In this article, Monday, June 3, the Sun in the com so of a leview of the business and condition, of the South western Railway systems says: "An other potent influence affectingAtch inson for good is the oil discoveries. People heie have not paid as much attention to this matter as they should. The general tendency has been to scout it ns a craze. But theie is no longer any doubt that it aepiesents a permanent nnd almost incalculable inciense of wealth to the Southwestern territoiy, and hence, inevitably, to the Atcmnson, South ern Pacific and other lailroads in that section. These inihoads will gain much by the additional business geneially growing out of the new de velopment, but their chief product will be in the astonishing saving rendered possible to them in the cost of fuel. A ton of coal in oil does not cost over SI, whereas the coal used by the Southern Pacific and Atchin son railroads last year cost between $3 and $4 a ton. As the expendi ture for this puipose is neatly 25 per cent of the total cost of ti as portation on the loads, the impoit ance of the new found economy is appaient, It means millions of dol lais to these lailroad properties." This aiticle fairly lepiesents the tiend of thought toward the oil in dustry among capitalists geneially. The magnitude of the industry and its importance ns a source of wealth is perhaps not yet appreciated by the general public, but the leadeis in finance lecognize fully that oil and its numeious by-pioducts is to cut a groat and constantly growing fig me in our domestic nnd export trade, the extent of which is alieady colos sal. To make money in oil it is only necessary to discriminate carefully nnd Invest in stock of companies that nie under piactlcal and respon sible management and have laigo holdings of oil lands secuied at low piices. THE PACIFIC COAST AND TEXAS OIL COMPANY is such a corpoiation and this stock offeis the best oppoitunity to investois of any now befoie the public. The company refers, BY PERMISSION, TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE BROADWAY BANK AND TRUST COMPANY OF LOS ANGELES, CAL. You can buy the stock now for 20c, PER SHARE.
