NOW PUMPING OIL.
Very Encouraging Conditions at BouI'
der's Two Wells.

Boulder, Colo, Feb. 3.-The Head
light Oil Company has put Former
Senator johnson of Florence in charge
of the well at the Arnold ranch, and
his advent promises to be Of some i'm
mediate benefit to the company. 1t
has now been pretty well demonstrat-
ed that the style of pump employed
is useless when the oil has to be
drawn up for over half a mile, as is
the case in the Arnold well. Accord
ingly the pump has been taken out
and an older but more effective style
has been substituted, and this morn
ing the pumping was resumed. The
oil flows regularly and the quantity
more than justities the hopes of the
oil men who are interested.
The Mckenzie well is still idle wait
ing for the tank, which is delayed on
the road between Florence and Den
Yer. The railroad company has prom
ised that the tank shall arrive by
Wednesday at the latest. On Wednes
day, also, the sidetrack will be laid to
the well from the main track of the
Colorado 4 Southern, and then oil
will begin to flow. At present n heavy
iron cap Is screwed down over the
top of the casing in the big bore and
keeps intact the fluid that would 9TH
erwise ooze out all over the floor Of
the drill room.
Several times to-day the cap was
removed for the benefit of the curious
ones who had gathered at the place.
and the fact was verified that the oil
would overflow of its own force. Just
what the pumps will bring up re-
mains to be seen, but general conf
dence is felt that they will make the
Mckenzie wonderful producer.

APPEALS FOR CUBA.
General Wood Asks Congress to Grant
Them Relief From Tariff Duties.

Washington, Feb. "A circular let
ter has been received by members of
the Senate from General Wood mill
tary governor Of Cuba, urging conces-
sions on Cuban sugar coming into the
United States. 1t is dated Havana,
January Both. General Wood says:
Il desire to invite your most earnest
attention and consideration to the eco
nomic conditions existing in Cuba to-
day, conditions which threaten to bring
ruin to her principal industries. sugar
and tobacco, unless prompt and etii-
cient relief is given. With the ruin of
her two principal industries we must
give up all hope of II stable govern
ment, for unless Cuba can sell her
products at reasonable profit it is
obvious that their cultivation must
cease, bringing idleness and hunger to
her people.
I'VE have established a reasonably
efficient government in Cuba, with all
those numerous adjuncts which pertain
to stable, civilized administration,
such as schools, courts, sanitation, pub
lie works, etc. The outlay for the
maintenance of these necessary adj
juncts to the government Is necessarily
large, and the revenue therefor is de-
rived principally from materials pur-
chased in exchange for sugar and to-
baccO. These great industries are now
in Il most critical condition, especially
sugar, which is being sold at 4 price
less than the cost of production. The
planter must grind his cane, even at Il
moderate loss, for his entire fortune
is in the fields and is liable TO be swept
away by fire or deterorate from the
effects of the elements"
After giving figures concerning the
cost of production, etc, General Wood
says that a reduction of thrty-three
and One-third per cent. will give an
average profit of 4S cents on each 300
pounds of sugar produced, and that
such reduction should be the minimum.
He further says:
Each day of delay in giving relief
is dangerous. When once the crash
comes relief will be of little value eX-
cept to the speculator who may gath
er up the wrecks here; the people OF
the country, who have virtually recon-
structed it in three years, will be
ruined, and we shall have to stop ana
reOccupy the country, or continue in
occupation and do over again the work
which we have spent thousands of
lives and much treasure in doing up
to date. The situation demands relief,
and it should be immediate and lib
eral.'
