OIL DISCOVERY
IS VERIFIED

bits have not yet passed through the
sand strata, underneath which oil is
facts incline Paulhamus to the view
that he is only at the beginning, and
that the bits will shortly uncover a
rich and extensive pool of oil.
The chief fact now is that oil has
been discovered in the Olympic PENN
sula and the field as an oil-bearing
district proved. The richness remains
to be determined.
When the strike was made. Saturday
the gas pressure was sufficient to
coke the pipe with mud. Some of this
is hardpan. Yet the gas, always pres
ent in an oil country, was sufficient
to force great globules of mud and oil
out of the top of the pipe, and this
flow has continued ever since.
1t is the belief of oil men that
Paulhamus has struck comparative.
ly shallow well at the top of very
rich pool, and that the pool will be
uncovered when the drills have passed
the layer of sand in which the bits
are now working. How extensive this
sand strata is no one knows. Paul
hamus drilled thirty-four feet in it
before the strike was made. He is
not willing to talk. While he is be-
lieved to be confident in his own mind
that he has made rich find, he ak
presses himself as merely hoping to
uncover large oil deposit. At the
same time there is no knowing when
the bits may drill into gusher
The entire harbor is greatly excit-
ed over the discovery. 1t is the prin-
cipal topic of conversation here. and
every bit of news from Taholah which
is forty miles from Aberdeen, is
awaited with great eagerness.
Company Close Corporation
The Indian Oil company. which
made the strike is close corporation
The average man couldn't get in with
dynamite. 1t is composed entirely of
wealthy Tacoma men. Interested in
it are Cester Thorne. banker; S. A.
Perkins. newspaper publisher; Henry
Hewitt. millionaire lumberman: Allen
G.. Mason tide land owner: John Bak.
er. banker, and Calvin Phillips. realty
dealer. There are not many more,
this list comprising about all the stock
holders
They are working one of the three
Indian leases secured before the gov
eminent decided to shut oil prospec-
tors out of the reserve.
Manager Paulhamus is a brother OF
State Senator w. H. Paulhamus, and
is man of eighteen years expert
ence in Texas oil fields. He invented
the rotary drill he is now using at
Taholah and it has been big sue
cess. He himself runs it, and he
works all hours of the day and night
He is hard-headed and practical and
not given to dreams. All these facts
have added to the public confidence in
the strike and have increased the
feeling that the discovery will prove
larger than now reported.
