The one printed at THE OASIS office is as handsome as highly finished photograph; the other IS just a blotch of ink on a sheet of paper.

In it's usually self gratulatory style the Vidette of last week as- serts that it will not abuse people who don't agree with it. To un- derstand how far that goes the reader has only to turn to page r of Sonora Ilustrado' and read how Mir. Southworth slammed the merchants of Magdalena because they wouldn't contribute to his fake, or recall how Mir. King roasted the Nogales postmaster be- cause he simply enforced postal regulations. The two young men now jointly steering the fortunes of the Vidette are models of iournalis- tic propriety.

LAsr year cotton ties were on

LAST year cotton ties were on the free list and farmers in the south paid SI.35 per bundle for them. This year the Dingley act puts upon them a forty per cent tax, yet they cost the cotton grow CT but seventy-hve centsper bundle. The home manufacturer has to sell his output and accepts such prices as he can get The importer had only limited quantitities to sell, and he commanded his own price. Without protection there was no home manufacturer.

How Stuart Divided Up the
Money He Gotfor Them.

San Francisco, March 23-Stuart's
Carson manager, w. K. WheelOck,
when asked for an accurate statement
about the kineotscope receipts and
their disposition said:
The sum of S $685. Sc represents eX
actly the full share OF the profits that
Mr.. Stuart has already received or
will receive from the workings Of the
machines. Eleven thousand dollars
was paid in cash by Rector owner of
the kaleidoscope, to Stuart who divided
it equally between the fighters and
himself After that Rector takes
everything. He now has the films in
New York developing them, and isn't
hampered by any partners or any
thing of the sort
And you man TO say" h" was ask
ed. that Stuart does not gat as much
as $4,000 out OF The privilege"
That's right" he replied. THE
kaleidoscope people came to him with
big propositions, one of them a
quarter or a million if he would agree
to hold the fight back for a fine day,
or take some Of the chances with them
But to all Of these proposals he stated
that he had been trying for three
years to bring Corbett and FitZsim-
mons together, ana mat he WASH
! going to delay the thing an hour. He
said too. that he Intended to look or

TIE main thing was to keep faith
with the public and get the men to
fight. The reason, therefore, why the
k~inetoac0re people had to pay so little
for the privilege was thatthey took all
the chances"
On the top Of this statement Brady
says that some time before the fight q
corporation was formed called the
"Veriscope Company" and that there
were four stockholders in the concern
Rector, Stuart, Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons, the two former holding the
major portions OF the stock between

II get tceir percentage out Of every
contract made for the pictures though
what hat percentage is Brady refuses
to state.
Julian tells practically the same
story. 1t is very we'll known that a
few days before the fight the Aust raj
ian's manager heard that Corbetts
stock in the concern had been increas-
ed and that he at once went to Stuart
ceive a proportinate raise. Why
Wheelock should attempt to make the
public believe hal stuart has DO
claim on the receipts of the kineto-
scope is inexplicshle.
