Don't 1t beat all how political lead
ers get worked up over the sorry
plight OF their friends in the oppo-
sition party? This Ia forcibly i'm
pressed upon us at this time by tine
big noise the Democratic press IL
making over the seeming INABILITY OF
the Republicans to find man big
enough to fill the job of standard
bearer I'm the coming campaign.
Sometimes 1t happens to be the other
way about, but the result seems to
be always about the same. Cam
paigns progress, the right man comes
forward at the right time, the cleo
tions roll around, the people express
their preference and the noise OF
the political croaker is lost in the
cheers OF the victors and the means
of the vanquished. 1t does seem
that after years and years of such
experiences the fellows who pose
as the whole show would learn that
their efforts are hopelessly futile.
The case in hand win be a REPETITION
OF the ones of the past, the only diff
ference that we can see liz that the
Democrats know who their candidate
La to be, while with the Republicans
there Id considerable doubt.

In the Oil Fields
WEST VIRGINIA IS
COMING TO FRONT

Interest in the eastern oil fields
now centers in West Virginia, follow
ing the bringing in of a 2,l00- barrel
gusher several days ago on Dents
Kun. Warrington district, Marion
county This well produced about
10000 barrels i'm the first week, at
the end of which it was down TO
slightly more than l,200 barrels
day, but it still remained an eXcep-
tionally large well for the eastern
fields
This gusher caused the larger oil
companies to push development work
aggressiVcly and several of the older
ones report favorable results, notably
the Carter oil company in Doddridge
county, South Penn Oil company in
Lincoln county and Wayland oil x
Gas Co. in Wetzel county
The importance of getting increased
production OF the high grade oil of
the eastern fields has become all the
more pronounced because of the fall
Ing off in high grade production in
the Gushing and Shamrock pools in
Oklahoma. Refners who have de
pended on midcontinent oil for sup
plies in the last few years now find
that they have to get other sources
and have been forced to turn to east
ern producers. This movement was
the cause of the recent, advance of
80 cents a barrel in Pennsylvania oil
70 $3.50, the highest price of the
year
Kentucky is the other active spot
in the eastern fields and much prog
ress is being made in the Irvine and
Scottsville pools, the largest in the
state. While some fear was expressed
In the early stages of this recent de-
velopment of the kentucky fields, in
dications there now point to perman-
ency.
Development of the eastern oil
fields was made unnecessary, If not
Improbable by the bringing in of the
wonderful Gushing pool in Oklahoma
a few years ago. Gushing reached the
height of 100000 barrels OF high
grade oil in n day early in 1915. Cush-
ing oil, high in gasoline content, was
marketed at an unfaVCrable time and
the official posted price got as low as
40 cents a barrel. Sales were actually
made on a much lower basis. Now.
Cushing production is down to well
under 100000 barrels day and ac-
tive development OF the eastern fields
has become necessary to meet the big
demand from refiners for high grade
oil to keep up with gasoline require
ments.
The South Penn Oil company domi-
mates the eastern fields and to 1t is
due the proper handling of the fields
in the last few years. The company
is the largest producer of high grade
oil in the country II has about l0,-
600 wells with a production of about
1900 barrels day 1t controls about
100000 under lease. - Wall Street
