THINKS PAYETTE MAY
Be AN OIL PROSPECT
Gas Emitted From Old Well
Leads to Theory That Oil
Strata Lies Beneath; Use
Gas for Lighting.

Payette, Feb. 1.-The Payette Cold
Storage company five years ago
drilled six inch we'll to a depth of
275 feet, for the purpose of getting a
large supply of good water for making
artificial ice. Due to the water being
heavily mineralized, making it unfit
for ice making, the well was capped
for three years. Then the O. s. l.
railroad wanted a sample OF the water
from this we'll to see il It could be
used for locomotives passing through
Payette, but the railroad could not
use 1t.
When C. C. Springstein, the engi-
neer at the cold storage plant, took
the cap off the well two years ago he
discovered a considerable pressure OF
gas. He fixed trap TO catch the
gas and arranged a gas burner and
three gas lights in the engine room of
he plant. Lighting the gas burner
and three lights two years ago, they
- 1911 tkAti iiaIieo dt'y tbil-
tinuously since.
Mr. springstein has lived In the
Kansas and Oklahoma gas and oil
fields for years. His brother brought
in the biggest gas Well in history in
Oklahoma several years ago. Mr..
Springstein feels certain in his own
mind that the gas in the we'll at the
cold storage Pant has a petroleum
tase, and that there must be a deposit
Of oil somewhere in this section.
Ordinarily Mr.. Springstein said,
If you don't keep a gas well dry. the
water pressure will drown out the
gas. The Payette well is full of water
all the time since it was drilled five
years ago, and still the gas pressure
remains the same day after day. The
three gas lights in the engine room
retain the same degree Of brightness
and the flame in the gas burner is
colored blue with yellow tips and con
tains much heat" Mr.. Springstein
said the gas burner will boil water in
teakettle in three minutes.

CLUB GLEANINGS
Soldiers Memorial Fund Originated
With Woman's Club.

While that fact seems to be quite
lost sight of in the general enthusiasm
which surrounds the idea of building a
memorial to those who have made the
supreme sacrifice, 1t Is nevertheless
true that a woman's organization, the
Society of Owyhee Daughters, was the
first organization in the state to offer
as far as that body knows. The society
met directly after the sad news of tn }
death of Lieutenant John Regan, who
was an Owyhee county boy, vas an
nounced, and after some consilura-
ton devoted the sum OF $50 to a fund
for the erection Of suitable memorial
for Idaho soldiers who died In battle
This was early in September, and rs

INTERESTING QUESTIONS.

Recently the supreme court handed
down decision holding in brief that
appeals from the orders of the public
utilities commission should take the
course of other appeals and instead of
coming direct on applications for
writs of review to the supreme court
should come up through the district
courts. The Rupert Electric company
proposes to follow this action.
II the Fourth judicial district court
arants the application for writ of
review the action Will, ii Is said, es-
tablish a precedent in district courts
to allow appeals from the orders OF
tie commission in all cases where the
parties involved care to follow that
Procedure. II the writ is granted the
question will then arise also As to
whethea. or not the district court will
try the case de novo" or as IL il
was new case and will this create
a possibility Of such cases being TAX
