Within a week the population of this east-central Texas community jumped 4,000, and the council announced there was room and facilities for 25,000 more. The boom was precipitated by discovery of oil in rank wildcat territory 10 miles west of here. It was the No. 1 Long Luke Plantation well of the Texas Seaboard Oil Company and the Tide Water Oil Company. When it became apparent the .well would make a good counuer"cial producer, the rush to buy up leases in Anderson county started The play extended into {freestone and Leon counties, to the west aud southwest. All the excitement and fever of a regulation oil boom prevailed City officials prepared to amplify facilities for taking care of new residents, arriving by automobile, train and air. Mayor 8 E. Reid said lhe city
