A company is being or ganized by local people to de- velop the Hanlan groundand the lucky ones interested feel confident of making big money out of their investment. One company organized a short time ago in Phoenix struck oil at less than four hundred feet. The stock has jumped from S1O0 to $500 per share, all of which is going some.
