opinions in Bryan AZ to the exi.-
tence of oil throughout this section
within the reach ofthe drills. Why
should Bryan people wait for the
oil pro'pecto-s from aiar to cone
in, secure leases and options, and
reap the principal profits from this
promising field?
4 stock company, on the coop
eratiye plan, composed principally
Of Bryan people, could be organized
with a little effort ON the part Of
some clear. headed energetic men.
The principle Of cooperation has
been successfully applied in many
lines, such a. insurance, building
and Loan Associations, cotton fac.
tories, gold mining aud various
other industries. Why not in Dor.
ing for oil2 The idea Is this; it is
plan TO make the poor mans
dollar earn Just as much az the
rich mans dollar. 5000 small in.
vestors contributing 500 apiece
(by installments) contribute just
rs much as five rich men contrib.
uting 100000 each, or ten contrib.
uting $50, 600 each, OF one hundred
contributing $1,000 each.
The money is not all needed at
once, and need not, therefore, be
paid all At once. A man who could
not pay 800 down, could pay that
amount, and not miss IL, in ten
monthly installments Of $40 each.
IL gives the man of moderate means
a chance; the salaried man, the
wage Garner, even tia poor school
teacher of meager salary, could
make an investment that might
provide an endowment for an un-
salaried and unpensioued old age.
Should no oil be found, the loss
would not fall heavily upon any
one, for there will be few heavy
investors. Should such an enter.
prise prove a success in finding oil
what would it not mean to the
substantial progress, Of Bryan?
Say that a company 10 be called

should be organized and capital

thousand shares, par value : 1 each.
Let 10000 shares be offered for

cash fund Of $4,000 to begin oper.
atoms. Then let another block Of
treasury stock for deyelopemsnt
purposes be offered at 10 cents a
share payable in installments as
follows:
500 shares, ljc per share, S75

1000 shares, ljc per share, $3.50

5000 shares, ljo per share, $3.50

10000 shares, ljc per share, ST.,
500 in % payments $50 each.
In clubs of 10000 shares, $1,000
in 80 payments of 800 each, or at
the rate of s. per month on each
thousand for 30 months. This will
provide ample funds from month
10 month.
The country towns contiguous
to Bryan could each raise a clut
of 10000 shares. Nearly every
citizen Of Bryan could take from
500 to 5000 shares. To be truly
cooperative, no single sub'crietion
should be accepted for more thar
10000 shares, and none for less
than 500 on installments. The
price Of shares should be gradually
raised, as development progresses
and still upon the installment
plan. As fast as one well /,

GENERAL STATEMENT.

While the association is financially

property has been greatly improved
by the purchase of the two Cobb
barns, and with the building of new
horse barn, chicken shed and a
fountain in the Fair House, are all
substantial improvements, and show
good progress.
There seems to be some misunder-
standing as to the number of complt-
meutary tickets issued. All of these
tickets had coupons attached, so that
we could tell exactly the number that
were used each day. The whole num-
Der issued was l5l, the number used
on Wednesday was 32, on Thursday
50, and on Friday "a.
The total number of entries made in
all departments except the races, was
1898. This should be increased if
possible.
