CLAIM Is BARRELS 4 DAY
FROM FORKS OIL WELL
Commercial Production There VIII
Renew Drilling, Editor
Thinks.

Under the title, "Oil at Last" the
Quilcene Megaphone last week, con-
firming rumors that had been cur
rent here. said:
1.-THE discovery Of parafin base oil
in paying quantities is of tremendous
importance to the state, and particu-
larry to the Olympic peninsula, where
it has been found after an expendi-
ture of $4,000 by the Washington
OIL company at Forks. in Clallam
county.
There Is no longer reason to
doubt that oil has been struck at
that point. An official statement by
Casper Fischer, one of the heaviest
stockholders, says the we'll of the
company was brought in by shoot
ing it with 80 quarts of nitroglycer-
inc. and that the we'll will now pro-
duce rs barrels a day, which amount
can beg realty increased by the use
of superheated steam. a process used
successfully in wells, containing oil
of siruppy consistency. as it is in
the Forks bore. Pumping machinery
has been purchased, and will be no
the ground within few days. Three
more wells will be sunk at Forks this
spring. Mr.. Fischer announces, where
his company controls extensive
acreage.
'The discovery of oil in CONNER
cial quantity at Forks will be fol-
lowed by extensive drilling at many
points on the Sound. The Tenino oil
field will doubtless again see much
activity, while Jefferson county is
due for more attempts to find oil. A
drill was at work in the Leland val
ley three or four years ago, but was
not sent down to any great depth,
owing to lack of money to prosecute
the work.
perhaps the best showing of oil
seepage on the Sound is at the head
of Port Townsend bay. Experts pro-
nounce the seepage and the forma-
ton the most encouraging of any
they had investigated. But at the
time the discovery Of oil there was
made the work in other fields held
the attention of capitalists and
money could not be secured to put .
drill at work. Now that q CONNER
cially producing we'll has been
brought In we may expect drills to
be working here next summer"

That Illinois Is an Extremely
Doubtful State.

Hector, financial editor, which says
WARS End viii Not End Trade
Boom" This is in direct contradic-
ton to the Republican Spcllbindcrs, in
cluding Hughes, Fairbanks, BcvcridSe
and the rest of them. The financial
story has created Il sensation in po-
litical circles. following. rs ii did. an
article by the political editor of the
Tribune announcing that Illinois is II
very doubtful state.
The Hector article says: at is now
the general belief that following the
end of the war there will be for n
period of one or two years continual
ton of the present activity which II
has brought about. In support of this
view 1t is noted that men conspicuous
in the economic affairs of the cOun-
tries at war give public uttcrancc to
the forecast that. the war over. their
countries will seek raw materials to
replace those destroyed. These cX-
pressions are found in discussions of
the demands that will be made ON the
United States for such raw materials.
While there may be n large variety.
the conspicuous articles needed will
be copper, cotton leather and certain
steel products.
This current view of after the war
is the opposite of that held out one
year ago and is lending stability to
business sentiment. But after two
years and two months manufacturing
conditions, wages and earnings have
been adjusted and. nt the same time
predicted earnings have become nc,

Two Elements That Mark the

Of the Last Three Years
Evening Gowns Have
Dignity.

New IOrk.-Any observant person
glancing over the masses of women
gathered in the large centers would
not say that there was any lack of
new autumn dressing. Hundreds of
new gowns were worn, and winter hats
made their appearance in mid-Septem-
ber but the burden of the dressmak-
ers' plaint was that these models were,
as n rule, bought from the shops at
reasonable prices and that the eXpen-
Sive gowns which cost them such an
amazing sum of money were neglected.
The early autumn was perplexing
in regard to fashions. No expert who
saw behind the scenes can deny it, If
America had not been peculiarly pros
porous, if the stock market had not
been turning men into millionaires
with rapdity that took the breath
away, the situation would have been
tragic to the importers.
You see, the prices in Paris have
never reached such Il height in the
history of women's clothes. That's n
big statement, but on reading the
