DOOMED TO DISAPPOINTMENT.

Our friends up on the hill are lean- ing upon broken reed in the thought that the recent extension of civil ser vice rules will insure retention of their positions with change of administra- tion. It only means that their sue .cessors must stand examination, and there will be no difficulty in finding good republicans who can pass.
 The Chicago Record says: ''In the recent case of Eugene Gaddis. who ap- piled for an injunction to prohibit his dismissal from the treasury depart ment by Secretary Carlisle for polti- cal reasons, the court held that there was nothing in the civil.servicc rules that required the head of an executive department to give reasons for dis pensing with the services of a clerk, and therefore the law will permit cabinet officer to dismiss as many clerks as he pleases for any reason whatever. His power of removal is absolute, and the ciyil-scryice com mission is not advised of his action in this respect except where appoint ments are made to the vacancies thus created. The commission has juris- diction over appointments only"

A MERRY CHRISTMAS,

With the succeeding week there comes one of the world wide anniver- saries which appeal to the tenderest emotions, recall the tenderest associa- tions and expand the hearts and chari- table impulses of mankind, at the same time commemorating the re- markedly pure and holy life and rare individuality of one who, whether con- sidered as God or man, has left the wonderful impress of His mind and character upon the thoughts and hab- it's of man, more deeply than any and all others since the dawn of history.
 Apart from all these considerations it is good for men, good for society, that we have such an anniversary. On this day self is forgotten, and all live for others. That the natal day of One whose entire life was one of sa- preme unselhshness and continual sa- critice should be thus taken for com memoration is no wonder. And as the world has been purer and better for the advent of that rare character, and mankind has been uplifted and en- nobled by His sweet influence, so is His day great white mark in the cal endar, and a season of joy and happi- ness for all.

A NEGLECTED pusrsrssorEsrso.


 The climatic conditions of the re- zion surrounding Nogales far more closely approach those of central and northern California than in any other part of Arizona. Here we have the fall and winter rains which are so pro- ductiye of great grain crops in the interior valleys of the Golden state; and Tn the surrounding valleys just as good wheat can be raised without ir- rigation-and is raised in small auan- tities. With healthy demand for wheat there would be an acreage sown to that grain which would be surpris- ing.
 With the proper facilities for con version into flour at Nogales there would spring up a demand for wheat which would bring under cultivation many thousand acres tributary to the town, and di stribute among our own people thousands of dollars now an- nually sent to Kansas and Colorado for -four. TIE OASIS is informed by dealers that at the present high prices for imported flour the monthly sale of that commodity in Nogales amounts to about five car loads. With cheap CT flour made at home the consump- tion would be greatly increased, the many mining camps in this part of the territory which are now importing would flour send their trade in that article to local mill at Nogales, greatly swelling the demand.
 In Graham county, with q tributary population no greater, there have re- gently been erected two roller process mills with daily capacity of fifty barrels each; and they are making money. It goes without saying that one good roller process mill with a ca- pacity of fifty barrels per day, at No gales, would prove a most profitable investment. This Is an opening which will pay some capitalist in the milling line to investigate. There is big money in it for the right kind ofa man.

GOSPEL TRUTH.

At the reunion of the Meagher bri- gade, in New York, Friday evening, Amos J Cumings, democratic con gressman, uttered the following:
 q want to speak of the recent ava lanche, as a victim. l want to con gratulate the dead soldiers on winning the victory My successor is an old warrior, so don't care. It's all right. Some people say that Dr. Parkhurst did it, but say that when any party attempts to pass pension bill that takes the food from the mouths of the widows and orphans of those who fought for the Union, that rartv will soon go ta the wall, and, wh; is more wmpelful l. l9f fhere were more re- publicaus elec ed in the sni tn than there were democrats elected in the north,H

WITH all the hue and cry about pen sion frauds by Mir. Cleveland and his factotum Lochren, an investigation extending over months of time, and costing hundreds of thousands, there have been discovered just twenty-nine fraudulent pensioners; and the total aggregate they drew from the treasury will not cover one side of the cost in finding them. While it was eminent ly proper that the frauds should be un- earthed, the method they set about iL was damuable. First in an executive state paper the declaration was put forth that the pension system was honeycombed with fraud, and stigma thereby cast upon the great body of veterans. Then thousands of pension- CTS were suspended pending investiga- tion, creating great hardship and suf- fering, when the right way would have been to investigate first and suspend afterWard.

POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE.

In an article touching upon a mat ter developed in the recent municipal campaign at Tucson the Citizen calls attention to the fact that it has al- ways consistently and earnestly sup ported the entire republican ticket the bad and indifferent along with the good. This course of the Citizen is directly in line with that doctrine THE OASIS has so earnestly preached to Arizona republicans not that this journal does not recognize the fact that the republican party, even, some times deserves christening: but that the christening should come from the people-not from the party leaders. 1t is those who never aspire to party prefefment and leadership who have the right to chastise. Whenever those who assume leadership and hope for party favor raise the christening hand they place the party on the defensive when they succeed in securing nomi- nations: for they surely receive the &C., tive antagonism of those they have formerly opposed, and all their friends; the result is the ruin of party cohe- sion.
 But, says the self willed leader, am to submit when my party makes manifestly unfit nominations?"
 To this THE OASIS unhesitatingly replies: Certainly. Because in your turn your nomination will be declared unfit by those you butcher, and the party suffers all the way around. New CT you worry about the unfit nomina- tions of your own party: the opposi- tion will do that; and the dear people will care for the unfit nominees.
 Any other method Of fpolitcal proce- dure simply resolves politics into an unseemly squabble between indiyi- duals, and in the end all principle and the public welfare are lost to sight.
 Like the Citizen THE OASIS is in politics for principle, and it supports the republican party because it hon. estly and earnestly believes that the principles of that great organization are the best for application to the public business. And it don't believe in seeing those princip les sacrificed by unseemly squabbles between indi- yiduais.

WHY all this outcry whenever an enabling act is proposed for the ad- mission of Arizona? Under the very provisions of the act admitting Utah the date of admission is set so her sen ators and representative cannot take their seats until the next congress
 one year hence. Arizona will not be admitted before. Then there is ann pie time to elect and hold constltu- tional convention and submit it's work to the people. The cry against it sug- gests "a nigger in the woodpile."

BY CALLING out the regular army to put down the railroad strike last July President Cleveland paved the way for the present sweeping reduc- tion in wages of railroad men. At that time THE OASIS asserted that the contemplated reduction now enforced was the sole cause of the strike. A conspiracy of the general managers took advantage of the situation at Pullman to bring about the strike with this very object in view. And they knew that in Cleveland and Ol- ney, corporation lawyers, they had fit tools.

FaIi River spinners Have . Conference
With Manufacturer

With Manufacturers.
FALL RIVER, Mass, March 2o-After
long conference between the committees
of the cotton manufacturer association
and the Fall River Mule Splnners' asso-
ciation the meeting was adjourned, with
out any action being taken. to meet again
In three weeks.
The manufacturers first tried to draw
the spinners out, and finally stated that a
general cutdown of 10 per cent for all
classes OF help was about what would be
recommended. The spinners were OPP
posed TO such action and stated that IL
would be resisted. They recommended
that the mills run only four days week.
This did not meet favor with the manu-
facturers, who claimed that such q curtail-
ment would increase the cost of manu.
featuring. as taxes, insurance. interest,
and other regular expenses aside from
supplies would not be reduced.
The spinners withdrew twice for pri-
vate consultation before the conference
closed. They were asked to meet the
manu- facturers again in week aud state
what they proposed to do. and declined,
saying the time was too short. The man.
ufacturers agreed TO two weeks, and then
TO accommodate the meeting of the Ma
tlonal Spnners' association, the confer
encc was adjourned for three weeks.
