Oregon Basin

Florence Oil Co
The writer made a trip with Mr.
Paul Ache to the Florence Oil Com
pany we'll, located on the south dome
of the Oregon Basin. This Company
has established a first class oil camp,
having built a good road leading from
the main highway into the camp.
They are using a 74-foot standard
rig with a 24-foot base and a Cali
fornia top. The combination of ma
tural gas and good water makes drill
ing conditions ideal.
Mr.. Ache follows the old theory:
the quickest way to a mans heart is
through his stomach. He has an hon.
est-to-goodness cook, serve excep-
tionally good food and plenty of it.

the East has little or no conception
of the La Toilette strength in other
parts of the country. The most con-
sentative estimate given is that La
Toilette will finish in the fight with
not less than 81 ELECTORAL votes. Not
one of these observers believes there
is any chance of La Toilette being
elected, but they are almost all con-
WINGED that he will have sufficient
strength to prevent Coolidge from
getting the 266 ELECTORAL votes ne
cessary to a choice. They do not
concede even the possibility of Davis
gaining such strength.
The solid South of course is con-
coded to Davis and it is admitted that
he may carry Nebraska. This would
give Davis los ELECTORAL votes. With
81 votes conceded to La Toilette and
the 165 votes conceded to Davis this
would total an anti Coolidge vote of
246, leaving Coolidge only 10 votes
more than necessary to choice. To
maintain this figure, Coolidge would
have to carry every one of the doubt
full states. The loss of Ohio or of IL
linois or any combination of the small
Ter states totalling 10 votes either to
La Toilette or Davis would throw the
election into the House.
Leaders in all the big parties adj
nit there are nine states in the doubt
full column. AS the situation exists
today no one has any way of knowing
how these states will vote. These
states and the electoral vote of each
is as follows: California, 10; Colo
RADIO, s; New Mexico, 8; Kansas, 10;
Missouri, IS; Illinois, 20; Indiana, Is;
Ohio, "a, and Michigan, Is.
