STRUCK OIL.
That is What They Found In Artesian
Well Northwest of CIaremont.

Seth Gilborne has just completed a
we'll for Hatton&Son five miles north
west Of Claremont which developed a
new feature for artesian wells IN this
vicinity. Ata depth Of 700 feet in
a vein of fine sand a slight flow was
struck and about one third Of it was
oil. The boring was continued on
down to depth Of 925 feet where the
strongest flow in this part Of the state
was struck, the stream Shooting full
size Of the pipe ten feet in the air.
The formation found in boring this
well differs considerably from that

ANNUAL REVIEW.

+ 4 ~ i . aa 4
The December number Of The OAK
otan is given up entirely to the Annual
Review OF the Progress of South Dak-
otafor 1902. Itis complied by Doane
Robinson secetarys Of the State, His,
torical Society. AS the secetary says
it is completed "purely from the his
torical motive; that is to set down a
record Of the general conditions,
whether good or bad that in the future
we may have an authority to which
we may turn with confidence, to learn
the events and conditions of the year."
| Ipterpersed throughout the review
are 25 cuts of public buildings and
farm scenes in South Dakota. A
most gratifying condition existing
throughout the state is declosed, and
the author says that the year 1902 is
the sixth in which South Dakota has
surpassed all of the other states in
the per capita production of new
wealth".
Every phase of the peoples life and
achievements is touched upon; social,
industrial, educational, political,
commercial, agriculture, hortocultur-
al, financial. Attention is called to a
notable feature of the year, politi-
cally: "The disappearance Of the popu-
| list party, after a career of IL years
during which period it had exercised
wide influence in state affairs, having
controlled two legislatures and cleo
ted one United States senator and held
the gubnatorial ot11ce for four years"

most respectfully but earnestly protest against the

This we feel is inadequate, unjust partial and
hardship upon citizens. who have patrioticaIv

are, think, negative to the cOnsidera-
ton of the pleadings submitted by counsel and the
satisfactory adjudication Of the differences of those
involved in litigation. We have observed that many
of cur best citizens have neglected the right and
duty OF suffrage in order to avoid under the pres
