company had sunk four wells and was
engaged in active drilling He said that
oil had been discovered Those in
charge of the property would not dis
cuss the oil proposition. Col. Dunham
thinks that the indications are fine. He

has been expended in an effort to To-
cate petroleum.

that they will make some investments
near here. They were highly impress
ed with conditions. One of them in
