Troaideat Angell, of tbo University of Michigan, in hia adilreia to the grad uating class, apoko of tho tondoncy of tho tirao to look to eovornraontto do ovorything for ovorybody, a tcudoncy which overlooks tho.valuo of individu ality and loada to a alnckoning of that personal ollort which enabled our foro fathors to conquor nature and build up a groat country. There are sorno things that govern ment can do and should do bocauso it can do thorn better and with more certainty than they can bo dono by in dividual ollort, government in such cases representing a wiao association of individual eflort for good public ends. Presidont Angell is right, howovor, when ho says that thoro ia too much (hsposition to lean too much on govern* moat and to demand that it do what in dividuals can.do bettor for thomsolvoi. There aro all sorts of aisociationa of all ?orti of pooplo constantly pressing gov ernment, national, atato and city, to go outsidoof its provinco and try to accom plish for individuals that which they could do better for themselvoa if thoy wero to try and that which ia boyond accomplishing by human might. So the enactment of new lawa ia de manded, aad too often tho demaud ac ceded to, resulting onlv in piling up higher the mass oi dead legislation, dead because it is beyond tho provinco of government and finds no response among tho pooplo, from whom govern ment derives ita vitality and powor. Every community has its legislative experiments brought about by woll meaning dreamers and legislative in competents. Perhaps all this willbriug about a wholoaomo domand for fewer lawa better administered. Eves a very little rain ia encouraging as allowing that theaourcoof rain ia not entirely driod up. Wlijr Mexico Wants it. A dispatch from the City of Mexico says: "Mexico has tho advantago in a cheap medium of wages now, and it ia for hor intorost that Amorican working men shall continue to command highor wages in gold." Tho Mexican idea ia that by means of her cheap labor far ther cheapened by paving it in cheap monov, sho can expand her manufac tures by under-selling tho prodncts of the choapcat labor ofothor countrioa. If this policy snita the neoplo of Mexico they aro wolcomo to continuo it. It ia not a policy to commend itnolf to the people of tho United States, cer tainly not to tho wage-earnora of this country. The fact emphasized in tho dispatch from Mexico ia that wngos aro cheaponed by paying them in depreci ated money. This ia not a now rovolation, but it is a fact recognized by everybody who has enonfrh' familiarity with tho monoy question to form an opinion concerning it. It happons, however, to be a point on which tho advocates of the freo coin age of silver do not touch. '1 hoy prefor to talk about making it bo much easier to paydobta than it ii now. Of course it ia enBior to pay the halt of a debt than tho wholo of it, and a dis honest man la always glad of the oppor tunity to discharge his obligation in this way.

This oil tioldis now a? regards itfl poriod of do* relonmont, but it is rnpldiv coining to tho frout as a producing field, Tho first producing wall was drilled in the fall of 1801 and wintor of 1802. This pioncor well was tho Sullivan No. 1, situated at Sullivan .Station, a .South I'oun supply depot near Contro Point, thirtoon miles from Balem, Harrison county, fourtoon miles from West Union, tho county ?out of Doddridge county, niuo mile's from Shirley, Tvler county, and aitti:ito?l on tho Sistorsvillo and Bhlnnatou turn* piko.* From February, 1S02, to Septotn* bor, 1S92, this well stood alone at a fore runner of what was to he. In Soptoui* bor, 1692, tho tangfltt No. I camo in, and ntartod ofT with a productiun of 300 barrels por day. This itlmulatod html nom, and br tho lirst dnv of April, 1803, tho South Ponu Oil Company had olovou wolls in tho county, and woro tilling their warehouses with auimmonso sup ply of matorial, which indicated that thoy recognizod Doddridge couuty m an oil liold. Operations wore continuod through out this summer by the South l'onn Company, and othor companies began looking up territory. This was true oipoclully of tho Murphy-Jennings Company. This lattor company looted considerable territory noar Eaglo Mills and put down a test woll, which was a duster. This did not discourago this independent company, so thoy buckled on their armor anew and rotaiuod their looaea. iJy tho first of April, 1894, tho South Penn Company had increasod their property in this county to thirty wolls an?l onough matorial toputdown nonrly that many more. Murphy it Jenniugs had also increased thoir holdings to two wells. During tlio summor of 1S91 work was pushed Tapidly along, and at least three more companies obtained a foot-hold iu tho couuty. On tho 1st of April, 1895, tho South Ponn Company had ono hundred and thirty producing wolls in tho county, and Murphy and Jennings woro oper ating in earnest. / Desidea those two companloi, thero were threo other companies operating at this time. Thore aro nt this dato (Juno 24,) not less than ono hundred and fifty producing wells, and at least tifty more boing driilod. Good wells aro coming in uvery few days. All oi this doveloomont has boon in the northorn part of tho county. 13at last February tho Ilostlo woll, located near tho southwestern border of tho county, camo in a producing well, and the opinion among thoso interested is that an extenstvo field will soon bo opened in tho neighborhood of 8t. Ciara, in tho German nottleinent. An other well is boing drilled noar Nina, on (freonbrier, rathor between our produc ing tloldand tho now Hold of St. Clara. This well is nearly down, and roports from it all agree that the show for a producer i9 inoro than ordinarily good. Should this well, known as Carter No. 1, come in a producor, than wo will havo a connecting link betweon our northern field and our southwestern, which will co far toward demonstrating that tho fiold extends acrois tho wholo breadth of tho county. Tho South Penn has a monopoly of considorablo torritorr, and whoro thoy hold solid blocks develop ment is slow, ltut in the Klk Jack field, whoro tho Marphy-Jennings com pany is also operating, work is being rapidly pushed. There is much Unleased land in tho country that is open to operators who will insuro the owners a tost of thoir territory, and in tho vory heart of tho field, thero arounleasod lands adjoining landB on which produciug wolls are sit uated. Doddridgo county is coming to tho front, and if prosont operations be any critorion at all, thero will be at least threo hundred wolls in hor con lines oro tho year closes. Men who a year or so ago woro in straitened cir cumstances, aro now on tho liign road to opulouco and a life of ease. Wages havo boon fair wherever do velopmonts have been carriod on, and as a county, Doddridge has emerged nuscathod from tho panic. For her val uation of personal property was never ho high as at tho prosont time. All of which is owing to our oil dovoloptnout. V. I. A.
