Scio, O., January 2S.-New producing
wells are being added to the list,jn this
field every day. Indeed it is claimed
that the number of wells drilled in this
field this month exceeds the number
drilled in any other field in like time.
Over forty producing wells and two
dry holes is the record up to this time
1t is estimated that $50 rigs are up
and more are planned. With the Amos
well dry and the poor showing Of oil
on the John McLandsborough farm the
outlook for a northeast and southwest
extension is not encouraging. The we'll
on the Deswald farm two miles east OF
Scio is dry, and this causes the pros
poets for an eastern extension of the
field to not look promising. Next
week will see the completion of "a
number of town lot wells Forty-four
wells have been completed in this field.
The names of the persons owning land
and lots on which wells have been
drilled in the past week, are: ]. F.
Grissinger. J. Strayer No. 2, Alice
Heron, Geo. w. Wagner, ]. F. Cairns,
Jas. Scott No. 2, McSlroy lot, Kimmel
farm, Keepers lot.
The rush of speculative people to this
place keeps up. Postmaster Masters
mail is deluged with inquiries from all
parts of the country about work, the
extent Of the field, etc. Town property
will soon be punched as full Of holes
as pepper box lid. Due to clamor
from oil men who cannot get accommo-
dation here and because of the daily in
flux of visitors, the Panhandle has ar
ranged for another accommodation
train which will run from Pittsburg
to Dennison, beginning tomorrow.
The Sargent well is the best well in
the field, showing for nearly 40 bar
rels. The college is surrounded by
wells, and one of the college property
wells is doing about so barrels The
faculty has arranged so that the 230
students can get board for $3.50 per

bacco was first introduced as an ag,

Ghi1an in 1876. The seed was imported
from Snmsoun, in Turkey, and the in
production of the plant into the north

of introducing the practice of cigarette
smoking throughout the country. It
has become so general that even the
lowest peasant now goes about with

nubble-bubbles, and chibouks. or long

TELL ALL ABOUT 1T, PLEASE.

Friend Snyder, of the Shepherdstown
RegistC admits that the tin plate business
has thriven wondrously" and that it is
zone of the typical children of high tar
iff. When the tariff was placed on tin
plate by a Republican congress, forty
eight speeches were made by Democrats,
prophesying that it could not be produced
in this country, and Democratic orators
burlesqued the venture. Well, it has
grown and is prosperous in spite of those
terrible datribes hurled at and against it
Now, our Jefferson county friend lam
poons it as a trust, and says it has run up
the price of tin about a HUNDRED per cent.
Suppose it has, the prices OF tin plate and
tin goods are but slightly higher than
vixen the tariff was placed on tin plate,
whilst millions OF dollars have been invest
ed here ia the business, and thousands of
men are employed in tin plants. All this
means something. Why not tell the
readers of the Register that all the manu-
facturers of tin plate in free-trade England
are in a combine, and that they have made
even a greater advance in prices than has
been made in the United States Repeal
the tariff here, and place Us at the mercy
OF grasping English trust. That is

THEFFARMER AND PROSPERITY

The recent election results should coh-
vince any intelligent person that the farm
ers know better than to fight the party
and policy which has benefited them
Prwes Save increased in beet-cattle, wool
and, nation and other farm products are
bringing good prices.
Considering the contrast between the
present Republican era and the Demo
cratic hard times, which the selfish Dem
ocratic politicians helped to bring about,
utterly unmindful of the welfare Of the
great mass OF people, it will be no easy
matter for them or any Of the Democratic
papers to efface it by the new issues and
misrepresentation The farmers may
have their theories about expansion
and trusts, but they know good thing
when they, have it. and care more about
keeping it than they do about any other
plan OF their politics.
They realize now as well as do the la
boring men, that Republican policies
brought the prosperity they enjoy and
they are not going to lose the benefits Of
those policies for the sake Ct gratifying
politicians in their effort next year to eleci
a Democratic President like Rryan. Yes
BRYAN believed in war, but was against
the results; be loved the volunteers, but
was against their achievements; he want
ed peace but repudiated the treaty 81
peace; DC reyereo the flag, bat wished 70
sae 10 hauled down; he respected the
Government but would nol maintain its
authority against rebels; be loved the
fathers, but detested their policy Of am
nexation.
No, the IA mers are content. They
will be found supporting the Republican
party in 1900, knowing full well that the
success Of the party means continuation
Of good times. They are satisfied with a
good thing and propose to let good enough
alone
