completed che survey OF 100000 acres

The object Of the company is TO OBJ
tain possession Of lands containing xii.
sonite and asphaltum, Of which there
rs almost unlimited quantities. AS
mentioned above, this company has
now 100000 acres OF the best land there.
The reservation was thrown open to
the public under very peculiar condi-
uons The land was open to lcca-
ton only for the mining OF gilsonite and
hydrocarbons and for agriculture, and
not for the mining of minerals This
appears to be some kind Of confidenti-
al scheme, as the reservation is known
to be likely field for mining.
