THEY DIE HARD.

The push" are making a most futile and ridiculous struggle against the inevitable. On Tuesday they sent to the Arizona Gazette a tele- gram which appeared in that paper on the 22d, under the caption "Chenoweth all right" reading as follows:
 NoGALEs, Ariz.. Nov. 2I.-The telegram reported to have been sent by Perry Heath to lien T. Bird stating that Chenoweth had been removed was a fake. No such telegram was ever sent or received, but 1t was manufactured to mislead the friends of Collector Chenoweth. The secretary of the treasury has given no indication as how be will decide, but MT. Chenoweth has no fears of the result, and the people of Arizona had better wait for re- liable information before they make up their minds on this subject.
 Nobody yer said that Perry Heath, or anyone else, had tele- graphed Allen T. Bird or THE OASIS a word with reference to the removal of Chenoweth
 However, THE OASIS did say, last Saturday. that Collector Hoey had wired that he would take charge of the custom house at No gales on December 18th.
 Since then a letter has been re- ceived from Collector Hoey convey ing the information that he has been notified to come to Washington on December Ist to receive from the treasury department final instruc- tions and will come to Nogales from Washington and take charge on December 18th.
 There's the whole situation in 
 Why so persistent an effort to de- ,efve the public should be attempt ed is past all comprehension.
 "The jig is up" and the push" gain nothing by denying it.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF NooaLRs. ARIZONA.
WHAT DID HE MEAN

A correspondent at Rollin has sent THE OASIS clipping from the editorial column of this journal of a week ago. It was the leader with the announcement that the removal ot Collector Chenoweth had been made final. It will be recollected that there was a long, white space filling nearly a column. Tn this space the gentleman had skillfully drawn several pictures. The first was re, resentation of cavorting steer, branded BEEF" under meath which was written Crossing International boundary into the United States" The second repre- sented bag upon which was writ ten "Jute ore sacks, in bond. Next came big official envelope bearing the legend Civil Service examination, Official Business, ," and addressed to the "Collector of Customs, Nogales, Arizona. Then appeared the figure of Chinaman, labeled "Contraband Chinaman, crossing into Nogales, Arizona, price, SIoo."

ONE BENEFIT r.oM STATEHOOD.

One of the great benefits which
 which would result from statehood
 for Arizona would be the permanent
 retirement from politics of class of
 men who make out to keep in the
 political swim by continual iteration
 and reiteration of lot of romantic
 fairy tales about their wonderful in-
 fiuence both at home and at tue east. Depending upon their own ability, as they would have to do were Arizona state, they could not secure following any greater than that controlled by a dog running down the street with tin can tied to his tail. But by glib relation of their close and intimate connection with senator's and con gressmen--andeven with presidents and cabinet ministers-they i'm press lot of stupid and fat witted chumps with their importance, and draw about them quite following by promising all sorts of things through their .'inaooence at Wash ington. And with superabund- ant gall they go to Washington and regale senators and congressman with entrancing stories of their con- sequence ann importance at home. Of course any senator or congress- man has right to mix in the af- fairs of territory, and they do so for this gentry chiefly to get rid of them.
 But were Arizona state her senators and congressman would know all the men of real worth their constituents, and other statesmen would not interfere with their judgment in such matters. The representatives of Arizona would know who among their fol- lowers had rendered faithful ser vice ani who had shirked-they would know who were fitted for preferment and who deserved itnot. Just in that particular alone state hood would be great blessing.
The oasis., 1899-11-25

THE push" are frantic ally denying that H. K. Chenoweth has been removed as collector of customs at Nogales. There is in possession ot the editor of THE OASIS a telegram from Wm. H. Hoey, at Muncie, Indiana, which reads Will take charge Decembar 18th" There is one thousand dollars in THE OASIS office to bet that is genuine tele- gram, decision of the bet to be left to Charley Holler, manager of the Western Union telegraph office at Nogales.
The oasis., 1899-11-25

THE ex-collector of customs at Nogales seems to have got lost i'll the shuffle. His case was finally disposed of by the secretary of the treasury on November 18th. He is not in Washington and no one knows where he is now.
The oasis., 1899-11-25

THERE is one thousand dollars, gold, in the hands of THE OASIS editor to bet that Harry K. Cheno- weth has been removed as collector of customs at Nogales. Or any part of that sum will be bet. The "push" should now "put up or shut up"

A SHAMEFUL SENSATION.

