It has now been proven beyond the possibility of doubt that there is oil in JelTersou county. But whether It exists In paying quantities Is another question. In years gone by there has been much speculation on the subject, and a great deal of talk. Several wells were drilled iu search for oil, but they were all reported to bo dry 1 oles. Some peoplo believed that sotm of theso reports were untrue. And seme persons expressed a belief that one (r two, or more, of these holes were nr t as dry ns they were reported. And It is positive ly known that one well near the Clarion river mndo a good showing of oil. It was afterward destroyed by .Ire. How much truth there was In tlixo stories, outside of what related to the one well, we know not. Some who knew the facts aro dead, and the knowing ones who are alive won't tell. But the last few weeks h iro demon strated the presence of oil in t he north end of the county. Two wells wero drilled within about a mile and a half of Sigel, and both ate producing oil. One is roportod to be about a seven or eight barrel well, and the other Is a little bettor than that probably good for ten or twelve barrels. This discovery of oil was mado by tho JelTersou Gits Company, when sinking a gas woll. So far tho find is not a very rich one. There Is no cause for excite ment, and we will wuit for further de- volopemonte. Brook ville Ikmocrttt. Reduced Rates to Bradford.
