Prairie and forest fires in the

considerable property damage.
Several fire fighters have been

A dozen forest fires burned
over more than 10000 acres in

In at least eight counties in
South Dakota volunteer crews
battled prairie fires. In Camp

TO THE VOTERS OF MONROE
COUNTY.

At has come to my attention that
those opposed TO my candidacy to
the State senatorship have taken
advantage of my absence from the
city to circulate . report that /
am in favor Of county division.
My primary reason for seeking
the office OF State Senator is
stated in another part Of this
paper.
The statement that / am in
favor of county division or rear
rangement Of Monroe County's
boundaries is malicious and un-
qualified lie.
My political record shows clear
ly that / have up to the present
time, never had any political in
terest other than In Monroe Coun-
ty. I now naturally have a poll
tical interest in the four counties
embracing the Gath district, but
none other.
1t is well known fact that dur
ing the 1923 session Of the legis-
lature (of which | was not MEM
berl Lee County was divided into
three counties, creating the coun-
ties Of Collier and Hendry. and If
my opponent il elected, that his
tory may repeat itself in the form
Of additions to sadjoining counties
at the expense Of Monroe County's
Cape Sable Country.
I am unaiterabIy and unquaii-
fiedly opposed to any division Of or
rearrangement Of Monroe County's
present boundaries and pledge
myself, if elected, to work ac-
cordingly.
As matter of information to
my friends, my Monroe County
and Key West city property in
terests aggregate approximately
three times the value of all of my
combined properties In any other
county or any part of the world.
Your support il solicited.

MYSTERY SHROUDS
11OIL FIELD AT
ALLENTOWN, FLA.
REPORTED DISCOVERY OF
PETROLEUM NEAR oKEE-

Fsr-
OF VISITORS
fFort Pierce News-Tribune)

- fort Pierce News-Tribune)
Considerable mystery surrounds
the "oiI field" which has been dis
covered at Allentown, near 0kee-
chobee, according to Fort Pierce
residents who have visited the
place within the past week.
There are five oil rigs on
the "field,p which is some IA
miles from Okeechobee in an al
most inaccessible part Of the coun-
try. One of these rigs is pumping
oil, It is said. Those at the pump
say the output is between five
and six barrels every "a hours.
Nothing can be learned at the
field" about the ownership of
the rigs, about who is paying for
their operation, or who is backing
the whole project.
A Fort Pierce man who was in
the Oklahoma oil regions for a
number of years, found a repre-
sentative Of the Gulf companya
man with whom he is personally
acqusinted--was on the scene a
few days ago.
This man, would say nothing
about his connection or lack Of it
win the project, however. Neither
would he voice any opinion as to
whether there is oil in the "field."
There are none of the usual
signs Of "oil booms" evident either
Ii Okeeehobee or in Allentown,
Il IS laid. There is no talk Of "oil
stock" sales or Of real estate sales
on the strength of the reported
OIL wells. In fact all sellers of
real estate are said to be retain
ibg the mineral rights.
Visitors from many sections Of
the state crowded three main
roads into 0keechobee Sunday, it
isesaid. Visitors were not allow
ed near the producing well,
however, which is surrounded by
armed guards.
