has not been many months since
the town Of Ardmore under threats
from the Oklahoma & Western
railway company. that a rival town
would be built. was compelled to
raise about thirty thousand dollars
to induce that road TO enter the
city. II took the longest and most
expensive route through the city;
and nothing was heard at the time
about the adyissbility Cf the City
Council informing them. that they
could not get through the city
without tie councils permission.
Indeed, that road is now asking
permission Of the City Council to
use the streets and alleys. which
permission will doubtless be
granted.

our people that it asks no bunos.
but that its purpose is to build a
competing line through Ardmore.
II, before it has asked permission
Of the City Council to build its
road through our city, we unnvces-
sarily tell it that ii shall be the
purpose Of the City Council to
dictate It's road bed. this is equiya-
lent to telling it that it cannot get
through the city at all. II this
road cannot be persuaded to
change its preliminary survey, it
certainly cannot be driven to 1t by
any action Of the City Council.
believe it would be most un-
wise to pass the resolution now
pending, and believe furthei that
the people who are interested in
getting other roads into Ardmore
should take the time to advise with
their respective councilmen against
the passage Of this resolution"

MOST PROFITABLE FIELD
IN THE STATE

DR.. J. McClelland Henderson of Ian.
der, who is in charge of the splendid
display of Fremont county oils at the
Industrial convention, in the course of
an interview with the editor of the
Wind River M%ountaineer last week
said:
with regard to the stage of develop
ment which petroleum in Fremont
county has attained, well it may truly
be said, that this county ranks as the
most prolific field for oil in the whole
Of Wyoming and a field which, in my
opinion will be found to excel all the
others both in extent and longevity.
Never before have the oil II of
this county been developed to such a
degree or so rapidly as they have been
within the last half year.
The length Of the proved up oil
field on the Shoshone Anticanal has,
through the well sinking that has been
carried out during the last six
HlOllLuS, bttu hlOle hhi qud<ii uliVu'
and there are now in the county five
such wells as cannot at the present
time be equaled in any part of the
state, the Oldest of which have been
spouters for the last seventeen years.
"As to capacity, gauging it under ex-
listing pressure, only fancy figures can
be obtained. but, of course, the perma-
nent average of the wells cannot be as
certained until the head of pressure,
which is very great. has been allowed
to flow off, and this 1t is impossible to
do until we are equipped with a very
large storage capacity, with which we
are not yet supplied"
DR.. Henderson is the sole owner of
the Henderson oil wells. He is an
American citizen and is developing
the oil filed with American capital. No
English syndicate have yet begun op'
Grafton in that field, as has been so of
ten stated in different sections of the
state.
