Some of the more out-spoken OF his

letter 10 the governor he designates the
pace OF honor, during the coming dedi-
cation of the exposition building at st.
Louis to the Oklahoma National Guards
including the Troop \. band. the battal-
ion. or more. OF the infantry.
Governor Francis says that the escort
to the president and the first place in
the grand parade. prior to the dedication
ceremonies. will be given Oklahoma. ac-
count OF her being the youngest child Of
the Louisiana Purchase. Such an honor
will do much to give Oklahoma the prop
er standing at the exposition proper, and
will also advertise the territory above
all other states at the dedication cere-
monies. The matter should certainly be
taken advantage OF by the Oklahoma au-
thoritie.
Governor Ferguson, regarding the invi-
tation. says that he will use his inf.u-
cree toward accepting /; in full that is
taking the militia with him on that &C.

TO BORE FOR GAS.
Found in Kay County but Not In
Payinu Quantities.


Paying Quantities.
Ponca City. o. T., Feb. 1S.-The Cour-
Ter says: In talk before the CONNER
cial club last night Lincoln Mckinley.
secretary Of the Newkirk Gas and Mineral
company, told of the progress that had
been made along the line of prospect
ing for gas and oil in this county. Mr..
Mckinley has made thorough study of
the subject and his statements and ex-
plantations are interesting and instruc-
tive
He SAYS that the investigations so far
made show that nowhere in Oklahoma
are the prospects for securing both oil
and gas in paying quantities so good
as here in Kay county.
His company has already drilled two
holes northeast of Kildare, in both of
which gas and oil were struck in cons;d-
cradle quantities. the oil proving on anal
ysis 10 be Of superior quality.
These wells were sunk by contrac-
tors. The company has now bought one
of the best drilling outfits that can he
procured employed expert drillers and is
now prosecuting the work under its own
direction. The outfit cost about $500 and
is paid for. Work is now in progress On
land adjoining Newkirk and it is expected
that in about thirty days a sufficient
depth will have been reached to demon
strate the presence or absence of gas IN
that locality.
when that is done the company will
be prepared to sink a well or wells at
Ponca City. provided our people are WILL
ing to provide the ways and means.
The general opinion seems to be that
this proposition of the Newkirk company
should be accepted. and the matter was
referred TO the executive committee Of
the Commercial club. with instructions
to prepare a plan for undertaking the
work and report 1t TO the club at the
next meeting"
