MAN DRILLING.

A period of oil exploration and de-
velopment is opening in New Mexico.
In addition to extensive work on state
lands by the New Mexico Petroleum
& Gas Development company, whcih
was made certain at o conference he,
tween representatives of the company
ana State Land Commissioner Robert
p. DRIVEN at Oklahoma City last week,
there is promise Of much activity this
year in San Juan county and In the
Dayton district of Eddy county.
Drilling was commenced last week IN
the Meadows section OF San Juan
county, near Frutiland, by H. &,
Gooch, an Oklahoma oil man, and
this morning a new company that
will operate in that county was in.
%corporated here. Land owners in the
Dayton district of Eddy county are
pooling leases to the extent OF $4,000
acres, and arrangements for oil ex-
~ploration on this land are TO be made
by Samuel G. Humphreys. president
of the Paso del Norte Hotel company
Of FL Paso.
The oil concern Incorporated here
today is the Shiprock Oil & Gas De
yelopment company of Pennington.
The authorized capital is $25O,0O0,
with $4,000 subscribed, and the incor-
porators are ]. Price Wright, Paul H.
Bra-Me and M. M. Wright, all of Farm
ington. The Wrights have all but 10
shares Of the 5000 shares of stock
issued.
Fl. B. Gooch, the OKLAHOMA man
who started drilling in San Juan
county last week, represents a syn
dictate of Oklahoma oil men, and
leases on several school sections Of
state land have been obtained. The
San Juan Basin Oil company, OF
which Judge ID. G. Abbott Of this city,
is president, also has leased some
state school section land in that coun-
ty. Owners Of land around Aztec
have asked Gooch to put a well down
in that section, and are now signing
leases.
The Dayton District.
The agreement that is being signed
by land owners Of the Dayton district
Of Eddy county, who are pooling
leases, states that the owners Of land
have become convinced that the big
oil interests do not desire the devel-
opment of that field at this time, and
that it can be brought about only by
cooperative action. Mr.. Humphreys
expects to be able to interest men
who are financially able to test the
field and develop it thoroughly in the
event oil in commercial quantities is
found.
The lease for the state lands that
will be explored for oil by the New
Mexico Petroleum & Gas Development
company will be signed as soon as
Robert l.. Lunsford, vice president of
the company, arrives here from Okla
homa. The lands will aggregate near
ly 100000 acres, in Chayes, Torrance,
Santa Fe and Lincoln counties, and
under the provisions of the lease 20
wells will be drilled within two years.

Political discussions are becom-
ing quite popular in our little vii
lage of late AS the national ell
ection draws hear men are be-
coming more interested and are
reading the political news and
canvassing the situation in a way
that we believe will make for a
great change in the political at
mosphere. Not a few Wilson
followers have expressed very
pronounced G. o. P. views.
We were treated to prohiki-
tion speech and songs by party
of gentlemen, led by MIR. Gillian,
state organizer. one afternoon
last week.
Some of our farmer Sneighbors
were laying in their supply of
coal for the winter last week.

WILLIS AS A PUBLIC MAN.

Originating with a couple Of Cox'B
organs in Columbus 1.-THE Dispatch and
the Ohio State Journal-both owned
by the Wolfe brothers, one a croAie Of
Cox and the other drawing $4,000 q
year salary from the United States
government by the grace of President
WILSON, there is an effort being made
by the Democrats to make it appear
that Gov. Willis is a man Of small
caliber.
Men Of affairs, both in Ohio and out
side, know this to be a jaundiced, ma
licious piece Of spitework. But few
public men have SO impressed them
selves upon the country in such a
short time as has Gov. Willis The
universal testimony Of obServers-in-
GLIDING neutral and Democratic news
paper correspondents-at the national
convention at Chicago, was that he, by
pure force of character, ability and en-
ergy was one of the great leaders Of
his party.
Two or three Of Cox's lieutenants at
Columbus went to Chicago On purpose
to belittle Willis, but they themselves
we're made to look the insignihcant
creatures.
At the recent state Republican con-
vention Of Michigan, Gov. Wins spoke
and the Associated Press ian impair
aial authority recorded that he de-
livered what was declared by many
to be one of the greatest speeches
made to a Michigan Republican con-
VentiUn in years"

Myron 7. HerriCk Declares

Replying to the question Of what
seemed to be most engrossing the at
tentiOn Of the voters OF Ohio this cam
paign. Myron T. Herrick, the Repub-
licaD nominee for United States sena-
tor, recently said:
ut seems to me that the tariff is
the overwhelming issue this campaign.
1t is certainly to the forefront in
Ohio. Right here in Ohio we
had our own experience with the dis
asters of the Underwood tariff. My
own city of Cleveland was constrained
to raise the sum of $16O,000 to provide
work for the unemployed and thus
prevent soup kitchens and ether. re-
lief for the thousands Of Industrious,
thrifty working men who were walk
ing the streets-thrown out of en-
ployment throngh no fault of theirs,
by the Democratic tariff.
''In February, 1914, in Cincinnati
there were 22,851 experienced machin-
lists out Of employment; there we're
1920 mechanics and helpers out of
employment. Soup kitchens were es>
tablished.
t"Of the Sc manufacturing industries,
80 were entirely closed down, 10 were
working only as per cent of full time,
SS were working only Ga per cent of
full time, were working 80 per cent
of full time and not single one Of the
entire Sc was working full time.
And the experience Of Cincinnati
and Cleveland was the experience of
Pittsburgh, of Philadelphia, New
York, Chicago and Of every other
large manufacturing center in the
country.
"The ending of the uar will turn out
thousands and thousands of men now
engaged in the making or handling OF
ammunition and war supplies Of spe,
cial kinds that we are sending to Eu-
rope in great quantities.
I'VE shall then have on our hands a
labor readjustment problem only less
in magnitude than that which will con-
front Europe when its millions of sol
diers lay down their weapons and
turn to the avocations of peace"

WILSON'S DIscoVERER FOR

It is universally admitted that the
discoverer of Wilson as presidential
timber was Col Harvey, editor Of the
leading critical journal Of the country,
the North American Review. The
reigning political sensation Of the day
is a robust article BY Col. Harvey In
the October number Of the North
American Review, reDudiating Wilson
and urging the election of Hughes.
Col. Harvey takes = strong stand for
protection. After pointing out that
there is en- unprecedented Industrial
war coming on among the nations
(after the present awful strife in Eu-
rOpe), he says:
"The pressing question is, Which

SALARIES UNDER HERRIck AND
COX.

When Mr.. Herrick went out of Office
as governor Of Ohio only one man ap-
pointed by him received as high a
salary as $4,000 year. That was the
commissioner Of insurance. The first
Democratic governor after Herrick
raised that salary to 5000. Gov. Cox
appointed twenty-three men to Office,
each with q salary Of either 5000 or
$1,000, and there were a number Of
others with salaries Of $4,000. Many
of these had their salaries raised
from what they originally received. 1t
will be remembered that in nearly
every instance Of laws creating the
many new Offices there was a pro-
vision that the governor was either to
fix the salary directly or that 1t was to
be by his consent and approval"
