CAPITAL GAN WAIT.

Thos. Fitch is trying to hulldoze the people by saying that if Bryan is elected all moneyed men will stop their mills, close their money vaults aud let the poor people starve. If the plutocrats should do such an unheard of thing the poor people can stand it better than they can, for the poor have nothing to lose. -I Arizona Gazette.
 But the poor have stomachs to till A hungry man cannot wait A moneyed man can wait for safe in- vestments. Bryan's election would make investments unsafe until every thing was adjusted Co new conditions Capital doesn't open it's vaults to keep poor people from starving. It opens them to put out its money to bring back returns. Poor people who must work or starye should not vote for policies which will lock capital in safe deposit vaults to wait and sec what is, going to happen.

A MnItarr Po.t al NognIes.

The republican county convention held in Tucson on the l2th instant, mindful of the wants of the frontier, passed the following resolutions
 '.RRsoLvED: That in considerations of the extensive depredati0us upon the cattle interests of Pima county by Pa pago Indians, and the disturbed con- ditons of the border owing to the Ya- dui revolution against the Mexican government, we earnestly recommend that our delegate to congress be in- structed touse his best efforts tosecurc the establishment of military post in the county to fully protect the in- terests of our citizens"
 The above is a timely resolution: VIC need post at Nogales. If there had been military post at Nogales with a force of troops, there would have been no attempt at bank robbery With military post our people would be secure no matter how many revolu- tions occur on the other side A mil itary post would not only give us se- curity but a great deal more business. The post would draw it's supplies from Nogales. Thousands of dollars would be expended in Nogales annually five had military post, that are not cx- pended now.
 Nogales is entitled to military post Elect A. J. Doran delegate to congress and he will do his utmost to secure it. Neither of the other can didates are pledged to secure amilita. ry post for NogaIes and D6ran is.
 A vote for Doran Is vote for the security and business interests of No gales. Give 1t to him one and all. and benefit your homes, men of Nogales.

BUSINESS.

This year politics means business. In business sense, never before in the history of the United States has there been so much at stake, as now. Never before have business men taken so active part in politics as they have in this campaign. Never before have the business interests of the country united so solidly on one can didate, as they have now united on Mckinley. Arizona should not slap in the face the interests to which she looks so much for financial aid and as- sistance. Vote to save such dis grace. Vote tor Doran.

THE OASIS never meddles with dem ocratic or populistic party matters, and it's friends in the republican ranks never mix in democratic or populistic primaries or mass meetings. Dem ocrats who are democrats from prin- ciple will never accept such help in their party contests. Likewise repub- llcans who embrace that political faith from principle never go to democrats or populists for inspiration or advice in their own party affairs.

or COURSE HE CAN.

land, says: Much interest has been excited among the farmers by the pro position made at the democratic meet , ing held at Mt. Pleasant, Frederick county few days ago by James H.. Gambrill, wealthy grain dealer of Frederick City, who agreed to buy 300, 900 bushels nf wheat and guaran- teed to pay 20 per bushel therefor in the event 0f Bryan's election and the passage of free coinage bill. n Pr0spector.
 Of course he could pay Sl.29 per bushel for wheat for he would pay it in silver dollars, worth only Sl.29 per ounce. Then he would sell the wheat in the Liverpool market for forty-eight pence per bushel, at cost for transpor- tation of three pence. With the forty five pence which each bushel of wheat would net he would buy one and one- half ounces of silver bullion, which coined into American silver dollars would buy one and one-half bushels of wheat in Maryland. Or, to put the case another way: On each bushel Mir. Gambrill would clear fifteen pence about thirty cents. On the 50O,0OO bushels the profit would be Sl50,000. How is it now? Wheat is quoted in Baltimore at seyenty-six cents per bushel. That is thirty-eight pence. Out of the difference between that
  and the Liverpool price lforty-eight pence) comes the transportation, three pence leaving but seven pence per bushel profit for handling, instead of fifteen pence, as MT Gambrill would get. Seven pence are about fourteen cents, and the profit on 800, 900 bushels are now $70,0O0, as against what they would be under the system MT. Gam brill proposes by milking exchanges between gold and silver. Who would lose that ss0,0O0 difference? Why the farmers of Maryland. And while their wheat would bring them sl.29 per bushel in silver, instead Of seventy. six cents gold, now, the prices of every thing they buy would double, as such prices have here in Nogales with Mex ican money the medium of exchange. And while paying one-hundred per cent more than he now pays for every thing he consumed, the Maryland farmer would get less than sixty per cent advance in the price of his wheat. That is how the scheme of free and unlimited coinage ofsilver would work for the Maryland farmer under the philanthropical proposition of MT. Gambrill.
 The same 'nigger in the woodpile'' is apparent in the proposition of the Montana man who is alleged to have forty million dollars to buy silver at sI. 10 per ounce when Bryan is elected and free coinage bill becomes law. With silver dollars he will pay for the ounces of silver he buys and have the bullion coined into other dollars, with which to-buy other ounces of bullion, making a profit of nineteen cents on every ounce bought-l74 per cent.
 No one doubts that with free coin age silver bullion would go to Sl.29 per ounce in the United States, for it would be paid for in silver, just as it is in Mexico, now. But the Lon don price would continue to hang at about thirty pence per ounce, and American silver dollars would be quoted at fifty per cent discount just as Mexican silver dollars are now quoted And American gold would become just as scarce and quoted at q nreminm at home, as Mexican gold is now.

