CROP PROSPECTS FAVORABLE.
The Uncommon Amount Of Winter zIOfs-
ture Makes an Abundant Harvest
Almost a Certainty.

Never since the the first settlement
Of Sherman county has the soil been
vet as deeply with winter moisture. It
is claimed By some that in 1891 and in
1888 there was as m1ch moisture. But
many are Of the opinion that this year
the ground is wet more deeply than at
any time since the county was settled,
that is, at this time Of the year.
Crops in 1891 we're exceptionally
good, and in 1898 good yields we're har-
vested All signs point to the present
year as a good one to put in all kinds
Of grain. The farmers have been very
busy for the past week seeding to
spring wheat, and the good work viii
90 on for the next six weeks. Many
farmers viii put in several hundred
acres.
All experience has shown that when
We get plenty Of winter moisture, It
win be a good crop year. It is a fact
that when there is sufficient moisture to
carry small grain through to the sum
mer rains good crops have been raised.
It is a scientific fact that moisture at
tracts moisture, and that early and
timely rains may he expected when the
conditions are as this year. Hot winds
are prevented, and extreme hot wealth
CT hardly occurs when there is a large
local evaporation 1t is the general
opinion that this coming season viii be
highly favorable to the growth Of both

THE STATE WINS
United States Supreme Court Decides
Indiana Oil Case

United States Supreme Court Decides
Indiana Oil Case.
Indianapolis. April 10.-The Indiana
oil case was decided in favor of the
state by the supreme court Of the
United States yesterday.
The statute Of Indiana prohibits any
oil well from being left open more
than As hours after gas is struck, and
provides that the well must be secure
ly capped to prevent the escape of
natural gas. The Standard Oil com
pany. under the name of the Ohio Oil
company, refused to obey the law, say
ing that Ii was unconstitutional in that
it deprived the company OF its prop
erty without due process Of law.
The state brought three suits, one
for penalties, another for injunction
and third involving both PROPOSE
tions. The law was sustained by the
trial court and by the supreme court
Of Indiana. The company then took
the case. by writ Of error, to the su-
preme court of the United States. The
main question presented was whether
natural gas percolating through the
earth was a subject of police regula-
by individuals.
The counsel for the company argued
that there was such private ownership
in the gas as to permit the private
owner to waste or conserve the gas at
his will. The state insisted that the
rights of citizens were superior to the
rights Of individuals and the decision
handed down yesterday uphOlds this
