The c uumittee appointed by the meeting of last week are still at work on the project. The large plant has uol been abandoned. The proposition of th-company is better understood than it was at lirst. Orouud for the factory is wauted. Lights, say 17 aixhsen candle power buiba to te light'sl for a few hours each day. The company will have its own well of water, but incase of ail emergency it wants the privilege of using city water for a term of three years. This emergency might not exist for but a few hours at a time ami yet in a period of a drouth it might be for a month. lr. Tamelsie has further option of returning bis plant at the end of eighteen mouths in payment of a large plant at 10 per cent less than its cost price. St if at thu end of eighteen mouths, interested par- ties in llillsboio wauted a factory here Dr. Tameisie could tat induced to negotiate for a large plant, but without doubt Iu would want to be made whole for the 10 per cent ilis count which Hillsboro would have to lake up as an additioual subsidy burden.

Hut the wort tiling is the breaking of the 4-inch drill htem. This was broken three limes and as no larger stem is to be had here, the superin tendent decided to stop work and send l 'a-t for a larger piece of steel of which to make a stem. None ol the people about the well were able to certainly name the hard rock struck. It resists ui Ids and comes hack to unchanged sand when sub jected to a ItiOO degre.i heat generat ed by an oxy-hydrogen blowpipe. The well is ten iucln's in diameter at the 7.rj0 find level where work was suspended and is in excellent shape for going leccr. What is under that hard rock? No one knows. Home think oil while others cannot see favorable indications. A' num ber of wells in ditrerent parts of the state were started this year, but ho far nothing has lieen found to en courage the pro-pector. It is possi ble that there is no oil in Oregon.
