THE WELSH GURHER.
Sold to bo tho Great eat In the United
State*.
Special to The Tribune.
Welsh, La., November 18.—
The well which came in so sud
denly and unexpectedly Sunday
afternoon continues to gush and
at 11 o’clock this morning the
gas pressure appeared even
greater than yesterday. Con
siderably more oil exudes today
than at any previous time. The
drillers pronounced it a com
plete well and the company ac-
cepted it readily. With the
valve almost closed and an el-
bow placed over the cap
stream of oil with a small
cent of water is being thrown
into i. slush pool some distance
away. In an interview S. W.
Clay, who has operated in all
the important oil and gas fields
in the United States, says the
Welsh well has by far the
greatest pressure of gas he ev-
er encountered. The well is yet
beyond control.

per The Orange Business Men’s
League was organized last night
and will be known as the Pro-
gressive League of Orange. The
meeting was called to order a
8:15 p. m., with Geo. W. Ban-
croft in the chair, and H. J.
Ortmeyer was appointed tempo
rary secretary. F. H. Farwell
was elected by acclamation as
permanent chairman of the or-
ganization, and a committee,
consisting of Messrs. P. B. Cur-
ry, Sr., C. M. ^ein and W. D.
Bettis, was appointed to sug-
gest the kind of secretary need-
ed by the League, and to report
at the next meeting. A motion
was made by W. D. Bettis to
have the chairman appoint, at
the next meeting, an executive
committee of seven members,
which motion was also carried.
It was then decided that Geo.
W. Bancroft be appointed treas-
urer of the League, and a mo-
tion was made to meet at the
Hollapd hotel, on Thursday eve-
ning at 8 O’clock, and to invite
everybody, admissible to the
Business Men’s League or Pro-
gressive League, to partake of
a little lunch, a committee was
accordingly appointed to ar-
range for from sixty to one hun
dred covers, and all the members
present were appointed a com-
mittee to invite all good men
and progressive citizens that
aave the interest of Orange at
leart, to join the organization.
We may expect the Progrei
League to do much for our
already prosperous town, and
with the younger generation at
:be helm, the ship of prosperity
s bound to travel in progress-
ive channels.
The League starts out with a
membership of seventy of our
best and brightest business men,
all of whom have the interests
of Orange at heart, and all of
whom are bound to see Orange
reach the pinnacle of great-
ness.
Let us work for a Greater Or
ange and better roads connect-
ng us with the neighboring
owns. That road to Echo, for
nstance, must not be lost sight
of, for it will bring us a great
amount of trade, and will be
mopjey in our pockets. Then we
want deep water, an opera
bouse, the river fYont builded
up, more factories of all kinds,
that cotton mill, find we want
the outside world to know that
we wait everybody who has
money *to invest, to invest it
with us, and help us to make
i )range one of the best cities of
he South. Everybody, there-
fore, remember that the forth-
coming meeting of the League
at the Holland is an important
one, and that all should be
jresent, because thereon will
linge the prosperity of v our
jeague and the greatness of
Orange.
