Oil Men at Washington and Thunder Mountain News
Western oil men talk with Washington reporters about Wyoming crude selling for ten dollars a barrel and the quality of lubricating and illuminating oils. They cite wells at Douglas and Casper, gushers near Linder, and favorable rail rates. Standard Oil buys crude but opposes outside refineries. Idaho’s Thunder Mountain district is rapidly growing with hundreds arriving daily, promising a booming population and historic mining potential.
