a poor fence, but it doesn't list long. B. C. G.

The Dcud C inmctcinl Club held a meeting in the club r 00 ins Thurs duy evening, with nbout 30, mem bers in attendance. M. S. Lnttiu, chnirman of the commttccj appointed to suggest changes in the bylaws, cspecitill that section regarding the power and functions of the board of di rectors, bunded in new bylaws, n. revised by bis committee. The members of the committee had Mig ge.tcd new bylaws to replace nol only the section paiticularly in question, but the entire lot. W. V. Orcutt, on behalf of tin Bend Realty Hoard, expressed the view that the proposed revision giving to the Commercial Club's board of directors exclusive execu tive management, was Inadviscd. The Realty Board, which Mr. Or cutt pointed out had been very in strumental in organizing the present commercial club, felt that all tin members of the club should ltaxe equal voice tu the execution of im portant matters. Alter some dis cussion, and the reading by tlie Secretary of the proposed new by laws, they were laid over to by passed upon at the next regulat meetiug.
