books show that it was paid on "ac- count of incidental expenses of chair man of loan commission It Is by falsitications such as this that they seek to make case against the repub- lican candidate.
 As asserted in these columns last week, the history of the loan commits sion is very creditable to Governor Murphy andshis associates in that body. They sold sl,600,000 in bonds at par. In some quarters 1t was pro- posed to sell them at 95, which would have entailed a loss of ss0,000 upon the amount sold. A sale was made at 97 and contract drawn for delivery, but the purchaser refused fulfillment until congressional legislation was se- cured making semi-annual payment of interest. With that legislation ef- fected Governor Murphy insisted the bonds were worth par, and he held out for that figure, and got it--a saw ing of s4s, 900 on the sale. The bonds bear interest at five per cent-a saw ing of three per cent, amounting to s4S, ,O00, or s960, ,00O for the term of the bonds. Beside this $500, 900 in bonds were sold at premium, but before transfer change in administration occurred and the present loan commis- sion failed to complete the transac- tion. All this was done at cost of only s2S,000-a trifle more than one per cent. Some years ago it cost the state of Arkansas five per cent to market an issue of bonds and they were sold at a discount beside.
 The present loan commission, hay-
 ing lost the advantage of the sale of bonds made by its predecessor, but not delivered, has made strenuous efforts through period of sixteen months to accomplish sale, without result. In that direction it has spent much mon- ey to no purpose.
 But the most important question is, If this charge against Governor Mur- phy be true, why has not the present territorial administration entered a suit for recovery of the money illegally drawn" If, as the democratic plat form asserts, sls,0O0 have been ille- gally expended, it is the plain duty of the present administration to seek recovery in court. This charge in the democratic platform, which the Saturday Review aims to bolster by garblng and dist0rting official records, if true, which it is not brands the present territorial democratic admin istraton with woful neglect of duty.

LOOK OUT.

The editor of THE OASIS knows nothing of the ambitious aspirants to public office who are seeking to organ ise populist party in Cochise and Graham counties; but he does know that if they are at all like the men who are at the bottom of similar movement in San Juan county, New Mexico, where he has lived and knows everyone, the people will do well to leave them and their schemes severely alone. In that county the movement is engineered to great extent by one Lewis W. Goe of Pennington, and an other W. $. Mitchell of all over the county. Coe is q criminal of the vil- est antecedents. In the early days of Lincoln county he was one of the leaders of an organized band of cattle thieves which robbed right and left, committed numerous cold blooded mur- ders and terrorized that entire region. Finally the law abiding citizens arose CD masse and drove him out. Going into the San Juan country Coe soon gathered gang Of criminals which rode rough shod over everyone, and committed all sorts of excesscs. They hung for cattle stealing one poor devil, known as Tex" and at the very time the hides of the stolen cattle were dry ing on the fence of Goes corral. He even made war on defenceless women and children, and notified one estima- ble woman la Mrs. Hubbardl with two babies, to leave the country. So great was the terrorism he exercised that her friends actually took her out of the country fora time. In later years he conspired with two commissioners (C. J. Moss and Henry Kiffin) and shyster lawyer, George Spence, who was publicly disgraced in open court for a high crime and left the territory to escape disbarmentl and robbed the county treasury of money to support newspaper established to boom Junc- tion City, town on paper projected by Coe, which never had more than six houses and now has not so many: and by court decree he was publicly branded as apurchaser of votes Mitchell is remarkably strik- ing type Of the Simian-the missing link, to see which would have done good to the soul of Darwin. This gib- bering ape was ever asking nomlna- tions from republican conventions, which bodies always had too much sense to bestow them. Coe was always foisting himself and his schemes upon the democratic party, to be rejected at the polls. Now these two worthies think they can fool the people and ride into office on the back of the new reform party. If populist leaders in Cochise and Graham counties are like them the people should look cut. Such men in office would steal both counties and come back after the hole in the ground.

are siekly looking in appearance and not at

the unnatural life alleged by their parents in
the home OF the latter, No. ol7 Q street north
east.
The testimony was so revolving that Judge
Miller remarked that It was the worst he had
ever heard During the hearing the father,
son, daughter, and mother INDUCED in q
TRADE of vile abuse Of each other, and the
father and son came near having tistIcun in
tho courtroom. Judge Miller held the accused
for the grand Jury in $500 bonds each. As the
brother and sister were being placed in sepa-
rate cages in the rear OF the court young
Rhodes embraced his sister and with tears
said, Darling, 1 don't know when we shall
meet again
The woman was unmoved by this outburst
of affection, and entered the cell with n chilly
smile on her wan features. As bonds were
not furnished both went to Jail.
