The Sentinel says: A number of the
Lubbock Oil Co., who was out at Carlo
yesterday, informs us that their well
is still increasing slightly in produc-
tion. The we'll will not be tubed until
the production begins to fall off. The
driller, John Cain, who is an exper-
fenced oil man, says he expects to get
another pay streak in the same sand,
and when the upper gives out they
will drill to the lower.

Literary Note from the Century Co.

Marion Crawford has written a new
story specially for The Century. II is
called "A Rose Of Yesterday" and it
will begin in the November number
and run for six months. The story
opens in Lucerne, and while it is en-
tirely separate in interest, some of the
personages that appear in it will be
familiar to readers of Don Orsino." 1t
is wholly romantic in character.

MoKinlsy's Vote ~ Shown By Poil Far
Above That Of Bryan's.
"A special from Lincoln. Neb.. to the
Philadelphia Press says:
Major Mckinley win carry Candidate
Bryan's own precinct by three votes to
one for his opponent, and by plurai-
| ty larger than that obtained by Harri-
son four years ago over the combined
Populist Democratic vote for president.
This result, which seems doubly remark
able in view of the Democratic candi-
dates popularity at home, has been es.
tabhshed By careful house-to-house
poll of the precinct, which is A, in the
Fifth ward.
All the citizens answered courteously,
and it is believed that the poll is ac-
curate. The final figures were; Nc
Kinley. $40; Bryan, n; Bentley, 1 !;
doubtful Republican,, o. doubtful DEM
ocrats. 9,.undecided, III. spp -l7stiu
In 1892. when Mru Bryan was cam
didates for congress, the, vote on presi-t
dent was: Harrison. Republican, 1892 |;
Cleveland. Democrat, 40 Weaver, Pop
ulist, 81. The vote fer the Democratic
and Populist candidates was thus 81, or
20 more than Bryan bids fair to receive
this year. At the same time Mckinley
will apparently receive IL votes more
than Harrison received.
Mr.. Bryan received 1873 votes for con-
gress and his opponent, Judge A. w.
Field, polled 1852. The great drop Of
the Bryan vote to II would seem to in
dicate that the voters are not consider.
ing personal popularity as much as party
principles.
Comparison may be made with this
vote on justice Of the supreme court
last fall. when party lines were closely
drawn: Maxwell, Independent, 81 Nor.
vail, Republican. 1856; Mahoney, gold
Democrat, 16; Phelps, Bryan Demo.
crat, 23.
The result Of the canvass surprised
even the most radical Republicans, who
did not expect Mckinley to receive more
votes in the precinct than did Harrison
in 1899.
A partial canvass of the city and
county will apparently show the gen.
eral result. The county committee dis
tributed blanks and sought to secure an
accurate poll. In two precincts re-
ported the result was Mckinley, 219 ;
Bryan, "A. The poll of University
Place, leading center, was, Mckinley,
1875; Aryan, II; Prohibition, 10; uncer-
tain. 90. It is claimed that while the
returns are incomplete, they establish
the general character of the whole.

THERE will be no uncertainty about
the result Of the race for Congress in
this county. Mr.. Murray is the choice
of the Democrats and being county
man he will not lose single vote. lie
is so well known that II seems hardly
necessary to comment on his fitness for
the place. Those who know him, at
home as well as abroad, recognize his
superior qualifications for the position OF
Congressman. The only trouble he
will have will be getting sufficient sup
port from other counties. lie has been
assured, however, that he will carry five
counties in the district and these ought
10 win him the nomination.

A BIG INDUSTRY,

Perhaps it may not be generally
known that Louisville has one of the
largest manufacturers Of chewing gum
in the United States, the Kis-me Com
pany. This concern not only does q
large business. but its product is cele-
brated, the country over, for purity and
cleanliness, and "Kis.Me" has become
almost a household word and is the
synonym OF all that is sweet and delic-
ious In the chewing gum line.
The company imports annually from
Mexico sgreat many carloads OF "Chicle, >
which is a gum grown in that country
and is gathered very much like We do
maple sugar in this country. This arti-
Gle is the chief component of chewing
gum and is Favored with the purest es-
sential fruit oils, which are selected with
great care and expense to this company.
30, from sanitary point Of view, no one
need ever fear any harmful result from
chewing "Kis-Me" Gum.
There are twenty eight travelling
statesmen representing "kis Me" Gum
in the different States OF the Union from
the Atlantic t. the Pacific, and when We
consider the high quality Of the goods
turned out by this company We need
not wonder at the great popularity II
has attended. The company does also
some export business, and will make
