President Wilson has submitted to

treaty with Germany. A letter from
the President accompanied the in
stlument. saying the results was
written in interchanges among the
Allies during the peace negotiations.
The Presidents letter contains ex-
plantations of certain features Of the
treaty which the German delegates
requested should be put into written
form, and they provide: A commits
sion to direct dismantling the island
of Heligoland; whatever Germany
pays German citizens for damages to
mines, railways, ETC., shall be con-
sidered a part of the indemnity pre-
scribed; List of persons to be turn
ed over to the Allies for trial must

met fairly without recognizing that
the cost of living is rising rapidly.
and the purchasing power of the dol
lar is rapidly shrinking.
The President has asked the House

Doctor A|OnzO C|eaver, Eminent
GeO|OgiSt, Preparing To Take
The Field For Investigation
OTHER. EXPEDITIONS ARE REPORTED
Since arrival at Nogaes of Doctor AonzO Ceaver the
geOOgs months oil exploration in Sonora has been 60
ing apace. Lately it has quickened and is assuming
systematic development.

Once again has the eternal vigi-
lance of THE OASIS enabled pub
location of the following exclusive
oil news of Sonora.
Mr. w. P. McCemas, of California
the Boludo mines and Nogales, with
a party of Los Angeles Friends, has
just returned from Guaymas and a
two week trip in a motor boat on an
extensive trip along the coasts of
the Gulf of California.
1t is learned that one of the Nc
Comas party said that on the trip
they met Mexican government
steam launch with two representa-
tives of we'll known Mexican getle-
man resident in Nogales, accom-
panied by a geologist. In EXchang-
ing the usual courtesies between
sailors on the briny deep the launch
party said they had been to Isla
Angel de la Guardia ("Guardian
Angel Island''), to inspect the long
alleged chapopote, or oil seepages on
that island; and that they had
found conditions as represented.
They said, also, that they were
cruising for other oil indications
along the Lower California side of
the Gulf; and as soon as their quest
was finished the launch party would
return and report to their principal.
Guardian Angel Island is situated
in the Gulf of California, about mid
way between the port of Guaymas
and the mouth of the Colorado
River. The island is about seventy
miles long, averages about twelve
miles wide, and lies about forty miles
northwest of the celebrated Tiburen
(Shark) Island, inhabited by the
equally celebrated aboriginal tribe of
Seris Indians.
The island mentioned has not been
explored much by the public as it is
said to have been under concession
for some time to a prominent and
far seeing Mexican gentleman. THE
OASIS wishes the concessionaire
the greatest and speediest good luck.
The chapopote mentioned above is
a tarry seepage which indicates oil
from an asphalt base, used for fuel
purposes.
The McComas party also said they
had heard tidings of still another
steam launch, headed for the Gulf,
elaborately equipped, and carrying a
number of Los Angeles people look
ing for oil. When tales of new oil
fields get aboard Los Angeles peo-
pie are quick to act-as witness Mr..
Edward Doheney's wonderful success
in the virgin field Of Tampico.
All of the McComas party were
very reticent and indisposed to dis
