The GOVERNMENT OIL AND MINING COMPA NY is organized on a strictly mutual principle, and its affaire will be conducted with the sole mew or afford ing a source of permanent business profit to thoee in • teresUd. Every Stockholder is practically one of the Company’s corporators. The Estates of the Company, is stead Gfbeiijg burdened with an exorbitant profit, ex acted by a tew lucky originals, are deeded, in fee, direct from diet owner* to the Stockholders of this Company, They ccmpiise' (Titles examined by Theo, Cttyler and T, J. Clayton, Esqs , and pronounced indisputable), located In the immediate centre of the great Oil .belt of West Virginia, which'region, for the superiority of its Oil end for the volume and certainty of its yield, is f«r surpassing the famed Oil Creek region of Pennsyl vania. Ist. The Peep Gorge Farm, in the Old Burning Spring region. In close proximity to this estate, on every side, axe situated the most successful Oil Welle to be round in the country, and at an almost adjoining distance is locatedthe widely-celebrated “LeweLiyn” and 1 *Eter nal Centro” webs, the former ol which FLOWED FULLY THEBE THOUSAND (3,000) BAR BELS OF OIL FEE DAY. being the greatest bona fide yield of Oil ever known,and vexy considerably surpassing, both in quantity and quality, the product of any two wells in Pennsylvania. 2d, Two thousand (2>QGu) acres; in two tracts, in the heart of the successful Oil region or the Great Kanawha, along whose course for over 70 miles Oil can be dis tinctly seen and gathered from the water’s surface, while the evaporation at the neighboring salt works is effected by igniting the Petroleum Gas emitted from subterranean reservoirs of OiL 3d. 100 acre* (in fee simple) of superior Semi-Bitumi nous Coal land, in Bedford county, Fa. The value and importance of the above properties may be Inferred from the fact that leases for adjoining lands, with large royalties of Oil, have been taken by New York and Boston companies at a bonus greater than the fjb simple cost of the Company’s estate, and if deemed advantageous by the Stockholders, it is be lieved that but little difficulty would presently be expe rienced in leasing a portion of their territory at a bonus and royalty greater than the original cost or the whole. A number ot wells are at once going forward, and more (Eight in all) will be sunk as soon as the first are com pleted. These, with a yield of Oil equal to adjacent wells. Will insure to this Company a daily cash income of several thousand dollars over every possible ex panse. The net cost of the Company’s three estates is $87,000. The Capital is $200,0C0, in shares of $1 each. 125,000 share* only will be sold, and no further subscriptions will be accepted at any price whatever. This amount pays for the properties and leaves a working capital of SSB.QCO cash. The remaining 76,000 shares stand pledged to be equally divided pro rata between the original or pretest amsciibers, at such a time as the Board of Di rectors may deem most advantageous to the interests of the Company - This reduces the actual cost of the stock to First sub. c iber* to exactly 60 cents per jhare. The immense profit to be derived, from earnest and successful working is shown by the fact that a tingle company—the Coiombia-ia thii year paying to its stockholders One Million (11,000.000) Dollars in cash dividends* besides a handsome reserve for additional devilopmenfc. The stock of this company, for $5 paid, has sold for over $4OO per share, The substantial inducements which the GOVERN MEAT OIL AND MINING COMPANY offer to those de sirous of securing an interest In a source of wealth that Is now startling ihe whole world are of a character that merit your gravest consideration. The profit of the undersigned, in common with thatof every stockholder, lies in the increased development of the company's rich Oil tracts, and their time and ener gies will be honestly consecrated to that one end. To persons feeding any interest or feeling none, every information •oncerningthe estates of the Company, its workings end prospects, will be cheerfully given, and detailed maps and charts will be freely shown. If you like our candid plan of dealing, or. nave any preference for a corporation that certainty means wonrc, we should be pleased to see you at once 30,000 shares were engaged on the first day.

