reSentatives are dropping in on US

that they are planning something to
pull of in this territory whenever
they consider the time ripe.
The "Blue Sky" act of the last Gen.
eral Assembly, which was neither /ap-
proved nor disapproved by the Gov
ernor, became a law Of the State on
Thursday last, June 18th, and is now
in full force and effect. 1t has spec
isl bearing upon the sale of oil stocks
in the State in that it is unlawful to
offer for sale or sell the stock of any
company, either domestic or foreign,
until after due authority and license
has been granted by the Banking De.
partment of the State. This is done
only after. the closest Investigations
as to their manner of organizations,
It also fixes the rata of commission to
be paid on the sale of stocks, which is
only fair compensation for services
rendered Such Law is already in ex-
istence fnemanV other states and the
penalty for its violation is such that
worthless stock schemes no longer
thrive in those states.

oil at Greensboro.

There sno longer a doubt but oil
has been found, in paying quantities,
on Campbell Bros, farm near Creels.
boro, In Russell county. For some
time fiattering reports have been CIV
en- out in regard to the prospects in
this particular locality, and while
many we're optimistic, there we're
doubling Thomases, but at this time
all doubts have been dispelled. and
everybody in this section are satisfied
that paying oil field has been open
ed, and that the territory will be de-
veloped at once.
In order to back our statement we
will announce that Mr.. John W.
Flowers, cashier Of the Bank of Co
lumbia, Mr.. W. A. Coffey, County
Attorney Of Adair, Mr.. A. D. Pate
son, implement dealer, and four or
five other representative citizens, of
this place, visited the scene last We'd
nesday They found that two wells
had been brought in and the third
one started. These wells were put
down by the McMead Oil and Gas
Company, number of local men haV-
ing interests in the way of stock. 1t
is confidently believed by those who
have been upon the ground, that No.
l OF these wells will yield one hundred
barrels per day and No. equally as
much. The drillsr feels sure that the
third we'll will be brought in at once.
Mr.. Patteson brought a quart of the
oil home and it is pronounced extra
fine, as its analysis will show which
is given below
Wooden tanks are now being made
which will be used until metal tanks
arrive. This oil will probably be
barged and shipped by river to Burn
side. Again, it is less than twenty
miles from these wells to a pipe line
running to Cumberland county from
Somerset.
Both Mr.. Flowers and Mr.. Coffey
speak in the most glowing terms OF
the outlook, saying that all indica.
lions point to Campbell Bros, becom-
ing very wealthy men The bringing
in Of these wells will stimulate other
operators, and ere long a number Of
wells will be put down in this section
of che State. 1t is believed that a
number of capitalist will reach rhis
locality at an early day. They should
be given the courUeSieS that such ar
immense industry has been brought t
this part of Kentucky and which will
grow as the days come aud go.
