with the Advertising campaign now

should attract flow Of eastern set

next spring Mr.. Lange gave us the
following very brief story of the ex
Mbit:
"Mellette county, for the first time
had an exhibit at the State Fair. Ow
ing to the fact that we are so far from
the railroad it was thought best to
take the exhibit the entire distance by
auto truck This meant a five hun

this exhibit stood up is good indica
ton as to the quality Of the products

"About l25,0O0 people stopped to
see the exhibit. 1t was the greatest
advertisement that the county ever had

FOR THE MULEHEAD HYDRO
ELECTRIC SITE.

Recently a bunch Of business men
from the railroad towns OF the Rose
bud country made an extended auto
mobile booster trip through some of
the counties laying east of the Mis-
sourI river, with view to boosting
Rosebud country, and also with the.
Object of arousng int rest in the Mule
head power site on the Missouri river
between Gregory and Charles Mix
counties, for the location of the states 8
first hydro electric undertaking.
Judging from the exchanges that
come to this office, considerable en-
thusiasm has been worked up through
the efforts of these boosters, to make
IA strong, and we hope winning fight
for the Mulehead site. There are two
sites for the states first hydro electric
enterprise, under consideration, one
at Mobridge, in the northern part of
the state, and the Mulehead site.
The engineers, the commission or some
one has practically settled on the Mo
bridge site. bat the matter Of location
will probably not be finally settled un
til the Legislature meets early next year
We are stIong for the Mulehead site
for the location of this plant, and wa
are stronger than horse radish for the
development OF this hydro electric
power plant, and would like to see
the state get busy on the actual con
s.ructiOn work of this project at the
earliest possible moment, for we real
lze that such plant means prosperity
for this state, it means more man,ifac
turing enterprises within ou' borders,
it means cheaper and better electric
service, aud may mean the solving Of
our perplexing fuel problem, and a
net work Of interurbdn railways. In
short it will mean an era OF prosperity
such as the stale has never known,
and therefore we want them to speed
the day when this project will be a
reality, Let everybody get behind
this Mulehead site and boost.

Mexican Petroleum
Gets 100000 Acres
OF New Oil Lands
Doheny Says Territory Ac.
quired Shows Promise
for Development; Drill
ing May BE Delayed

E. L. Doheny, president Of the Mexi-
can petroleum Company, confirmed
yesterday reports that the company
mas mas acquired leases on approximately
ooo,o00 acres of oil lands located just
north of the Tampico district. The
new acreage will more than double
present leases, which cover about 600,-
wy acres and will bring the total up to
1,400 900 acres.
Mr.. Doheny said that the company's
policy of obtaining additional oil
acreage will be explained more fully
IN the next annual report. The lands
leased to the Mexican Petroleum Com
pany were owned by former President
Manuel Gonzalez and were leased for
a period of forty years from his heirs
and assigns. The rights to drill for
oil were obtained from the present
owners Of the land.
The new territory, according to Mr.
Doheny, shows great oil seepages and
adds greatly to the life of the Mexican
ties. Certain biologists, it is stated,
estimate that there is more oil under
lying the new leases than under Mexi-
can Petroleum's old territory.
Drilling operations in the new
district under lease, it is under
stood, will not be begun until condi-
tions in Mexico have become more set
tied. In this connection much inter
est was shown yesterday in a reported
interview with Provisional President
de la Huerta, who at a luncheon to
foreign newspaper correspondents was
reported among other things to have
declared that American oil producers
are trying TO avoid or reduce payment
of taxes, royalties, etc. His reported
Endorsement Of union Of the prole-
tariat Of an international character
was also considered of utmost impor-
lance, If true.
The attitude taken by the Associa-
ton of Producers Of Petroleum in
Mexico was that the provisional Presi-
dent had been misquoted. In a state
ment the association said in part:
ut Is impossible for US to believe
that the reported interview is cor
rect statement of the remarks made
by President de la Huerta or of his
attitude. He knows that we have not
been trying to evade payment Of taxes
