 Your desire to build up Nogales, neighbor, is very laudabie; but you take your inspiration from the wrong crowd. Your great shouter, Eph- raim, has declared time and again that his most earnest desire is to sink Nogales. Scores of people will testify that he has asserted an intention of establishing store at Agua Zarca. where he would compel all employees of his mine to trade, and "any man buying one dollars worth of goods at Nogales would be discharged A score of witnesses will testify that Pascholy has declared that he was Tin Nogales to make money only and don't want to build up the town.

THE street improvements carried out by the town board have added greatly to the appearance of Nogales and the projected payments will still further enhance the appearance of the town. The kickers should feel ashamed of themselves every time they look at the streets. Had they prevailed the town would have been disncorporated, and thestreets would have yet been a series of gullies and foot-traps.

to draw trade, that there are no mines tributary to the town and nothing from which to build city Others still, stand around the streets croaking to strangers about the town, and endeavor to dissuade them from investing here. The appearance of THE OASIS is case in point. When the paper was established at Nogales there were numerous croakers who predicted failure. The burden of their cry was that "Nogales is no place to run a newspaper. Several men have tried, but they have always failed" Nevertheless TIE OASIS has been decided success, and it has reached out for business in all directions. Moreover it's business has been legitimate newspaper work and job printing It has not had to combine anything else with it's own proper work and enter into competi- tion with it's patrons. Growing from small beginning it has now the fn- est newspaper and job printing plant in Arizona, and with the other improvements now in con- temptation it will soon be the largest. It never turns out anything poor, and it commands prices which are always commanded by excellent work.
 Nogales offers opportunities for numerous first class enterprises, in the hands of men who have push, nerve and courage. Men who will reach out and draw trade. THE OASIS is not the only instance. Wit ness how Hogan's blacksmith aud machine.shop has grown and prospered until now he has two fine shops, one on each side of the line. Note how TheO. Gebler, the pioneer hardware dealer, reaches out for trade, and how he continually adds to his machinery, tools and stock to meet the demands upon him. The same can be said of Geo. B. Marsh. Observe how Roy & Titcomb reach out all over Sonora, SinalOa, Lower California and South ern Arizona for trade, and get it. Observe the Arizona Commercial Co. Note how Captain L. w. Mix has worked for years to form financial connections which have now put him into close connection with some of the heaviest capitalists in Europe, in the conduct of vast enter prises. And Proto Bros, Fleischer Bros, Ramon Vasquez, J. T. Brickwood, Escalada Brothers, and others who have come to Nogales to stay and are continually working to build up the town, put ting their profits into improvements, adding to the taxable property, and doing all they can to build up. Take the new firm Of Harlow & Gowan; see how they are reaching out to draw business, build up themselves and build up the town. And all these men stand for the towns paying it's just debts.
 The last sentence points the divid- ing line between the Vidette and TIE OASIS. The former paper is identifi- ed with the reactionary element who have stood against the town and it's fair reputation. Ephraim, Pascholy X Co.,, not only have no interest in the welfare of the town, but they have stood and still stand for the dis honest repudiation by the town of it's just debts; and the Vidette stands with them. But for interposition of an outrageous veto by the worst gov ernor Arizona ever had, Nogales would now stand purged of that dis