One or the most Shameful occur
 ences of the day has been the wa, in which sensational newspaper
 and sensational people have jump
 ed upon Admiral Dewey for tran
 sfering to his wife the home il
 Washington resented him by the
 American people. It seems that
 the transfer to Mrs. Dewey was but
 a step in a series of transfers by
 which the title to the property was
 vested in the only son of the great
 admiral, to whom 1t would naturally
 pass in part only at the death of bis
 father; and Mrs. Dewey desired the
 title should completely pass to the son now, with 1t her dover in the property. So the admiral first deeded the property to a trustee. Upon the following day the trustee gave a deed to Mrs. Dewey, and upon the third day Mrs. Dewey passed title unreservedly to George Goodwin Dewey, the admiral's son. Mrs. Dewey went farther than that, making will by the provision of which George Goodwin Dewey be- comes her heir, to succeed at her death to all her estate, the income from which is about twice that of the admiral, including his salary as tue highest naval officer in the American service.
 Now all these transfers were a private matter concerning the Dewey family alone But before they had been completed-immediately upon the transfer to Mrs. Dewey-yellow journals all over the country be- rated the admiral soundly for "giv- ing away the gift of the American people. 7 That it grieved and pain ed the great naval hero is beyond and he is quoted as having made the indignant declara- ton that could he dispose of the and return the purchase money to the individual donors he would gladly do so.
 Had the transfer stopped with the title in Mrs. Dewey there would have been nothing out of the way, and the outcry raised was perfectly It was a graceful act for Admiral Dewey to pass to his wife the title of his home. It was given him by the American people for his home as long as he should live. When the widow of distin- guished general bee me his wife it became her home, and by law she became vested with an estate there in Had the admiral desired she should possess full title it was no body's business. It was dirty low down piece of scandal monger- ing to say anything about it.
 But to avoid her vested estate ac- quired by marriage, making any future trouble in transmission of the title to his natural heir, keeping q t,a r,,,,,,a-4,, |, fha Da,vax, ta,r1iIxr

The Dead Irishman.

Some Irish body snatchers had ri6ed
a grave and hid their booty in corner
Of the churchyard, when it occurred to
half tipsy fellow, who had been watch
ing them unobserved, that 1t would be
pleasanter to be driven back TO the near
est town than to walk. He accordingly
secreted the dead man under hedge
a2d lay down in his place. He was duly
transferred to cart, but when about
half the journey was over one Of the
men who had touched his hand scream
ed to his friend. Good heavens, the
body is warm!'
Hereupon, in deep voice, the sup
posed dead man remarked. eff you had
been where I've been for the last two
days, you d be warm tool"

ENGLISH RED TAPE.
II Took q Broken Leg 10 Get the
Chair Repaired.

OHolE iACPeNiA
1t is stated that one morning recent
IL young fellow who had Just secured
a clerkship in government office was
considera oily startled by little scene
that he witnessed. An elderly man, one
of the senior clerks in the room, sud
denly rose from his desk, dragged the
comfortable chair Oh which he had
been sitting into the middle Of the
room, seized a poker and attacking the
chair with great vigor succeeded in
breaking one of its legs. When it was
done, the official gave sigh Of relief
and flung the chair into corner OF the
room The budding junior s first thought
was that his senior had suddenly taken
leave of his senses. and he almost ex-
pected that MS colleagues would put
bin under restraint. But to his aston
ishment the other clerks hardly raised
their eyes while the work Of destruction
was IN progress. Before the Office work
was over the newcomer sought informa-
ton from one Of his fellow clerks
"Can you tell me, said he. "why
Mr. Dash carried on in that eztraordi-
nary fashion? l mean. of course, when
be broke a perfectly sound leg off the
chair in which he had been sitting. "
"Oh, that was all right replied the
other with a meaning laugh. ga caster
hao come off one Of the legs Of that
chair, and. you know, my lords will
not provide US with new casters; they
will attend to nothing less than broken
leg. So Dash had to break one Of the
legs to get his chair put right at the
public expense. London Standard.

a FAMOUS PLATE.
the Frat Engraving Was Printed
on n Laundress' Bundle.


Two groups of tourists We're standing
in the Pitt palace before the large plate
Of pure silver upon which Finiguerra.
the great master of early engraving.
had depicted his lovely Madonna and
Child" in trelhsed arbor covered with
roses, An Italian lady was telling her
friends in an undertone the charming
anecdote of Finiguerra and the laun-
dress.
The artist, il seems. IN mastering the
new and difficult art Of engraving upon
metal. had acquired singularly keen
eye and delicate touch. and he also pos
sessed number of very fine and sharp
instruments, which he used in his
work
Being a kindly man ne sometimes
placed both his sure hand and his ine
tools at the service Of his friends and
neighbors in performing for them some
of the simpler operations Of surgery,
until he acquired quite areputation for
his skill in doctoring their hurts.
One day a poor laundress who had
been washing clothes, in wringing out
q garment in which a needle had been
carelessly left, ran it deeply into her
hand. Worse yet, it broke off in the
wound and part remained imbedded
il the flesh. She was in much pain.
and on her way back from the stream
where she had been washing she stop
ped at the house Of the artist and was
admitted.
Entering his studio she hastily set
down her wet and heavy bundle ard
held out the injured hand, begging his
assistance. Finiguerra left his work 10
help her, and after long and delicate
manipulation extracted the broken nee
die. The woman thanked him and
turned to go, lifting her bundle from
its resting place.
Then he saw that she had set it upon
one Of his engravings. Like all Others
at that time, it was plate Of engraved
metal, complete in itself, and regarded
as a single and sufficient picture, exact
y as if it had been painting.
But as the damp bundle was raised
the quick eye of Finiguerra saw that it
had received an impression from the
engraved picture beneath, and his quick
mind seized at once the suggestion OF
the possibility Of indefinite reproduc-
ton from a single original So that
from the kindness of great artist to
poor washerwoman sprang the discov-
cry which has placed the beautiful
products OF the engraver's art within
the reach of all Of Us today Youth s
Companion.
