COLD FACTS.

In discussion of matters of public import nothing is ever gained to either side by giving way to passion or anger, and at such times those most inter- ested would gain much by ignoring sentiment and getting right down to hard facts.
 Now in all fairness and esiiti0f I TfiE OASIS wishes to ask the people of Casa Grande what they expect to gain by forcing an injustice npon the people of Arizola, compelling the latter to go to the courts for protection? Will they get the graded school they want any quicker? Will investors take the bonds of a school district in which in self protection large proportion of the taxpayers stand ready to contest the levy and collection of any tax to pay any part of the interest or princi- pal of such bonds? Is that the way to hasten the erection of the school house they desire? Is it conducive to the best interests of the country to tell the people of community Jas were the people of Arizola last Wednesday evening by the chief spokesman for Casa GTande) that their own money ttaxes) should be used to force an in- justice upon them? Is it for the best interest of the county to publicly say to such community las the same gen tlemsn arrogantly said to the people of Arizola. Wednesday evening of last week: Perhaps we will give you a "school in two or three years, and perhaps we wont ?r Will it tend to draw investors to Piral county by nO- tifying them in advance that their in- vcstments will be taxed to build school houses and support schools in other communities that have taxable prop erty amply sufficient to do 50 without perpetratiOn of an injustice so great?
 The foregoing are the cold facts which should be considered in adjust ing this matter The main facts are that Casa Grande wants a graded school, and has ample resources to pro vide and support one without forcing .Arizola to contribute: and it will be secured and established much more quickly bynot insisting upon such un- willing support. These are the facts at issue, and there is time before the 23th inst. to settle the matter right, without leaving it to a protracted and embittering litigation fof settlement
 n this connection TIE OASIS re grets to note a disposition in some quarters to drag personal antipathy into this matter. Such sentiment is entirely out of place. It only serves to cloud the real issues, and engender feeling without cause.
 Another matter noted with regret is disposition in certain quarter without interest in this issue to take part calculated to diStort and belit- tle the position of Arizola. The peo- pie of Arizola are in no way angercd or heated in this matter and they are not ightirc tterestof the county nor is the rest of the county arrayed ID op-

q large number of offers and acceptances

The very best way to know
whether Dobbins' Electric Soap
is as good as it is said to be is to
try 1t youySeH 1t can't deceive
y0u. Only be careful not to get
an imitation. There are a great
many Electrics and Magnetics,
all intended to deceive the pub
lie into supposing that they are
Dobbins' Electric, or just as good.
We have made this since 1869.
1t is the original Electric, and
is guaranteed to be worth four
times as much as any other soap
ever made. For washing any
thing, from the finest lace to
the heaviest blanket, it is without
a peer. Only follow directions.
