THE BLUE AND THE GRAY MAKE PEACE

back for a last glimpse of it,
there on the front the last
thing we saw was the words,
Let lis have peace. You see
even our great leader never said
anything wiser.9
well, our peace society has
decided to have a reunion now
and then, though we won't prob
ably have to hold many. But
next September, Gcd wlllin', Pm
goin' to tend out the first one.
It's going to be held at Arlihg-
ton, the home of General Lee.
My story is over comrades, but I
jes' want to ask you if you won't
change the program a little bit
today. After we sing My Coun-
try IT'S of Thee, as we always
do, then instead of Marching
Through Georgia, would you
mind singing a verse of Dixie in
honor of the other member of
the peace society,""
No second plea was needed,
and as the stirring words poured
from the threats of those who
were familiar with them they
were whistled with shrill fervor
by those who were not, the peace
society of two received the I'M
qualified endorsement of Granite

merry. making and as the presid-
ing genius of the occasion, Maria
felt a not unnatural anxiety that
the order of exercises proceed
without a hitch.
He's never missed a Fourth

war;" she went on, still in an ag-
grieved tone, "but there's no

Prohibition ticket for years amt
no call to visit no taverns, even
if the Father of His Country

The monologue was cut short
by the appearance of the offend

expression relaxed somewhat in
sipte of herself at sight of the
spare figure erect despite its bur-
den of wears and clad in the blue
army coat that was an honor

MONTE CR|STO LAND
ADVANCES IN PRICE
Since Doheny Purchase Offer of
$5OO,OOO Above Cost Has
Been Made

Since completing the deal for the
Monte Cristo land, the American OIL
fields has had the opportunity to sell
for $500, 900 advance over the purchase
price Negotiations for this tract were
taken before the big gusher came in
and the consummation of the deal was
delayed because of the objections
raised by some of those interested to
buying so much high priced land.
The result was the coming in of
Standard wells close by and the figures
were advanced. The Lakeview gusher
has raised the value since then still
more and 1t could not be bought for
a good deal more than the American
Oilfelds paid.
The same objections to high prices
has, in the case of good many otheI
concerns, stopped a few other good
buys. The great strikes on the nat
coming so thick and fast have called
attention to this condition. 1t is not sc
long since a number of men whose
opinion was considered valuable were
SUSPICIOUS of the Monte Cristo lane
and of all to its east and northeast
If the truth were ever ascertained 1t Is
likelv that il would be found thai
quite a few good chances have been al
lowed by big men TO slip by.
The Monte Cristo land was once
owned by the Superior Oil company
now out of existence, which sold 1t FOR
"a song" There are quite few stock
holders who feel sick every time they
hear the last deal or the LakeVieW
gusher mentioned.

BAKERSFIELD PLANS
OIL STOCK EXCHANGE
Scheme Grows in Popularity and
Organization May Be Perfect
ed Without Delay

BAKERSFIELD, April 3.-Unless the
most encouraging of signs fail Bakers
field will have an oil exchange within
a very short time. The suggestion was
made by Ben A. Hayden and was in
dorsed by j. G. Robertson of the firm
of Donnellan, Robertson & Co, p.
O'Brien, Kenneth Donnellan and a few
others. Every man spoken to virtually
sgnified his approval, and telephone
and telegraphic communication with
outside cities showed a remarkable
unanimity of sentiment approving the
plan. San Francisco gave Endorsement,
Los Angeles sent word that thirty
members would sign up Immediately.
Three wires came in from Goldfield
asking for reservations and a number
OF representatives of New York curb
operators signified their intention of
taking seats. One Philadelphia broker
age house asked that its name be added
to the charter membership
The design at first was to limit the
membership to 100, but before night
fall the number, including those who
virtually became members and those
who can be confidently depended upon
to give support, had grown to 40, and
it was seen that the original suggestion
was not wide enough in it's scope.
Charter membership fees have been
nXed at SoU, out tne zee TOT HSteu SCochS
will be merely nominal, admitting
every legitimate company or firm en-
gagged in the business, without en-
trance penalty. The listing committee
will consist of men thoroughly known
in the oil business, with unassailable
regulations for integrity and honesty
of purpose, and nothing but companies
run on the square and dealing justly
with the public will be traded in.
Either L. p. st. Clair or Tim Spellacy
will be chosen president.

AMERICAN OILFIELDS
DEVELOPS FREAK WELL
Fluid from 970 Feet Fills Fifty
Barrel Tank in Forty
Minutes

TAFT, April 3.-The American Oil
fields company has freak well near
the center of its east line of the south
west quarter of section 36-31-22, as
compared to other wells in that local
ity. At $40 feet Il light oil sand was
entered with sufficient gas pressure To
make the we'll flow. The oil, which is
of % gravity, fills a 5O-barrel tank in
forty minutes whenever the valve is
opened. II is being used to supply fuel
for drilling operations. The well,
known as No. 73, is rated at 1900 bar
rels by the drillers. but +. j. O'Donnell,
superintendent on 36, considers that
rather high. 1t reached the sand with
single string of 12-inch casing.
Well No. 81. a short distance north
of 70, reached the oil sand at 1900 feet
Well No. 60 in the southwest corner
of the northeast quarter is two screws
into the sand at 1860 feet. In No 61
in the southeast corner of the north
west quarter. water is being cemented
off at 1860 feet.
On section 16-32-23 the company has
a strong 200 barrel well producing Is
gravity oil and is down 700 feet with
16-inch stovepipe in No. Z. Six strings
are running on 36, two ON 16, two on
12-31-22. and one on 1S-31-23.
superintendent Harding, formerly
with the Monte Cristo and who goes

