That OIL and natural GAS have been discovered in paying quantities across the Columbia River from Astoria at Onieda,
Washington, (has been , important enough to a number of well-known reliable parties to cause the organization of the Pacific

at the low price of $50M per shared READ ON-

Wm. Anderson, Deep River, Wash.
THIS famous oil property is located on the north bank of the Columbia River directly opposite Astoria,
and right at the mouth of Deep River, at Onieda, Washington. The derrick machinery andj drilling
apparatus is on the ground at work daily, and open to the inspection of the public. Mr. John D. Magner
and Fred E. Carl, two of the most competent oil and gas drillers in the country are in charge 01 tne work.
Go and see them drill in the ground. The location of the plant is right on John Nelson's place at Onieda
where he has farmed for the past 26 years. He has been using this gas for the past 6 years that this
company is now digging" down for a plentiful supply. The gas is thee because it has been put to practi
cal heating and illuminating tests without a break. We want you to see the plant in operation. Look
over the exceptional facilities for handling the product, and then form your opinion of those who own
stock rn the company. Take the steamer Julia B.or the Gen'l Washington any morning from Astoria and
spend an hour at the plant and see it work. You can return in the morning or afternoon of the same day.
This visit will prove a revelation. There is nothing like it in the northwest. This drilling outfit is the
biggest and most up to date ever operated on the Pacific coast.

The per value of the stock is $100
per share, but is now offered at one
half ($50) and it is worth it The
company has already sold a limited
amount of stock, equipped the prop

in the world and it has plans for a
great future. The money secured
from the Sale of stock will be to push
the worlc Every dolar will be used
to prepare for the best interest of the
company As the drill goes down the

ticularly at $50 per share. Don't wait
until it goes to par, but buy now. It

the convention had completed its