congress next Tuesday, want to know, and they have authorized TIE OASIS to put the inquiries for them. Here they are:
 Why did the republican county con vention fail to endorse the nomlna- tion o. A. ]. Doran, republican candi- date for congress?
 Why did the republican county con vention fail to nominate candidates for justices of the peace in Nogales precinct? Was it to leave an open field for the democratic nominees, F. J. Duffy and J. s. Taylor? What have Messrs. Duffy and Taylor done that they should receive consideration so distinguished at the hands of "a repu0- lican convention2
 Why did the republican county con yention nominate only one candidate for constable in Nogales pl ecinct: Was Fit to leave an open field for hr. T. F. Frederick, one of the democratic nomi- nees? Why should MT. Frederick be so favored by a arepublican convention?
 Why did MT. H. K. Chenoweth, re- publican nominee for the legislature, Thursday evening of last week, preside at caucus of democrats, populists and few republicans? Why did the local members of the republican county committee participate in that caucus? What right have republican com mittee or republican candidate eau cussing with democrats and populists anyway? Why did that caucus pass a resolution pledging it's participants to vote for no independent candidates for precinct ofiices?-thus shutting off the republicans present from voting, if they so wished, for D. J. Cumming the only republican in the precinct running for justice of the peace, or for James Speedy, the only republican candidate for constable.
 There are fifty straight republicans in Nogales who are republican from principle. and Nho want to vote for republicans only for office. Messrs. Chenoweth and Williams, and the other republican candidates for county offices insist that they should vote for only the nominees of the republican county convention. Those fifty re- publicans reply that they consider it fully as important that republicans should hold precinct offices as it is that county offices should be held by republicans Holding to that view they ask Messrs. Chenoweth and Will Hams, with the other eminent repnb- licans who manipulated the recent re- publican county convention, why that convention failed to nominate repub- lican candidates for precinct offices in Nogales precinct?
 There is another line of inquiry the straight republicans of Nogales pre- cinct wish put to Messrs. Chenoweth and Williams. Why did the recent republican county convention nomin- ate no candidate for supervisor from this end of the county?-and why has one of the nominees, MT. George P. Scholefeld, withdrawn from the ticket? Were these things done to give an open field to the populist nomi- nee, Mr. Win. N. Cummings? Why should Mr. Cummings be given such favor at the hands of republicans?
 There are several republicans in this end of Pima county who would have willingly accepted regular republi- can nomination for supervisor. Why did the convention deliberately ne- glect presenting some one of those gentlemen as candidate for that ooica for tha eilffraOas If renuhlicango

PENSION OFFICE CHANGES.

Useiess Detair in Adj ju~tins Claims Abol-
ished.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-TwO radical
changes in the procedure Of the pension
Office have been made. All claims for
increase, save in extraordinary cases,
hereafter will be sent direct to the
medical division of the bureau without
having to be passed upon by the board
of review as has been the custom for
years. This action is taken on the
ground that the bulk of increase cases
involve only the medical act and that
much routine detail in going through
other channels of review will be saved.
Another step in the simplification and
quicker adjudication of claims is that
hereafter there will be no necessity for
cases before the board of review being
passed upon by three or four examiners.
This has been the practice. but Com
missioner Murphy has fixed the mum.
Der of the examiners who must review
each claim at two.

