Good Prospects for

A telegram has been received
by Mr.. H. w. Etz from Mr.. Jas.
B. Sherwood, the oil man, from
Chicago, saying he would be here
in a short time to take up the mat
ter of getting the oil development
going in the Benson field. Mr..
Sherwood left here for the East a
short time ago on matters concern
ing the local oil development prop
osition, but was taken i'll and has
been in a Chicago hospital for sew
eral weeks. He expected to be on
the ground here before this time to
push things along, but his illness
caused the delay.
Already, as before stated in the
Signal, a considerable amount of
ground has been signed up, and
Mr.. Etz states that Mr.. Sherwood
expects to come here and see the
landowners in person and have the
matter of leases closed up, so that
the actual work of drilling man be-
gin. Farmers are still signing up,
three or four parties having come
in within the past two or three
weeks.
This oil development is matter
of vital Importance to the future of

Johnson Mines Make
Good Showing
This Promising Camp Will
Become Big Producer

Mr.. H. P. Merrill, formerly the
cashier of the Bank of Benson, has
just returned from an inspection of
the properties of the Keystone
Copper Company at Johnson, of
which he is large stockholder,
and he says that the company will
undoubtedly be one of the large
copper producers of the state. The
work is in charge of u. R. Miller,
and the main workings are on the
Hagerman claim, where the main
shaft has been sunk to depth of
635 feet. The power house being
well equipped with a large hoist,
compressor, blowers, a substantial
head frame forty feet high, and
everything necessary to carry on
the work in a safe and economical
1nanner, the rock being broken
with power drills.
In sinking this main shaft fine
body of shipping ore was encoun-
tered at the s4O-foot level and con-
tinued to the 65-foot mark, and
considerable drifting and stoping
was done on this ore body, and
many cars of high grade ore ship
ped to the smelters. Much ore
still remains to be taken out. On
reaching the 28O-foot level a body
of low grade iron and sulphide ore
was broken into and it continued
for depth of about sixty feet. At
the 312-foot level drifts and cross
cuts were run on this ore body
which shows up very promisingly,
the rock being heavily impregnated
with mineral, shot all through the
formation.
It is the intention of the COM
pany to continue the cross-cut at
this 312-foot level until the hang
ing wall is reached, where ores of
high value are expected to be

found, it being the history of the
mines in this district that all the
high grade ore is found on the
hanging wall.
At the 6OO-foot level the sui
phides are scattered all through the
rock. In fact, the entire shaft
FROM top to bottom is in ore or
mineral of some kind, and in places
it is of high grade.
Adjoining the Hagerman claim
on the northwest is the 0 K group,
belonging to this same company,
and now being developed by in
cline shafts with drifts and slopes.
At a depth of a hundred feet a
body of high grade oxide ore was
encountered and the drifts run on
this ore body show it to be at least
seven feet in width, with we'll
defined walls which reach to the
surface in some places. Several
cars of rich ore have been shipped
from this ore body, and it certainly
looks very encouraging and worthy
of more development work and ex-
ploration.
The incline Is about 200 feet in
depth. A gasoline hoist has been
installed, and the air drills are cut

Adjoining the o K claim on the

to continue their shipments.
