The Stock Market opens strong this morning,
In synipaihy with the gold ti-o, ami He idingis

stoiks, the Western (shares being especially
li nn nt a rise of 2 per cent.
We have predicted a great movement in stocks
in December, and wo regard this as tlie begin
ning. The great ease of money, the disposition
to gamble iu stocks; and the near approach of

aie all looked upon by specnlatars as "the hippy
lime" to buy.

We Invite particular attention to the prospectui
nf the lioynl Petroleum Company, which Is pub
lished in another column. It has always been
the policy of Tun Tiiu.onu'u to avoid, la It
Money Article, reference to any particular com
pany, but when one is founded which Is not
afraid to lay Its claims to public cnuDdonco openly
before tho p-ople,and by exact designation of lta
lands and statistic of their worth proves its
demands are based on substantial worth, we ds
not lr skate to direct attention to Its condition.
The Koyal Petroleum Company has leased six
farms, variously located, bat all situated In tho
heart of the oil regions. It is nmler tho mtnage
inent of substantial moneyed men, who will aee
that Its ail'alrs are properly conducted. That It
will meet with success in its oil operations la not
to be doubted, as the wells In Us possession nre,
many of them, producing largely at the protont
time, and tho reinalnslor are siluawd In inch a
niauner as to preclude the possibility of fail uro.
