The Oil Situation.
Wo seldom ever look upon the dark
side of a picture, and very seldom do
we show that side to our readers; but
[ in our opinion the time has come when
it will be what we consider our duty to
show up to the operators of West Vir
ginia what we conceive to be the sit
uation of the oil business. In doing
this we feel bound to respect the opin
ions of none, but to state fairly what is
the disease, and What; in our opinion,
should be the remedy. In the first
place, the production is too large and !
still increasing; ard another thing, too
much business is done on the credit
system. Now to remedy this, no new J
development should be carried on, nor
no new wells be drilled on territory al
ready developed; and while any one of,
j any business faculties would think that
1 the oil men would thus act, what are
the facts? Simply this, that there is
as much operating to-dny as there was
when it paid to produce oil. A large
well is struck on Elliot's Run; what is
the consequence? Why, 10 or 15 new
rigs are built and operations are com
menced all a'ong the line. When will
it end, and where will it end ? To this
question we can find no better answer
than that furnished by the Greenville
Advancc:
"The end of this must come soon
Production must stop, either by con
cert of action, by prices becoming so
low that none but the few larger wells
can be kept working, or a general
smash up and sales by the Sheriff.
One or the other of these things must
happen, or a new outlet for oil, must
be found that will make the demand at
least equal to Me supply."
Now in regard to the credit system.
Many an operator knows too well that
it is a 25 barrel well or bankruptcy,
and when only about one well out of
twenty produce that amount of oil,
the number of men who must hedge
or bust is known only to themselves.
We hope the price of oil will soon ad
vance, but it seems as though it was
impossible for it to do so, when the
production of oil in the severat^fields
exceeds the demand some 98,000 bar
rels monthly.
WE heard a good story thc^other
day from one of our old citizens, about
a young man whom we will call B.
B* has a fashionable wife, who dresses
her hair according to the "code," with
"rats" and "braids," See. Mrs. B. re
tired one night of last week, and in
undressing her hair let a long braid
stav on the bed. Some time after B.
retired, and after settling down for a
snooze, felt something wind round his
rbot and ankle. He immediately
aroused his wife; told her that a snake
was in bed; cautioned her not to move
until he had made his will, and warned
her not to irtarrV agSin until he had
been dead at least one year, lie kissed
her and told her to jump and light a
lamp. Mrs. B. heard all he said, and
when the word "jump" came, sue did
jump and run to the door, and called
the neighbors. They rushed in by
platoons, a light was procured, and
poor B. was found in the last agonies
of death, Hastily, but cautiously turn
ing down the fcovers, the iong braid
was found wound round poor B. s leg.
Mrs. B. wears her hair without braids
now.
The election at this place tor school
officers came ofTon Friday last. There
was no disturbance and everything
passed off quietly.
For County Superintendent, S. H.
l'iersot received 23 majority; and the
following officers for the Independent
District of Voicano were elected by
majorities ranging from 10 upwards:
D. C. Mijd^e, President.
John A. Lafoy, E. Conger, Commis
sioners.
For levy, 99; against levy, o.
for nine months school, 99*
The officers eiectcd. are good men,
and we know that under their admin
istration the free schools of v?l"no
will be second to none in the btate.
We are pleased, .jlso, to note, that not
a vote was recorded against a levy.
Divine services' were held in. all
the churches on Sunday last. The
congregations were large and attentive.
On Sunday next services will be held
at the M. E. church and the Baptist
church. There will be no services at
Emmanuel church, the rector being
absent. v _
?The Reedsburg ( Wis.) Free Press
employs women exclusively. It says:
?We have a calico 'foreman,' two dim
ity 'compositors,' and the sweetest lit
tle 'devil' in pink muSlin to be found
anywhere." _
Railroad men and iron dealers can
ascertain the number of ions ot rails
to a mile bv a simple calculation. By
multiplying the weight of the rail per
yard by 11 and dividing by 7, t'te cor
rect number of tons required ?to lay
one mile of track is correctly and
quickly secured. As an example, take
a rail weighing thirty pounds per
yard: 30x11=330; divided by 7=47 ? 7
tons. The rule holds good lor iron ol
any weight, and is one of those singu
la." mathematical workings which puz
zles us to know how they were ever dis
1 covered.
i
The Mound-Builders.
The work of the mound builders in
the vicihitv cl" Vincennes, Ind., is be
ing investigated at the present time
under the direction of Profs. Charlton,
Townsend and others. The explora
tion of the largest one was begun by
mauing an entrance from the top,
which is to be carried down probably
about sixty feet. A local paper says:
"At ten feet below the surface a bed
of charcoal was found, and below this
there were remains of bones, which
were almost completely decomposed,
indicating their great antiquity. As
soon as touched they fell into dust.
Perhaps at greater depth bones may
be exhumed which are better preserv
ed. The earth in the mound is found
to be exceedingly compact and dry,
well calculated to preserve the bones,
but they are in a sta'e of almost com
plete decay. This is proof of great age,
as human skeletons have been taken
from burial places in England which
were much less favorable for preserv
ing them, rfnd Jet they were sound and
well preserved, though they were
known to be nearly two thousand years
old. The crumbling and decayed
bones exhumed from the mound yest
erday no doubt belonged theold Toltec
race which inhabited this locality about
three thousand years ago; and it is
hoped that some well preserved bones
and other remains representing that
ancient race may be exhumed from
this mound."
Our school olficers elect, D. C.
Mudge, John A. Lafo y and E. L. Con
ger, are all well and favorably known
through this section of our State, and
it seems to us that a brief sketch of
each of them would not be out of
place.
D. C. Mudge, Esq., President of the
Board, is now connected with toe L.
