Ni rHIil lHiiN Vl lliHl iNNNNNf Iis Fletcher NJ. Doan. one of the new set- tiers here, with Mir. C. $. LeBaron. presented new petition for school district at Arizola At that time it was promised the two gentlemen that if they would consent to await the April meeting of the board the mat ter would then be taken up and the petition granted. Although not ex- plicitly stated it was in some way un- derstood that the issue of bonds to build school house at Casa Grande by taxing the property of Arizola folks would be cancelled.
 At Florence last week MT. Doan learned with dismay that the Casa Grande people are still pushing the sale of the bonds, that in March they hope to get from the territorial su- premc court a favorable decision on the question of the validity of the bonds, on which decision they expect to sell them. and thus start the new district of Arizola with a burden of taxation to pay for school building at Casa Grande
 To put it mildly. MT. D1an waxed wroth at the information. He went before the board of supervisors and denounced the whole transaction as robbery and iabbegy from the very beginning. After very animated discussion the members of the board agreed that in no case will they de- liver the bonds without first notifying Mir. Doan and the Arizola people, SC they may legally contest such delivery NIT. Dean declared that he will ex- pend three times the amount of his tax in fighting the rank robbery, and that the low down skullduggery man. ifested shall return in all future cleo tions, to plague those having q hand in it: that if this outrageous imposition is forced upon the people of Arizola, whenever those having a hand in it or aiding it in any way, come mp for any office he will take the stump against their election, and speak in every school district to show up the dirty scheme in which they join.
 Butit was in the dining room at the Williams House. at the dinner table, that Mir Doan fguratiyely 'mopped the earth" with the Casa Grande out fit. There the subject came up, and Mir. "Joab" Reed, the gentleman who visits back and forth between Arizola and Casa Grande, :" ventured to defend the Casa Grande side of the case.
 MT. Reed said MT. Doan, moth ing you can say can palliate the wrong you are endeayoring to thrust upon ''the people of Arizola. Never have encountered a greater outrage or more contemptible proceeding, and can find no language sufficiently SC were to characterize the men guilty "of it's perpetration.
 l "On examination of the tax roll said Mr. Doan, T find that three "fourths of the taxable property in the Casa Grande district lies within "a radius of two miles from the hote '.or TIE OASIS office, whichever you take for the center. Now to bond ''all that property to build school house at Casa Grande, whcr there are more children who need school

SUDDEN DEATH!
The Community Shocked.

Last evening, just after tea, while Mr..
Thomas Hartman, prominent and highly
respected citizen, apparently in the best OF
health and spirits, was reading a newspaper,
the sheet suddenly fell to the floor; he
placed one hand over his heart, gasped, and
sank back in his chair, evidently uncon-
scious The family were stricken with con-
sternation, and Immediately summoned .
physician. But il was too late. The old
gentleman was dead. Physicians gave heart
disease as the cause. HoLbrOOk Herald
Every day the papers contain statements
similar to the above. Even youth is no de-
tense against heart disease, and the awful
rapidity with which It is claiming victims
forces upon all conviction Of its prevalence.
Reader, if you have symptom Of this
dread disease do not hesitate moment in
attending to it. Delay is always dangerous,
and in heart disease too often fatal. Some
symptoms of heart disease are shortness Of
breath, nuttering, or palpitation, pain or
tenderness in left side, shoulder, or arm, ir-
regular pulse, smothering, weak or hungry
spells, fainting spells, dropsy, etc.
Charles Raven, York, Pa, writes: At suffered
heart would seem 10 jump into my mouth, and my
condition made me very melancholy. Physicians
gave mo no relief became so much worse that
I was not expected 10 live, but was induced as a
last resort TO use DR.. Miles New Heart Cure. The
second day felt greatly relieved, and at the end
otter. days felt like king. Ny gratitude Is too
deep for expression"
Joseph Rockwell, Uniontown, Pa, aged 90
years, says: Z" For four years previous TO begin
