Must Drill at Random.

Much of Southern Georgia is fiat
ard without significant exposures Of
rocks, so that it is difficult or impos-
sible to discover favorable places for
drilling. In such areas the discovery
c. oil that may be present at any
place must depend on the random wild
cat well. The only valuable result OF
drilling most wildcat wells is knowl-
edge of the underground formations,
and many wells obtain but little valua-
BILE information The driller of wild
cat well performs a patriotic act-an
act which amounts to a duty-when he
saves samples of the strata penetrated
blythe drill and keeps a careful log of
the well.
I'm short, the evidence now obtaina-
BILE as to the presence of oil in these
areas of Southern Georgia is meager,
and drilling there is pure and simple
"wildcatting," with all the hazard Of
drilling in a new region in which oil
has not yet been discovered in COM
mercial quantities. Before an actua,
| test is made with the drill it is not
possible to know that oil does not ex-
list in this region, and the patriotic
who desires to prove the presence or
absence of oil in his neighborhood may
be justified in spending his money
provided he does it with the tull
knowledge of the financial risk b e as
sumes."

GERMANS DIVIDING BELGIUM
INTO FLEMISH AND WALLOON

THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS
August 1.-The Germans are steadily
carrying out their scheme of dividing
Belgium into two parts, comprising
Walloon or French speaking and the
Flemish provinces respectively, The
past month has seen the splitting up
of the ministry of the interior and the
ministry of foreign affairs. leaving on
II two departments not yet affected
those of finance and justice.
The Walloon ministries are being
transferred to Namur, the German-ap-
pointed capital of the French half OF
Belgium, the Flemish remaining at
Brussels.
Where the Belgian officials have re-
fused to lend their cooperation a nd
obey the German instructions, and
this has occurred in the case of a
number of leading administrators,
such dissenters have been replaced by
men more pliable in German hands, of
ten chosen from among those who
have lent themselves to forwarding the
separation idea or have otherwise COM
mended themselves to the occupying
power.
According to the "Taegliche Rund-
schau" each of the projected parts of
Belgium is to have its own budget.

GEORGIA CITIES
To PROTEST BILL

ATLANTA, Ga, August 2-Indica-
lions are that Georgia municipalities
will join a very strenuous protest
against a bill which had progressed to
the stage of favorable report by the
committe of the house to which it was
referred before anyone got wind of its
significance, and the effect of which
would be to prevent a city or town
from constructing or operating munich
pal lighting plant or gas plant where
such plant was already IN operation.
Mayor John c. Cook, of Columbus,
has written to Mayor Asa G. Gambler,
Of Atlanta, denouncing the bill as an
Ubiquitous piece of legislation and re-
questing him to join in protest
against its passage. AS the result OF
Mayor Cooks aggressive action in the
matter, Representative Joe Hill Hall,
of Bibb county, the author of the bill
has had it re-committed to General Ju-
dietary committee NO. or the Rouse
for a hearing
The bill provides that no person,
company, association or corporation,
whether public or private, shall con-
struct or operate public utility where
che is already in operation, without
first obtaining the approval of the Rail :
Rad Commission based on sho Wing
that such duplicate utility is ne2e 'sary
il the public service. Under the head
of public utilities" the bill specifies
street car lines, elecric light and pow
er plants, gas plants for all purposes
and telephone lines or systems.
The effect of the bill is to prevent.
without the approval of the railroad
commission, the advantage of compet1-
ton, whether such competition be in
augurated by rival company or by
the municipality itself.

