CAM. soMMERs FOR AUDITOR.

Mr.. Cam Sommers, of Clarksburg, is
a candidate for auditor, and his chances
are just as good as any of them, If not
better. He is wide-awake young man,
thorough in his business methods, a
good organizer, and has the material IN
him to make good auditor. Keep your
eye on Cam. Sommers. He's right all
around, and would add strength to the
ticket.-The Lincoln News.
Camden Sommers, of Clarksburg, is
candidate for State Auditor on the
Democratic ticket. There is no reason
why the party should not favor him
with the nomination. He has at all
times been an earnest worker for the
party in giving his time and means
10 its success. Four years ago he had
quite a large and respectable vote in
the convention that nominated Hon.
Isaac Johnson. The Times believes he
should be given the nomination and So
licit a careful consideration of his claims
by the Democracy of the State-The Sa-
lem Times.
Camden Sommers, of Clarksburg, is
a candidate for Auditor of West Vir-
GINA. In 1892 he received about 100
votes in the State convention for Au-
Gitor, being the third man in the race.
He measures up to the Jeffersonian
standard of qualification and, besides
that, is a good campaigner.-Sutton
Democrat.

/. OIL NEWS.
<IEET

Special to the Register.
Sistersville, July 13.-The principal
event of the past week was the drilling
in of the Devonian Oil Company's No.
5, on the pullman farm, out in the WICK
and the well drilled in by the MOUNDS
Vile Oil Company, on the Ohio side,
in the old Dog Skin district. Both Oh
these wells come in good, but only one
of them. the one drilled on the Barkes
farm by the Moundsville company is
in new territory. The latter well was
drilled in a place where dry holes had
been drilled on all sides and is a fair
example of the spottedness OF the ter
ritory over in that section. This well
has caused quite little excitement and
those who still hold territory over there
are out looking over their stuff prepara-
tory of drilling if it looks alright.
The situation in oil circles at present
is very peculiar. The price OF credit
balances is at a standstill but the indi-
cations are, as they have been for some
time, for a rise. The stocks are stead
lily decreasing and there is great deal
less work being done in all of the fields
than at any time for long while. The
price will have to go up considerable be-
fore the operators will feel justified in
hunting for new territory.
Henderson & Co. shot their No. 2 on
the Almost farm over on the Ohio side
last week and when cleaned out the
well started off at 10 barrels an hour
more than it did when first drilled in.
Sweeney & Cos No. l, on the Stewart
farm, over on the Ohio side, in the vi
cinity of the Calebaugh wells, was shot
a couple of days ago, and is now max
ing about forty barrels day. This well
was off in production to about five bar
rels a day.

Special TO the Register.

Williamstown, w. Va, July 13.-1t
| is now quite certain that this place Will
see the opening up soon of one Of the
biggest oil fields in the State. The ac-
! tons of late of the Henderson Oil Com
pany, in their eagerness to secure ter
ritory made oil men and residents OF
| Williamstown very suspicious, and not
only the Henderson Company, but out
siders. have been leasing right and
left in this section.
The Henderson Company's holdings
consists of about 10000 acres hereabouts
and the company has expended nearly
fifty thousand dollars in their test OF
the territory, and in eXhausting the salt
water which was encountered, and
which has been a great hinderance to
| operators.
The cause of the great excitement
which has been brought about here was
the drilling in of No. on Henderson
Bros's farm, recently, which is now
pumping at a fair rate, and the actions
of one of the wells which was placed
! in the hands of an inexperienced pump
| er. The pumper was instructed to
pump slow and only keep up operations
| sufficiently fast to exhaust the salt wa
ter in the wells, the fellow became over
jealous in his efforts to exhaust the wa
ter and IL the absence Of the superin-
tendent and in the presence OF several
oil men. whom it is said were spying
| about the wells and who induced the
pumper to act, set the pump to going
al high rate of speed, and 10 the sur
prise of those present the well put forth
an immense flow and pumped oil at a
| great rate.
The oil men at once seen the COM
panv's object, and the fellow who was
pltmping Immediately informed the SUI
perintendent of the new discovery and
thinking the company would be hlghly
elated over the news, was surprised TO
receive his salary and discharge from
the company's service.
The company has five wells on the
Henderson farm and from the prepare
lions being made to develop the ter
ritory in the way of pumping stations
and other equipments, it is evident the
owners know what they are about.
They have also leased on the Ohio side
and are drilling we'll below Marietta
and nearly opposite the Henderson
wells.
The company are after deep oil and
the Register representative is informed
that the Berea sand is the sand into
which the wells are all drilled.
Peunsylvanian's compose the com
pany. and one of the leading members
is reported as being worth over null
| lion and half of dollars.

Mrs. Rhode Noah, OF this place, was
taken in the night with cramping pains
and the next day diarrhoea set in. She
took half bottle of blackberry cordial
but got no relief She then sent to me
to see if had anything that would help
her. l sent her bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and the first dose relieved her.
Another of our neighbors had been sick
for about a week and had tried diff
ferent remedies for diarrhoea but kept
getting worse. l sent him this same
remedy. Only four doses Of it were re-
ouired to cure him. H says he owes
his recovery to this wonderful remedy.
