Those Prison Camp Cruelties.

Those Prison Camp Cruelties.
Lieutenant "Hardboiled" Smith ad-
mits the cruelties inflicted on Ameri-
can soldiers in prison camps in France,
but declares that they were ordered by
his superior officers. His orders were
to "treat 'em rough and he carried
these out to the limit. It makes
American blood boil to read of the
things that were done to young fellows
sent up for such minor offenses as
being "absent without leave"
Whether actual orders were given
to inf1ict these cruelties remains to be
ascertained. And we have the promise
Of the Investigating subcommittee of
the house that it will go to the bottom
of, the affair-as, Of course, it is in
duty bound to do.
But whether orders were given or
not, there would seem to be little doubt
of the responsibility of Lieutenant
Smiths superiors. If they were mere
ly ignorant Of what was going on
they were criminally negligent. They
ought to have known. If they ordered
the cruelties so much the worse. 1t
is not likely that a mere lieutenant
could have done what Smith did with
out the support or connivance of those
over him.
There is something behind all this
that should be ascertained as well as
the question Of responsibility That
is the motive for it. Why should COM
missioned officers of the United States
army have any desire to maltreat
American citizens serving as enlisted
men? Is there a caste in the army
that seeks to maintain itself by such
measures? Is the motive to be found
in jealousy between regular and
guardsman, or between volunteer and
drafted man?
The American people are stunned
in the presence Of these revelations.
They cannot understand. It all seems
too brutal, too Prussian, for under
standing. The committee should with
out fear or favor pluck the heart out
Of the mystery.
There are other things about the
handling Of the American forces in
France that demand, and doubtless
will receive, close investigation. One
hears among the returned men good
deal of resentful talk about conditions
in the embarkation camp at St. Naz-.
aire, for example. What is the basis
for that? Is it true that General
Pershing sent to command this camp
an officer who had been denoted for
incompetence at the front?
The committee proposes to send
some of it's members to France to get
at the facts at first hand. This is we'll.
We want the whole unvarnished truth,
and then we want the shoulder straps
stripped from all who have been thus
unworthy Of their commissions and
their country's trust Minneapolis

excitement for a brief time.
Discovery Pool Well Defined.

Discovery Pool well Detneo.
The fact is the discovery pool
of the Healdton field seems to be
we'll defined, and it is probably that
from now on work in this field
will be confined to inside drilling.
The Wheeler field has brought
in very few new wells in the past
year, and none of remarkable note.
In the Graham field the past sum-
mer has been very quiet, but recent
ly there are signs of considerable
activity. At this writing, the No.
2 Kirk is on top OF the sand in
section 32 2s2w; Henry Markham
has spudded in section 6 3s2w; the
Sparks Development Co. has COM
pleted water we'll and is about
ready to spud in section 80 2s2w;
the Magnolia is ready to spud in
section IS 2s3w; c. R. Smith is
drilling in section 70 2s3w, offset
ting the Humble gasser in section
IS; the Empire in section "a 2s3w
is drilling at about 1000 feet; the
Woodport No. 2 is drilling in Sec
ton IS 2s2w, and the Oklahoma
Fox No. 2, which came in with
about 200 barrels production from
20 feet of sand at a depth a little
below 1000 feet, in section 7 2s2w,
has been drilled deeper to sec
ond sand, and is now producing
about 200 barrels from about 90
feet of sand all told
This new production in the north
of township 2 south, range 2 west,
has stimulated interest in that field
so that preparations are now be-
ing made for considerable new
drilling there, and it is not at all
improbable that an extensive field
may be developed in the north end
Of this township.
Developing Gas Field.
The Lone Star Gas Co. has eX-
tended its pipe line from the Fox
field as far east as the Kirk well
in section 81 2s2w, and it is re-
ported on good authority that the
Lone Star will do some drilling on
its own account in the Fox field,
and this gives hope that the big
gassers of that field will soon have
an outlet for their production. All
of which will no doubt stimulate
more drilling in that immense gas
field.
The Two-Four field has within
the past year become one of the
important fields of the southwest.
Beginning a year ago with four
small wells, there are now upward
of 90 producing wells in that field,
and the field has been extended
from the discovery wells in sec
ton 13 2s4w to sections "A, "A and
rs 2s4w, with the Magnolia now
drilling in section 10 2s3w, and the
Hexagon drilling in section Is
2s3w. This is a shallow field with
production from three separate
sands. The first sand is found at
about 800 feet; the second at about
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1919-01-01

