Boas and tippets Of white fox and all
White furs are worn by every woman who
aspires to be well dressed. The white is
wonderfully becoming to any but impossi-
bic compilations, and one is grateful in
winter TO anyone who wears light things.
There is always sad side to the picture
though White furs keep clean in the
country, but in town they. OF course, do
not. The best way to clean them at home
Is to rub them with -four heated in the
oven, then to shake out the flour and rub
again with fresh handful. until the fur
has regained its pristine whiteness. The

The Cotton Markets.
NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

|
! New York, Nov. 23.-The public did
not manifest much interest in to-day's
cotton market, and while there were
several spurts OF general speculation
for professional account, operations in
the aggregate We're diSappontinEly
small. The undertone of the market.
however, was strong, and prices from
opening to closing were considerably
above the final figures of the previous
day. The feature of the news was Il
crop estimate by Neill, while the fea-
ture of the trading was the liquidation
of several January long interests and
the accumulation of extensive lines of
May by the same parties. The market
opened steady, with prices showing an
advance of 3GlS points. The opening
figures proved about the lowest of the
session. The bulls were reinforced by
small receipts at the ports and by an
estimate by Neill of $500, 600 to $780,,
coo bales. The Liverpool market ad-
vanced upon receipt OF this estimate.
Our market naturally, was strength
ened decideduy by the favorable turn
of affairs in the English market, par
ticularly as the advance there led to
foreign buying here. The South fur
nished an abundance of bullish infor-
nation. Receipts were expected to
drop off rapidly during the next ten
days. as planters were selling very lit
tie cotton. The New England spinners
and exporters, according to Southern
bids The local market showed n spe-
cial degree of strength in the after
noon. when the Weekend figures made
their appearance. The close was steady,
with prices . TO IL points higher.

SUSPICIOUS sCHARACTERs ALWAYS SUSPICIOUS.

We are glad to learn that our eteemed contemporary has at last got onto the pay roll. It com menced its goldbug career at Ari- zola, this county, seven years ago, but its voice was not heard by the cashier of the gold syndicate and 1t starved out. It then moved to Benson, but seems not to have been within hailing distance of the syn dicate's business office at that point, and again starved out. It then moved to Nogales, and from that high altitude, the echo of its fog horn seems to have reached the ear of MT. Hanna. Tis well; the lab- orer is worthy of his hire, and we are pleased to know that our friend Bird can now eat three meals day day and pay for the hat he talks through. Florence Blade.

Now "the push" are talking of putting up three thousand dollars to start another paper in Nogales. Whats the matter with the Vi- dette? Could any other newspaper do any better for them2 It is not the lack of newspaper, but the general cussedness of their cause which is the main trouble. Had they been honest and "toted fair" they wouldn't have had the opposi- tion of THE OASIS, and were they to start in the line city such news paper as the Los Angeles Times it would not help them out of their dilemma,

IN HERMosILLo this week a gentleman from Texas related a story which is both new and good. An old Texas woolgrower was a great free trader, always arguing for free trade, free wool, etc. After the Wilson bill had passed, under Cleveland, when wool had fallen to four cents a pound, he came into town one day, and to circle of protectionists with whom he had so frequently argued he made this con- fession: "I voted for free wool. That's what l did. And l have come within four cents of getting it."
The oasis., 1900-05-19

BY AN oversight mention was last week omitted of the fact that THE OASIS was entering upon the eighth year of its life, having been founded in 1893, and the first issue appearing upon May oth of that year. In all the seven years ot its publication the paper has grown continually in public favor, and 1t is widely recognized as the best and most successful weekly news paper in Arizona. It enters another year of usefulness with a feeling of profound gratitude to the public whose pati onage has made its success possible.
The oasis., 1900-05-19

A FEDERAL judge in Chicago has decreed that the Associate Press is common carrier and must serve news to all papers desiring and paying for it. With that de- cision valuable exclusive francises disappear all over the country. In many cities the exclusive Assoc iated Press franchise of newspapers has been the major part of their assets. Now that is gone.
