Word was received today by local
bankers to the effect that State Bank
Examiner Knudson had taken charge
of the German State bank at Glen Ul-
lin, Morton county. The information
caused considerable surprise in local
banking circles as the German State
was the oldest institution Of the kind
at Glen Ullin and was supposedly in
first-class shape.
They are at the present time erect
ing one OF the handsomest bank build
ings in the state. 1t is a fine two
story brick and stone structure de-
signed by Fargo architect.
Just what lead the bank examiner
to take charge of the institution could
not be learned but it is believed, in
local banking circles, that the bank
was spreading out more than its. re-
sources would warrant
1t is believed here that the trouble
is only temporary and that the bank
will be reorganized and allowed to re-
sumo business in very short time.

PRESCOTT, May 4.-The YaSapai oil & Mining company, with headquar- ters at Prescott, has at last demon strated that oil exists in paying quanti- ties in Arizona. They have drilled their well near Del Rec ts finish at depth of 1880 feet. The oil sand was struck at 1888 feet and is thoroughly saturated with oil to the bottom, making about ninety feet of oil sand, and the oil brought up by the bailer has been ex- aElined by experts and pronounced to be D high-grade parrafne oil. The of feers of the company are highly elated over their fine success and are making to begin second well at once. The tubing for this second bor- ing is now on the ground
 This well is situated directly on the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railway at Valley Siding, twenty eight miles nort'r of Prescott and ten miles north of Jerome Junction. Professor o. II. Jones, who located this well fer the corpany six years age, said: '"The oil feds of Yavapai county will be of gheater value than the United Verde nine ip the next few .years.'

 ." In my nine years experience in the oil fields of Pennsylvania, Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and California, new. CT saw geological conditions as favor able for large flows of oil as here. know there is oil in the Upper Verde country. Chino valley will also prove rich, as will Lonesome valley, where the, conditions are as favorable as any oil field in the country. I located virgin fields in Colorado and Kansas, and have been connected with the industry in California six years.

UNITED AND READY TO DO

The people of Mena are, as never before, thinking, talking and work ing for the good of their city. The people are unanimous on the propo- sition that there is work to do and that on them the burden properly falls. And they are almost unani- nous in their willingness to bear their part, and this feeling is so strong that the few who would shirk their part will soon be made to feel that they are not a necessary part of Mena.
 With this splendid spirit impelling Mena to action and consequent ad- vancement, all that remains is a leader to come forward and draw the waiting energy into one well defined channel. When this is done, things will begin to go forward.
 While there are many things being suggested as needing pushing, such as factories. a big hotel, a col lege, some of the state institutions, etc, the preponderance of opinion is certainly in favor of a new rail road. It not only is now the most urgent need, but it will be the one of the strongest levers with which each and all of the other things can be gained.
 At present individual effort has proven beyond doubt McAlester, Talihina and other points west want line to Mena, and that they will HELP US get one builded.
 With these things established it seems time for action.
 Let's get going.

 MT. Lightcap urges the people of Mena to get together, organize and build for themselves a new railroad.
 Will they do it?
