you a few item.
Ella is about ten miles east of
Columbia and is located in a
very good upland farming coun-
try. There is a general store,
post'office and a number of resi-
dences at its location. There is
also a church building in which
services are regularly held. The
Sunday-School is doing well, but
there are many who should at
tend that do not attend at all.
Mr.. ]. M. McQueary, who had
a son killed in France, has been
officially notified that his grave
had been located. AS soon as
possible Mr.. McQueary will have
the remains brought to Adair
County.
The wheat in this section,
that was sown early, is looking
fine. The late wheat is thin.
There has been but little corn
planting, on account of con-
tinuous rains.
Mr.. Rowe Wilson, who is en-
ployed in Ohio, was called home
on account of the serious illness
of his wife. She made no i'm

Never in the history of any
American Congress has there
been such an instance of
partisanship gone mad as in the
act of the Republican majority
on the House Ways and Means
Committee excluding minority
members from the conferences
at which the soldier bonus bill
was drafted. No Democrat on
the committee was permitted to
even know what was in the bill
until it was reported out, when,
with the o. K. of the steering
committee" it was ordered put
through the House as a strictly
Republican measure. Demo-
Gratis are citizens and taxpayers
will contribute their share of
the revenue with which the
bonus is paid, but they were
not even allowed to be present
when the bill was drafted,
much lessl have a voice in it's
preparation. Ei:How different
the attitude of the Democrats
when they were in the majority
during the war and consulted
and advised with the Republican
minority about all war measures
Democrats and Republicans a.
like fought and won. The Demo-
Gratis and Republicans alike
have a right to a voice in ad-
justing compensation for the
men who faced the foe and
wrought the victory.

Oil In Russell County.

1t is claimed that many new oil
wells will be drilled in the Greensboro
field during the present year, and the
report that>the Callahan interests in
at least one, and probably two of their
wells, show that their is oil on the
north side of the Cumberland river.
The McMead Oil Company struck a
fine grade of oil at depth of 24O feet
on the Campbell farm, which is on
the South side of the river.
Professor Arthur NJ. Miller, of the
State University, in a recent publica
tion issued by the Kentucky Depart
ment Of Geology under the title Oil
Excitement in the Sixties,' has the
following to say about this field:
CUMBERLAND RIVER OIL
FIELD.-It vas during this period
that the oil of the Cumberland River
District in Wayne, Russell, Cumber-
land and Clinton counties was discov-
cred. Successful wells put down were
as follows: The Gabbert in 1861, op-
posite the mouth of Crocus Creek, 1872
feet deep; the Ebert in the same year,
27O feet deep; the Sherman in 1866,
276 feet deep; the Phelps in the same
year, on Oil Fork, fifty feet deep; the
Gilbreath, date uncertain, twenty
feet deep; and the Huffaker in 1897,
on Otter Creek, 533 feet deep.
The Gabbert is estimated to have
produced during its life $4,000 barrels
Of oil, and the Crocus during the first
eleven hours after the oil was struck,
10000 barrels. The Huffaker was
first salt water well. Finally, how
ever, the salt water gave way to oil
and for a time it produced the latter
at the rate of fifty barrels per day
Ten thousand barrels of oil were
pumped from this we'll prior to 1862
Most of the oil was barged in the
crude state down the Cumberland
river, but the product of the Gabbert
well was prepared for market in re,
tinery erected in the neighborhood
The oil horizon appears to have beer
in the Cincinnatlan in all these wells

Representative nry T.
Rainey, of Illinois, recently told
the truth about the steering"
committee, when he challenged
its members to show why they
should not be condemned by the
public for trying to place an I'M
fair share of the tax burdens
brought on by the war on the
people rather than those who
made excessive war profits. Mr..
Rainey said to the House: "You
ought to demand of this million
aire steering committee which
controls the destinies of this
House that they cease their eff
forts to protect the war prof.
teers. And in order that the
country may know who these
gentlemen are who have con-
trolled the policies of that side
of the floor, here are their
names: Thomas B. Dunn, of
New York; Martin B. Madden,
of Illinois; Samuel E. Winslow,
of Massachusetts; Nicholas Long.
worth, of Ohio. These gentle
men whose names l have called
are reputed to be miIlionaires,
every one of them, and they
have never been heard to deny
it,, Mr.. Rainey made it clear
that the "Old Guard" Republi-
cans of the millionaire type are
running the Goth Congress. He
asserted that the Ways and
Means Committee, which shapes
all revenue legislation, has three
Republican millionaires. The
people cannot get a square deal,
be argued, so long as the House
steering committee" and the
Ways and Means Committee are
dominated by these millionaires.

financial policy inaugurated .un-
der the Federal Reserve act and
supplementary legislation, is as
serted by Senator King of Utah.
Replying to incidental criti-
cisms of the currency law by
Senator McCumber during a
Senate debate, Senator King
showed that one of the first
things attempted by the Dem
ocratic party when it came in
power was the enactment of
currency legislation which had
been lacking under Republican
leadership. The Federal Re-
serve act. he said, had stood the
test of both peace and war, aud
the country's finances are now
stabilized as they never have
been in history.

the war. "
Senator King reviewed the
history of financial legislation,
the inadequacy of the temporary
measure known as the Aldrich-
Vreeland bill and the failure of
the Senate under the leadership
of Senator Aldrich to enact COM
prehensive currency legislation
that would meet every condition,
and called attention to the num-
Der of panics under the old fiscal
policy fastened upon the coun-
try by the Republican party.
Concluding, Senator King chal-

a plank in their Chicago plat

ing he would delight to see such
an issue presented to the people.
