new ERA PRESIDENT
WAS HERE THIS WEEK

DR.. ]. M. Cunning of Spokane,
president of the New Era Oil &
Gas company, arrived in Kevin
Monday for short visit with
general manager, Frank Nichol-
sen. While DR.. Cummings visit
here was quite brief, he had a
few minutes to spare at the Re-
view office. In his conversation
regarding their plans in the Ke-
vim field, he stated that the COM
pany were preparing to put down
another we'll close to their gas
producer which is furnishing heat
and lights for our city. He also
stated that his company would
erect an office in the city, and
that they would do everything in
their power for the betterment
of the town. This was DIR. Gun
ning's first trip here since he was
made president of the New Era
at a recent meeting held, taking
the place of P. w. Dueck. The
DR.. is not only a professional
man, but he seems to have the
mack of directing an oil company
and we take it from his conver-
sation that before the summer is
over that the New Era Oil and
Gas company will show up in big
letters.

. At a meeting of stockholders
of the company held in Colfax,
Washington, on April z, decision
was reached to completely re-or-
ganize under the name Of Kolfax
Petroleum company, including
240 acres Of the w. G. Baum per-
nit. This permit is located, ac-
cording to the geology Of Charles
j. Stone, on a local high" in the
west end Of the field, the compa-
ny haying received its name from
the fact that Geologist Stone To-
Gated this we'll on the 'apex" of
the fold.
The Colfax Petroleum company
is capitalized at $125, 900 with par
value Of 81 per share and $4,000
shares of preferred stock at 81
per share. The officers of the
company are ]. H. Mooney of
Colfax, president; J. G. Schwab,
Kevin, vice president and gener-
al manager; VIM F. Smith, Col
fax, secretary, and Louis Lomm-
asson of Colfax, treasurer. Di-
rectors are Ben E. Sickler, Kalis-
pell, Charles j. Stone, Butte, and
T. F. Nader Of Pullman.
Manager Schwab is a drilling
contractor who drilled the vail
dation hole on this permit. The
validation hole was abandoned
and a second hole was started
but halted when funds were ex-
hausted. Controversy followed
which resulted in the displace-
ment of the old regime. The COM
pany is now in the hands of the
stockholders who are providing
the money with which to con-
tinue operations. Mr.. Schwab
is now repairing the reservoir,
one of the largest on the west
side, and is building roadway
to the rig. The company has a
complete rig and tools.
