NEW OIL LAWS
NOTICE.
Governing Inspection Likely to Come
Before Legislature.
Amos A. Ewing, territorial oil in-
spector, says that the litigation over
Ihe inspection of "oils would probably
oon be brought to an end by a de-
cision in the Oklahoma supreme court.
Both the Waters-Pierce OH company
and the territory were anxious that the
controversy be settled.
The injunction proceedings institu-
ted in the district court of Oklahoma
county by the oil company mouths ago
are still pending. The company asked
that the oil inspector be restrained
from rejecting oils that oid not have
Ihe specific gravity test required by
law. The injunction was granted and
Oil Inspector Ewing tests oils by the
flashlight test, pending a doclsion by
the supreme court.
The oil company alleges that the
law passed by the last legislature is
unconstitutional in that it says that
oils below a certain specific gravity
cannot be offered for sale. In its legal
argument the company declared that
it would be unjust to prohibit the sale
of a low grade of sugar or calico as it
would be to prohibit the sale of a
cheap grade of oil.
"Under any circumstances the con-
stitutionality of the law will be passed
upon before the next legislature
meets," said Inspector Ewing. "It the
supreme court, finds against the terri-
tory the legislature will be asked to
enact a new law."
C. W. S-.velzer Wins $50 Cash For a
Close Guess.
C. W. Swelzer, a leading merchant
of Edmond, called upon The Leader to-
day and left his subscription.
Some time ago he entered a guess-
ing contest on the population of the
United States which was conducted
by The Press Publishing association
of Detroit. Mich., who offered several
prizes for the nearest guess. His
guess was 76,295,220. The figures giv-
en out by the census are 76,287,310.
The company recently sent him a draft
for $50, which was the first prize. He
missed the government's figures only
7,910.
LARGE COAL DEPOSIT.
Oiscovery in Noble County Causes
Excitement.
j The people of the western part of
Noble county are all worked up over
the Indications of coal In that neigh-
borhood. Mr. Geo. Misner of Enid, a ^
short time ago incorporated a com-
'pany witli$10,000 capital, and employ-1
ed a driller to penetrate the earth as
deep as need by. They are now at
work about five miles southeast of,
Billings. At twenty-four feet in an ;
open shaft a fine blossom, was struck
1 which Is a sure indication of coal.
From that depth tbe drill was started
and now it has reached a depth of 90
