THE OIL INDUSTRY
OF FREMONT COUNTY

This from the Florence Citizen indi-
Gates that the oil industry of he
county is prosperous and in good
shape:
Through the kindness OF DR.. Knoch
Of the United OIL company and Sena-
tor Johnston. field superintendent. we
have been able TO procure an accurate
estimate Of the actual production Of
the Florence oil field and its value foS
, the year 1919.
$4,000 barrels OF oil at 81 per bar
rel. sss5.ooo. Payroll of 100 men 'or
year. $4,000.
The amount OF oil pumped in the
|, held during the past year averages
1000 barrels per day and is worth 81
per barrel. making the total value Of
the annual production about 1856. .0ec.
About 100 men are employed in the
industry at Florence and the fields ad-
jacent. \ greater part of this produo,
Is sold through the United oil COM
pany and tfe Florence OIL and Rein
ing company. The United OIL company
shipped last year about eco car loads
OF oil, there being about $50 cars Of
kerosene. sc OF paraffne wax. loo cars
OF smudge oil and $50 cars of lubrl-
eating oil. The remainder of the
thousand car loads were gasoline. gas
oil. fuel oil. power distillate and vari-
Gus other products
Fiel~ Superintendent Johnston is
OF timistic concerning the record for
the year. There is approximately 2o.-
600 acres in the oil territory. which IS
under lease TO the United oil con-
pany. Only about 5000 acres have
been drilled and are being pumped 1t
the present time. The wells produce
from 10 barrels to $50 barrels per day
each. The average number OF pro-
ducing wells in proportion to those
drilled was greater in the year 1912
than It has been in Is years-one well
out OF three drilled being pumping
propositions this year.
Thus the conditions shown by de-
pendable figures are generally good in
the oil fields. 1t Is reported that the
present year will witness greater de-
velopment than the Florence field has
known In years.

SUFFRAG|ST TO|LER
TELLS CHANCELLOR
OF HT|FUL WAGES
Woman Says She Supported
Self and Husband on rs
Cents a Week.

LONDON. Jan. 23-A clinching argu-
ment for votes for women was delivered
by Mrs. Mary Wood, prematurely
aged, toil-bent woman from one of the
East Ends unspeakable sweatshops.
who told David Lloyd-George. chancel-
lor of the excheauer, that she worked
in the place more than sixty hours
weekly and received for her labor 15
cents for the six days.
On that, she said, she attempted to
support herself and a, husband, helpless
mot from drink-but from tuberculosis,
to which he fell victim while shaving
by kerosene lamplight in the same
sweatshop.
Her needle-scarred and misshapen
hands, trembling with the terrible earn
estness that evidenced the truth of her
pitifuI recital, Mrs. Wood told the cabi-
net officer how hundreds of thousands
of helpless women and girls were forced
to work in the East End shops as sne
did. for less than a living pittance.
Lloyd George and members OF the
house of commons who were in the
treasury office were plainly impressed
with the woman's story, and some OF
the suffragettes who heard the recital
were overcome with emotion.
Mrs. Wood was followed by other
women, shop girls. domestics. weavers,
and factory women, who told similar
stories Of life toll without life wages;
They were among the delegation of
suffragettes received by Lloyd-George at
the order of Premier Asquith. to hear
evidence I'm behalf of the women's SUI
frage amendment to the franchise re-
form bill that will come up for debate
and division in the commons tomorrow.
II is the crisis of the votes for wo-
