BOAT IS FOUND;
FEARS FELT FOR
SURVEYING PARTY


KINGMAN, Ariz., Sept. 22.-One of
the boats used by the Geological Sur
vey party which is charting the
Colorado River came floating down
the river today at point 200 miles
below where the explorers are sup
posed to be.
According to advices here the river
has been running high and its waters
are swift and dangerous In the gor-
ges through which the party Is
travelling. The party was last heard
from September 13 and contact could
not possibly be made until the last
of this month.
Fear is expressed, by the finding
of the boat, that some of the mem
bers of the party have been lost.

BIC ATTENDANCE
Predicted FOR
CLOSING NIGHT
Bad Weather Cuts Attend
ance But Little-Crowds
Fill Big Fair Tent.

Although all attendance records
have already been broken, tonight,
the final night of the Southeastern
Alaska Fair, promises to bring out
the biggest crowd of this years ex-
position, according to J. F. Mullen,
President of the Fair Association.
The attendance up to the present
time Is estimated to have passed the
5000 mark this afternoon.
When Miss Eta Brown is crowned
a. Carnival Queen after the regular
program of the evening is finished,
the big tent Is expected to be filled
with her merrymaking subjects. Car
lival fun is the big drawing card
OF the evening.
Enthusiasm Undamped.
Although rain foil steadily and
heavily all last evening, there was
but little falling down from the at
tendance figure of the opening day
of the Fair. 1t Is officially esti-
mated that 1900 persons passed
through the entrance of the Fair
building yesterday, some 200 short
ot the previous day. This after
noon's attendance brought the num-
ber up to above the 1900 mark,
and it is believed that the total at
tendance for the Fair will reach
5000 before the merrymakers doff
their masks and the Fair formally
ends tonight
The wet weather failed to dampen
the enthusiasm of the visitors which
filled the big tent from 1880 p. m.
until midnight. The Fashion Show,
scheduled for last night, was post
poned owing to the tent leaking
above the stage. If conditions are
favorable 1t will be put on tonight
at O'Clock. The vaudeville pro-
gram last night was equally as
good as that of the opening night
end another fine bill is promised
for this evening.
Awards Being Made.
Awards were made yesterday in
the needlecraft, domestic science,
manual arts, booths, and pretty baby
contests This morning judges were
busy in awarding prizes in the ag-
ricultural. poultry, and blue fox

ANOTHER KIND OF CLUB

The entrance of women into poll
tics has had beneficial effect upon
the country, but it has not gone far
enough.
Going to the poles and voting at
election time, does not constitute
the entire duty of the woman in pol
itics. Her first and prime object
should be the selection of the best
people available in the primaries, in
erder that the candidates may be of
calibre and standing that the people
will be assured competent and hon
est officials. regardless of party
wins.
There is no better way of doing
this than by forming women's S clubs
for the investigation and discussion
of the merits of the various people
who seek a place on the party
ticket.
The past record and history Of
every person who seeks public Of
fee should be carefully scrutinized
and we know of no one who is bet
ter fitted to pass judgment upon a
mans past than are the women who
have benefited or suffered from the
acts.
Women invariably judge a man
from the standpoint of right and
wrong and justice. Too many men
are content to consider only that
of policy and political expediency.

ERRORS IN THE PAPERS

The editor does not want any
one to send him any more copies Of
his paper in which they find mis-
takes" complains a Missouri ex-
change. IF they find perfect
copy. however, he will pay a big
price for it. If the fool critic who
hunts for mistakes in newspapers,
would find them all, he would be
kept busy. We will be pleased to
buy copies of any paper which can
be proven entirely free of errors,
either typographical or in statement
of fact. We will be pleased to find
a merchant who never made a mis-
take putting up an order; a lawyer
who never lost case through his
own errors; a doctor who never
wrongly diagnosed case; drug
gist who never made a mistake; a
postoffice official who never put mail
in the wrong box; a woman who
never forgot to put in salt while she
was cooking or to put tea in the tea
pot before putting in the water.
Bring in some of your mistakeless
parasons who find. it so easy to
criticise the newspapers, and we'll
give 'em the chance of their lives to
find out whether they are really
human"

Rich Companies
Busy Drilling for Oil
in San Juan Basin
Richest Producers in America
Quietly Develop what Geologist
Declare the COuntry's Rich.
est Oil or Gas Deposits

The virgin oil fields in the San
Juan basin have now become the
mecca for the Standard Oil company
and less prominent operators since
the recent opening by the Midwest
company of its initial we'll on the
Hogback structure, its crude pro.
duct testing higher in gasoline than
any other well in the United States,
remarks the Aztec Review. Elk.
perts assert that when this we'll is
further drilled its daily production
will approximate 10000 barrels.
This we'll created sensation thru.
out the country and is largely re-
sponsible for the invasion of geolo.
gists and seekers of oil lands.
More than score of structures
have already been discovered, and
this number will probably be in
creased to upwards of 100 before
the year ends. San Juan basin is a
large region, furnishing ample room
for hundreds of operating compan-
les and opportunities for almost
countless fortunes. The develop.
ment of the oil field has only begun
but the phenomenal results in both
gas and oil assures extensive oper-
ations in the several virgin fields
from now on.
Monday the boiler and more cas-.
ing arrived in Pennington for the
Producers & Refners company's S
new we'll on the Ute structure about
IS miles north of Aztec. Drilling
will start about the first of Febru-
ary.
The Midwest company is receiv-
ing additional machinery and other
equipment. AS soon as a chain of
wells reach the producing stage a
pipe line will be laid to Gallup, and
it is expected work on this will start
in early summer.
T. B. Hall and Oklahoma asso-
ciates have selected acreage on a
we'll defined structure for their ini-
tial well, and will soon have rig in
operation. They expect to tap the
first oil sand at goo feet depth.
Manager Hubbell will resume
drilling the Glade Oil & Gas Syndi.
cate third we'll Monday, temporary
suspension having been due to be.
lated arrival of casing.
