To the editor of TIE OASIS:
 DEAR SIR:
 In March last l was at Nogales few days en route to the Sierra Ma dres, where have since been steadily, about POO miles away from communi- cation. Returning last week, at Torres station, read the first news paper have seen in three months. 1t contained Senator Teller's speech before the national republican con vention. I considered, and still do so, the grandest intellectual effort made by man since Tom Paine wrote "The Crisis and circulated it in the camp of Washingtons army Here is again "a time to try mens' souls"
 l believe Senator Teller one of the grandest, brayest American citizens of the day, with heart and brain both alive to the needs of his countrymen, have voted the democratic ticket thirty-two years. l will not cast my vote for any candidate on single gold standard platform.

CONSTITUTION ron CHINA'
4 Movement for the Overthrow oil TIC
Present Dynasty,

Sun Vat Sen. the Chinese doctor. who
was kidnapped 10y officials of the Chlnese
legation i'm London. and who was supse-
ouentlv released on the demand OF the
MARQUIS of Salisbury, has published an
article here i'm which he says that the
value of Iii Hung Chang's head VIII be
determined by the value of the iniornia-
ton ne has taken TO China anent the 40
ings and the power of the Chinese abroad.
sun Vat Sen says he was the leader oil
the conspiracy at Canton In October ls9'
to establish "a constitution for CHINA. Inc
society which ne belonged 10 was called
the Hing Chung-Wocy. meaning Chinese
Progressive Society" He says it has a
powerful organization I'm America with
"A centre at San Francisco and headquar-
tiers i'm New York. Sun Vat Sen further
states that the American chief IS Walter
rong. the first Chinese graduate at
stamford Conn. and that his principal
colleagues are graduates Of Yale, Har-
ward and other universities.
The article includes a letter, dated
Chicago. from Wong-Chin-Foo, who
claims that the movement i'm the United
States is i'm good shape.
Wong-Chin-Foo editor Of the Chinese
News. Of Chicago. says the object of the
Hing Chung ocy organization was TO DO
Chinese Kingdom and open il up 70
modern civilization. The present dvnas-
". according To Wong-Chin-Foo. will be
asked 20 get out, and if it refuses 1t will
he put out. Only peaccable methods will
at first be employed. but If these are not
successful. then an appeal will be made
TO arms. and England and the United
States will bc asked TO recognize the re-
form party as belligorcnts.
Wong Chin-Foo said that tho reason
that Sun Vat Sen was Kidnapped 10y the
Chinese embassy I'm London was solely
because he was known TO be a member Of
the reform party, and that If the Chinese
government had succeeded I'm getting him
20 China his head would have been cut
off AZ once. The reform movement IS
scheduled 20 begin active operations IN
the very near future.
One Of The best known Chinese mor-
chants Of New York. said the Hing
Chung Wocy had for its object the over
throw Of The present government i'm China
and substitution Of n republican form OF
government. He said that the orcaniza-
ton was more successful i'm noint Of
numbers OF enthusiasts than the most
sanguine anticipations Of the leaders had
looked for. and he claimed that in the

HAVANA. Dec. IA complete calm
prevails here to-day. following the noisy
demonstrations made upon the receipt
OF the news Of the death of Maceo and
upon the arrival of Captain-General
Weyler from the province Of Pinar del

lions made last night by the Volunteers,

The Municipal Council has decided TO
place portrait of General Weyler in
the chamber in which the Council
meets. and as further honor will
change the name of Calico Bispo or
some other principal street Of the city
to Calico Wcyler.
II is expected that the Captain-Gen-
eraI will shortly give decision on the
proposal Of the Defence Committee 20
allow the planting and grinding Of