Besides this, there are two wells owned by the owners of the fee, from which they get ail the oil. ' On this Farm there are now ten wells in operation, producing an average of ten barrels per day, and several others are ahont being tubed. There are also os it 87 (elghty-Beven) more lots surveyed, and more than fifty applications are now standing to lease the latter for one. half the oil to the owners. Out of the twelve wells on this Farm eleven are no w paying handsomely: a fact which sufficiently demon strates the great richness and reliability of the terri tory. Ho. 2 ’» Is the entirefee ample Interest la 181 (one hundred and eighty-one) acres, situate on the Allegheny river, nearly opposite the 1 * Hoover ’ ’ Farm, and a little nearer Franklin, at the mouth of Mill Bun, having a front of 86 rods on the Allegheny river, and one mile on hoth sides of Mill Bus, with ample boring surface for one hundrtd wells* or'Lota of ten rods square. This traofris known as the "Stewart Farm,” and is clear of all leases or incumbrances of any kind. There is now in operation a fifty-barrel well (beside several smaller ones) on the Cochran Farm, which ad joins* this on the south. In fact, the Stewart” Farm is surrounded with good-paying wells, and within a shost time a single lease of 80 rods front, on the imme diate opposite side of the river, sold for $185,000 (one hundred and sixty five thousand dollars.) On this le&te a good well has been struck within a few days. In addition to the territory of the "Stewart” Farm, which is believed to be equally as good as the * * Hoov er”) there are on it a three-story Grist Mill, with fine water-power, a good farm-house, and other buildings, that will be of use to the company. The durability of this immediate oil section is illus trated by ft e fact that some of the wells on the * * Hoo v er’ ’ Farm 1 ave been pumping for over four yearn, with out any material diminution In their yield, while the oil here produced* from its greater convenience for transportation and superior gravity, always commands from one to two dollars per barrel more than the oil at Oil Creek. The officers of the Company feel justified in present ing the following estimate of what, with vigorous manstement, the above lands can be made to yield for the benefit of the stockholders in a comparatively short time: THE "STEWART FARM.” There Is room on this for one hundred lots of tea rods squaie, all of which can be leased immediately for one. half .the'oil, /rteof all expense to the Company, Estimating one well to each lot (one hundred wells although there is room for three hundred) at the verik moderate average of ten barrels each, would make a H Bally product of..*.*-... LOQObbls. Out of this the Company’s share would he. 806 bbls. Yalue of daily yield to the Company, at ten dollars per bbl (It Is now Belling at $18.50) .*.,****..*.. $5,000 00 Allowing three hundred working days te they ear, this would make the Compa ny’s annual net receipts, from the Stew art Farm alone. •«••••»••»•• 1,500,000 00 Allowing the same estimate for the ‘ ’ Hoo ver” Farm, in which the Company owns one fourth in fee of the land interest, the itwmifll net receipts from the latter would be. 575.000 00 Making the annuel receipts from both farms.-- 1,8757000 00 Deducting from this amount the sum of $375,0C0 for contingencies, would leave the Met Annual Inccme of the tympany $1,500,000 00 ALL THESE LOTS CAN BE IMMEDIATELY LEASED, If it is deemed expedient, at a royalty of one-half the Oil, with covenants'binding lessees to sink wells, with all possible diligence, to the depth of 500 or more feet. A FEW PLAIN WOBDB TO SUBSCRIBERS, You are not asked to subserlbe’to this Stock with the expectation of immediately receiving large dividends* but the basis on which the Company rests, it U be lieved, will make your investment not only safe, but, prospectively, of enormousvalue. Notwlthstanding.atthe presentpricea of oil, the Com pany’* annual receipts (without any further develop ment) would he forty thousand dollars, or eight per cent, on the cobl of the stock. The president, Mr. Stewart, U one of the most prac Ucsl and experienced oil operators In the State, mid his residence near the Company’s property and general oversight of its management is the best guarantee that no efforts will he spared to make the investment pro fitable. Applications for a large proportion of thestoek have already been made, hut none will be received until the books of the Company are regularly opened for that purpose. Only a limited amount of the stock wit be sold at subscriptfonprice. The stock will be issued full paid, without further aaseerments.
