sive interest which President Taft
has shown in them, but some of
these, as the tariff beard, are mere
shadows Of the real thing.
One of the most important things
that congress did, and in which
President Taft can claim no share
of credit, is the Gripping of the
autocrativ power and misrule Of
Speaker Cannon. This fight lacked
only the actual deposing of Speaker
Cannon to make it fun and moral
pointing victory.
While the progressive in the sen
ate can not point to quite so targi-
BILE a victory over the senate ma
chine they have had their victories
the greatest of these being the

acre of his finest cotton, but jubi
liant over the prospects of oil and
gas
It was found, as Mr.. Scott had
said, that a real "gasser' had been
brought in right in the middle of
his cotton patch, though not in the
usual manner of bringing them in.
At the time of the discovery the
well was not in action; neither
has it been, apparently. since, and
for a time "A number of persons were
inclined to hold TO the theory that
falling meteor had caused the up
heaval and also the dead cotton.
However, this week Mr. Scott Sc.
cured the services of w. II. James,
oil expert fer the Texas company
of Moran. and after a thorough in
YestigatiOn he announced that the
eruption was caused by natural gas.
Mr.. James theory was that an inn
mense reservoir of gas lies at no
great depth below the surface of
the earth and has gradually eaten
its way through to the surface,
probably assisted by the cracks
caused by the dry weather, and
finally breaking through in this pc
culiar manner. The crater of the
miniature volcano is something near
the size of a barrel, and is lined
with a lime-lke substance.
During the past week Mr.. Scott
has had a number of gas and oil
experts on the ground and the opin-
ion of these men go to strengthen
his belief that Gil and gas are here
in paying quantities, and he states
positively that he will have drill
ing outfit on the ground as soon
as possible.
During the week a number of Abb
lene capitalists have become inter
ested in this peculiar eruption and
it is highly probable that some may
see fit to invest some money in the
, project of boring for oil in the vi
cinity.

WHEAT YIELD is HEAVY.
Reports from Garfield County Indicate
20 Bushels to the Acre.


Enid, Okla. June 2G.-Thoueh no
wheat has been reported in Enid
sales were made i'll both Waukomis
and Douglas. According to The grain
dealers wheat this year is of extra
hne quality the average being o.
pounds to the bushel. The yield is
also point in favor of the 1910 crop,
% to - bushels being produced to the
acre. Though no rise from the - cent
point has been reached up to the pres
ent time it is expected thar the grain
will reach the dollar mark again this
year.
The oat crop is probably the best
crop in the history of the state. The
cold weather followed by the warm
spell was just what was needed The
head is unusually fine and it is con
siderably above the standard. The oat
crop in Garfield county this year IS
- per cent better than it was last
year
1t is too early to make any predic-
tion for corn. but it is believed that
the crop will not be as good as it has
been in former years.
