Mr. T. E. Goff said today:
"A report from our driller says
that he had reaoned a depth of 650
feet on July 10th and that he would
probably reach the Vlvi&.i sand by
the 20th or 21 at. Our secretary, Mr.
J. E. Wallace, will go to the field

made for oil, which Is sometimes
found in paying quantities In the

The following was given out from
Randell headquarters:
Fror.i what one of the campaign
■a
assistants to Col. Randell said to the
correspondent who visited the head-
quarters today Col. Randell will
have some additional facts to give
to the public that Will be of vital
interest and will poaeibiy add ginger
to the senatorial oapipalgn when
he resumes the, stipAw ’
Col. Randell WSs ,4*kon for a
short drive this eventing, anj seem-
ed to b" in the best of spirits and
health. The fact that he was able
to be up and about soon gained cir-
culation In the city and many of his
friends called at the campaign of-
fice, hoping to see him. Tlowever,
his physician deemed it best for him
not to get to the olYiee today
He will probably spend some time
at the office looking over such per-
sonal letters and telegrams as the
office force think he should see.
Eighteen girts were today added
to (he already large for<e and the
office presented a busy scene.
The following indorsement of Col.
Randell and testimonial of the es-
teem in which he is held by the min-
isters and pastors of the several
churches in his home city, as well as
the hundreds of church members of
the city, was given out today by Hr.
T. S. Clyee, president of Austin
t'Ollege. This was done because of
reports which have come through
the mails to some of the ministers
stating that Col. Randall's opposi-
tion in some places, where he Is not
known, was circulating statements
to the effect that he was not possess-
ed of tile indorsement and good will
of the moral element of his home
town.
.One., of Col. Handeil's assistants,
when shown n copv of this indorse-
ment by the reporter, said: "It is
a strange thing, is it not, tHat any
man, In the heat of partisanship or
the lust for success, should make a
statement in any locality, however
remote, that, would in the slightest
degree reflect noon Col. Randell,
and expert to get a wav with it.”
