OIL Exclte..e.t.

The oil excitement here the

New companies are being orga-

A company was organized here
last week called the COLORADO

undoubtedly the best company
organized in this vicinity to date.
The members OF the board and
officers of the company are as
follows: j. T.. Chapson. president
E. L. Foster, vice president; +. L.
Chapson, treasurer; ID. ii. Staley,
secretary.
This company has secured a
block of 1000 acres of land on
what is known as the Chapson
Bros. ranch on West Fork, where
they intend to sink a well as soon
as they can have the machinery
shipped in. They have Several
other good locations, but at pres
ent they will devote their time to
this special block of land. =.
The Blanco Basin is another
good oil territory and different
com mpanies have blocks of land up
there, some for speculative pur-
poses, while others are there to
develop the field.

THERE Is one thing In connection
with the tragedy at Buffalo for which
the American people ought to be CRATE
full. 1t Is the fact that the assassina-
tion did not occur year ago when the
country was in the heat Of campaign.
Had 1t occurred then McKinley's per-
sonal and political friends would have
charged that his political enemies were
responsible for it. They would have
taken up the more radical uttersnces
Of partisan enemies and endeavored to
prove that they at least encouraged It,
1t would have made permanent and
lasting bitterness that would have
been utterly without reason. We have
yet to hear of the arst man who has
even intimated that It was in any way
connected with partisan politics.

WITH the coming Of the vice presI-
dent to the presidential chair there Ia
more or less of u feeling Of uneaslness
and uncertainty, For this there are
various reasons. While ii does not
necessarily mean anything, the coun-
try bas not been fortunate with her
vice presidents, Fillmore was the
arst vice president, He filled out the
term made vacant by tho death of
General Taylor, He was not re-
garded as successful president
though not such failure as some
after him. Tyler who was elected vice
president on the ticket with General
William Henry Harrison was the next
and much worse failure, He
straightway alienated himself from
his party and made himself 30 unpopu-
lar that his neighbors after ward
elected him road overseer, Everyone
knows the story of the failure Of An.
drew Johnson who was impeached
and came within one vote Of being
ousted from office, Chester A, Ar
thur who filed out Garleld's term was
seemingly an exception and W as re-
garded as q good president. but though
he wished a nomination for the presi-
dency for the succeeding term, ii was
denied him by his party, In all these
cases the trouble has chiefly been that
the new president has had too great
ambition without the capacity for
leadership. They have spurned their
advisors and dictated their own poll
cies without being able to carry through
proper support, Arthur's success
was because he attempted little, an
togOnI2ed no one and therefore while
no one could find much to commend,
neither could they find much to criti-
else. An element that makes an un-
usual degree of uneasiDeSs and ap-
prehenslon at present Is the bold
and dashing role played heretofore by
the new president. He is everywhere
regarded as headstrong, courageous,
and uncomfortable, He 10 In very
many respects the kind of man in
construction that his predecessors " no
have succeeded to the presidency have
been, There Is no doubt but that

respectability, are just now guessing

changes Ia our national policies which
are Fundamental and viii probably be
everlasting. With tbese changes the
name Of Mckinley will always be very
closely associated, Whether right OF
wrong time will tell but we have never
been able and are not now, TO con
vince ourself that they arc right And
though the establishment Of these new
European IollCes may make the heart
sick, and even though they may be yet
demonstrated to be wrong, the blame
cannot be attached In very great
measure to William Mckinley with
the people who gave their votes for

Mr., Mckinley led the fight for those
principles, but the American people

THERE Is much discussion as to the
sanity of Czolgosz, the assassin. Ia
ken from q medical and scientific staAd-
point there 10 not much doubt but that
he Is insane. His acts and theories are
so irrational AMI abhOrent to the aver
age mind that II warrants the assertion
that he is off balance mentally. How
ever it is not any form Of lunacy of
which Jurisprudence may take cognl-
2ance. Yet peculiar as 1t may be, 1t
does seem to come under the usual lie.
gal rule for insanity, that of being in
capable of distinguishing right from
wrong, The theories of Czolgosz had
evidently led him up to believe he was
doing duty, and unbalanced his mind
to the extent that he did not in this
case distinguish right from wrong.
And yet his case IL one which should
not commit him to lunatic asylum.
1t is not the place for him. His crime
must be punished because the protec
tion Of society and peace and order re-
quire 1t. Czolgosz is less to blame than
some of the leaders OF the society.
They teach the doctrines and incul-
cate the crimes, even if they do not
actively conspire to their performance,
but have not the courage or sincerity
to do the act. He has both to the ex.
tent that he is willing to take all con.
sequences and punishments which are
sure to follow. To be sure there are
probably some people In the world who
are so insanely seeking notoriety that
for it they would perform such a crime
Such was the case with Giteau, the
slayer Of Garfield. But 1t is evidently
not the case with the man who assassi-
mated Mckinley
