OIL STRATA PENETR ATED.
Several Barrels of Oil Taken from the
Hsle, but no Gusher Yet.

The difficulty that has been causing
| so much trouble at the oil well since
the big blowout a few weeks ago has
at last been overcome and Saturday
afternoon the drill penetrated the oil
strata and several barrels were taken
from the well during Saturday evening
and Sunday. A report was circulated
that gusher was expected in Satur-
day night, causing few enthusiasts
to make fruitless trip to the field

inson, and after considerable discus

until the contract depth was reached
and not develop the present strata.
Tuesday more oil was brought up
and gas is causing some trouble. In
an interview Mr.. Keoughan is quoted
as having said: II expect to see the
well come in all right and be one of
the biggest and best oil producers
that we haver brought in. OF course,
L cannot tell after the blow out lust
what the conditions are below, but so
far, serious as the proposition is, we
are dealing with it all right, and | still
think that the we'll will be saved,
though the gas is still troublesome.
On the other hand. we have an abund-
ance of oil coming up, and other cir
cumStances lead me to believe we will
bring her in all right, but it may be a
slow process

One Man Carries an Election.

The following is part of an article
recently appearing in the Times.
Democrat:
SAT an election to determine wheth.
er or not whisky should be sold in
the village of Tioga, La, village
near Alexandria, the electorate de-
cided unanimously in favor of the
hard drinks. The unanimity of
the election is not surprising when it
is known that only one vote was east
in this important election. A number
OF patriots were registered, but I'M
fortunately they had not paid their
poll tax for two years preceding the
election, and consequently they could
not vote. Only one elector was quail
flied to vote under the law of the
state, and consequently he swung the
election as he desired. The fact that
he desired to swing the election in
favor of whiskey will be regarded by
the prohibitionists as unfortunate, but
they have themselves to blame. They
did not choose to qualify as voters,
and the fact that the only man who
paid his just obligation to the state
was whisky drinking Democrat, :"
drinking and the patriotic impulse
that makes sacrifice are somehow con-
nected.
OF course, things are not what they
should bewhen an election is decided by
a single voter, but how is it to be pre-
vented, when only one voter complies
with the law? This voter will carry
his precinct unanimously for the can
didate of his choice in the primary
which will be held for congressman
within the next two weeks. which is
perhaps better than that the nomina-
ton should be made by dummies who
have no legal vote. Whatever else
may happen elsewhere, Tioga is safe,
and candidates need not lose any
sleep over the result from that pre-
cinct. For the moment however, he
has the decision of momentous
questions in his hand, and it is to
be hoped that he will not sell out
his franchise for a mess OF pottage or
anything else. There is a great temp
tation for such man to ACCEPT a
bride for his vote, but the fact that
this patriot paid his poll tax in the
years in which it fell due is an indi-
cation that the country is safe
in his keeping. Lawmaker of Tioga,
stand firm, remembering that your
God-given and tax-paid right to vote
is the heritage of a freeman. and let
no octupus corrupt you with the
Doodle that perisheth.
