THE OASIS will say to the lndepcnd- ent that this journal never argued that Arizona will be admitted to state hood without first suppressing public gambling. The argument of TIE OASIS was that it is neither just nor fair to draw the moral line on Arizona, in determining the question Of admis- sion. when it has never been drawn against any other territory In Colo rado gambling was as public and open in Denver, Pueblo and other cities, eight years after admission, as it is now in Prescott, Tucson or Phoenix With the growth that statehood fos- tered there grew in Colorado a public sentiment that has changed all that Now TIE OASIS protests against the exaction from Arizona of a condition precedent to statehood. that was not exacted from Colorado. Statehood, rather. should be the condition prece- dent, and. as in Colorado, that will set in operation material and moral inhu- ences which will bring about the very condition the Independent socarnestly desires

TIE OASIS feels that it is perfectly in order to congratulate the people of Arizola and Casa Grande upon the harmony and good feeling prevailing at the school meeting Tuesday. With the development of the great Casa Grande Valley the two places have common destiny which will be more quickly realized by working together than by fighting each other. In the the near future there will be in sight great common interests, toreach which the two communities must unite in work. Concession and harmony now will make union easier and more effect i've when needed.

A New IrrlgatInR Pumn.


 At Phoenix last Saturday. the editor of TIE OASIS was shown new pump for raising water for irrigation. that for simplicity of construction. cheap ness and efficacy of operation is a mar vel that is destined to cut a very inn portant figure in reclamation of arid lands.
 This excellent device for raising water is the invention of Messrs T. NJ. and NJ. McCay. It consists of wood box two feet square and of any length necessary, standingon end in the we'll. the lower end in the water. the upper al any desired height above the sur face. An aperture at the bottom ad- mits water to the box. An iron disk. revolving on two inch shaft gcared or beted to the power above, turns at the bottom, in the water flowing in. The disk, which lies flat. is nineteen inches in diameter, and three inches thick. It is cast hollow at the center, with four apertures leading from the the center to the edge. The apertures are seven inches long and four and one-half bythree inches square. As the disk reyOlves the water is thrown out through these apertures with great force and rises in the box with remark able rapidity, with the result that column of water two feet square rises to the surface and flows over the spill way. with about the same velocity it runs in ditch. Al trial at Phoenix last week, this pump lifted and main tained a steady flow of 225 inches of water to height of fourteen feet. with an expenditure of only three horse power In deeper wells the weight of the rising column of water can be relieved from the disk at the bottom by attaching one or more disks at regular intervals up the shaft. In revolving each of these would sustain and lift all that portion of the ascend ing column of water between it and the disk above. with very little in- crease in the expenditure of power, and but slight advance on the cost Of the apparatus, practically bringing the water at the bottom of q deep well as near tlle surface as that in shal- low one.
 The cheapness and efficiency of this new invention are guaranties of it's value and coming popularity, and it is a safe prediction to assert that it will come into general use as an adjunct to irrigation

A GREAT ATTRACTION.

At Phoenix last week a well known citizen who is generally pretty well posted, remarked to TIE OASIS man: You folks at Ariz0la and Casa Grande 'are altogether too modest about the ''unfailing water supply you nave in ''the great reservoir of the Florence ''canal Why, the water stored behind that dam exceeds in volume by one third that stored by the far-famed "Sweetwater dam. near San Diego. ''and were the Arizoia dam in South 'ern California its merits and advant- ages would be advertised far and near, illustrated descriptive articles setting forth it's glorieS would appear lin all the magazines aud periodicals ''and entire columns of the daily press would be filled with it's praises, while ''the country wceklicS would give it ''liberal attention; the wal er would sell for one thousand dollars an inch. and the land it irrigates would com- 'mand two hundred dollars an acre. You should remember these things ''and keep presenting to the world the ''yarious details and phases eff .he wa "ter storage system you enjoy, until it is as widely known as the Sweet water or Bear Valley systems in Cal ''ifornia, and of as great value to your county and community as are those .'those systems to theirs. There you have a dam that cost Sl30,O00. ''impounding body of water that coy- 'ers eighteen hundred acres of land to an average depth of twelve feet, supplying sufficient water. if hus- ''banded as in California, to irrigate ten thousand acres of land or tO carry thirty thousand acres through the two months when the (ila is dry: and yet the world knows nothing of it. Blow about it more. Talk of it more. Advertise it more. Let the world know what good thing you ''haye, and invite everybody in to share 1t with you"
 Pondering the subject the editor concluded that a good way to present the matter would be by quoting the words of the gentleman.

xEcRoMAvcERs BANKRUPT.

MERLIN: can call spirits from the vasty
 Ideep.
 HoTsPrR: Aye. So can l. ~0 can any man. But will they comef That's the question.
 By competent authority the demo- cratic territorial committee was called to meet in the city hall at PhGnix. at ten o'clock Saturday morning. The call stated the objects of the meeting were to elect chairman. vice B. C. Parker, deceased; to consider the Hey wood letters and prepare refutation of their gross misstatements: and to do whatever would seem best to ad- vance the cause of statehood. But between the lines and in the utter ances of some of the democratic news papers, it was to be read that the chief intention of the D litical wizards be- hind the call was to expl ode a care fully prepared charge of dynamite un- der the territorial administration and blow it out of office
 At the appointed hour the managers of the anti-administration faction Of the democracy were on hand at the appointed place, but there was no committee. The wizards had called, but the spirits failed to materialize: and the bankrupt magicians sorely wished there had been some friendly Hotspur to caution them against too great a reliance upon their own imag- ined powers of political necromancy. In other words the great majority of the committee had no desire to be used in pulling political chestnuts for any faction of the party, away from any other faction already enjoying them.
 Of the twenty-five members of the committee but seven were present. Of these three were said to be pro- and four anti-administration in sym pathy. The latter held five proxies, but they never got a chance to use them. At the very outset one of the other crowd raised point of order that in the code of rules adoptedto gov ern the deliberations of the commit tee. thirteen members constitute a quorum. and no business could be transacted by smaller number-not even the seating of proxies. With the proxies all admitted and seated the committee would still lack a quorum. During the afternoon the members present concluded all they could do would bs adjourn to a given date and give the necromancers chance to call the spirits again. So adjourn ment was had for ten days, and the bankrupted maglcians gathered up the damaged paraphernalia of their art and went their respective ways.

It is a notable fact that with aban- donment of polygamy Mormonism is receiving attention and gaininga foot hold in other parts Of the country besides Utah, with q good prospect for it's spread. The chief tenet of that faith is such as would highly recom- mend it to a certain class of inquiring minds with a strong devotional ten dency: and that is that the age of revelation did not close with the Apocalypse of the younger St. John, but is, and will continue to be, q neces- sty to the human heart and under standing, for which an omniscient Deity has made full provision.
