those having q common religious be-
lief, such as Dunkards, Quakers, &c.,
upon or adjacent 20 one of these irri-
gated tracts, allowing to 20 acres OF
well irrigated land for each individual
or family. Here they can raise garden
vegetables, fruits, potatoes and other
root crops for home consumption and
for market, and on the surrounding
farms. within radius Of one to three
miles, the colonists could by dry farm
ing, except in years of extreme drouth
produce good crops of wheat, rye, bar
lev, broom corn, sorghum, miliet and
other forage crops.
The social, educational and religious
advantages of such colonies over those
which now exist in many parts Of
Southwestern Kansas need no COM
ment. The practical working Of such
cooperative or partnership colonies
has many examples throughout the
United States. Such plan Is only in
the remotest sense, If at al, socialistic
or communistic private ownership in
lands and personal property, and indi-
vidual enterprise need not be in any
way curtailed, and so far as the writer
has been able to investigate Co-opera-
tive Irrigation and the Colony Plan
has many features worthy of commend
alton and few which merit criticism.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1894-04-13
KANSAS HAS STRUCK LIE.

There is no longer any question that
Kansas boasts rich oil field. For
months there has been more or less talk
of the finds in Wilson, Montgomery,
Neosho, Linn and other central south
east counties. In these counties where
paying wells have been put down, repre-
sentatiyes Of the big oil! companies of the
east have been leasing large tracts of
land. The Standard Oil company has
been particularly active, its agents hav-
ing expended upwards of $1,000 for
rights and in making tests. People
in those counties are becoming excited.
Among a number of wells sunk is one in
NeOsho county which is reported
regular spouter, throwing up volume
of crude oil seventy-five feet high as
large as 4 mans body. A number of
gas wells have also been opened out.
Last week the Standard company sent
in twelve engines for as many wells.
The Troy Oil company have taken out
twenty-five leases in Bourbon county.
The Pennsylvania Oil company and the
Faren, PIttsburg, company are equally
as active. Twenty-three wells are being
worked in Wilson county at this time.
The coming summer promises great de-
velopments. What with zinc and salt,
coal, gypsum and oil it would seem that
Kansas promises tn lose her characters
tic as purely agricultural state.

THE WAY IT WILL PAN OUT.

The absorbing question with our peo.
pie is will the railroads obey the orders
of the commissioners, and the decision
of the supreme court? That states have
the power to make laws regulating said
roads there can be no question. The re-
port that the Santa Fe road in the hands
of receivers appointed by Judge Cald-
we'll was not amenable to the laws of the
state is simply stuff. The Santa Fe is a
Kansas institution, Incorporated under
the laws of the state. compelled TO have
its general Office within the state, and
the government will hardly interfere
with the operation of state laws. If,
however, a judge makes bad break
and believes he is higher than all laws
or powers and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS road
under his control from obeying state laws
and thereby becoming a law-breaker,
it will not effect other roads that are
fortunate enough to be operated by
their owners and when the other lines
put in the rates the Santa Fe will not be
long in doing so.
