cording to Hoy E. Burks of Pauls Val-

of 1,700 feet, toa far to justify min-
ing, he thinks, but it indicates what
is underlying that region
"The well is in about 2,000 feet,"
said Mr. Burks, "and the drill has
passed through every character of
strata iuiaginab'e, but we have not
yet found artesian water, oil or gas
A local company took the well off the
state's hands for deeper drilling, pro-
posing to go 3,000 feet in an effort
to find oil or gas If we get water
inst<-ad. then the state is to have the
well by paying the local company the
difference in the coBt of drilling."

At the time of its passage it wai
claimed that the law was greatly
needed to supplement the service le-
ter law, and that since the railroad
companies could no longer discharge
a man arbitrarily without assigning
any reason they had made a practice
of writing to the surety comupanies
in regard to any man whom they do
sired to discharge and requesting thf
cancellation of his bond The Euret^
company would then notify the rail
road company of the cancellation anc
the company would assign that in th«
serv. e letter as the reason for th«
discharge of the employe.
The surety companies on the othei
hand claim that information ofteE
comes to t:. m through confidential
sources that a man whom they havi
bonded is doing something which
they consider makes him an unsaf«
risk. They assert that in many suet
cases they could not give the reasot
for their action without divulging th
source of their information, and tiiej
positively refuse to do that.
