OIL FLOWS ALL ABOUT.
Gushing From the Ground With
Waters of Many Springs.

The recent oil and gas discoveries have
put many to observing more closely oil
indications in springs and streams which
they have noticed for years, without ever
a thought that beneath their feet might
lay wealth incalculable.
W. M. Early reports that on the old
Wisner place, three and one-half miles
west of Colfax, which he now owns, is a
spring in gulch from which an oily sub
stance flows out with the water and it
can be traced for 40 rods or more along
the stream flowing from the spring.
When tested by rubbing between the
fingers oil is plainly shown. When the
rivulet is damned a heavy oil scum col
lects on the pond. This was first no.
ticed four years ago, but nothing was
thought of it until the recent discoveries
at other places.
On the farm of James Smith, six miles
north of Colfax are strong oil indica-
tions in spring, which is 30 tainted
that the water is unfit for use.
Strong indications have also been no.
ticed for many years in a spring on the
farm OF |. b. Harris, one mile north OF
Colfax, and also at the Lloyd place near
the fair grounds,
The many small tests made so
thoroughly demonstrate the presence OF
oil at different places that many are be-
coming convinced that it is only needed
to bore to find great gushers.

RAILROAD BILLS Up
Preston Commission Bill Favor
ed BY the Senate.
Opinion That Division of Support
With Any Other Measure
Would Prove Fatal.

Olympia, Wash, Jan. 23.-By ma
iority of one vote the senate today de-
cided not to vest the appointive power
of the proposed railway commission in
the governor, but to have the lieutenant
governor and auditor participate in
naming the commission. Eight repub-
licans cast their votes with the demo-
Gratis. The senator's who favor the rail-
way and oppose commission PROPOSE
tons made several attempts to secure
postponement of action and delay the
vote, but there was majority which
favored consideration Immediately, and
the railroad senators were beaten at
their filibustering tactics.
Senator Hall voted for and Senator
Crow against the measure.
Will Introduce a Maximum Bill.
Representative Rosenhaupt of Spo-
kane will tomorrow introduce bill low
ering the maximum grain freight rate
from 81 % to $3.50. Tie 1925 rate was
the compromise reached by the 1897
legislature. An unsuccessful attempt
was made two years ago to pass a
graduated freight rate bill with $3.50 as
the maximum.
