THE OASIS is credibly informed

THE OASIS is credibly informed that MT. w. E. Pullian, special agent of the U. S. treasury, is negotiating for a suitable location for offices for the Nogales custom house close to the line and close to Morley avenue-where the custom house should be located. It was by jobbery the office was put in its present inconvenient place under a democratic administration, and by jobbery was 1t retained there under an alleged republican administra. ton.

WHEN everything is all sifted down, as will be the case in the near future, some people may recognize the wisdom of adoption of live and let live policy. En- deavoring to run out of the country" men they could not con- trol or cerce has brought to a sad plight several men who once faced a very promising future.

THE lot of the Arizona news paper man seems beset with diff hculties. MT. A. F. Banta, of the "Pick and Drill, at Prescott, has been writing history as made by the early Arizona pioneers, which although very interesting no one will read, and he has consequently suspended publication of his paper. On the other hand THE OASIS has been presenting Arizona history as made in Santa Cruz county, in the present year of our Lord, which everybody reads;, but the worthies who have made the malodorous record want the editors scalp.

IN THEIR new fight, sprung up- on them by the Baca float grant, the settlers on the Santa Cruz are united and determined.
The oasis., 1899-10-21

IN HIS communication to THE OASIS published last week, Lieut. enant H. o. Flipper points out that the Baca grant claimants cannot take away from settlers land upon which they have filed, because such lands are not vacant, and the grant claimant can take vacant land only. But if the grant claimants can get ali the range land surrounding the lands upon which filings have been made they can very soon make va cant the land the settlers now oc- cupy and secure possession of the entire valley; for really the valley lands are of but little value save as "home ranches" for cattle men. If the range can be fenced up by the grant claimants the settlers upon the valley lands will be compelled to move out and their holdings will be practically worthless. The Baca grant claimants should be estopped by the surveyor general on the ground that they failed to locate their claim upon the land within the thlee years required by law. Their plea that their man Wright
 son was kept from examining and locating the lands is very tenuous. Ii there was any foundation to that claim why did they iail to join issues against the Calabasas grant and make such a showing3 To man up tree 1t looks very much as fl the reason why they did not was that the same men who were be- hind the Calabasas grant are now behind the Baca grant.

tions in the. Philippine. situation
This. belief is. based on. the latest
reports from General. Otis, who
intimates. that he will not pursue
an aggressive campaign until re-
Inducements reach him.
General Miller is supposed to
have sent an expedition against
Cebu, the third city in size and
Importance in the Philippine
group and the capital of the
island of the same name. The
department officials expect to
:. hear at any time that Cebu is in

forces, but it IS impossible to pre-

city will be preceded by. a battle.

Otis is now decided. He has no
immediate object in extending
his front, which already covers
twenty-five miles Probably this
would be impracticable against
European troops, but it is safe
enough in. the case of the Fill
pinos. The latter would never
have shown the courage and e,t2,-

would be folly to drive the scat

of the concern are strangely missing.

business of this bureau extended all
over the United States, although it
had only occupiedit its quarters in the
cotton exchange for two months.
Whites Bureau was in many re.

dends to depositors. Il protested
to be legitimate and to be an old es
tablished concern. 1t protested to
have the strongest kind of recon-
mendations from banks and bankers,
paid out dividends to depositors
presumably from the money placed
on deposit in order to lure larger
gudgeons. Finally, its hacker took
alarm and disappeared.
THE OPERATORS.
Whites bureau was operated by
two young men who went under the
name of Hyman. One of them gave
the name of G. Ii. Lyman, and he is
understood to have been the &C. III.
White whose bureau the concern
purported to be. The offices are
handsomely furnished and are parti-
toned off into smaller rooms. Many
typewriters were employed, and
when the business was first estab-
lished an enormous quantity OF let
tiers aud circulars was sent forth.
The finn inserted advertisements
in newspapers all over the country
promising that Whites bureau would
make money for anybody who would
send his cash ON to New York The
advertisements were as alluring as
green goods circulars. 1t is believed
that Whites bureau was affiliated in
some way with the Franklin syndi
cate. The police are looking for the
promoters OF the concern. VIM. +.

interested in connection with the
Franklin syndicate are still missing.
