Roikvillc, Bates County, Thought to Be a Second Beaumont. The lubricating oil wells and the asphaltum deposits discovered in Rockville, Bates County, Mo., by a Milwaukeean recently, ao. ac count of which was given in The Inter Ocean a day or two ago, have attracted the attention cf some cf the leading capitalist cl goojjthis city, and preparations are now (under way for a development pro- 1 icrl that inav make a second Beau- me same as iiiai now gusutug from tbe earth in Texas. Lubricating oil and asphaltum do no gush, but when they come out of the earth in an ooze of sev eral hundred barrels a day, at frcm $m 10 $15 a barrel, there will be no necessity of anything of the kind to cause a stampede to the new oil ElDorado. Money is already being subscribed by enter. prising Mihvaukeeans to pay the expenses cf a big plant that will be shipped to the wells in a few ! days. Samples of the product are in great demand, and are attract ing considerable attention. The oil looks like axle grease or mo- -lasses, and is about the consistent 1 cv of the latter, having a shade of varish or Japan, which chemists . . . valuable ' I properties in the stuff, over &o per cent of which is a commercial pro- . . . nu-,in, nA othr! , .1... i....v,. .

Messrs. t nch, j West, Morgan, and Miller have visited Rockville, and say it is certainly a promising field, even should there be no greater flow of the product than that now obtain ed at several small prospects, which are down only 200 feet. The fact that tio such oil is obtain able anywhere in the world out tide of Syria and Egypt, and that it is valued at an average price of $ia a barrel at the well, whereas petroleum is worth but 20 cents, is attracting the attention of scien tific men, a number cf whom have made essays of the product either at the wells or in Milwaukee from samples brought here by the local capitalists. There are no indi cationt anjwh-re in that section ol Missouri, at least, of petroleum, and the Milwaukee prospectors will make no effort in the way cf boring for it. The greatest inter est seems to center around the asphaltum, several local capitalists knowing something of the great value of the finds recently made in California; also in the statement of a local chemist to the effect that the muck or ocze when put through a certain process can be manufact ured into articles such as combs and buttons, while polishing prop erties are there in great quantity, especially those desired in tbe uiauu manufacture of fancy iron good. licago Ioter-Ocean. Labor Day. The basis of all wealth i labor.

These lend to the citiren his comfort, the public its convenience, and the mil- lionaire his wealth God created the earth, but man has made it a fit place for humanity to dwell in. Yet notwithstanding all this, labor, even 111 liberty loving America, was tbe portion of the slave until less than fifty y ears ago. The first step in the last act to dig nify and uplilt labor, was the great homestead law. The second step was the result of the war, the tear ing out the oncer rf slavei v fiom the bo-nm of the bo Iv politic.
