Texas-PacifiC Firm Buys
Control of Homestake-Ex

Subject to confirmation by its
board of directors, the Texas
Pacific Oil & Coal company has
purchased control of the Home
stake Exploration company by
taking over the quarter interest
now owned by the parent Home
stake Oil company. The deal was
concluded here Thursday morn
ing after several days of negotia-
,tions between local Homestake
representatives and E. j. Mars
ton, vice president of the Texas
Pacific.
Mr.. Marston now is enroute to
Fort Worth, Tex, headquarters
of the Texas-Pacific. and the
matter is expected to be finally
concluded within the next week.
Mr.. Marston's company has own
ed half interest in the Home
stake Exploration company since
It's organization and with the
purchase now under considera-
tion the Texas-Pacific will hold
three-quarters interest in the in
stutition. The other onefourth
interest is held by Frank Book,
one of the proprietors of the new
Book-Cadillac ho tel, Detroit, |
The Homestake Exploration
company's interests lie principal
" in the Kevin field and embrace
/ considerable acreage in the
1eart Of the main producing area.
It's production now approximates
1880 barrels a day, of which ! ],
100 barrels is from the new
Iomestake-State No. 2. The
ringing in Of this we'll is report
ID to have been an important
actor in launching the negotia-
ions through which the Texas
'acifc takes over control.
The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1925-12-17

The purchase of the quarter
interest, is said to have bene
made on the basis of a 81, 1,250, 900
valuation on the Homestake Ex-
ploration's property. This includ-
/ es the acreage in northern Mont
ana, drilling equipment and other
incidentals. On this valuation,
the retiring company receives
something in excess of 100000
for its one-fourth interest.
The Texas-Pacific is one Of the
larger Independent oil operating
concerns in the country and is
affiliated indirectly with some of
the larger financial interests in
New York. 1t is understood here
that in taking over control of the
Homestake Exploration, the Tex
as-Pacific plans to Immediately
launch an extensive development
campaign and to make a very
substantial capital investment in
so doing.
Comment which followed To-
cally in the wake of the negota
tions just closed is that the Tex
as-Pacifc contemplates building
a large reinry in the Kevin field |
and entering that department of |
the oil industry here on a large
scale. No confirmation was OBJ
5ained of this report.
The deal between the Texas
Pacific and the Homestake Ex-
company does not af-
'ect the parent Homestake Oil

DAKOTA LOOMS
AS OUTLET FOR
SURPLUS CRUDE

Minot. The Montana oil fields
will in the near future have suf-
ficient production so that the
surplus can be supplied to North
Dakota consumers, in the belief
of Henry M. Wilson of Minot.
president of the international
Oil company, who has returned
from Great Falls, where he at
tended the recent convention of
the Montana chapter Of t h e
Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas as
sociation.
1T will not be many months
before Montana oil producers will
be looking for an outside mar
ket," Mr.. Wilson stated. In
1928, 36 per cent Of the gasoline
used in Montana was produced
in that state. On November ].
1925, the state was supplying 81
per cent of the gasoline used
within its own borders. Twelve
gallons of gasoline were
into Montana this year
and 100000 gallons were shipp-
ed out. A large amount of this
4, 100000 gallons would be avail
able for use in North Dakota.
"The Kevin field at present is
producing about $4,000 barrels of
!. day and it is predicted that
before the'end Of the year The |
field will have a daily production
If 10000 barrels. /"

NEW DRUG STORE

Vice. president Kitchen of the

moving a large building up from
Dunkirk this week and has plac-
ed it on the corner.lot north Of
Montana Cafe. The building is
now being repaired, and it is
stated that Harry Shanklin Of
Browning will open up a first

moved part of his equipment
here and it is understood that he
will open up his place of business

good move, and we pre-
lict that an establishment of this
kind here will without a doubt
make good.

