THEN AND NOW.

When Grover Cleveland and a democratic congress were elected iD November, 1892, Nogales was thriv- ing, hustling town-none better any. where. Within three weeks after Cleveland's inauguration in March 1893, the town withered and shriveled like field of young corn before black frost. And the blight con tinued just as long as Cleveland re- mained president. But within three weeks after McKinley's inauguration the town commenced to pick up. trade improved and business general ly grew brighter. Now new build- lngs are going up on all sides, improve ment generally is the order of the day and every body Is making money The town has started upon another era of prosperity which will last un- til the American people are again siezed with fit of mental alteration and put into power once more the destructive, free trade democracy.

NOT THUNDERSTORM IN THE LEAST

In commenting upon the meeting called last week to organize commer. cial club or board of trade the Vidette said:
 Some there were who seemed to misunderstood the nature of the meeting and brought up road build ing and old debt payments, but then their talk didn't count and the busi- ness of the meeting went right along. The next meeting will be had when the committee on bylaws reports.
 The object of the meeting was not misunderstood in the least, and the talk made served the purpose for which 1t was made, which was to pre- vent permanent organization at that time; and to have such organization properly matured and elaborated be- fore giving it permanence. Of course it would have given the main guy a good deal of prestige could he have gone east the following evening as president of the Nogales Board of Trade. and had he been designated to fill such position he would have used it for all it was worth. Had he gone to work right he could have had all he wanted. But he made a mess of it at the start, and was consequently thwarted in his object. The talk made wide comment of the Vidette) succeeded admirably in leaching the object at which it aimed. It did more; it wrung from the chair man an admission that he had been mainly instrumental in throw ing upon the town the taint of repudiation and dishonesty, by induc- ing the tin horn governor to veto a just and equitable bill which would have enabled the corporation to pay it's honestly incurred debts.

PRosPEcToRs ALSO COMPLAIN.

One of the curious features about civilization in the southwest is the fact that scores of little mountain valleys have of late years been cut away by the torrential streams and made merely wastes of sand, where once were smiling meadows. The ex- planation generally given for this is that cattle have eaten away the long gl ass that once protected the meadows from the rush of flood water. What ever may have been the cause, how ever, thousands of acres of arabic land has thus been taken from the farmer. This condition is specially to be remarked on the upper Salt river and in the valleys of Yayapai county. .-StOckman.

NoeALEs' DISGRACE.


 which came up at that gathering TIE OASIS alluded to the money due the
 attorneys who conducted the case
 against the Nogales de Elias land
 grant for the people of the town,
 which remains unpaid 1t is just as
 well to present that matter clearly
 for public consideration.
 When the land court was organized under an act of congress giving juris- diction in land grant cases the people of Nogales felt that they must pro- tect their own interests before the court by employing competent legal talent. At public meeting called for the purpose committee was ap- pointed to conduct the necessary negotiations. That committee con- sisted of F. G. Hermosillo, Louis Pro- to, G. A. Avery and Captain J. J. Noon. They engaged MT. T. F. Par ker, of St. Louis. for a retaining fee of one thousand dollars to be paid when the supreme court of the United States should render judgement in favor of the people and against the grant claimants. The retainer was raised by contributions and it was expressly agreed. at public meeting, that the town incorporation, which was then to be created, should assume the final fee when 1t should become due, Messrs. Hermosillo. Proto, Avery and Noon giving the attorney their joint and individual note to secure payment, with a fair contract that the town of Nogales should pay them the money necessary to take up the note at maturity. There is on file a petition to the town board, signed by many prominent citizens and taxpay- CTS. praying the town to carry out that agreement.
 More than year ago the supreme court of the United States rendered decision in the Nogales de Elias case, oyerthrowing the title of the grant claimants and vasting title in the United States government, which will in the near future give title, in the regular way, to the owners of the property. Under the terms of the contract and note given to secure the same two thousand dollars the at- torneys are now about one year over- due. Collection can be forced from Messrs. Hermosillo, Proto, Avery and Noon.
 Beside the debt due Mir Parker, Mir. Proto, by authority of the committee, paidsome four hundred dollars in secur- ing evidence and legal opinions of pro- minent Mexican attorneys upon Mexi- can law bearing upon the case, which went far toward securing the favor able decision. That money he paid from his own funds and should be re- imbursed. It is part of the just debt owed by the town, which was agreed should and would be paid.
 To enable the town to carry out it's agreement one of the provisions of the bill vetoed last winter by Cover nor Franklin legalized that just in- debtedness and authorized the coun- cil to levy tax to procure funds for it's liquidation. To the lasting dis grace of the town that tin horn exc cutive interposed his veto at the be- hest of about dozen disgruntled in- dividuals who opposed it. One of the remarkable features of the matter consists in the fact that some of those very individuals had signed the petition praying to town board to assume and pay the indebtedness. Tn that way they put upon the town

ment of Captain General weyler. but
although for the moment he remains at

lieving that his resignation has been
received by the premier to be accepted
or not as the latter deems best ac-
cording to the circumstances of the
moment.
In the meantime Captain General
"eyler has sent a telegram to the
premier recommending that municipal
elections be held Immediately in Cuba.
This may be the precursor of other con-
ciliatoBy measures on his part but Can
tain General Weyler's antecedents are
not such as to inspire confidence among
the people Of the island with regard to

long at his post in view of the path
that will have to be followed for a gen.
