Josey, the speaker of the evening, stated that work on tho well hat boon re tarded by an act of some "wlschevl ous" pcrsou or persons. During the Christinas holidays the well was left unprotected and some one dropped several largo chunks of steel down the hole practically plug Ring It. Mr. Josey in a 'spirit of charity characterized this person or these persons as "mlschievious." Puo to Ignorance of the presence of the steel the drilling crew continued to drill and after three months have Succeeded In' penetrating "nine feet thru steel. The last shift of drilling put the drill down 1 4 feet. Tho com pany is again ready to start at the rate of 1 4 feet per day., The well Is now at a depth of 1390 feet. The water which is above the 800 toot level in cut off and conditions are favorable for the resumation of drill ing. ... . - Ho commended the directors on the care with which they have bandied the funds and said that altho some things might have been done differently that the best meth ods were used under thq circum stances. Progress may have beeti Slow and mistakes may have bee J mado but one who never makes a mistake never accomplishes anything. In taking into consideration the equipment at the well, said Mr. Josey the cost of the well so far has not been excessive and every dime has been spent properly. All of the men in charge are capable and experienced and Mr. Walt, the driller, stated the speaker, la a man of ability and thor oughness in this line of work. Mr. Josey states that the oil is there beyond a doubt. Many people have seen it Issuing from the well. He states that the VIA IK geological , formations -where tho,our ear(J opportunity. large percentage of oil In the U. S. la found are all present tn this val ley. In addition to these convincing points in favor of continuing opera tions, Mr. Josey read a table com piled by the U. S. Geological survey which listed Oregon as an oil pro ducing state. This he states is recog nition and a great point in our favor, as several states were not even men tioned.

Mayor Gates spoke urging the people to subscribe to tho continu ation of the work. Ho Kld that he regarded It as a gamble and advised everyone else to do likewise, but to subscribe, as much as they could af ford to on a gamble. The gamble, be stated, however seemed to htm an exceedingly good one. He said that no button-holing would be done to procure the necessary funds but that co-operation was expected. He urged the citizens to Invest In the develop ment projects of their own state in stead of projects for development in other sections of the country. It will take $10,000 to put the well down to the "000 foot level, but production la expected' before 2000 feet la reached, nceordlug to Mr. Josey.

The raiders, much alarmed, gathered around him and tried various ways of resustlcatlon with but little apparent Bucceim.

All the cars in the party had their state licenses re moved or covered up. Then apparently Hale fainted away again as the Ku Klux Klan drove away. It seems that he shortly after wards went home and telephoned for a physician. It, is known that Sheriff Terrlll and Deputy Sheriff Forncrook worked on the caae the rest of the nigrht nnd all day today, but neither of them could be found to be questioned as to what knowledge gained, if any, and as to the snerirra attitude In the affair.
