TWENTY SECOND YEAR
End of a Long War
Tho currant issue of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers Journal 6iiys
It will bo gratifying to our member
ship to know that afler a somewhat pio
longed interview botween W S Stono
graud chief engineer nud F A Delano
general manager relative to tho situa
tion on tho Burlington as men joining
tho brotherhood that tho following
ground was reached
That from this time on there shall bo
no discrimination in any form against
men who join tho brotherhood but they
shall be left entirely fiec to join or not
as thoy may elect While on our part
wo aro not to seek by force to compel
engineers to becomo members or to up
hold those who do becomo members in
vicious or careless work or in becoming
agitators or in deviating in any manner
from the work that ought to bo done by
faithful and consistent employees of the
company and every 0110 who joins must
stand or fall strictly upon his own mer
its as a man as members of the order
must elsewhere As part of the agree
ment tho Burlington relief association
is not to bo antagonized
This is a fair and business liko propo
sition and one that if faithfully lived up
to will effectually end the long struggle
on tho Burlington and wo certainly owe
it to ourselves to seo that our part of
tho agreement is strictly adhered to

Oil and Gas In the Great Plains
Is tho central great plains region Uudorlain
with oil nnd gas7
There aro geologic indications that conditions
within nn area 27 miles in length varying in
width from 2 to G miles nnd comprising within
tho three states Kansas Nohrubkn and South
Dakota are similar to those in which oil and
gas have been found
In investigating the geologic structure of tho
central plains region Mr N II Dnrton of tho
United States Geological Survey has discovered
an uplift or arch in tho earths crust which
may prove of greatest economic importance
Owing to thick covering of clajs and sands in
tho plains tho structure of the underlying rocks
isdiilicult toasccrtuin but from a careful sur
vey of exposures in western Kansas tho Repub
lican valloy in Nebraska and tho southwestern
corner of South Dakota and the consideration
of much now evidence there by well borings in
the last few years Mr Darton has demonstrat
ed tho existence of a narrow arch or saddle
buck of considerable mngnitudo extending
from tho vicinity of Lonora Kansas through
Norton county across Furnas Frontior Lin
coln aud other counties in Nebraska nnd the
Whito river whore this river crosses tho Ne
braska and South Dakota line Tho uplift is
probably due to tho slight shrinkage of tho
earths crust and tho extensive series of cretace
ous and underlying rocks hero involved
The investigations of tho bureau in the great
Appalachian oil fieldcovoring tho operations of
many jears have placed tho anticliuical theory
of tho accumulations of oil and gas on n
substantial basis While such accumulations
havo been found in syuclincs notably
liko that at Florence Colorado tho prac
tical developments in areas of anticlines or
uplifts have resulted in vastextension of known
Holds and the application of the theory has
been followed by numerous discoveries of other
productivo territory Should future develop
ments in the central great plains area prove tho
soundness of the nnticlinical theory it would
result in incalcuablc benefit to that region
Tho country in which tho anticline puts out is
today thinly populated and for the most part
given over to stock grazing It lies just west of
the 100th meridian and is probably classed as
belonging to the arid region With the discov
ery of oil and gas a great impetus would bo
given to agricultural development as tho soil is
fertile of great depth and as productivo as that
of any section of the country when irrigated
Tho surface waters are inaquedato aud uncer
tain and for this reason this section has not
developed with tho samo rapidity as others
more favored with perennial streams A great
part of tho great plains region is known to be
underlain with water bearing gravels ut no
great depth from tho surfneo which when
by wells furnish an inexhaustible water
supply By utilizing the clieap fuel which
would bo provided in tho event of discovering I
oil and gas vast areas of this region could be
irrigated from waters obtained by pumping
plants Mr Dartons discovery will undoubted
ly attract the attention of those who are seek
ing oil and gas in parts of the United States
A report now in preparation on the geology of
of the great plainsby Mr Dartonwhich is to be
issued from the geological survey in tho courso
of a fow months will be of great interest and
valuo to those who are desirous of more know
ledge concerning the geological structure and
resources of that region