MAY SHIP ARMS
Carlisle Will Grant Clearance to
Vessels Loaded With NUM-
tiOnS of War
Upon Compliance With Co..
tain FOrmalities of the
Law.
Instructions Given Upon Appl
cation by Owners of The
DauntleSS. 49,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-For the first
time since the present struggle in Cuba
began this governm ent has given per.
mission to customs official to clear for
Cuba a vessel loaded, according to her
manifest. with munitions of war and
presumably intended for the insurgent
army. The vessel in this case is the
well known and alleged filibusterer
The Dauntless, but the concession that
titled to clearance papers leaves the
situation as far as she is concerned
quite as involved as before, as the stat.
utes prescribe that before clearance shall
be granted tor any vessel bound to a
foreign port, the owners, shippers and
consigners of the cargo shall state under
oath the foreign port at which the cargo
prescribed Cor violations of this re-
luirement, including the confscation
Of the vessel.
Asked Instructions From Carlisle.
Some time Tuesday the secretary Of
the treasury received telegram from
the attorneys for the owners Of the
Dauntless at Jacksonville, stating that
the owners of the Dauntless and her
cargo would apply to the collector Of
customs at Jacksonville for clearance
to a Cuban port with cargo of arms,
stating, however, that the oath required
by the statutes would not be taken.
The question was asked whether under
these circumstances papers would be
issued. Later in the day telegram
was received from the collector at
Jacksonville stating that application to
clear the Dauntless for the port of
Nuevitas. Cuba, with a cargo of arms
had been made, and asking instruc.
tions. The secretary has replied SUBJ
stantially as follows:
If the master of the vessel and the
owners, shippers and consigners of the
cargo comply fully with all the laws
and regulations concerning the mani.
fest, and take the oaths required, you
may grant q clearance to Neuvitas.
The oaths must be taken and subscribed
in writing as required by sections 4l97.
4l98 and 42OO of the revised statutes. 4"
The port named in the application
as the destination Of the cargo, is ON
the northern coast of Cuba and is oc.
cupied by the Spanish forces. The
treasury officials, therefore, are of the
opinion that the oaths required by the
statute will not be taken.
Gone on Wrecking Tour.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec. 3l.-The
collector of customs has received i'll.
structions from the treasury depart.
ment to clear the Dauntless for Nne-
vitas Cuba. No application has been
made for clearance by the master cf
the Dauntless, which is somewhere
down the coast. w. A. Busbee, OWNER
of the boat. says it has gone on
wreck.ng tour and will not be back for
several days. He did not expect to
hear from Washington SO soon. 1t is
believed that the boat is now off on a
filibustering trip. Application has been
made by all agent of the steamer Com
lnodore for clearance with the cargo OF
arms and ammunition to Cienfuegos,
Cuba, and the application has been
wired by the collector to Washington.

QUIETLY PREPARING.

A West Superior Man Tells What the
Government Is Doing South.
ST. PAUL, Dec. 3l.-A Dispatch spe.
cial from West Superior says:
Deputy Sheriff Stack of this city has
received letter written last Tuesday
from Tampa, Fla, by Superior man
who is now travelling through the state
and the South. The correspondent
makes the statement that the govern
ment of the United States is quietly
making preparations for trouble with
Spain, and says that the war depart.
lznent to that end are getting military
supplies secretly shipped to all points
Oh the coast, extending from the east.
ern coast of Florida to New Orleans,
and that the ports of Jacksonville, St.
Augustine, Tampa, Key West, Pensa-
cola, Mobile and New Orleans have
their warehouses crammed full of stores
at the present time The letter also
asserts that Fort Jefferson. situated on
one of the Dry Tortugas islands, is full
OF provisions, arms, ammunition and
other military supplies.
Military Ensinesrs At Work.
It is said also that the government
has had some Of its military engineers
at work at all OF the ports on the
southern coast and At Key West ex-
amining their situation thoroughly and
making maps showing their weak
points. These maps, it is claimed,
have been sent to the war department
at Washington, and the erection Of
Notifications at the points considered
the most dangerously placed is likely
to commence 1t any time. General
Fitzhugh Lee, it is said, brought back
with him from Cuba maps and outlines
Of the Spanish Notifications there, and
these, too, have been submitted to
the war department at Washing
ton. Taking all of these things
into consideration the Florida cor
respondent feels absolutely certain
that the administration expects some
action favorable to the insurgents to be
taken during January at the latest, and
for that reason is getting matters in
shape in case hostilities should be the
outcome. In the South, the letter
states, it is generally believed that the
president is very much in favor of rec.
ognizing the Cubans. and that his fail.
ure to do SO when congress met was
merely ruse to get the nations legis.
lators worked up into sufficiently patri.
otic pitch. The gentleman in Florida
says that Southerners in general are
firmly of the opinion that the United
States and Spain will be involved in
war in the very near future.
