ToBore or Not That Is the Question
The committeo which was appointed
at a recent infonrial meeting of tho citi
zens of Cambridge for tho purpose of
considering the advisability of prospect
ing for gas and oil and for the purpose of
formulating some plan and offering sug
gestions as to tho best method to pro
ceed in prospecting for gas and oil held
a meeting last Monday evening Decem
ber 28th and agreed to submit tho fol
lowing report
It is recommended that in so much
as the department of our government
haviug in charge the geological survey
has suggested that there are formations
in the earths crust in this portion of
our state which are favorable to the col
lection of gas and oil deposits such sug
gestions should not be permitted to pass
unnoticed Rich nelds of gas and oil
have been discovered in- localities where
surface indications wero no more favor
able than they are in this portion of Ne
braska In nearly every locality on the
earths surface valuable deposits of some
character have been found but they
have seldom been discovered except
after careful exploration and investiga
tion
The government report referred to has
created a sentiment which is quite uni
versal in this community in favor of
making some concerted effort to deter
mine what if anjthing of value is
within tho reach of modern appliances
beneath our soil
Abundant harvests have supplied
the means which are needed to make
such explorations and without which
they cannot be made A trifling con
tribution from those who have been fav
ored by the blessings of the rain the
sunshine and the soil during tho past
season will enable us to determine to a
reasonable certainty what those ele
ments have secreted in the bosom of tho
earth during the unnumbered ages of
the past
With a desire already created with
the means for gratifying that desire
within easy reach and with the encour
agement of scientific research to urge us
on we feel assured that our people will
not lack the necessary enterprise to do
what reason and judgmentdictale should
be done
The test should be a thorough
one and should extend over consider
able territory the more comprehensive
the better so that when completed those
engaged in making it can feel satisfied
with the result though it be nothing
more than to set at rest the problem of
subterraneous deposits
Several wells should oe sunk in a
line east and west so that if there is an
anti cline as suggested by tho govern
ment survey it will be sure to be cross
ed
The expense of sinking several wells
will not be as great per well as the sink
ing one alone would be
The chances of success will be mul
tiplied by each additional well that is
put down and should a product of value
be discovered in any one of the wells the
project will be a profitable one
In view of these facts this committee
submits for consideration the following
plan of operation
1 That a company be organized for
the purpose of drilling test wells along
the Republican Valley or near thereto
from Arapahoe to McCook Neb in the
event the people of the cities and villages
and the rural communities along the
valley are disposed to assist in such an
enterprise
2 That the directory of such com
pany be composed of leading and well
known citizens selected from each com
munity along said valley or territory
tributary to tho cities and villages
thereof
3 That the stock of such company
shall be issued in shares of 1 each that
it may be within the reach of all That
such stock shall be sold for actual cost
and that none of it be given away for
promotion purposes and the manage
ment and control of the company be re
tained by the purchasers of stock for
value
4 That a well be put down at each
city or along said valley or in territory
tributary to the same upon which shall
be expended at least the amount of
money which shall be secured from the
sale of stock in such community
5 That a fund of at least 2500 be
raised if possible to be expended upon
each well
6 That the company shall either
purchase machinery and hire competent
men to operate the same or contract
with some one who has had ample ex
perience in drilling oil wells to do the
work furnishing its own appliances
7 That public meetings be called
for the purpose of discussing this project
and perfecting an organization in the
immediate future

Dewey Wants to Sell Out
Topeka Kan Jan 5 Special All
the land agents in northwestern Kansas
have been commissioned by CPDewey
the Chicago millionaire who owns Oak
ranch in Rawlins Cheyenne and Sher
man counties to sell his property This
marks the end of the bitter range war
which has been waged between the set
tlers and the cattlemen of the northwest
ern part of the state It was generally
believed that the Deweys would continue
the war after the case against Chauncey
Dewey the son of the owner of the
property for the alleged murder of three
members of the Berry family last June
should be settled by the courts
Tho ranch is one of the largest in the
state It is believed that the Deweys
can dispose of their holding at a profit
as the greater part of the land was pur
chased at a time when the settlors were
despondent over poor crops
The Deweys have said nothing about
their plans for the future but it is un
derstood that they will not leave the
state and will continue in the cattle busi
ness

Above we present our readers with a
small picture of tho new St Patricks
Catholic church now finished furnish
ed and occupied by the congregation
the first service being held in the edifice
on Uhnstmas morning It is expected
that the formal dedication of tho church
will occur in the spring
Our readers will recall the fateful
morning of Sunday March 1st 1903
when the old St Patricks was totally
destroyed by fire Nothing daunted
however in less than ten months tho
congregation has replaced the one burned
down with a fine substantial brick
structure at once an ornament to this
city and the excusable pride of the con
gregation
An English Gothic from tho point
view of art it is perfect in its solid sim
plicity
As to its appointments nnd furnish
ings they are the latest most approved
and up-to-date
The Midland Glass and Paint Co of
Omaha furnished the art windows
They are works of art in fact and are
said to be tho prettiest in tho Lincoln
diocese The League of the Sacred
Heart donated the large front window
which contains a full length figure of
Christ exposing His heart an emblem
of love
The church is illuminated by electri
city the globes being placed in the
ceiling Twenty five candle power Meri
dian white frosted lamps are used giv
ing a soft mellow and beautiful effect
A modern pattern hot air furnace
provides the necessary warmth
Tho Brulmaier Co of Dubuque la
made the pews and altar The altar is
a superb and impressive Gothic effect in
butternut wood and gold
The architecs have not overlooked
the acoustic properties they are quite
perfect a Conversational tone being
audible distinctly in every part of the
church
An excellent and praiseworthy feature
of the construction is the inclined floor
an essential in the modern audience
room
In summing up the excellencies of the
building one who has been over the dio
cese and seen every church therein
states This is the prettiest best-appointed
best finished and most up-to-date
church in Lincoln diocese Hence
the Catholic people and their kind
neighbors of McCook may well feel
proud of this new house of worship
The members of the building commit
tee Messrs J HBennett C J OBrien
P F McKenna James McAdams and
George Elbert deserve large credit and
unstinted praise for their faithful and
efficient efforts They bought the ma
terials and hired the day labor for the
construction
The architecs were Fisher Lawrio of
Omaha James McAdams one of the
building committee was general super
intendent of construction and purchas
ing James Rupp of Hastings was
foreman of the brick masons George
Younger of Box Elder was foreman of
the wood workers George Elbert of the
committee was foreman of the painters
and J H Yarger foreman of plasterers
Rev J J Loughran the pastor feels
especially grateful to the non members
for generous donations toward the build
ing of the new church And in this
connection it may be interesting to state
that the building is minus that usual
feature the mortgage
The bell damaged by fire will be re
cast next summer and placed in the
tower with appropriate ceremonial
And finally next summer it is ex
pected that a new pipe organ will be
purchased and placed in the organ loft
of the church thus fully and perfectly
equipping the church for its sacred work
The seating capacity of the church is
about 500 Its final cost will be in the
neighborhood of 10000
