PRODUCING wells IN keV1n-Sun-
burst field are today making
more oil than they did in flush
production and the prospects are
that the production during this
week will be greater than the
week past.
The winter shutdown did not
harm the wells in the northern
field.
There was no evident water in
vasion. Wells which had been
making some water last fall are
today making no more water
than they did last fall.
The daily runs of the past
week have averaged in excess of
| $500 barrels a day from half
the completed wells in the field.
These facts are outstanding fol-
lowing the resumption of pumping
April /. The field had been shut
down since October 20, 1923. None
of the major companies had run
any oil since that date. There was
some doubt what would be found
when the wells were opened up.
Some feared water invasion.
Others feared lack of pressure. In
other fields, wells have been open
ed up after a long shutdown and
found to be dead, operators state,
and they feared the loss of wells in
this field. The converse was found
to be true in Kelvin Sunburst.
The Montana Oil Journal secur-
ed statements Friday from various
men familiar with the field. F. c..
Plat, field scout and manager of
the Northern Oil Information bu-
reau, who visited practically every
we'll in the field during the past
week, wired:
"Shut down has not affected any
of the wells in the field as far as
can be determined to date. Baker

Back to 1864

Records of the state supreme court
go back as far as 1864 when there
were approximately a dozen mem
bers of the bar. John H. Shober of
Helena, who was admitted in 1868,
is believed by many to be the Oldest
living lawyer in point of years.

Our Special Offering to First Subscribers

Now go back to well No. / of the Regal. We only want
to sell $4,000 worth of stock with which to drill the first
well. With every share of this first offering goes a option
for an additional share at the first offering price of 10
cents, exercisabIe within 80 days after oil is struck in the
first we'll. What happens then? The stock should double
or treble in value. And you, lucky buyer of the first offer
ing, take u your option at 10 cents, when the stock is
worth several times what you have to pay for it. And when
you do this the second well is financed.
Best Bet Ever Offered to the Public
Bear this in mind. Here is what we consider the choicest
80 acres in the Kevin-Sunburst field, with production on
four sides of it, being capitalized at the modest sum of
100000. Looks like a pretty good place to lay a bet, does
it not? Now is the time to do it. We only want $4,000
and that ought to go quickly. Fill out this coupon and
you are riding with us.

Handsome Profits If We Strike Oil

WELL, then, say we strike oil. Let us figure con-
w servatively; put the production at only 100
barrels, a small well for this district. Say oil
goes to So a barrel. That means $500 a day. 100
days is $2O,OO0; 800 days 100000. The capitaIi-
cation of our Company, lease value considered, is
very small, 100000 10-cent shares-totaI$ $50, 900.
Under these circumstances Regal production from one well
alone would be annually as much gross as the par value of
the stock issue. What happens to a stock that produces as
much in cash in 800 days a s its par value represents?
Then we go right on drilling. We have room for Is
wells. Say we break even, $3.50, in dry holes and producers,
q ridieuiously conservative estimate; The record of the
district is seven producers to one dry hole. Nine wells, each
producing 100 barrels a day-S1, 800 a day; in 100 days,
S18O,O0O; in 200 DAYS S360.OO0: in 300 days, $540000. 1t is
a gamble. of course. but a bully one, and Just such a pyra-
miding has occurred time and time again in the history of
the marvellous petroleum development of the United States.

Should La Toilette, as seems not

To achieve this balance of

public affairs through the next two
years, intensive organization and

REPUBLICAN SUCCESS
Confidential Report Indicates
Plan is to Capture Control of
Next Congress
BY HARRY B. HUNT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-An
'inside" glimpse of the Republican
state of mind with respect to the
results of the November election is
contained in a confidential sum
mary just sent out by Washington
observers to business interests
throughout the country.
This report, made by men who
are habitually conservative in their
conclusions, frankly states:
"The La Toilette movement is
considered, at this time, as more
of menace to full Republican sue
cess than is the Democratic party.
1.-The La Toilette strength has
been moderated. This strength is
not considered Of such a nature as
to affect seriously the likelihood of
Coolidge's election, but it is of far
reaching Importance in connection
with the control of Congress"
In a nutshell, the confidence Of
the Republican organization ex-
tends only to the reelection of Coo
lidge as president. Reports from
many sources have inspired the feel
ing that Coolidge's New England
conscience" has made him strong
er than his party" There is Z
growing belief that "Cal can take
care of himself"
But this confidence does not ex
tend to Coolidge's ability to pull {

him.

Last Tues day he told the people of Springfield, Illinois: If when four years have elapsed, aye, if when two years have gone, and we have been as false to our promises as other men have been, if cor ruption again has raised it's ugly head and thrown itself into the conduct of your government, if privilege has not been wiped off the statute books and the laws that control you, I shall not only not invoke your further suffrage, but shall commend it to you as American citizens to repeat your vote of protest and condemnation" That is the way an honest man would feel about it. If he could not redeem his pledges and carry out his promises he would regard it as his duty to step aside for some one who could. But that is the sort of man who

LAFoLLETTE BANKS ON THE WEST.

The LaFollette decision to confine the active campaigning to the agricultural states of the West is significant. Lack of funds compelled curtailment of the travelling schedules, but it is evident that the main intention of the third party is to corral a sufficient number of states to block the Republican success The most likely territory for such a program is in the West where the political partisanship is not so strong as elsewhere. There is always the chance that the result will be such a Republican split as will throw the electoral votes to the Democrats. That is not the kaFollette purpose, but is pre- ferred to Republican victory. Repub- lican success means a LaFollette defeat, whereas a Democratic success may be interpreted by the third party leaders as a Republican defeat at the hands of the third party. LaFollette would like to throw the election into congress, but he would not regard his effort as intellectual if it resulted merely in preventing the Re publicans from retaining power. He would at least have demonstrated that he was leader with whom the Republic ans, for their own political prestige, had done better to deal with frankly.

MAKING THE FRONT PAGE.

Nothing could more graphically illus trate the success of the fight against yellow fever than the fact that a single case in Houston, Texas, was regarded as of first-page importance by Sunday news papers. A Mexican landed in New Or leans, Sept. 28, and was sent to hospi- tai in Houston, Oct. 2, dying the next day.
 Science has achieved this result of al- most complete extinction of yellow fever. Science is working in similar manner, but more slowly, against other diseases. Eventually a case of malaria, hookwor'n,
