The santa Fc Connection.

The Deming Headlight has the fol- lowing concerning the projected Dem
 ing and Benson railroad: "The con- struction of the railroad between
 Deming and Benson, connecting the
 Santa Fe and the Guaymas branch IS now assured. This is step which
 has been contemplated for years but owing to the stringency of the times the Santa Fe management has not been able to make the move. Two systems owned and controlled by the Santa Fe and connected by an opposi- tion railroad have caused many incon- yeniences to both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific. The Santa Fe people claim that the charges assessed between Deming and Benson are most exorbitant, and there is reason to believe that there are grounds for the dissatisfaction. The Santa Fe does not propose to sign go year renewal at the old rates and simply will not do it. There are many other matters which have annoyed the Santa Fe

 George Graham also had occasion to declare himself to one of the kickers, at the polls, and for little time 1t looked as if there might be scrap there.
 A ripple of excitement was created later in the day when Uncle Sam's line riders from Buenos Ayres, La No ria and Bisbee put an appearance and offered to vote. They were promptly challenged, but swore in their votes. No little dissatisfaction was expressed that men who have no local interest whatever should be allowed to vote.
 After the result was declared sey- eral enthusiastic individuals gave vent to their exuberant feelings by explod- ing Chinese bombs and tirecrackers.
 And all concede it was great victory.

THE COUNCIL WINS.
The Kickers Downed at the Pells in Great
 Shape.


 Shape.
 Monday the municipality of No gales, Arizona, held it's biennial cleo tion, and when the polls closed at five o'clock in the evening the people "knew they had been to an election A total of 133 votes were cast, and the entire Citizens ticket was elected, re- turning to the control of the town for the ensuing two years the old town council against whom so malignant and bitter a fight had been made.
 On the successful ticket Capt l.. w. Mix had the highest vote, receiy- ing ninety-one ballots. A. l.. Peck led the kickers' ticket with a vote of sixty-two, being only one behind G. A. Avery the last man on the Clti- zens' ticket. The full vote for all the candidates is given in the proceedings of the council Monday evening, when the returns were canyassed, which ap- pears in another column.
 During the day many amusing inci- dents occurred, not the least of which was the challenging of a prominent and well known railway official, who has lived in Nogales many years, which occurred early in the morning. It was done by the challenger for the kickers. The irate official immediate ly set himself to getting railroad men to vote the Citizens ticket straight. He found several who intended voting for Peck, instead of Avery; and Avery 1 is the one man on that ticket whom the challenger most desired beaten.
 One man, visitor at Nogales, be- came so impressed with the preposter- ous claims of the kickers that he bet twenty-five dollars that Peck would be elected, and another twenty-five that l Avery would be defeated. His money has now been put into local circula- tion.
 All day Sunday the Vidette force were at work getting out an extra edition which was string of venom ous falsehoods leveled at the council and it's supporters. It was printed about midnight, and sprung upon the public about seven o'clock Monday morning. The idea was to poison the minds of the voters, and get their votes cast for the kickers' ticket be- fore any reply could be put out. The l kickers were paralyzed when an extra edition of THE OASIS appeared half hour later, which completely traversed i their extra, answering all its points and exposing all the lies. They were frantic with rage. The chief kicker, l Ephraim, then issued screed leveled at the editor of THE OASIS, and like everything else emanating from that oleaginous worthy, it was string of 1 lies. As soon as he had got the copy into the hands of the printer he at once sought seclusion and kept him. self religiously hid. He was in mortal fear of the humping laid up for him;

Special Correspondence.


 To TIE OAsIs:-All are glad to see active operations renewed by the Du- quesne Company. It will be a great thing for this camp and all the south ern part of Pima county to have a re- sponsible company take hold and develop their property. We under stand it is the company's intention to pump out the old workings of their Bonanza mine and sink also a new shaft. For this purpose they have bought new pump and steam hoist which are now on the ground. Such ore as will warrant they will ship to Fl Paso and treat during their devel- opment work their intention being to develop their property and find out what they have before going into ex- pensiye permanent work. If the re- suit of their development will justify we hear that they will put up exten- siye concentrating works. The kind of works is to be determined by care full experiments as they go on with the development. The owners of the property who are doing this work it is understood are thoroughly responsible financially and mean to give the prop erty fair opportunity to show what value it has,
 over here we see that Nogales is agitating the building of wagon road to the camp either via Washington ol San Antonio Pass. From long and personal acquaintance with the coun- try the writer believes that if satis factory arrangements can be made for passing through Sonora-lthis would be necessary by the San Anto' nio Pass that, on account of grades the San Antonio Pass proposition is the one to be followed up. While a shorter road might be built by Wash ington Pass, Nogales has had bitter experience in building a road which is not practical for heavy freight teams The Orc Blanco road is referred to- 1t is stated that the company have bought the bulk of their supplies in Tucson because there is good road right through to the camp. Nogales ought to have the business.
 It is reported that the DuquesnC company will provide a complete assay outfit and have employed first class man to take charge of the same sC that they can tell at all times what they are doing and be sure of the nat ure of the ground they are in from day to day. Your correspondent shal watch this work with much interest and keep you advised weekly as to the situation. It is hoped that an earl, date our camp will justify visit iron one of the staff of TIE OASIS who vii be more competent to describe ou position than your correspondent.

