OIL RIG COMPLETED

The Adamana Oil and Land
Company announces that they
have completed their derrick,
which rises to a height of "a feet
and Secretary w. j. Hennessey
states that they have erected
posts and doubly braced the rig
in order to withstand the heavy
winds that may be expected.
These braces are 2x10 2x8. The
corners are reinforced with 2x10
and 2x12 timbers, and heavily
braced all the way up; also doub-
ly guyed at all four corners.
The derrick is of standard heighth.
Mr.. Hennessey says that as
soon as the crown block arrives
from Los Angeles the rig will be
ready for operation, which will
mean that the actual boring for
oil will commence early next
week. The crown block is ex-
pected daily and has been order
ed from the Lucey Supply Com
pany of Los Angeles.
AS the rig is in place, the
equipment for it is being assemb-
led in its proper position as fast
as possible by expert mechanics.
The boiler has been placed about
450 feet west Of the rig, SO that
in case a heavy pressure of gas
is encountered there may be no
danger of ignition.
The company has two water
reservoirs, both of which con-
tain the necessary fluid for drill
ing purposes.
Taken altogether, the company
now has practically everything
in place for the commencement
of actual work of drilling to the
oil sands that geologists tell us
in no uncertain language are
present at a reasonable depth.

Mr.. ScOrse Visits Town

Harry H. Scorse was a busi-
ness visitor in Snowflake Tues
day. Mr.. Scorse is one among
the original boosting pioneees of
Northern Arizona. Since his
first landing in this section years
ago he has steadfastly predicted
great things in store for his a.
dopted land and has lived to see
many of his predictions come into
reality. Long time ago he rode
the mail from Houck to Prescott
and many trips were made go
ing and coming without meeting
up with a white man. There
were savage Indians, but they
were expected to show up oc-
casionally and unexpectedly.
Mr.. Scorse has lived thru the
thick and thin of it, remained on
the job eternally and now he is
counted among the capitalists of
Arizona, owning property throu-
out Northern Arizona and in the
Salt River valley.

MORE OIL INTERESTS

Jack Marden. manager of the
Holbrook Oil Company, arrived
a day or so ago from Jerome,
where he has been for some time
past in the interest of the COM
pany. He was joined here yes
terday by L. A. Clampitt, the
well-known driller of Los
Angeles. who comes to look over
the ground in contemplation of
the commencing on a contract to
drill one or two wells for the
company. While here the minor
details of the affair will be closed
up, and no doubt active opera
tions will be started soon.
Mr.. Marden says, further, that
the company has been financed
for the sinking of two wells in
the Holbrook oil field. The plac-
ing of an additional large block
of stock with Eastern capitalists
makes it necessary that all stock
will be withdrawn from the mar
ket.
Mr.. Marden also authorizes the
statement that business assoc
iates of Mr.. Meiklejohn are now
figuring with the Aztec Pc
troleum Securities Company for
a large acreage that will no
doubt insure the formation of
another company and the sink
ing of other well. -Holbrook

WORK OR FIGHT"
To be Enforced by the War
Department

With the extended draft regu-
lations taking in nearly all of the
able bodied men Of the country,
it is essential that all registrants
for military service recognize the
fact that the work or fight order
issued by the provost marshal
general still holds.
Striking out the strike clause
in the new draft regulation pas
sed by congress has led to the
false idea that the work or fight
order has been cancelled. A
wire from Secretary of War
Baker in respect to this matter
says in part:
"A man who gets an industrial
exemption by reason of his being
an indispensable operative in an
indispensable industry ceases to
haye that exemption as soon as
he ceases to be an operative in
that industry. The boards have
never applied this rule in cases
of bona fide disputes between
labor as an aggregate and en-
ployed as an aggregate, but they
have always prevented the men
taking refuge behind industrial
exemption and then discontinue
ing the work for which he re-
ceived exemption. Thus the ap-
parent purpose of the senate
amendment (referred to as the
strike clause) is already in opera
ton.
THE reason for the exemp-
tion of married men is depend
ency and status. Give wide pub
licity to this fact so as to show
men in non essential industry
that they should get into essen
tial industry that they should get
into essential industries at once
and stay there in spite of the
fact that the strike clause has
been stricken from the bill.
The nearest office of the y. S.
Employment Service will give
full information as to where the
nearest essential industry is To-
Gated, also hours, pay and trans
portation.

SUFFER- CARRIED
SNOWFLAKE
Golfer CARRIED STATE

Incomplete returns of Tues
days primary election indicates
that Golfer carried the state over
his opponents, the |. w. WIS.
thru-out the mining districts go
ing solid for him, this strength
combined with the Hunt machine
gave Golfer a big vote, thus if
he is elected governor the Hunt
pets among that gang of traitors
may continue to have their pict-
ures took" with the governor
of Arizona.
That Snowflake can justly claim
to be 100 per cent American, we
are glad to show that Sutter, the
only anti-I. w. w. candidate on
the Democratic ticket. carried
the Snowflake box. This fact
also rebukes the accusation that
Snowflake Republicans register
ed as Democrats in order to vote
for Golfer, claiming that Golfer
would be an easy mark for Tom
Campbell in the general election,
Snowflake being Republican.
The county total returns are as
follows:
Governor: Golfer 45O, Osborn
223, Sutter 203.
State Senate: Parr 476, Nc
Cauley 314.
Representative: Richards $50,
Flake 23O.
Sheriff: Harp SIG, Dunham
800.
Attorney: Greer 46O, Larson
4O6.
Supervisor: Cresswell $40,
Flanagan 469, LaPrade 400.
Assessor: Gardner 338, Pace
261, Baldwin 225.
The Republicans had no con-
test in this county.
