The Butler Herald makes the following interesting stutement regarding tho oil pres. peels in that county, which contains en couragement for believers in the existence of petroleum in Heaver county. It says: We bavo beard that tbo operators for oil on the Wm. C. Campbell farm, west branch o' Bear Creek, Fnirvtew township, struck quits a vein of oil in tie second sand rock. Our informant states, when be visited the wel( there bad collected about ninety feet of oi in it. Tbo consequence of this strike was Inteuse excitement amooii, oil men. as the opinion hitherto prevailed that the west bianch of Bear Creek was not on tho oil belt. We presume the operators will not desist until the third sand is reached, so a8 to effectually test (be territory. This should by all means be done, for sliuuld the U fri tory prove- good for oil there is nnmnu who can calculate, tho immense wealth of Btnler county la tbiJ particular. Another fact is to be taken into calculation, sud that tliH belt would stretch to Eoydslown, Butler down the Conuoquenessing creek and on to Beaver, thus traversing the wholo county from It riurttueast to its north-west corner. Besides this, ebould oil be obtained at the Keiber place, on the Klltaaning road, 1' may be a question of vast importance wheth er the oil bell may not be some four or five milts wide in this sectioo, and if so, prove an inexhaustible mine of wealth. Tine, these things are as yet matters of specula tion, but they border so closely on realities that we are forced to give tbem publicity even though we incur the of position of the doubting and unbelieving.