PROPOSED ARIZONA PIPE LINE
ANNOYS STANDARD -ASSOC|AT Ed

q AN FRANCISCO. April 3.-The
combinations of the great oil in
~ terests outside of tho Standard
and AssociatedSou Pacific to
construct pipe line system from the
San Joaquin valley oil fields to dis
tributing points in Arizona and Mexi-
co has created q profound impression
here on capitalists and men who en-
gage i'm big undertakings. They mar
vel at the size and audacity of the
scheme. 1t Is a stratagem they had
not dreamed of. OF course, as usual,
the Standard crowd smiles blandly
and the Associated force looks self
satisfyingly wise. They feel not ad-
versely disturbed at the announcement
of the big piece of oil news.
This proposed pipe line enterprise,
to cross the mountains and enter the
deserts of Arizona and Mexico, and
there deliver California oil at the
minimum cost of transportation, and
the position of the great, "all-power-
full" Standard in the oil industry of
California with reference to the in
dependents, "the subjects of spoil" are
coming In for considerable enlightened
discussion.
And the interesting part of these
discussions is the conclusion that the
Standard Is no longer a thing to be
afraid of in the oil business-that its
management has become senile and
careless of it's crown of supremacy or
else incompetent to buffalo" the oil
men of the west as 1t has done and

is doing the oil men and everybody
else in the east. This great and Won
deffully historied corporation, with
belts and belts of sealps at its waist.
is knocking along in California in
sort of an even tenor way, asking TO
be let alone and occasionally hinting
dire prophecies and generally bow
vowed condition of the oil business
on this coast, and warning it's personal
friends to keep their money out of the
business.
In view of the Standards failure to
show any disposition or to make its
old time good" the question Is being
seriously asked, WAS not the Stan
dards power and strength made easy
and luxurlant by generally lying
down, the giving UP of everybody at
the mere proclamation of its coming?
It's failure to stampede and drive out
the westerners is furnishing many
prominent proselytes to the belief that
the great saucer-eyed swallower has
been the king buffalo of the age, for
the first time it ran up against men
who would stand was in California,
and here 1t ceased to be a factor of
danger or molestation.
There are just now many hats going
UP to the Independents. That i'm
mortal little band that made the
famous stop in 1904, when the Inde-
pendent oil Producers agency OF Kern
county was organized, is coming iii
for much praise of courage and clear
headed foresight.

STANDARD-ASS0ClATED
HOLDS UP BAY PRICES

SAN FRANCISCO. April 9.-Not-
withstanding the present undeniaole
overproduction. both the Associated
and the Standard are holding up prices,
quoting those rates to buyers which
have prevailed at bay points foi several
weeks past.
There has been no slaughtering nor
hint of such action. Instead of taking
advantage of the producer at a time
which, If not critical, could easily be
made so, these two giant marketers
are maintaining an admirable poise
and by non-activity are assisting great
ly in protecting the values contained
In this connection it is said that
neither the Associated nor the Standard
has given any indication, so far, since
the Midway field demonstrated itself
to be so great, that a move to cut
nrices at the we'll was being considered,

LARGE PRODUCTION MAY
HAVE TO Be CURTA|LED
Too Many Gushers and Inade-
1uate Transportation Work
Hardship on Business

BAKERSFIELD, April 3.-How to
take care of the production Of the Mid
way field is a question that is worry
ing everybody concerned. The Pro-
ducers transportation company has
been given an illustration of what may
be expected of transportation COM
paniss by the action of the Lakeview
well, which in fifteen days produced
twice as much oil as the big tanks
could hold. The Standard is flooded
with oil and has the production of
the Mays and California Midway, both
big producers, to care for. 1t is re-
ported here that the company Will at
once begin the construction of a sec
ond eight-inch line out of the field.
The Associated is rushing It's pipe
line in from McKittrick. but will not
be able to take care of the oil for
scme time to come. 1t begins to look
like a case of closed In wells and cur
tailed production for someone.
TAFT, April 3.-An embarrassment
of riches threatens the Standard in the
Maricopa and Midway fields The com
pany has a pipe line capacity of 900
barrels an hour. 21,6O0 a day, and a
storage of 100000 barrels. OF late the
company has been getting an average
of $500 barrels dailw from one well,
its own No. 2 on section 80, besides its
other production in the field.
In addition 1t has contracted to take
care of the production of the Hawaiian
Mays and California Midway, all in the
gusher class; the Honolulu, United.
Eagle Creek, Ethel D., M. & NJ. and
some smaller producers.
Either the Hawaiian, California Mid
way or Mays, all of which are ready
to open, can be depended upon for an
immense production judged by past
performances, and the Mays and Cali
fornla Midway together would quickly
exhaust the storage capacity of the

M FIRST CLASS GROUND

TAFT, April 3.-Ten acres on the
cost have been added to the Midway
rive rive lease, section 5-S2-23, making a
total of thirty acres. M. II. Henning-
sen. president of the company, has as
semhled all of the material for the first
we'll and the work of building the der
rick and setting the boiler will begin
at once. This is about 2300-foot terri
tory and Mr.. Henningsen hopes to fin
ish the we'll in eight-inch.
Midway Five adjoins the st. Law
renee on the west and is looked upon
as drst-class territory.
