FACTS AND EXPERIENCES.

In common with the rest of Arizona
 Pinal County desires the settlement
 of people, investment of capital and
 creation of new communities within
 her borders. Everywhere else every
 reasonable encouragement is given to
 those who work to bring and establish
 these necessary and valuable adjuncts
 of development and civilization. The
 inference is that Pinal County offers
 the same encouragement; otherwise it will be very little new capitas or new population that will be attracted to a permanent location within the limits thereof.
 About the least that can be done in
 the way of such encouragement is to give new communities the school facil- tiles to which they are entitled by law, giving their people for education of their own children the school revenue drawn from the taxable values they create themselves. Anything else would sayor strongly of injustice. would be greeted with disfayor any where else, and should not find favor here.
 At Arizola laudable enterprise has been undertaken that is meeting mod ern ideas, has already added greatly to the taxable valuation of the county, and will for many years continue to add to such taxable valuation in an ever increasing ratio. A most import ant factor in this good work of incrcas- ing taxable values will be to give this community the American right of To- cal self government, and allow it's peo- pie to conduct their own schools in their own way, with their own school tax money, raised by levy upon their own property, which they have here improved and created. They do not ask to tax the property of people in another community to support their schools, for that would be manifest injustice; nor do they wish to have their property taxed to build school houses and educate children in another community, which would be equally unjust, The courts would not compel such an injustice, and the people Of ArizOla will contest in the courts ev- cry step in the assessment, levy and collection of any such taxation that may be attempted to be thrust upon them.
 The foregoing statement outlines an condition of affairs now existing between the two communi- ties of Arizoia and Casa Grande. The Casa Grande school district. some ten miles square, includes Arizola and vi- cinitv. and the taxable property that hes been created by the enterprise of the people of Arizola is more than one half that of the entire district, exclud- ing the railway assessment, Arizola and Casa Grande proper are about three miles apart 4 school in either place would be inconvcnient for children re- siding in the other, and many would be unable to attend. h the very ns- ture of things it was to be expected that -ATizols should ask the creation

population would juStEy The loss of taxable valuation to Casa Grande can be restored by incorporating in that district miles of railroad to the west. now in Florence district, and which Florence does not need.
 When Arizola moved in the matter of getting a new district an election was called and bonds voted to build a school house at Casa Grande. The bond matter and the school district petition were before the board of su- pervisors at the same meeting. The petition was rejected, and the bonds ordered advertised to be sold July lst. Arizola contests the validity of these bonds, and renewed the petition for a new district. Sale and issue of the bonds were enjoined, thereby holding the matter open until the new petition could be brought before the board. While the temporary injunction has been dissolved, the suit to test the validity of the bonds will be pushed, and there are yet other suits ahead to contest the levy and collection of tax ation to meet the interest and princi- pal of the loan. Does anyone suppose the bidders will take the bonds with litigation like that hanging over?
 Now the best way to settle the mat ter is to grant the Arizola people their new district, revise the lines of Casa Grande district, giving it new terri tory to the west on which bonds can be placed. The entire matter comes up on the Fist, and the board of super visors can and should settle it in that way.
 Objection is made by some of the Florence people to giving territory to Casa Grande district to help out there Florence district comprises nearly one half of Pinal county. With develop ment Of the country there will be sey- eral calls for Florence to give up ter ritory to create other districts. Surely the people of Florence do not intend to notify intending settlers and invest Ors in advance that they will be de- nied one of the dearest rights of Amer ican ,citizens-that of local self gov ernment-and their property is to be taxed to build and support schools al a distance, which their children can not attend. And that is just the size of the proposition that is being thrust upon Arizola.
 As proposed by the people of Arizola two good school buildings can be put up where there can otherwise be only one, and where instead of that one the strong probability is that there will be nothing but expensive and yexatious litigation. In all candor and fairness, and without feeling, THE OASIS wishes to remind the board of supervisors | that it is poor way to build up a country by seeking to lay unjust tax
  ation upon investors. and forcing them into litigation to avoid imposition. The people who have invested in Ari- zola and vicinity are doing good and | effective work in developing Pinal Co. | and bringing its illimitable resources to a knowledge of other investors. It will be to the best interest of Pinal | county to encourage instead of ham, pering them in this laudable work. 1t is to be hoped that wise counsels will prevail, and that the board of super yisors will settle this matter in the only way it can be justly and equitably settled-by granting the Arizola petl-

MR.. BLOUNTS SUSPICION
GOTERyMENT NOT SATISFIED WIN
THE H1TATTAN REYOLUTION.
Mr.. Blount Sent Alone as n Special Envoy
to the Islands to Ascertain the True Con-
dition Of Afairs--Rigid silence.

WASHINGTON, March l5.-There is a
suggestion this afternoon that Mr.. Blount
may go 10 Hawaii alone, just as Mr.
Sedgwick was sent to Mexico by Secre-
tary Bayard as special envoy TO invest-
gate the Cutting affair which occurred in
President Clevelands first administration.
Mr. Blount has occupied a conservative
position on the subject of the annexation
of Hawaii ever since 1t was first broacned
by secret commission from the island
last winter. He is credited with having
a suspicion that the United States officials
might have encouraged the revolution,
and thereby put themselves In a position
to he accused OF having part In the es-

they are now asked to treat Mr.. Blount'

questions OF how the overthrow Of Lili-
oukalanrs Government was accomplished;
whether or not the provisional govern
ment really represents the popular sent-
ment of the islands. and whether or not
the annexation of the islands Is desirable
as business matter.
While settling these questions, IL Is
further asserted that Mr. Blount Will IN
form the provisional government that the
United States will not aid in maintaining
It against any but foreign aggression. II
will not sustain it against any other form
OF government the people of the Islands
may see m 10 attempt 10 establish
II is said that the administration early
received information. which was deemed
10 be reliable that the overthrow OF
Queen Lilioukalani and the establishent
Of a provisional government We're the re-
suit Of a plan formulated by the sugar
producing elements Of the islands, and
which was furthered In San Francisco.
Upon receiving this information the with
drawal Of the treaty and appointment
Of a commission TO investigate the situa-
ton were determined on.
All the statements on the Hawaiian
subject were more or less speculative.
and seem to originate In great part with
the Hawaiians in this city opposed 10 the
present provincial government. whether
or not the information they give out Is
authentic cannot be ascertained by IN
auiry OF the State Department otilclals'
who absolutely decline 10 say anything
on the subject maintaining a SphlnN-like
reticence on every point.

for San Francisco. and that he has been
accompanied by Mr.. Ellis Mills. CON
