Of New York City he was an abso>
lutte success He may prove his

Cant. Mckee Talks of OIL Field fin
Texas.
Capt Thos. H. Mckee has returned to
this city after week spent in the oil re-
gions Of Texas.
Few people realize" said Capt. Mckee
to a Star reporter, the enormous quantity
of oil that is now available In Texas. 1t is
in the opinion of experts the most Won
derful Oil field in the world. 1 saw nine
flowing wells last Wednesday. The estimat-
ed quantity of oil that could be had from
the least of these wells is 10000 barrels a
day, and the measured quantity of the
largest was over 10000 barrels"
Capt. Mckee says the oil field now de-
veloped covers an area of about sixty by
sixty miles The big ''gushers," or flowing
wells, Of which he spoke are all located in
the same section Of the country. A mile is
the greatest distance between seven Of
them and the other two are six or eight
miles apart. They are owned, as Is three
fourths of the Oil land, by the Guffy Com
p&ny, which is, he said. supposed to repre-
sent people interested In the Standard OH
Company Those big wells are plugged.
Texas is bound to have great future
as a manufacturing state, said Capt. Nc
Kee "for the reason that oil can be had by
manufacturers at 80 cents barrel, which
is equivalent in steam power to West Vir-
etnia coal at $1.62 a ton. Already facto-
ries of various kinds are being introduced
where the oil Is available, and the first
thing such an establishment does is to
erect a tank for its fuel"

address of welcome: e
Mr. Mayor, my Fellow citizens: We have
had many warm and generous greetings as
we journeyed from the Potomac to the Pa
cifc slope, but none has been more inter-
esting or more generous and memorable
than the one which the people of Santa
Clara county and of San Jose accord us
today / observe that I face not only this
multitude Of Americans, but 1 face the
headquarters of q thousand old Ohioans
who, with my other fellow Citizens give
us welcome. We are all proud Of our

from the south. We are proud Of our
birthplace and of our state citizenship;
but, above all, we rejoice in the great ma

flag which represents liberty and law, and
the Constitution Of the nation that shelters
US all.
I'VE have seen everything In California:
we have eaten Of your fruits and your

your flowers: we have visited the ancient
mission churches, where the altar of re-
ligion was first raised, and whose chimes
have sounded through the centuries their
message Of hope and benediction; we have

every interest.
In peace or In war you have been faith
full. We live under Constitution that was
made for 100000 people. and yet it has
proved quite adequate for Is, ,OOO. 600 of peo-
pie. 1t has embraced within 1t every ma
tional duty and purpose, and has never
stood in the way of our development and
expansion. That instrument seems almost
to be inspired to carry forward the holy
mission Of liberty. 1t seems not to have
been made alone for those who framed it
ana their successors, but for all ages and
all mankind
ITO us, my fellow citizens, young and
old. the preservation of that Constitution
Is committed. 1t Is sacred instrument
and It Is sacred trust given to US to see

man in talking Of the matter last even

1T is silly in this age to try and
compare gas for street lighting with ccr.
trlrity. In the first place the electric
lights are more durable and more likely
to remain lighted. Sometime ago these

and they did not give satisfaction.

tins case the gas light would he IL light
in name only. On TIM other hand the
electric light company has Il pntrolmnn
who patrols the streets all night. As
soon ms a light is reported to be out
he hu>tleS out and repairs it.
Another matter to be- considered is the
quality of gas. If the gas to he furn-
iShrd the city, and it is to be inferred
that it will be, is Of the same quality
that is furnished to the houses and hu>i.
