THE HAYWOOD WE'LL
Develops Into a Mud and
Oil Gusher.

The popular interest in the oil
field was revived this week by
the announcement that Il mud
gusher was brought in at the
Haywood well, followed by a flow
of pure Oil the next day. The
report is that the oil spOuted
about fifteen feet during a few
seconds. These and other indi-
cations are most favOra BILE and
those who claim to know predict
that the bringing in of a genu-
inc gusher is only question of
short time.
Two things are now self-evi-
dent. There is Il tremendous
pressure of gas and a consider
able quantity of oil, and it is not
1T all improbable that the ex-
pected gusher will come in be-
fore long. The gas threw up
mud and sand in large quanti-
ties from a depth of 1900 feet.
/
Labutte it is an assured fact.
Scott and Dewey Haywood
visited the well and expressed
themselves as confident of sue
cess. The Moresi Brothers are
still boring. There also cOndi-
tiOns are very encouraging.

The present plan is that outlined in

No hope is entertained that anything

Whereas. the operators of these
] mines have failed after 20 weeks to
settle with their employees. and
Whereas. it is almost impossible to