900 feet, and the lower sand at
l,l00 feet. Most of the wells are
stopped in the 600-foot sand, al
though some are producing from
the 300-foot sand, and a few from
the l,l00-foot sand. The Magnolia
has pipe line in there now and is,
running all the oil it can carry.
The line is small one and is not
capable of carrying the full pro-
duction OF the field. A very con-
servative estimate places the aver
age production at about 20 barrels
to the well, although many wells
there are claiming much bigger
production, IS to 50 barrels being
claimed quite commonly, and in one
or two instances as high as 100 bar
rels has been claimed. The wells
in this field are coming in with so
much regularity now that new
we'll in that field attracts very lit
tie attention except when it hap
pens to be located so as to prove
an extension to the field.
The Lomore Oil Co. seems to be
pioneer in another new field, in
section SO 1s5w, and section l 2s5w.
This company has drilled three
wells there; two are producing Is
to 80 barrels of oil each from about
585 feet, and one is making 10000
900 cubic feet of gas from 675 feet.
The Magnolia and the Texas COM
panies are both drilling tests i'll this
field and the Lomore is prepared
to go on with a drilling campaign
as long as success attends its ef-
forts.
All along the south township,
as far west as range 5, there are op-
erations, and to the present time
there seems to have been no fail
ures there.
Stephens and Cotton Counties.
In Stephens and Cotton Counties
the past year has seen considera-
Bile drilling, which has met with but
moderate success up to the present
time, The discovery well was drilled
by the Magnolia Petroleum Co. in
section q ls9w about year ago,
and Immediately there was a rush
for acreage and prices went sky
ward for a time, but subsequent
drilling in that field has been some
what disappointing and there has
not been much acreage changing
hands for the past few months.
Many operators and workers
have left the Healdton field in the
past year, going to Brownwood
and Ranger, Texas, where a vast
field seems to be opening up. With
in the past few months the discov-
cry of prolific sand beneath the
town of Burkburnett, Texas, has
drawn again on the Healdton field.
The East Ardmore Oil and Gas
Co. has been busy during the past
summer blocking up acreage south
and east of ArdmOre, within about
six miles of the city limits, and now
announces the commencement of
a drilling campaign on this acreage.
The geologist that was employed
to examine this land reports that
there are very favorable formations
here which have all the earmarks
Of rich oil field.

A YEARS PROGRESS I'm
THE ARDMORE OIL FIELDS
By H. R. PUTNAM

The term "Healdton Oil Field"
has come to mean something more
than the original field of that
name, confined to township 4 south,
range 3 west. Locally, drilling op-
erations which have extended out
of and beyond the above named
township, are spoken of as the
Wheeler field, the Graham field,
the Fox field, the Two-Four field,
and so on; but production reports
frequently carry all this territory
under the one head as Healdton
production, therefore a resume Of
the Healdton field will naturally
include all these producing areas.
The Healdton field proper has
fallen off in production about 5000
barrels in the last year, owing to
the fact that there was very little
new production brought in; but it
is generally conceded that this field
still has long life befo crit. 1t is
probable that it has now settled to
what will be normal production for
some time to come, about $4,000
barrels.
In the early part of this year the
Roxana drilled into sand at about
1850 feet in section rs 4s3w that
made about 500 barrels flush pro-
duction, and there were hopes that
southeasterly extension would be
developed. A number of other deep
tests in that direction were imme-
diately started, and some of them
were drilled to a depth considera-
bly, below the RoXana production,
only to meet with disappointment.
In the immediate vicinity of the
Roxana No. 5 several offset wells
were drilled, but the l950-toot sand
was soon defined as small pool,
and that production soon fell off to
very moderate bumpers. There are
some who still adher to the belief
that there is a small neck of sand
leading out from section Is to a
bigger and better pool; but with
failures on practically all sides OF
the production in that section, there
seems to be no one now with the
courage to sink other test holes
in search of that lead.
About the time that the search
for the RoXana sand was going on
in the southeast corner of the field,
the Iokla struck nice flow Of high
