as suggested by the REPUDLICAN ,
is beginning to take shape. Ner

t1 e opinion t1 at either artesian
water , coal , 011 or salt can be se-
cUred. If the quantity is sutl ci-
en t to pay for developing , his
object is to form a company for
that purpose. He has the encouragement -
couragement of parties in the
city who arc interested in oil
wcl1s in the east who wi11 contribute -
bute to the enterprise.
