element to the people of that COM
and now promises to become
a permanent producing well. The
uprushing gas and oil, when tapped
by the drillers, tore the derrick from
its moorings and, igniting, enveloped
the whole rig In a sheet OF flame.

been able to survive the conflagra-

Although $1,000 worth of machin-

itGe ltockhoiders In the property are
lJubilant. There IS every Indication
that an lnexhaustive nool OF oil has
been tapped and that the well will be

not be permitted in the well again
and as soon as the burning gas can
be extinguished the owners will be
able to lay intelligent plans for the
immediate reclamation of the en-
terprise. II Is believed that only n
nominal expense will be needed to
put the well in shape for regular
producing.
The news created almost as much
excitement here as at De Beque. The

The drill was at depth of 2.010
feet when the gusher broke. 1t is
800 feet deener than when the strike

N DONALD IS
IN THE RACE
Formally Announces Himself as
Candidate for Legislature at
the Primaries

William H. Mcdonald, for many
years a prominent citizen of Mesa
county and formerly department
of Colorado and Wyo-
ming, Grand Army of the Republic,
today formally announced himself as
a candidate for the Legislature.
While Mr. McDonald's candidacy is
to be subject to the action of the
Democratic primaries, it is generally
believed that he viii be unopposed.
Mr.. Mcdonald is a level-headed
sort of a citizen who can be of great
value TO a constituency in the general
assembly by reason of his long eXpe-
rience in politics and business. He Is
able to express himself clearly and
will doubtless make a mark for him
self and reflect honor upon the coun-
ty, if he is elected to office.
AT this time there has been no
mention of possible opponents for
Mr.. Mcdonald in the other parties.

their arms are wide open for sincere
converts to the tenets of T. r. II so
be that wild desire for office is
the impelling conversive force that
won't be held against them.
Take, for instance. John Brown.
John will tell you that he's a Repub-
lican and not n Bull Mooser-say 1t
strong, Just like that. But all the
same if his friends agree to support
the Moose ticket in exchange for an
endorsement by the Progs for John,
why all the bitterness of Brown
fades away.
Uncle Avery Newton is suffering
from the same delusion. He is go
ing to be candidate for senator. and
while not a pronounced Progressive,
Newton will work for any sort of an
arrangement which will rob him OF
opposition, except from the Demo-

GRANOJURY TO
PROBE SECRET
Clue; WOMAN
FIRED BULLET
District Attorney Sure Feminine
Hand Slew Mrs. Bailey but
Won't Name Suspect
DOCTOR TARGET OF SHOTS

TREEPORT, N. Y, July l.
r BY Associated Press. THE alb
L rupt ending of the inquest into
the death of Mrs. Bailey and the an
nouncement that grand jury would
begin investigation of the case on
Thursday led to the report today that
the testimony of the most important
witnesses would be withheld while
clews which developed at the hearing
are being investigated.
The district attorney made no eff
fort today to conceal his theory of
the case. He insists that the murder
was accomplished by a woman, but
so far has kept the object of his
suspicion a secret.
Despite the assertions OF DR.. Car
man that several shots were fired at
him last night by man while he was
returning to his home from Roose-
welt after making a call on a patient,
the police still adhere to the conten-
tion that the shot which killed Mrs.
Bailey was fired by woman.
Sheriff Petit today admitted that
the investigation had been narrowed
down TO three points, each of which
leads to the same person or persons,
and from information now in his
hands he believes that an arrest will
be made soon.
1t became known today that detect
ives in the employ of the district at
torney were engaged in running
down all clews along the three lines
indicated by the sheriff.
Aside from developing case based
on its own theories the detective
agency retained by the district at
torney prepared to investigate the
stories told by DR.. Carman and w.
p. Haff that they were shot at by
an unidentified man.
Haff, who resem bles Carman, told
the police he had been shot at by
an unknown man and believed that
the shot was intended for the doctor
because of the resemblance. Carman
said yesterday that the man who fired
at him was riding bicycle and held
the handle bar with his right hand,
firing with his left. This follows
his theory that left-handed man
fired the shot which killed Mrs.
Bailey.
