Pan-A merican Exposition collectors are
at work throughout the district gather­
ing material for an exhibition of the re­
sources of Oregon at the Buffalo exposit­
ion. When grain and fruit is in season
agricultural and horticultural collec­
tions will be forwarded at frequent inter­
vals but it is intended to ship the min­
eral exhibit not later than April first.
It is hoped that the citizens of Ashland
and vicinity will show an interest in this
matter and do all in their power to make
the exhibit as complete and attractive
as possible. A complete collection of
quartz and placer specimens is wanted
from any locality, samples of mineral
paints, asbestus, cinnabar, granite, lime­
stone, coal, fire-clay, pottery clays,
kaolin fossils, marble, petrifactions, and
in fact everything pretaining to the min­
eral kingdom, either in crude or mani-
factured elate also bottles of mineral
water from our numerous springs. Speci­
mens may be left at offices of G. W.

In Justice Stewart’s court at Medford
Tuesday Harvey Copeland, a youth of
14 years was bound over to appear before
the April term of circuit court charged
with the crime of malicious destruction
of personal property, District Attorney
Reames appearing for the state. This
boy was one of a gang of boys who on
Sunday afternoon lined up along the
railroad track about opposite Engineer
McCarthy’s orchard this side of Talent
and made a systematic attack upon the
windows of the coaches of the passenger
train as it was going by. The crowd of
boys rained the train with stones and
broke the windows in the day coach, a
tourist sleeper and a standard Pullman
A boy passenger in the tourist car was
struck and injured very seriously
by a stone striking him in the face.
Chief of Defectives Crowley was on
the train and immediately alighted, and
caught the boys in the act. He heard
the boy Harvey Copeland gleefuly re­
mark “I put one square In there.” Other
and older boys were more to blame than
this boy but ’ as it is hard to secure evi­
dence toconvict as evidence needed to be
established is which one actually threw
the stone that destroyed the property
A statute je needed making it a crime to
throw a stone or other missile at a car
in which there is any human beings.
It is probable that the other boys »ill
be arrested by the time court meets.
Up to the present time they seem to be
standing together.
There has been complaint of this kind
of mischief before from this section.

Greater fortunes have been made out
of oil than any other product Mother
Earth has given up. Gold, silver cop­
per, zinc, lead, platinum, iron, coal or
anyx>f the many treasures the discov­
ery of which has made poor men mil­
lionaires are second to that great com-
mod ty. oil, as fortune makers for their
producers.
To mine any of these various treas­
ures other than oil means continual ex­
pense from start to finish. The sink­
ing of shafts, running of tunnels and
drifts, pounding out of the ore with pick
and shovel, carrying to mill from there
to the smelter, and finally to the mint,
or market—a series of expenditures that
has made hundreds of thousands of
mines unprofitable to develop and cost
millions for unfortunate investors.
With oil it is quite another matter.
A drill is sent down through the earth
until the flow is Btruck, and nature does
the rest. From that time on the simple
turning of a faucet fills tbe storage tank
with a wealth far greater for each dollar
invested than any yet known. Rockfel­
ler could not have acquired his hundreds
of millians in a few years through any
other of earth’s treasures than oil. The
wealthiest and mightiest industrial or­
ganization of the world today, tlie Stand­
ard Oil Company, oould not have paid
the dividends it has through any other
product than oil—dividends that have
made hundreds of millionaires out of
men who etarted with but the clothes
they wore.
Small wonder that capital is quick to
interest itself in any newly discovered
oil fields and this accounts for the easy
manner in which the Southern Oregon
Oil Company’s stock has been taken up
by everybody the past week.
The subscription books opened Satur­
day when 5000 shares were sold. The
Ashland business men and citizens
backed up the movement far quicker
than expected and the sales at Doon to
day indicate that by the time evening
falls 15,000 shares of the 50,000 will lie
sold. The most of this is from Ashland
people and the inquiries for stock are
coming in thicker from other towne
along the line from Portland to San Fran­
cisco. The company are hastening their
plans toward putting in an oil boring
plant as the first issue of stock will un­
doubtedly be all sold sooner than at first
anticipated._____ ___
J. C. Hill and L. L. Brentner have
been quietly at work about Ashland for
the past year giving the petroleum lauds
of this section a thorough prospecting
and securing in several ways tbe lands
they decided upon as favorable to»aid
development work and prospecting
The result is that they have secured sev­
eral thousand acres. They have pur-,
chaeed outright tbe real estate they
deemed good oil land. Some of the land,
about 2000 acres, has been purchased
from the land department of the South­
ern Pacific railroad, a lot more has been
secured from the federal government by
the scrip process, and the balance
has been purchased from individuals
These gentlemen have secured in the
neighborhood of 10,000 acres and are af­
ter more.
They are interested with Mack & Co ,
one of the largest drug houses in San
Francisco, and John M. Kieth, a capital­
ist of Los Angeles, Cal. Mr. Brentner
was here all last summer and fall and is
now at Norwalk, Cal., while Mr. Hill has
been living with his wife on a part of the
Maj. Barron laud and has been industri­
ously prospecting the country for many
months, but until right recently no one
suspected that it was oil that they were
after, their mission being merely a pas­
sing curiosity to their neighbors. They
kept their secret from the public very
well, indeed.
John M. Kieth and wife arrived here
from Los Angeles last Sept. 21st, and
Adolph Mack, the San Francisco whole­
sale druggist, arrived the next day, and
were met and taken in charge by Messrs.
Hill and Brentner aud were shown the
country and properties between Ashland
and the Siskiyou mountains. L. Gug
genheim, of San Francisco, who is the
“Co.” of the wholesale drug house of
Mack & Co., arrived last October 6th aud
also took a look at their possessions.
These people make a strong team in
tbe stand point of wealth, nerve and ex­
perience in the prospecting and develop
ment of oil lands and their investments,
which already must represent an outlay
of between $40,000 and $50,000 is only
further proof that men of capital and
experience have discovered the magnifi-
cient geological prospects so abundantly
evident hereabouts for the discovery of
oil by piercing the earth. The beet of
reasons exist for the immediate develop­
ment of this one of nature’s greatest se­
cret resources, the successful unearthing
of which will open a channel of material
wealth from a source heretofore little
thought of and quite generally unexpect­
ed from this section
These people have a fine large oil well-
boring plant and complete outfit at Horn­
brook, Cal., just over the Siskiyou moun­
tain south of Ashland. It is generally
believed that their purpose was to
secure more lands before bringing
their machinery to this place, the pres­
ence of which might hinder their secur­
ing properties not yet purchased. As
they are paying cash this is quite an item
iu their plans and purposes.
