lie stated that the roar of the
well could be heard at his
house, three quarters of a mile
from the well. 1t was making

clarcd.
This week should bring u verdict
at the test OF the Nlchlos Oil and
Drilling company, II miles south
west of Chlckasha on the Farwell
farm, section 1858, as far as the
present sand is concerned.
Pipe was run in the well yester.
day and the baillng out process was
slated to start this morning. BY
this evening fair indication of the
prospects should be obtained. They
are down around 1912 feet with an
eleven inch hole. From that point
to the bottom OF the hole. they
drilled with six.inch bit. There's
a good shoulder on which to set the
casing and test Saturday by means
Of couple of joints of pipe on the
bottom of the drill stem, demon
strated that a good seat is available.
They anticipate no trouble whatever
in shutting off the water. In fact
test Saturday evening showed
that the water could be, and In fact
was. entirely shut off.
There is a possibility that several
days work will be necessary to bring
the we'll around, if indeed the sand
Is capable Of producing q CONNER
cial well The hole, full of heavy
mud has been standing on the open
sand for several days. This. oil men
point out. may drive the oil back
into the sand. 1t is believed, how
ever, that with considerable swab-
bing they will be able to make it a
commercial proposition.
It is also pointed out that there's
a possibility of enough gas pressure
! to force the oil out when the bail
ing lifts the weight OF the mud off
the sand.
It's a Good Sand.
There's no question about there
being good sand at his present
depth. When the sand was struck,
he cored and rat-tailed into 1t to
considerable depth, testing il from
time to time. Yesterday, Mr.. Nichlos
stated that he had Al feet Of sand
according to measurements during
the coring process. This sand Is
broken to some extent.
Scouts, production men and lease
men from the Carter, Magnolia and
other companies have tested the
cuttings and it was on their advice
that Mr.. Nichlos is setting pipe for
test. They believe that, barring
the possibility Of the oil having been
driven back too far into the sand by
the mud pressure, Nichlos will make
some sort of a well at his present
depth.
Saturday evening, while the pumps
were running, rainbows of oil showed
on the slush. There were also gas
bubbles, indicative of a productive
sand having been opened.
The sand testing oil and gas, the
rainbows and bubbles on the slush
indicate productive sand but the ex-
tent of productiveness is matter
that can only be determined by bail
ing out. swabbing and washing the
sand. There might be a good well.
a mighty good well, from the show
, ings found, and again the sand might
not carry a great deal of oil or gas,
oil men state.
All are agreed on one point. 1t

u. S. Born Japanese
Win Right To Land
Bought By Fathers

MARYSVILLE, Calf, March TO-
Right of two American born Japa-
nese citizens to possession OF land
purchased for them by their father,
a native of Japan, was upheld yester-
day in a decision said to be the first
Of its kind In California.
The decision was rendered by Su
perior Judge Z. r. Mcdaniel In the
case OF the state of California against
Jusuke Shingu and his two minor
children, Sunni Shingu and kiyako
Shingu The land in question was
purchased for s30,500 from G. l.. and
Mary Douglas, in Sutter county IN
April, 1919.
Attorney General L. 5. Webb
sought TO have the property eschew
to the state on a claim Of fraud and
violation OF the California anti -alien
land law In the purchase Of the land.
Judge Mcdaniel, who declared that
he favored the anti-alien land law
and always had held that II was con-
stitutional, said that under the con-
stitution any American born person
has the right TO possession in the
United States of property in his own
right. In regard TO the purchase OF
the land by the father, Judge Me-
Daniel said that proof of fraud was
not conclusive, that Jusuke Shingu
did not try TO take possession, but
the law does not say he can not ad-
vance the purchase price for the
benefit of his children. who, as
American citizens, are not under the
disability which stand in his way
Attorney General Webb stated that
should the court hold the transac-
tion to be within the law, that IT
would require no proof to conceive
rapidly expanding Japanese owner
shin OF land, with 100000 Japanese In
California and their children rapidly
increasing.
Judge McDaniels' answer was.
1.-The statement describes an im-
probable situation and II the fault
exists, the blame and fault are basic,
growing as they do out of possibil-
ties created by the fourteenth amend
ment TO the constitution of the United
states which declares that oil per-
sons born or naturalized in the United
States are subject thereof, wherein
they reside.
Judge McDaniels said the state
held the rights OF minor children as
grantees in the case.
The suit originally was filed IN
Sutter county but later was trans
ferred TO Yuba county.
