We'll, that's hard question to an

something that seems like love at first
sight, but it takes three or four years
TO determine its genuineness, and by
that time the problem and the circum-
stances are usually forgotten, and con-
sequently nothing is clearly demon

for what is right.
 Right here THE OASIS cannot refrain from expressing a regret at the position in this matter taken by Governor Murphy. Upon the whole THE OASIS has approved of the administration of the chief ex- ecutive of the territory. But here is case where he is plainly wrong. His official recommendation will return to plague him.

THE ELECTIONS.

The state elections Tuesday cer- tainly give every assurance of sat isiaction to those who support that broad policy of development of national life, and extension through out the world of American prestige and power, of which President Mckinley has become recognized as the foremost living exponent. The result of these state elections is an unmistakable endorsement of the policy of expansion upon which momentous events of the year of year ot our Lord, 1898, launch ed the nation. It shows that the people are heart and soul ill favor of the policy which will retain the opportunities for development and advancement now placed by Divine Wisdom within reach of the great republic. The great states of New York, Massachusetts, Ohio and Iowa have spoken ill no un- certain tones of that proposed policy of timidity which would furl the flag in those wonderfully rich posses sions which have become, under the law of nations, inalienable 4 merican soil.
 With the approval of the people, now registered in the result of the state elections, the administration of President Mckinley can pro- ceed to an adjustment of the pro- blems now under consideration in the new possessions with a confi- dence that the people will in 1900 continue the policy now so success fully inaugurated, by re-electing MT. Win. Mckinley to the high office in which he has done so we'll, and enable him to round off in a second term an administration which will rank in history as one of the greatest ever vouchsafed the country by Divine Providence.

Said a Nogales property owner-employed at Minas Prietas, but who has been recently har- pooned by the "push" ito the editor last Saturday night; "I have frequently thought you are too radical in dealing with those people; but want to say right now that you have never been half enough in your severity.

SHALL THE PUBLIC LANDS BE
 LEASED"

this week gives space to a com- munication from MT. George w. Atkinson of Calabasas, upon the proposition to lease the grazing lands in the territories; which proposition THE OASIS regrets to note has been advocated, in his annual report to the secretary of ths interior, by the chief executive of Arizona.
 The position of THE OASIS upon this matter has been heretofore un- equivoca1ly presented. This journal is unreservedly ol posed to a cession of the grazing lands of Arizona to Colin Cameron and his ilk.
 That is the whole proposition.
 Take the Santa Cruz valley to. day:
 Commencing near the Sonora line, we find settlers with quarter sections of land under the land laws of the United States all along the valley clear to Tubac.
 These men have their filings and have improved their places.
 Each ranche is the home of a family of free born American cit izens.
 They are all in the cattle busi- ness upon a small scale. They cultivate their lands and their cat tie roam the hills on each side of the valley.
 Suppose the proposition to lease the grazing lands becomes law.
 Why Colin Cameron, with his political pull, will lease all the outlying country, fence it up, and shut out from the grazing lands the cattle of these settlers.
 With their cattle shut off from the range their home ranches will become of no value. They will dispose of their cattle, sell of their belongings, and move away, leav- ing the whole region to Colin Cam eron and his vaqueros.
 In that way there will be driven out of the country such sterling citizens as George Beckwith, R. F. EKey, George w. Atkinson, Thos. D. Casanega. Edward Egan, w. H. Walker, Morgan R. Wise, and scores and scores more of good, first class citizens all to make room for Cameron's vaqueros.
 The business men of Nogales cannot stand the blight which the proposed policy will throw upon their town.
 From selfish point of view what does Cameron $ trade amount tor Not a drop ill the bucket beside the trade of the men. named above and their families.
 Will the business men of Nogales stand with Cameron to corral the whole of the south half of Santa Cruz county to make grazing ground for Colin Cameron's herds,

is all the same. Some people seem to
always come late and many undertake
to get O. moving trains regardless of
consequences. Another annoyance is
with people who are taking trains re-
naming on the depot platform and then
undertaking to get on the cars after the
trains start. There is a down grade
from the depot. and trains get into a
good speed within a few feet. which is
either or unheeded by those
who wait for a train to start before they
get on, which often causes unexpected
performances on the part or
such passengers. Another dangerous
thing is the practice of people accom-
panying their friends on the cars and
remaining until the train starts. Ihey
begin to get off on the same platform on
which others are trying to get on While
the train is in motion, and this causes
confusion and danger to both parties.
They do not want to be carried down to
Gregson Springs or Butte, and cannot
stop the train, therefore, the result is
they take desperate chances and jump
Off the train anywhere within a block OF
the depot. which has often resulted in
skinned faces and shins, and then they
blame the railroad company for their
carelessness. The railroad men. police
men and others who are familiar with
the situation are always on the vigil for
those who take their life in their own
hands in this n Very fortunately
no serious accidents have happened. but
there have been scenes of people getting
on and off moving trains near this depot
which We're enough to freeze a mans
blood in his veins. What can we do to
prevent this practice? Nothing. We
run our trains as near on time as it is
possible for a railroad to do. and make
as many stops as our time card calls for
and the patrons request. If we held a
train 10 minute over time there are some
people who would still be late. and there
YOU are. Persons who are going to take
passage or g train should get on the
cars before they start. and the persons
who are not going away should not get
on, for the reason there is not time
enough for them to get off after the
trains start"