F. & S. H. R. R., as Superintendent,
and is a gentleman of a finished edu
cation and enlarged views or. the sub
ject of free schools. We know, as do
all the citizens of this place, that he
will fill the position to which he is
elected to the satisfaction of his con
stituents.
Mr. Lafoy is a gentleman who has
had much experience as a school offi
cer and one who has always given sat
isfaction.
Mr. E. L. Conger is a gentlemen
who fully appreciates the benefit of
a free school, being an earrest advo
cate of the institution, and by his own
exertions has raised himself far above
the reach of want. He is one of our
largest tax payeis, an earnest, good
man, a man ol sound judgment, and
one who perhaps gives more of his
time to study than any one in Wood
county. He will make an excellent
school officer.
The Pittsburgh Commere al makes
the following comparison on the prices
of crude anu refined oi! for the years
?.S73 and 1S73:
? The excitement among crude oil
dealears still continued yesterday, but
prices were a little stiller, without
change in quotations. The largely in
creased production, has gradually sent
prices down urtil they hive to.iched
the lowest point reached since 1S66.
By reierence to our files we find that
on the 30th of July, 1872, crude oil sold
at Parker's at $3.60 per barrel, while
on the same date this year the price
was $1.70 per barrel ? a decline of $1.90.
On the same date of 1S72, refiwed oil
was quoted in this market at 19? 19^
cents per gallon. Yesterday the prices
were 14^? 14^ cents. Estimated at
42 yallons, a ban el of refined, one year
ago, sold at $7 98(^8.19. Now it sells
at $5.983-2 (gib. 09 ? a decline of $2.00
pf^r barrel. The empty barrel (new)
is worth $2.25, so that forlj- two. gal
lons of refined oil are are sold for $3 75
or about nine cents per gal Ion, witnotit
the cask. These, of course, are whole
sale rates, but they are low enough in
ail conscience; and even alter the re
tailer has taken out his profit, which is
probably just now the "lion's share,"
consumers will have no cause to com
plain.
A correspondent of i he Scientific
American presents the following ques
tion: ...
"Will you please explain the cause
of the following ? Aline of pipe for
the. purpose ol transporting oil is la'd
from a pumping station.. Q\er an eleva
tion of 300 leet, to the iron tank. The
pump has a 12 inch steam cylinder, and
a four inch oil cylinder, and 24 inch
stroke. It is driven by a boiler of 50
horse power, which carries 80 lbs. of
steam. The pipe is made of wrought
iron, with a lap weld, and has an inside
diameter of 2 inches. When pumping
at the rate of 100 bols. per hour, the
pressure at the pump, as shown by the
gauge, is 800 lbs., while that at the point
of greatest elevation is 400 lbs., and yet
the pipe frequently burst at the high
est point ol elevation, and seldom shows
a leak at the point where gauge shows
i highest pressure. Please explain this
seeming paradox. AnVtvcr: The pij'e
is split by the impact of oil. if the
pump >s stopped, the oil will fall away
at either side irotn the highest point.
On starting up, the oil may separate
at the highest point, creating a vacuum
there. The following oil wi,H rush in
I with great velocity, and, it* motion be
ing suddenly arrested, will react upon
! the pipe, either splitting it at once, or
\ weakening u so much that it will alter
| wards break. Water pipes in houses
j are frequently burst in a similar man
ner, the motion of the water being ar
I re6ttd, b.y suddenly closing the supply
I cock."

The Lower Oil Regions.
Tiist at .this time the oil develop
ments in the lower districts are so far
over-reaching all expectations of oil
operators, the following items from the
Oil Man's Journal, at Parker City,
will give some information that may
be of interest:
VICINITY OF PARKER CITY.
A new well, owned by A. N. Hamor
and others, located on the Stevenson
farm, between Parker City and Mar
tinsville,, was completed some days
ago, which the owners represent as
started u,p at about 70 barrels per day.
This is decided I v one of the best strikes
between this and Argyle, and shows
that there W a large amount of good
undraineu territory in the immediate
vicinity of Parker which will afTord
profitable employment to operators for
years to come.
VICINITY OF MILLERSTOWN'.
Mr. Johnson, of Donegal township,
in th? neighborhood of Millerstown,
Butler county, who owns a piece of
land on which a well has been under
going the process of drilling lor seve
ral months past, telegraphed to us on
Monday as follows: "Well struck yes
terday morning; eighteen inches in
j sand rock; (lowing continually." Re
I ports received from the vicinity up to
a late date confirm the above dispatch
and represent the well as a big one.
Green, Mullen and others are the for
tunate owners* This wfcll is some two
miles southwest of the former devel
opment and opens up a large scope of
new territory for future operations.
VICINITY OK GREASE CITY.
A rig on the Hutchinson lease took
fire on Sunday night and was burned.
The engine artd boiler was not injured.
No one was hurt
The Preston well, on the Brown
farm, struck the sand last Monday
.norning and commenced to flow. The
gas took lire from the furnace and the
entire rig was shortly thereafter envel
oped in (lames and burned.
? Two new wells were struck the early
part of this week on the Starr farm,
between the Troutman and McClel
land wells, both of which are said to
be large; the one owned by Captain
Brace and others, and the otherowned
by Samuel. Boyer & Co, From all re
ports received both wells may be re
lied on as being very large, The Grace
farm, in fact, is variously estimated by
those who have been on the ground, at
from 600 to 1,000 barrels per day. It
mey be set down as the largest in the
world, equaling ? yes, it is said even
surpassing the famous Troutman well,
which is loraled not far northeast of it.

The American Bible Society have a
large assortment of Bibles at their
