ry to commence drilling with. He ex poets 10 be prepared to go to a depth of 5000 feet, and to sink several wells, though he feels considerable confidence that he will catch the oil basin at the first attempt. That there has been good show for oil in the Gila valley has long been recognized by those ia millar with oil formation. The getting of producing field. particularly in the Stafford neighborhOod. would be an i'm mense proposition for a large section of developing and developed mining country within easy range. to which the cheap fuel oil would afford would be the greatest advantage. Globe. Morenci and Clifton are near by, and would in themselves provide a market for an immense output of petroleum.
 Beside the Stafford field, MT. Down ey expects to investigate the Tontc reservoir site district. where he be. lieves there is also good showing fos oil.

GCound Lately Secured and Drilling Equipment Now Ordered-suceess Would Mean Much to Mining Indus try-Prominent Visitors From Ora ham.

Among arrivals in the city last even
 ing were Hon Will Webb. of Pima, and John J. Birdno. editor of the Ora ham County Guardian. The gentle men came here from Tombstone. where they were from Graham county on court business. Both are prominently identified with Democratic politics in the Territory. Last night, however, they said they knew nothing whatever about anything that might be going on in the political arena.
 Mir. Webb will probably be the next speaker of the. Arizona Assembly. Re garding 'hiisg. cafnidfdacy and the probabil- ity of his rsuccess, Mr. Webb. person. ally. has nothing to say. further than that If he is made speaker of the house he will appreciate the honor
 Regarding conditions in the Gila Val ley. MT. Birdno states that research for oil is about to be commenced near Stafford by a strongly backed compa- ny, and that-much interest centers in misunderstanding IF. Fl. Downey, now of Los Angeles. butrformerly a Penn sylNania oil man. is at the head of the MT. Downey has been in the field for some time, and quietly located and secured options on about twenty thousand acres of land before giving out the object of his presence ID the section. The latter is in the heart of the artesian belt. about six miles south of Stafford. Mir. Downey is confident that there is oil under the ground he has chosen for exploitation, and entertains high hopes of the final outcome.
