OIL FIELDS IN EGYPT.
An Abundance of Petroleum Recently Dis
covered Near the Red Sea.

covered Near the Red Sea.
There is now reason to believe that
the ancient Egyptians knew how to
work petroleum wells, and that their
embalming process was based on some
preparation of mineral oil. An abund
ance of petroleum has recently been
discovered in the Peninsula of Gimshch,
near the Red Sea. The first borngs
were made at distance of four hun
dred feet from that historic body Of
water. and in one hundred and iifty-siX
feet from the surface oil was struck in
such profusion that thrco thousand two
hundred barrels of petroleum gu'heI
out within twenty-four hours. Accord
ing to Mr. Daley, a Belgian engineer,
who made scientific examination of
this new oil region, there is no doubt
but that there is as much oil under the
surface of the ground in Egypt as in
any part of the world, but it is doubtful
if it can come into competition with
American or Russian oil, aS it is mixed
with salt water and other foreign sub
stances. 1t yields on analysis from
twenty to twenty-five per cent of pure
mineral oil. The region where 1t i
found is of volcanic structure, and has
neither vegetation nor fresh water.
1t is very remarkable that oil and gas
should have been buried for 50
many thousand years in the eaIth with
out being known or utilized to any
great extent by mankind. The dis
coyery of petroleum has been an un-
mixed blessing to mankind, for it has
furnished a cheap illumjnant for tho
masses. 1t is said TO have changed the
habits of myrads of poor people. In
the absence of any cheap artificial light
the inhabitants Of Japan and China
were wont to retire shortly after sun
down, but since the advent of refined
petroleum, or kerosene, the poor Asia
tics can afford the luyury of a light for
several hours, which formerly they
spent in darkness. Our American pc
trolcum still has the market as against
all the rest of the world. the only real
competitor being the Russian mineral
oil, but as a general thing our petro-
lcum i the cheapest illuminant, rs il
can be refined at less cost than the Rus
sian Our oil territory is steadily en-.
larging. As one oil field is exhausted
new ones are discovered quite, as pro
ductiye. The oil-bearing strata is knowr
to extend into West Virginia and Ohio
In the matter Of gas wells, which are
found in all our petroleum fields, we
seem to have an advantage over all the
world. Coal is being dispensed with
for manufacturing and heating puroses
in large sections OF Pennsylvania and
Ohio. The use of natural gas has
cheapened very greatly manufacture

no manner could Mr.. Cleveland
so strengthen his Administration as
by his appointment. In point Of
ability, and especially as relating
to national finance, he is the peer Of any
man who has been in public life during
the last decade, and his name is a
synonym for personal, political and
official honesty throughout the length
and breadth OF the Republic. The Presi-
dent has latterly evinced disposition TO
recede from the position he assumed in
regard to the silver question, and
there is no manner in which he
could so gracefully yield to the
dominant feeling of his party as ex-
pressed in convention and Congress, as
by placing the foremost Democrat of the
nation, who is in sympathy with the
popular sentiment, at the head of the
financial department. There is no one
who could so fully reconcile the differ
ences between the Administration and
majority OF the party in Congress as
Judge Thurman.

THE UTE INDIAN REMOVAL.

Senator Bowen, of Colorado, yesterday
introduced in the Senate bill to compel
the removal OF the Ute Indians from
Colorado to Utah. These Indians are
now located on their reservation in La
Plata county, and the people OF Colorado
are anxious to have them removed for
several reasons, one OF which is that they
(the Indians) are marauders and thieves,
and their presence is a constant menace
to the lives and property OF the whites
living near the reservation. OF course,
no one can blame the go-ahead citizens
OF Colorado for seeking the removal OF
such undesirable neighbors, but just why
Southern Utah should be afflicted with
their presence, does not so clearly APP
pear. Certainly, Utah has no use for
any addition to her already large Indian
population, but since Colorado wants to
get rid OF her quota, we suppose they
will have to be dumped over the line
into Utah whether the citizens OF this
Territory like it or not.
The bill introduced by Senator Bowen
provides for their transfer to the following
described lands; "Beginning at the
southeast corner OF the Territory OF Utah,
running thence north along the eastern
boundary OF said Territory Of Utah 100
miles, thence west true course to the
centre OF the channel OF the Colorado
river, thence southwesterly along the
center OF the channel OF said stream to
the southern boundary OF said Territory
OF Utah, thence east along the south
ern boundary line Of said Territory
of Utah to the place OF begin
ming" which comprise practically all of
San Juan county, adjoining the county in
which the Indians are now located Just
how such a removal would operate to pro-
tect the Coloradans from further depreda-
tions by the redskins, we are at loss to
