The executive board of the Lincoln League met yesterday afternoon in Judge Cooney’s office and listened to pleasing re- ports concerning the proposed participa- tion of the school children of California in the approaching Lincoln day observ- ances. Judge Cooney, Willlam Burgess, Dr. Fred Baird and W. F. Howe reported that they had waited upon Mrs. Kincald, president of the Board of Education, and aleo on Superintendent Webster, and that they had been assured that an effort would be made to fether the plans of the league. A circular will be issued to school principals during the present week in reference to the matter. A letter was read that had been received from Lieu- tenant Governor Neff, dated at Sacra- mento. In part the letter is as follows: “] am informed that the feeling here is quite general in favor of your proposi- tion, and I belleve that a general move by the superintendents of the schools all over the State will make the celebration of Lincoln day a success. I have con- versed with a number of members of the Legislature and they ail heartily indorse the move that is being made in that diréc- tion and promise to aid all that they can to_further the enterprise.” President Stone reported that arrange- ments are making for detalls of veterans from Lincoln, George H. Thomas, Meade and Cass posts to visit schools on Lin- coln day. This example will be followed very generally by the Grand Army posts throughout the State. It was also re- ported that several artists have volun- teered to take part in the evening exer- cises at Metropolitan Hall, and there wiil be choruses by the children of the Ever- ett and Burnett schools. Eight thousand copies of a circular have been printed for State Superintendent Kirk to be sent to every school in the State. — Inez Oppenheimer’s Will.

LS S The greatest Interest in California ofl ficlds continues to be centered in Kern River, while the other districts have prominence according to their demon- strated productiveness. The Standard Oil Company is, seemingly, as much cerned in that section as any one can be A local writer reports that at least 100 men are laying pipe for the great con- cern in the Kern River district, and that the company “is moving heaven and earth to criss-cross the district with pipe lines.” The Standard Oil has already secured many rights of way, and owners continue to sign. To what extent the owner parts with his own right to lay pipe on his property appears to be debatable. At least there is considerable talk at Bakers- fleld on that point. While the Kern dis- tricts have the center of the stage the claim is advanced for the Summerland district that it is one of the most favor- able points for oil operators, principally because of the small expense entailed in nandling the business. The truth is that good things can be justly said of all the producing districts. The experimert has been successfully tried in the Kern River district of using drive pipe. A company failed twice in at- tempts to drill with casing. Local interest in oil developments 1s manifested by the second oil exchange to be established and also by the rumor that two new journals devoted to the oil in- dustry wiil come into existence. The Los Angeles oil men are in trouble concerning a city license on the jocal oll wells. When the tax was new its pur- pose was to provide for the payment of an oil inspector. The collections during the term of Inspector Monlux amounted to $14,570, while the expense of maintaining the office_ was only about half that sum, leaving Ti0-net triche. Sliy. Fhes 18 some talk of going to law to have the tax removed. The filings on oil land in Carriso Cre Jistrict, In San Diego County, now amount to neafly 100,000 acres. The claims are somewhat scattered. Stocks of oil in Kern County are in- creasing, notwithstanding that many cars have beén brought in from Eastern lines. Thirty_carloads per day go out from the Kern River field. At McKittrick several companies are overloaded with surplus oil and tankage is lacking. The double capacity tank cars that the Southern Pa- cific Company will soon have in use are expected to materially help in getting the product of Kern County to market. These double capacity cars will carry 13,000 gal- ions each. The length of the cars will ba Jorty feet on the floor, the tanks being two feet shorter. The Black Hills country in Yavapai County, Arizona, is about to be exploited for ofl.” "Emile Rautman, who has been iargely interested in the Corsicana fleld, 's one of those concerned in testing in Arizona. The oil and stock exchange building to con- | ‘| be erected at Bakersfield will be a four- | story structure, surmounted by a roof- garden. The exchange will be on the ground floor. The transfer of 15,000 acres of land in the southern part of Humboldt County to Los Angeles parties would seem to in- dicate that considerable activity may be anticipated in that section during the coming months. The Whittler field is gradually being ex- tended. Something more than thirty strings of tools are going day and night. The Stockton Record says that there re indications of a new field on the hrelfall ranch, about half way between the old Twenty-six-mile House on the Sonora road and Knights Ferry on the Stanislaus Rivey. The electric light company at Monterey will use petroleum for fuel and will have a 10,000 gallon reservoir for storage. According to the Redding Searchlight, County Recorder Lowdon is kept busy recording mining locations. of which many are for petroleum. C. R. Briggs. J. H | Hunter, C. C. Bldwell, W. C. Welch, J. | W.

The southwest quarter of section 30, township 32 north, range 2 west, has been located by Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Stone and Mrs. A. Hunt as the Live Oak petro- leum placer claim. p Ol is reported to have been struck in the San Ardo district, Monterey County, at the depth of 700 feet. The Bakersfield Californian reports that some of the companies operating in the ferritory tributary to the section 32 guich are determined to have a railroad buiit into that locality and pledges have alread: been given amounting {o three-fourths of the cost of the needed track. The Napa Register says that drilling iz about to begin on the Harris ranch in Berryessa Valley. The Register is san- uine that an oil boom is about to strike Napa County. According to the Mendocino Beacon, there is considerable excitement through- out the northern part of Mendoeino Coun- ty over the discovery of natural gas on the Redemeyer ranch, near Laytonville, in Long Valley. Prospectors have viewed the place and consider the chances good for striking ofl there. Heggerty Makes a Mistake. Charles H. Myer, a druggist of New York, on a visit to this city. appeared be fore Judge Cabaniss yesterday on a charge of attempting to commit grand larceny. Myer was at the fistic exhibi- tion at Woodward's Pavilion Friday night and during the excitement eccasioned by a possible knockout in the Root-Byers controversy, he, among others, rose from their seats to leave. bert D. Heg- gerty, saloon-keeper, 105 Sansome stree’, was among the number, and he claimed that some one attempted to extract his diamond pin. He pointed out Myer to Policeman Scully and Myer was arrested. Heggerty refused to prosecute the case yesterday, e confe: he was mis- taken, and the Judge dismissed the case. ——————— California Limited.

The resignation of Harry 'l‘orrar as a trustee was accepted and Anson Blake 'Sl was elected to the vacancy. Mrs. G. W. Slack also resigned as a member of the council and C. M. Bakewell was elected to succeed her. Commlttees were appointed to draft resolutions thanking Mrs. Jane Korn Sather for her recent munificent gifts to the State University and also to express confidence in the future policy President | Wheeler might take as regards the tax bills now before the Legislature in the interests of the State University.
