TOTAL nisAnrrIrY

The pension office has restored Judge Longof Michigan to Che pension uali This was under he act of con grcss of December a3fd. declaring a pension a vested right. that can be aG- nulled only by dne process of law and proved fraud. Judge Long is paid a pension of s72.00 for total disability" on this point the Arizona Gazette asks, lis a man totally disabled whois able to earn S3.00O per year" The inquiry of the Gazette is misleading. for under all ruling of the pension office, and the law total disability means total physical disability. and the pensioners intellectual capacity to provide a support cuts no figure in any such case General Black, the democratic commissioner of pensions under Cleveland during his former term. and now democratic member of congress from Illinois, receives pension of Sl00 per month for total disability, in his case. that of Corporal Tanner. that of Judge Long. and a number of others, their physical dis ability is such that they rcqnire con tinual service of m attendant to en- able them to get along at all, and the large pensions paid them are on that account.
 The attention of the Gazette Is call ed to another point When President Cleveland vetoed tue dependent pen sion bin he said a pension should not be badge of penury. Then congress enacted the disability pension bill, under which pensions are possible for such men as Long. Black and Tanner Now, in all fairness, the Gazette and all supporting the present policy of the administration, are cstopped by the veto Of the dependent pension bin from objccting tothe payment of such pensions.
 TmE OASIS would like to ask the Ga- zette a question: Why did the com missioner Of pensions suspend judge Longs pension. and Wliy did he u0t suspend General Blacks2 The cases are nearly identical Both gentlemen are physically incapable of caring for themselves yet both command large incomes for their intellectual attain mcnts. Why should one he suspended and the 0sher pass unchnllcnged: Was it because Long is republican and Black a democrats Win the Gazette please ansWcr2

In the lower house of Congress during the past week there has been a genuine democratic revolt against consideration of the Wilson bill. Dem ocrats willfully absented themselves, and number present willully refused to vote, breaking quorum. Finally an order for arrest of the absent mem- bcrs brought in a quorum of voting democrats. and the bill was taken up and will be pushed through to adoption under whip and spur of the admins tration. But there are rocky times ahead.

CITRUS FRUITS AND rrMrrRArunE.


 Sunday morning, at the same time the self registering thermometer at Arlzola read l0i degrees above zero. a, Riverside, California, the sam, iSili-i an instrument registered T. degrees lower; and the a'sociated press reports orange grove, at that place quite se- verely touched b. the frost. On the same day THE OASIS editor mlde a careful examination of orange trees a Ariz0la. and found that the frost hal touched them very slightly. These facts make it patent that this part of Southern Arizona is safer for citrus fruits than the famed Riverside region : that the latter is subject to just as great a degree of cold in winter, and that owing to other climatic con- ditions the frost does not take that hold upon citrus trees here that it does at Riverside
 The fact above noted is due to the exceeding dryness of the Arizona eli mate. It has long been known that oranges in Southern California would pass unscathed through q degree Of frigidness that in Florida would kill them. and that has been accounted for by the difference between the hu- mid Florida climate and the semi-arid climate of Southern California. Reas- oning upon the same philosophy it has been held that with it's much dryer atmosphere Southern Arizona is natur- ally safer for citrus fruits than South ern California; and the cold snap of this week has proved the truth of the position of those who have socontend- ed
 As yet citrus culture in Southern Arizona is in it's infancy: but it is des- tined Co great and profitable develop ment In the Salt River Valley the Arizona Improvement G., has demon- strated just what can be done: and there is big tield for the industry in the great Casa Grande Valley. Citrus culture, intelligently and scientifically followed, as at Rigerside, Redlands. and elsewhere iu Southern California. can be made very profitable here. Windbreaks should be grown to shell ter the growing citrus trees, and at tention should be paid to trees adapt ed to the climate. In this connection it might be well to take leaf from the experience of our neighborS in So- nora and plant such as have been so successful with them
