Report reached the city Monday
that the steamboat recently purchased
by Van Arsdale and associates at
Bandpolnt to be placed in service on
the upper Snake river would reach
here today from Rlparla, says the

to Rlparla and Mr. Van Arsdale has
employed an experienced steamboat
man to bring the craft here.
Mr. Van Arsdale is the owner of
the little steamer Wilhelmlna. which
he built here several months ago. The
power equipment of the craft was In
adequate and he has arranged to In
stall larger engines. He plans also
to add a third boat and has organised
a company to handle the fleet of
steamers.
There have been repeated rumors
that Mr. Van Arsdale is associated
irlth one of the large railroad com
panies, but he states he Is operating
independently. Report in circulation
Monday was to the effect that his
company is receiving encouragement
from owners of cement and coal prop
erties in the Snake river section.

that Intent Mr. Carter went out to the
Splawn ranch In the Cowiche this
morning to confer with the rancher!

for the exploitation for oil and gas
in this near vicinity will be com

The company will bore four -wells
through the shale, and there Is no
question but that natural gas will be
found, and It Is more than an even

that this section, when developed, will
be one of the largest oil fields In the
United States.
