now are that Clark county is facing
a spirited county seat fight next year
Citizens of Elrod, it has been learned
are circulating petition asking the
county commissioners to order vote
taken on a proposition to remove the
county seat from Clark to Elrod at
the next general election in Novem-
ber. 1918. Charles Mackey, of Ell
rod. one of the leaders in the move
ment, is quoted as saying that about
25 petitions are in circulation in the
county and that Elrod boosters have
been planning the move for about
two years. The county is in need of
a new courthouse, and the Elrod men
according to Mr.. Mackey, believe this
to be an auspicious time to agitate
the removal.
Clark is near the center of the
county, on the Chicago & Northwest
ern railway. Elrod is a few miles
from the eastern boundary of the
county, but Is on both the Milwaukee
and Northwestern roads.

U. S. SOLDIERS
SPEND LEISURE TIME TAKING IN
THE SIGHTS OF LONDON.

London. Oct. 17.-(By Mail y
Several detachments of American sol
diers in training for aviation work
are now located at aerodromes with
in the confines of Greater London,
and are seen during their leisure
hours sightseeing about the city or
doing their shopping along Regent
street, Bond street or in the shops
around oxford circus.
To the British eye, the notable
difference between the Americans in
training and the British squads
alongside them, is somewhat more
democratic flavor in the American
ranks. In one American camp the
spirit of self government is carried
so far that no commissioned officer
is on duty there at present, the de-
tachment being under the command
of a senior non-commissioned officer
He is commonly called sergeant

correct title, which suggests the navy
rather than the army, is master sig
Mailing electrician.
When the United States came into
the war, this officer was in charge OF
group of msn on CONSTITUTIONAL
work in the United States. The men
under him have been recruited chief
ly from automobile factories, with a
sprinkling of young collegians. The
squad Is at present devoting its time
to learning the construction of an
airplane. The men are at times a
little impatient about the deliberate
methods of the English instructors
and would rather have a little less
theory and a little more practice

HUNTING OIL
DRILLERS NEAR SOUTH SHORE
FIND PROMISING INDI-
CATIONS.

South Shore, Nov. 1.-Oil drillers
who are sinking test wells in this vi
cinity are reported to have struck
promising indications of oil at a
depth Of about 1900 feet, and as a
result there is great excitement in
this territory. The drillers have
been at work on this project for
about year and will continue until
the we'll reaches a depth of about
1000 feet. The company, which is
made up of Pennsylvania men famil-
lar with oil development projects. al
ready has expended about $4,000 in
the work Of development in this ter
ritory. They are confident they will
find oil in paying quantities, as indi-
cations now are said to be plain of
the presence Of oil and that they are
approaching the stratum in which oil
is usually found in large quantities.