kelvin OIL PRICE
CUT SEEN AS MOVE
TO REDUCE OUTPUT

Shelby. The recent reduction
of 20 cents a barrel in the price
of crude oil was mainly due to
the fact the Kevin field is pro-
ducing too much oil and that an
effort is being made to curtail
production, according to the
Northern Oil Information bureau
Tuesday.
At the time the price was cut
there were some 100000 barrels
of oil in storage at Sunburst,
nearly all Of which was owned
by independent refneries, it is
pointed out.
The Illinois Pipeline company,
in an effort to meet the demand
for more storage facilities, i S
one 80,0OO-barrel and
one 81, 500O-barrel tank. In ad-
dition it has taken over all Of
the Ohio Oil company's tanks at
the tank farm at Sunburst and
have purchased a $4,000 barrel
tank from the Continental Oil
company. When the two new
tanks are completed the company
will have a total storage Of 406,-
300 barrels which, it is believed,
will be sufficient to care for nor
nal demands during the winter.

REGISTER NOW
FOR ELECTION
JANUARY 26
Kelvin Citizens Will Have Oppor-
tunity to Cast Vote For or
Against Incorporation

On another page of this issue
will be found the notice calling
for an election to be held on the
26th day of January, 1926, to de-
termine if the town of Kevin
shall be Incorporated. This move
has been under way for some
time, and it is thought by this
purpose being achieved that it
will be the means of inducing
several business concerns that is
badly needed locating in our fair
city.
In sending in the notices,
County Clerk and Recorder. ].
H. MacFarlane requests that it
will be necessary for those who
have not already done so, to reg
lister at once. You may register
at the office of Justice Of the
Peace, Furber, or before any not
ary public.
This election to be held on the
26th Of January, will only deter
mine if the town of Kevin shall
become Incorporated, but the
officers will not be elected until
the coming April primaries. We
hope that all the Kevin citizens
will take interest in this matter
and register at once.

Meeting Kos He'd Last
Tuesday

Railroad Commissioners, Ross,
Boyle and Young were in Kevin
Tuesday to sit as a board in the
hearing Of rates now being char
ged by Kelvin Washington Oil &
Gas company. Attorney Clinton
represented the Gas company,
and practically the only witness
called was manager Nicholson.
The Board questioned Nichol-
sen at length in regard to con-
servation Of gas and ordered that
meters and regulators were to be
installed. the Gas company to
furnish the meters and installa-
tion. The question was asked
Nicholson what rate would be
and he stated that he
would ask the Commissioners to
give as cheap a rate as possible,
yet giving the Gas company a
fair return on their investment.
at this point Nicholson asked the
Commission should another Gas
come into Kevin, what
would be the results as to rates,
,he Commission replied that it
would result in increase in rates
IS both companies would be en-
titled to make a fair return on
heir investment.
The commission made it plain
It this point that the Gas compa-
" had nothing themselves, 10
ay what rate would be charged,
S the rates are based upoc the
Investment and the number Of
only.
The Commission ordered Mr..
to have his head off q
ompile a report showing the
ost Of equipment. overhead ex-
enses, revenues, etc.
Nicholson told the Board that
e would guarantee his custom
RS that sufficient gas was avail
bic, and produced a telegram
rom J. M. Cunning, president
f the company, that should their
resent wells fall down that an
Iher well would be drilled i'm
lediately.
Mr.. O'Donnell of Billings, rep
ssenting the Great Northern
ool & Supply company was
resent and slated that the
,ices charged by the Nicholson
,mpany were satisfactory to
S company and stated that he
'uld see no reason why they
iould discontinue his service
st so long as sufficient gas
uld be supplied.
With the exception of a few
ore questions asked by several
nsumers as to what rates would
ntinue, and the Commissioners
king if a Master regulator had
en- installed, and all leaks had
en- taken care of, constituted

also is interested in the new deal.
The Rice and Fulton leases are
now producing more than 5000
barrels each. With large storage
tanks at both the refinery and
field and a 5000 barrel capacity

various firms will be able to
handle the crude and refined
materials without shutdowns due