OIL DRILLING IN
SOUTH GEORGIA IS
Of MUCH INTEREST


cradle interest is manifested in the pos
sibility of obtaining oil in some parts
: ot Southeast Georgia, notably in an
area near Fitzgerald, which several
companies have been organized to test.
! To aid in the development of this and
other areas in that region, if the con-
ditions seem to warrant it, the United
States Geological Survey, Department
OF the Interior, in cooperation with
/ the Geological Survey of Georgia, has
examined two areas in the southern
I part of the state and, in advance of a
somewhat more comprehensive review
o, the conditions affecting the posi-
BILE occurrence of oil there, makes pub
! lie the following statement for the
benefit of the general public:
"One of the two areas explored,
which in previous reports were refer
red to as possible areas Of uplift, lies
along Chattahoochee river, extending
from Columbus to the Florida line, the
other lies mainly along Withlacoochee
river, extending from point near Fitz-
gerald to the Florida line near Thorn
aeyille and Valdosta The evidence as.
to the presence of uplifts or anticlines
in these areas has hitherto been in
conclusive because the areas has not
been studied in sufficient detail
Surface Indications.
( THE surface indications of oil may
be classed as direct indications, such
as the presence as seeps of oil, gas,
or asphalt; and indirect indications,
such as the presence of an inticline
or upward fold of the rock beds, which,
a. experience has shown, it is fav-
orable place for the accumulation OF
OIL provided oil is present in the I'M
DERIVING rocks and other conditions
are favorable. Thus the object of the
investigation was, first, to determine
whether there were seeps of oil, gas,
o. asphalt in the areas, and, second to
obtain evidence of the presence or alb
sence of rock folds or anticlines. AL
though it is not possible at this time
to describe in detail the structure of
the area considered, it may be stated
that the evidence of the existence OF
anticlinal folds is unsatisfactory and
inadequate and affords no sufficient
ground for drilling for oil No direct
evidence of the presence of oil in the
underlying rocks, either as surface
seeps or as showing" in shallow
wells was found in these areas. Al
though the absence of such direct eY-I
dence does not prove that oil is not
present in the deeply buried rocks, it
leaves the question of the probable
presence of oil in commercial quanti-
ties more doubtful than if traces could
be found.
Indicating or drilling prospect
wells for oil, in any new region is, as
the term suggests, financially hazard
Gus and although it is a game in which
the stakes are large, the chance of sue
cess is proportionately small, especial
ly if the geologic structure of the sur
face indications is unfavorable. No
one who cannot well afford to lose
money should invest in it without due
consideration of the risk involved.
The drill, however, is the only instru-
ment by which the presence of com
mepcial pools Of oil at any point can
be definitely proved.

Army Cantonments To
Bear: Names Of Con-
federates Heroes
CeaeralsR. E. Lee, Beauregard
jackson and Wheeler Are
Thus To Be Honored

Washington, July 15.-Names of
American military heroes, including
several Confederate leaders, have
been given by the War Department
to the thirty-two cantonments in
which the national army and the Ma
tional Guard will be modified for
training.
In announcing the designations
tonight the department revealed
that the subject had been given con-
sideration by board of officers
headed by Brigadier General Kuhn,
chief Of the War College division.
In each case the name seected is
that Of a man from the section re-
presented by the troops concerned,
but not unpopular in the vicinity Of
the camp. Short names were chosen
for convenience, names like Wash
ington and Lincoln were omitted be-
cause of the temporary nature Of
the camps, and other names avoided
because they are duplicated by
prominent men now living.

DESCENDANT OF ETHAN AL
LEN OF FORT TICONDEROCA
ENLbSTS.

Butte, Mont, July 14.-Ethan Al
len, direct descendent of the brigi-
nal Ethan Allen of Fort Ticonderoga
fame, was accepted for enlistment in
the United States Marine Corps here
today. He has been principal of a
school in this state for the last three
years, and has also taught in Ohio
and North Dakota.
Aliens enlistment recalls the
early days of American history when
Fort Ticonderoga was held in turn
by the French and British until fin
ally captured by his illustrious
grandsire in ITS. It is another re-
minder of the wiping out of old diff
ferences between nations, happily
now serving together against COM
mon enemy.

German Envoy Rantzau ;
Succeeds Zimmerman
New Foreign Minister Is Now
At Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen, July 15.-The Ber,
lin correspondents report that
Count Brockdorff -Rantzau, the Ger
man minister at Copenhagen, ha.
been selected to succeed DR.. Alfred
Zimmerman as imperial foreign
secretary. This would mean the re-
turn of the aristocratic traditions of
the German service. ....
Count Brockdroff- is
''born," in the German sense of the
word, and highly connected at court
through his twin brother, who holds
a high court position, and through
his mother Countess Brockorff- Ran
tau, mistress of the most masterful
and dominant parsonage in court
life.
The Reichstag's proposed peace
resolution, which, according to the
Berlin Tageblatt, a majority of the
Bloc of the Center, Radicals and
Socialists decided Friday evening to
introduce unchanged on the reas-
sembling of the Reichstag, reads as
follows:
GAS on August 4, 1914, so on the
threshold of the fourth year Of the
war the German people stand upon
the assurance of the speech from the
throne-'We are driven by no lust
of conquest
Germany took up arms in de-
tense of its liberty and independ-
ence and for the integrity of its ter
ritories. The Reighstag labors for
peace and mutual understanding and
lasting reconciliation among the ma
tions. Forced acquisitions of terri
tory and political, economical and
financial violations are incompati-
BILE with such a peace.
"The Reichstag will energetically
promote the creation Of internation-
al judicial organizations. So long,
however, as the enemy governments
do not accept such peace; so long
as they threaten Germany and her
allies with conquest and violation,
the German people will stand to-
gether as one man hold out unshaken
and fight until the rights of itself
and its allies to life and development
are secured. The German nation uni
ted is unconquerable.
'The .Reichastag knows that in
this announcement it is at once with
the men who are defending the
fatherland; in the heroic struggles
they are sure Of the undying thanks
of the whole people,"
