THE OUTLOOK FOR OIL. An Ohio Expert Pleased with North
 Alabama.

AlaO4m4s
 Russellville, Oct 4.--(Special)-Mr. H. c. Mccoy, a member of the firm of Mo- Coy Bros, practical oil dealers of Leetimo Ohio, was asked today for his opinion of the oil outlook for oil in shis section of Alabama. Mir. Mccoy said:
 .I regard the oil outlook here as favorable as in any section have ever gone over. If you were to blindfold a man and transport him to the oil fields of Pennsylvania and Ohio. where the blind was removed, he would still think he was in Franklin County. Alabama. The foundation of the territory is the same and both the timbered and cleared lands look like the same classes of lands in Pennsylvania and Ohio The only dif- the class of the Improvements, this be- ing better in the northern fields. There Is bound to be oil here, and in my opinion its quality will be far superior to the Texas oils. We do not look for 'gushers'' like in the Beaumont fields. but we do look for oil In paying quantities and the grade will be 50 far ahead of the Texas product as to overcome the difference in output. s
 The Texas oil. as every one knows, is a low grade. useful only as fuel oil, while here. the product will be light illuminating oil. which in my opinion will demand at least $l,25 per barrel and find a ready market at such price,"
 Mir Mccoy has charge of the drilling at Cardova in Walker County and in the we'll which Is now going down at that place. he struck oil bearing sand at about 1000 feet, but the quantity was not suf- ficient and the drill Is still going down.

It Is not a perfect instrument, but 1t Is a great improvement over the old one and the common sense of the people of Alabama Is going to lead them to its support. Some things in 1t do not like and there are some things in 1t that the other fellow does not like. but 1t should be ratified as 1t is much better than the old one and feel sure 1t will win.'
