Kkluhoma, or any olhor oil produc
ing sections of the world, I will tell
you," said tho Judge, "that locul citi
zens would never rest until they had
been given a sine and Intelligent tost.
Nature put oil In Jackson county, and
left its traces on the surface. I would
not waste my time fiddling with
something: I thought was unworthy."
"The best sign that tho local con
ditions will amount to something,"
the judge said, "Is that high-brow
exports have condemned it.- The
Burkburnett district In Texas was
examined by highbrows, and n decis
ion reached that It would never
amount to anything. Tho next day
oil was struck, and n man by the
name of Fowler guve $250,000 to the
Baptist church."
Judge Kelly described Burkburnett
as "a wide pluco in the road before
oil was discovered," and Wichita
Falls as "not qulto as respectable as
Tolo." ' Ho reviewed tho prosperity
that had como to those cities as a
result of the oil development.
Ho said that ho honestly and con
cieutlously believed there wns oil In
the Rogue River vulley. . "Wildcnt
ting is a pretty serious business;
Christopher Columbus was the first
wildcatter, and you all know he came
near being heaved overboard. There
a some people here who want to

the judge concluded amid laughter.
