The New Oil Field.

Whenever a new oil field is discover
ed men in that business from all over
the country flock to it.
At present oil men from this state,
West Virginia, Kansas. Texas and other
states are focking to southeastern Hi
nois. where oil has been discovered sin
Clark and Crawford counties, both OF
which border on the blanks of the Wa
bash
For some fifteen years one man has
owned and pumped well on his lot
within the town limits Of Terre Haute.
Ind, located on the Wabash. This well
is about 1900 feet deep. and we would
call it a saltwater well. as it produces
vast qnantities OF that water, besides
abcnt thirty barrels of oil per day
which he disposes Of by tank cars, as
there are no pipe lines in that country.
Other wells have been drilled about this
one, the drillers finding little or no
trace of either oil or saltwater. With
in the past year or SO, however some
drilling near Casey, Clark county, Ill,
about forty miles southwest of Terrc
Haute. developed good quality OF oil
at about 500 feet. and the belt which
runs southeast from there, on about
22-degree line, has been traced through
Crawford county which joins Clark
county on the south, and on through
the southern part of Indiana state into
Kentucky, crossing the Ohio to the east
Of Evansville All the wells yet drilled
have been shut-in, awaiting the pipe
line; and the country in the supposed
belt has been leased hundred miles
ahead-the land owners insisting upon
sixth royalty, and guarantee of $50
per acre per year. The land of Clark
and Crawford counties is very rich and
very valuable for farming, particularly
for corns but further south in what is
called Egypt" or the rainless district
1t il not so valuable. w. z. Murrin,
whoswas there last week. tells us that
he was warned in the towns not to at
-tempkto get meal in the country, as
they would give him nothing but corn
bread and fat meat to eat and also that
few ears Of corn thrown to his horse
invariably cost him fifty cents. The
country people have no use for white"
bread, and it seems to be scarce in the
towns

There never was time in the history
OF Pennsylvania when the people were
more anxious than they are now that a
good, clean, capable and honest man be

people such a candidate. Many good
names are mentioned and among them
that Of Hon. Charles w. Stone OF War
