PROF. LAKES
OIL REPORT.
Rocky Ford's Chances as Good as Other
Localities Where Boring Is
in Progress.

The first portion of the report
is devoted 10 a technical geologi-
cal description of that portion Of
Otero &C unity lying south of Rocky
Ford. Five pages Of typewriter
descriptive matter bring Prof.
Lakes to this conclusion:
$50. IN our search for oil we
must abandon all hopes OF the
Montana shales of the well known
Florence oil horizon, because they
are entirely removed from our
area. The same applies to the
Laramie coal beds. We must,
therefore, seek for oil in a lower
and yet little tried horizon, viz:
In tile Colorado shales and lime
stones, and in the other geologi-
cal strata lying beneath them down
to the granite, in which last forma-
tion all hope OF oil is in vain. or
these lower series of rocks we have
beneath Otero county thickness
of about 1900 feet before granite
is reached.
After giving description of
the various strata of this region
Prof. Lakes says:
"From this it will appear that a
hole or well put down at Rocky
Ford or in the immediate vicin-
ity of La Juntu would have to pass
through about $500 to 5000 feet
of sedimentary rock before ending
in granite. This depth is quite
within the limit of the average
we'll"
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1902-03-21

As to tho hest plnc II to drill,
Prof. Lakes says:
"Considering all circumstances.
the region around Rocky Ford
stands ns fair u clinnc. of oil m
many others in Colorado where
boring il now in operation. In
the neigLborhood Of Rocky Ford
l wonld suggest the putting down
Of three wells. One u deep trial
well $500 to 1900 feet. near the
city Limit: another on the roai
between Rocky Ford nn,l the Pur-
sntorie valley ut Lone Tree ranch.
and n third in the Bent canon Of
tho Cedar Hills. To this we
might add a fourth ON the slope Of
the valley Immediately north OF
the Cedar Hills, on the local rolls
plniuly seen there, r..
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1902-03-21

After speaking of oil being
found in the Plenderleith well Mt
the depth of 300 feet, and in the
Santa Fe well ut La Junta at n
depth of ,1O0 feet, and reviewing
other generally favorable geologi-
cal indications. Prof. Lakes says:
Gas regards the actual occur
renee of oil found in wells in til is
region we have the evidence of the
Plenderleith well, put down be-
tween Rocky Ford and La Jnnta,
in the Colorado shales. The oil was
found partially filling the hole of
some 300 feet depth after the well
had for some time been nban-
doned, owing to the tools having
stuck i'll it. The oil is of green
ish color, of fine Illuminating
quality. There was no difficulty
in securing n pint of it at the well,
showing Mt nny rate that oil does
exist in this region either in the
Colorado shales or in the Dakota
sandstones beneath them"
Similar conclusions were drawn
from the presence of oil in the
Santa Fe well at La Junta. These
two authentic instances of the oc-
currence Of oil shows that it does
exist in the vicinity, either in the
cretaceous strata or i'll the under
lying jura trias sufficiently to en-
courage further research and bor-
ing.

The CONGRESSIONAL PUZZLE.

PRESIDENT OXNARD ON

In the last issue OF Collier's
Weekly, the leading illustrated
paper Of the union. Henry T. o.
nard. President Of the American
Beet Sugar ca. has = long and able
article entitled: "A Paxzle for
Congress" Cuba or the Trusts.
from which we make the following
extracts:
At any rate. the proposed re-
duction in the duty npon Cuban
sugar would not inure. q. the beu-
eft OF the Cuban planter or the
man ufacturrr. bat would inure 10
the benefit OF the American Sugar
Refining Company. because that
company controls the American
market for raw sugar. aud unless
the Cuban planter accepted the
price named by that company lie
would have tI fall back on the
"world's Market" which would
pay him n still lower price. The
American lset sugar industry
Inns made such progress. and has
proved ~ conclnsively that it will
eventually be nble & furnish =
large part OF the consumption OF
the United States ut n low price.
that it is worth protecting during
its development.
The attack upon the beet sugar
industry is All attack upon tlie
only important industry in regard
to whici, the American farmer en-
joys the benefit of protection.
lie farmer is required to pay pro-
,ect..d prices for almost every
article which hs uses ar consumes,
anL it is now proposed to deprive
him OF the benefit which he is
obtaining from the protection OF
an industry which il furnishing
him with new aud profitable use
for his land, For these and other
reasons the beet sugar growers OF
this country claim that it is uu-
necessary, and would be unwise
aud unfair, to reduce the duty up
on sugar exported from the islan,l
OF Cuba to the United States.

work in advance of the anticipated
time His family in Jackson receive
encouraging reports each day. The
other bishops in the south will assist
in the Mississippi work through the
winter, having been requested to do
so by Bishop Thompson, and such of
the work during the month of No
vember will be i'll charge of Bishop
Gailor. of Tennessee. Great regret
is felt that Bishop Thompson will be
unable TO attend the corner stone GER
emory at the new st. Andrews
church in Jackson on the 18th of No

Thompson urged the building of a
fine edifice in the capital city which
could also be used for cathedral pur-
poses, and as meeting place for the
annual diocesan council sessions, and
the new St. Andrews will be con-
summation of his desire.
