PUSHING DEVELOPMENT.
The keystone Oil Company Has
Bright Prospects for Future.

While new oil companies are being
formed to operate in the Florence
fields, the people should not lose sight
of the work being done by some of the
older corporations.
The Keystone Oil company for iu-
stance is vigorously prosecuting the
work of developing it's territory.
which lies in most favored locality
south OF the city. This company
owns 1884 acres of deed oil right land
the deeds and abstracts of which are
in the office of the secretary. 1t is
entirely surrounded by pumping wells,
some of which are the largest pro-
ducers in the Florence field The
company already has one producing
well, and it has string of tools down
400 feet in second hole about 500
feet northwest of the pumping we'll
The big we'll of the United Oil
company, the one which WAS brought
in at about 5000 feet, is only eighty
rods distance from the Keystone; the
Griffith wells which have made Mr..
Griffith an independent fortune are
just to the west; and the big well of
the Florence Consolidated is only
about 300 yards to the east. In fact
the lands of the company are entirely
surrounded by big wells, making their
location as good as the best in the
entire field
As was stated above the oil rights
OF l4s4 acres are decided to the com
pany so that they have no cause for
worrying over expiring leases or any
thing of that kind There is no limit
to the time in which they can work
their territory.
The officers and directors of the
N JbfltHs
W. p Lloyd. vice president; j. Victor
McCandless, secretary; Charles Neely,
treasurer; J B Cunningham, director.
These are all conservative business
men, and they are looking well to the
best interests of their stock holders.
The company has still limited
amount of treasury stock for sale
which is being offered for the low
price of & cents a share. the proceeds
of which will be used in the further
development of the company's terri
tory. All orders should he addressed
to the secretary.

An Epidemic Spreading.

1t is certainly surprising with what
rapidity an epidemic will spread, in
spite Of all precautions which may
be taken. For example, we will cite
the case of Hasslers. the cash grocer.
The reputation he has secured for
selling the highest grade of groceries
at the lowest prices ever quoted in
this city, has spread from home to
home until 1t would now be an utter
impossibility to check it. OF course.
the most conservative admit his prices
really represent other grocers' cost.

condition of affairs existed at the
Springs. He gave ont two kilograms
which he had received during the
night. One was from the chairman
of the board of county commissioners,
which stated that the strikers at the
Portland had threatened life and prop
erty, and that the situation demanded
that the troops be retained, at least
the two Colorado Springs companies.
The other telegram was signed by
business men and bankers of the
Springs saying there was grave danger
and they therefore asked that the
troops be retained.
The governor also gave out state
ment to the effect that President
Meyer had violated his agreement.
He said Mr.. Meyer had agreed that
there should be no strike of the
miners provided the troops should be
withdrawn. This the governor
agreed to. but. in the face of this
President Meyer had ordered strike
of the miners employed in all mines

were notified before noon today to at
ouce cease shipping ore to the san p
lers and reduction plants of the
United States Reduction compaI Y.

Colorado City, Florence, and Canon

order means that strike will become
effective at O'Clock this afternoon.
The mine owners expressed no sur

is evident that they intend to ignore
the demands of the miners,
At 3 O'Clock President Meyer had
received no reply from the mine own
ers and it is expected that in one hour
1900 miners will be idle in the dis