WHEELING AND DISEASE.
Physical Troubles in which Cycling Is
Bentf -lal or Otherwise.


Bentfi lal or Otherwise.
If bicycling is an excellent preventive
of disease and a promoter Of good health,
il is of no less value as a remedy for GER
tain pathological conditions. says DR..
Henry j. Garrigues in the Forum. IL Is
not compatible with the limits and nature
of a magazine article intended for general
reading to enter into details about the
treatment of disease l shall, therefore,
limit myself to a few remarks. BY its ef-
feet upon respiration and digestion. bi-
cycling becomes a potent remedy for ane-
mia-that condition of the blood which
consists in a diminution of the red cor
puscles and shows itself in pallor of the
skin and the mucous membranes. Numer-
Gus nervous troubles are relieved or cured
by this exercise; such as neurasthenia, or
nervous prostration-a condition usually
due to overwork or worry. and in which
the normal strength is lost and the
slightest exertion causes fatigue and men
tai exhaustion. The same holds good in
regard to headache, insomnia and neural
gia Among the nervous affections bene-
fitted by cycle riding may also be included
that troublesome disease, asthma,
cramp-like contraction of the muscles of
the bronchial tubes, which causes pain
full sensation of choking. In the begin
ming of phthsis, where parts of the lung
tissue become condensed and less per-
vious, moderate bicycling is helpful. Many
diseases of the intestinal canal-such as
dyspepsia, constipation and hemmor-
rhoids-yield to the effects of wheeling
A case recently came to the writer's
knowledge i'm which the stiffness remain
ing after fracture of the leg was sue
cessfully treated by riding a bicycle.
But. If bicycling is a valuable resource
in certain diseased conditions, there are
numerous others in which II is harmful
or should only be INDUCED i'm very cau-
tiously. Most acute diseases demand rest.
and bid the bicyclist abstain from his ia
vorite pursuit; and many chronic dis
eases are made worse by riding. Since
wheeling considerably increases the rate
of the respiratory movements II would
be folly for a person with advanced pull
monary consumption to attempt to ride.
The heart being whipped numerically to
work in driving the machine. wheeling
should be strictly forbidden in diseases OF
this organ, and persons affected with mi
nor cardiac troubles ought at least never
TO race or otherwise expose the heart to
a fatigue which 1t is not prepared to
stand.

ORGANiZE LABOR.
In New York. at ADy Rate. IL Is In a
Minority.

hinOrHy.
From the New York Morning Advertiser.
In the annual report OF the commission
er of the bureau of statistics Of labor FOR
New York state. just made public. IS TO
be found the interesting averment that
the organized wage-earners' OF this
commonwealth now number %. 900. There
is food for earnest reflection in these fig
ures.
According to the census OF 1890 the male
population Of New York state ~ that
time Of q years and over was 1.S00.coo
That, however. was six years ago. Since
then this population has considerably in
creased. In addition Il does not include
the male population under p years. many
OF whom are ''wage-earners. Further
more New York state contains several
hundred thousand female wage Gamers
OF one description and another. very few
Of whom are organized" They are TO be
found in not only mills and factories. but
in stores. shops. printing offices. law Of
fees. school rooms. and indeed. in every
branch OF trade and professional activity.
Allowance for these circumstance beinr.
made. therefore. IL IS safe 20 say that the
number Of organized wage-earncrs" re-
ported by the bureau OF statistics q labor
represents only about from 20 per cent.
OF the actual number OF working people
in New York state
II is not for the purpose OF helittling
organized labor" that these facts are
cited. ORGANIZATIONS OF workira pfCp.e
are right and proper II kept witnir lawful
bounds and as an agency Tor mutual self
help they often accomplish great good.
But when labor leaders, talk glibly
about the power OF organized labor Il
should be remembered how small frac-
ton OF the toiling population II consti-
fufes
