Oil Notes.
YESTERDAYS MARKET.

On Wednesday forenoon last the
John L. Dunn Co. struck what is said
to be the largest gas we'll yet lin the
Dudley field, on the Ward lot. This is
good news, not because there has been
or is likely to be any shortage from
present supply, but becauses it places
our town although now enjoying cheap
er fuel gas than most any town in the
state, in a position to offer manufact-
uring industries cheap and reliable
fuel, which is the best inducement that
can be offered to them to locate here.
Our water works have been tried and
are a success, and with cheap gas fuel,
plentiful water supply, cheap freight
rates by reason of competing roads, it
would seem that we are in position to
secure something in the manufactur-
ing line.-Caldwell Republican.
