WELLS SUNK NEAR VALE Companies at Work Find Indications at Depth of About 9000 Feet of Heavy OH or Paraffin Va riety, It Is Asserted. VALE. Or.. Aug. 9. (Special.) The oil field of Eastern Oregon haa attracted th Standard OH Company because It Is believed that not only la the field productive of oil. but has every lndl cation of being one of th greatest tha has ever been located In the West and may, when properly developed, rival the oil fields of Texas snd California. It Is asserted here that experts who have examined the -field for tha Stan dard OH Company" recommend active operatlona. It Is known that repre sentatlves of the company have been quietly purchasing so-called oil lands. Th first expert of tha Standard Oil Company to go Into the Eastern Ore gon field cam from San Franclsoo and was a geologist of some note. He re mained two weeks but returned a month later and Inspected the field for a month. He Is said to have gone away satisfied that a real oil field as yet undeveloped exists In this section of the country. Two experts made sn examination of the field last year and but recently another expert made an Inspection. Government Is Busy. Ths Government also has been busy In this connection and has sent Its ex perts Into the same field with the view or playing its conservation policy in the withdrawal of the oil lands. In fact In what Is known as the South Vale field the Government some time ago withdrew 110 sections of the land from all forma of entry. The oil and gaa companies thst were operating In this field are permitted to continue their operation of leased oil lands so long as they .actively engage In oil or gaa development work. Should they stop operations, however, their leased lands will be cancelled and re vert back to the Government. Development work la going on In the Eastern Oregon fields. The Malheur Oil A Gas Company, whose holdings are south of Vale In Sand Hollow, has Its well down 1210 feet. The under- reaming of tha well Is down 2200 feet, being driven through solid shale formation practically th entire dis tance. Thla drill haa penetrated 10 feet of oil aand carrying a heavy dark oil of the paraffin variety and aald to be high grade. Th casing Is to be driven to the bottom of tha well, when drilling will be stopped, the water pumped out and oil drawn from tha .ndp In commercial quantities. Californlans Take Hold. The Isl Oil & Gas Company, whose holdings are eight miles north of Vale, has Its machinery Installed prepara tory to commence active operations. The company la composed of California oil men. who worked the California fields with profit. Their outfit lnclud Ing derrick, etc.. cost $25,000. The Eastern Oil Gas Company haa a well down 1100 feet in a field 10 miles south of Vale and expects to strike the valuable crude fluid In paying quanti ties before a depth ot 2000 feet la reached. Another derrick has been erected In th same field by Salem. Or., men. WAGER AGAINST PAINTING Artist Bets 1200 That Webster Isn't Freehand Painter, Departing from hla original contention that the miniatures painted by Freder ick Webster, of Chicago, are produced by tracing over photographs. Reginald Harrison, of Portland, now aeeks to at tack the Chicago man on the ground that hla work la not technically "free hand" painting. He addressed a letter yesterday to E. C. Meara, of this city, for whom Mr. Webster recently painted three minia tures to tha satisfaction of Mr. Meara and to the aatlefactton of Portland art patrons who viewed them at a public exhibit Tuesday evening, offering to wager $200 that the Chicago artist's work la not "free-hand" painting. Mr. Meara says he has known from the start that Mr. Webster'a art la not strictly "free-hand" work, as he first tracea the outline or tne picture ne in tend to paint on th Ivory. Th letter Mr. Mears received from Mr. Harri son Is: There appeared In thla morning's Ore- gontan a statement purporting to com from you. to tne errect tnat a great injustice naa been done Mr. Webster by reason of ray statements to the effect that the miniatures f Mrs. Mears and br two daughtera. ex hibited to me aa bavins been painted by Mr. Webster, were not gnu!ne freehand painted miniature. The article contains the further statement, purporting to come from you. that "before be make any tate- menta of this kind, anywnere else ne naa better be eure of his proof or ke.p still." That this subject may be determined once and for all. and an opportunity be fur nished for establishing the truth or falatty of my comment upon Mr. Webster's min iature. I hereby offer to submit It to the decision of the American Association of Min iature Painters, the leading American au- horlty on painting of thla kind, or to any other recognised authority on the painting of miniature lehom you may select. A a suarantee of my rood faith In this connection I have thla day deposited 200 with Colonel C. E. 8. Wood, with Instruc tions to deliver the same to you In case It I decided by any of th authorities above mentioned that the miniatures In question are actually freehand painted miniatures. be only other condition wnirn 1 nave at aehed to the delivery of this check under such circumstance -being that you will, yourself, deposit a Ilk sum with Colonel Wood, to be delivered to me tn case my position with regard to the miniatures Is suatained by th decision of the authority to wblch thla aubiect la aubmltled.
