THE Secretary of the Interior has
made a curious decision upon an archi
tecturai question The Homestead laws
require that, in order to validate claim
of pre- emption of land. house must
have been erected upon each quarter sec
ton. Some astute fellows have under
taken to comply with this provision nom
inally, not really. Building house at
the point where the boundaries of four
quarter sections come together, they have
made the building partly upon each quar-
ter section. This is so smart an arrange.
ment that it might be supposed that the
Interior Department would not submit to
it. The law requires house to be erec-
ted on each quarter section of land. The
cunning fellows interested in this ezper.
iment have really but quarter of house
upon each quarter section. and yet Mr..
Delando decides that this is Sufficient,
and that quarter of house is, in the
Land Department law, a house. The
decision has a tendency to encourage
frauds upon the government, and is such
a one as speculators in land will greatly
approve-FhiladeIphia Inquirer

ENGLAND is puzzled how to receive
the three women who accompany the

poligamy. and to recognize any one and
not all three Of the ladies cannot fail to
