OFFICIAL PAPER OF MORALES, ARIZONA.
THE LAST YEAR OF THE CENTURY

Ere these pages greet the eye of very many of the numerous readers of THE OASIS old Father Time will have turned his glass for its 1eeting sands to measure another year-the last year of the century. It is a century which has been fraught with great good for humanity. In no other year have the material and moral advancement of the human race gone so far, nor with strides so great and marvellous. For of the many teeming years so portentous, with great events crowding so close ly upon one another, none has con- veyed more to the struggling and uplifting mass of humanity than has the one of which but a single day now remains. It has been filled
 
 with blessings for the world, for our country, for our territory and for our town. Along with the sweet hath come bitterness also, but upon the whole, taking into considera- ton all the items and casting just and impartial balance, it has been a year for good.
 In our own immei eiiate surround ings there has been great advance ment for the town of Nogales, the county of Santa Cruz and the ter ritory of Arizona. The article upon the first page but half tells the story of the material development of the town. It will take but few months to show that the trial and travail to which our people have been during the year subjected have wrought to its moral advancement.
 But it is not of the past that this article is to treat-rather let it be tor the future. Upon the threshold of the fast year Of the century No gales can look forward with con fdence to a year of solid and mate rial prosperity that in its import ance and manifold results for good will dwarf into insignificance the hitherto unparalleled year now draw ing to a close. The development of her tributary territory in both Ari- zona and Sonora, goes forward with great leaps and bounds. The teem- ing mineral wealth of the rock ribbed mountains on all sides is be- ing tapped at a score of vents from which will flow steady streams of prosperity into the lap of the fortun- ate city standing in the gateway of traffic between the two great and

minister, Mr.. WI. is about to leave for
Spain to present his credentials as min
lister to that country. in addition to re-
timing his position here. The appoint-
ment was made some time ago, but ow-
Ing to the war with Spain it would have
been anomalous for the minister to serve
at the capitals of both bcilgercnt coun-
tries. He therefore established Il secre-
tary a Madrid as charge. but now that
the war is closed he goes in person 10 pre-
sent his credentials TO the Queen regent
China has usually combined the mission
IA Washington and Madrid, as a minister
here could look after the many Chinese In

There is also a large Chinese population
in the Philippines. At present. however,
the minister's trip has no political sig
niitcance. Spain has not shared in the
European movement on Chinese territory
Mr.. WI will be accompanied by a num-
her of officials. but Madame WI will re-
main here. The minister called at the
