It Iihh alroudy reached mich a Htage that four companies aro in the fild wifh development plans and wildcatters have staked (Ait everything in the county that even resembles oil ground and much that does not. It has just been discovered that even the top of itoxy Anne has been staked out in oil claims by eight men, and later returns may show that the icy summit of Ml. Pitt baa been gobbled up by oil zealots who scorn to bo overlooking nothing. Henry Callahan, the well known mining man of Medford, the other day met two men from .Saskatchewan, Can., who had Just returned from a hike to the top of Itoxy Anne, and thoy in formed him that they were surprised ! to find that tho top of the mountain ; had all been staked (tit in oil claims j by eight men. The Identity of the I eight has not yet been learned, . A. It. iNorris, tho head driller of the Trigonia company arrived in tho city last night from San Jose, Calif., and will spend today and tomorrow Jut the well site to see that the finish ling touches are made to tho prepara tions for drilling. .lr. Norris who had had years t.i : experience in successful oil drilling in tho various fields and Is of u quiet, conservative temperament, said this noon that he Is very favorably Im pressed with the site chosen and the vicinity around the first well. "The top formation of the land and other surroundings of this tract all indicate that oil is beneath," he said. "A better sp(4, according to human calculations, based on past ex perience, could not have been chosen. I regard tho Trigonia company tract and site as a very good gamble." SAW TROOPS STORM HALL.
