WHAT Is THE USE?

If the stand that Mayor Valentine of Jun eau took the other day is tenabe; what is the use of electine six members to form council for municipalities ia Naslza Valentine took the notion to fire the chef of police without consult ing the members of the council. The members of the council have declared their intention of fighting the mayor. They want to be consult ing in all matters Which is right. However if the Juneau people want to get rid of Valentine all they have to do is to give him a little more rope. He is sure to hang himself. 4 one-man government in Alaska will not live long

Men who have made a careful study
of Kansas geology are certain HAYS is
in the center of what is known as the
second great oil field OF Kansas. There
is an oil craze in Ellsworth, Rice and
Saline counties Fifteen wells are
now being drilled and more than 500.
600 acres IN these counties have been
leased by different oil companies. At
Langley, they are down over 1900 feet
and rock they take from this well is so
saturated with oil that 1t burns readily.
If you have read any Of the notes OF
Prof. Sidney Hatch, the famous oil
geologist, you are aware that Hays is
strictly IN it. 1t would be q fine thing
for Hays if some Of our progressive
moneyed men would form a company
and would make a practical test. 1t
seems from reports that there are oil
seepings in various parts of this coun-
ty. 1t is more than possible we would
have to drill a little deeper here before
we would enter what is known as
Cherokee shale that lies above oil sand,
but we are more likely. by going deep,
70 get gushers. Now is the time to or
ganize company and commence bust
ness Hays waits for the man who can
organize and start business In our oil
fields.
