Of literary offerings, so rich in thought,
so entertaining in character, or so varied
in the method of presenting valuable
instruction as has been given by Presi-
dent w. II. Richards in the past sea-
son and half. He has put into this
work all the vast resources of q we'll
stored mind and cultivated taste, and
the results he is achieving must be
gratifying to HIM. They are certainly
highly appreciated by the public. His
labor is labor of love merely, but he
performs Id with rs much energy, pa
tIence and fidelity "a Ii he were In re-
celpt OF 81 SOC year as compensation.
He is level headed and wonderfully
even tempered never disconnected by
mishaps or disappointments, never un'
duly elated by signal triumphs. Men
like Prof. Richards are rare, and any
community fortunate enough to po-

prize him beyond rubies, It is hoped

lCOMNUNtC ,TtDl A Public Problem.

MORALES, Arizona. June 27, 1900.
 To THE EDITOR OF HE OASIS
 DEAR SIR:-Yuur editorial two
 weeks ago, regarding the county in- debtedness and the necessity of earn
 est preparation for the election of county officers next fall, is in line with some problems that have concerned me for several weeks. Since coming 10 reside in Ncgales, and specially since entering upon the performance of district attorney, 1 have studied county interests with much care.
 The approaching county election is Of intense importance to every man interested in this county, whether he is now taxpayer, or prospective tax payer, or only an active middle man in the important business transactions of the county. We have population ID this county of possibly 1000 souls, all told. Of this total, only small number must bear the total taxation. We are saddled with bonded iudebt- eduess from old Pima county. which will run from Sl35, 900 to Sl65,O0 We will have. after location of the county seat, certain unavoidable expenses, in providing suitable court house and jail. It is only reasonable to an. ticipate a funded indebred edness on this county of Sl75, 900. Annually, from taxes, we must meet the custom ary county expenses-the salaries of the board of supervisors, district at tOIDey, treasurer, the fees of sheriff ard conslatulary, the support of the schools, the expenses of the court and juries, support of prisoners, making and repairing of county roads-and iu addition to this normal and county expenses, the taxes must pay the in- terest on The heavy debt, and create a sinking fund for the ultimate pay ment of its principal

must be clear that only faithful,
 honest, and able administration will
 keep us from dangerous financial
 straits. With the best possible man.
 agement, we shall have strugel, l;
 with lax, or careless management, we
 shall have disaster. Even already, we
 find men in Tucson and Phoenix in- turing us, by the mere mention of our
 heavy debt. It is true, as was quoted from business man in TIE OASIS two weeks ago, that legitimate enter prises have failed within the last few weeks, from the discouragementg given capital, owing to fear of county mls. management and heavy taxes. It is pusilanimOus in an outsider to try to defect capital from us, by raising hypocriticdl fears as to our county stability-especially when the out sider lives in glass house-but with an indignant repud.ation of islander of our county, and of the town of No gales, we have nevertheless the seri- ous proble of county financial straits tu face.
 This brings me to the reason urging me to write this public letter. The three men who shall be elected mem- bers of the board of supervisors next fall are the most important county officers who will be elected in this county in years They will have i'm portant contracts to let; they will have the most important plans to make looking toward the ultimate payment of our bonded indebtedness. They will have the temptation to ex and must meet it with economy. We must have an honest board-that goes without the saying. But we need more than honesty-we must have in tbis next board, more than will be nee ed again in years, backbo and hard. headed ness. This question rises above per sonal differences, and party lines. No question uf republicauism, democracy Or pOpulism enters the election of board of peryisors-it is a question of hard head, back bone, and incor- Tuptible honesty. The office offers 1 mall pay and very hard work. It | needs much ,elf-sacrifice on the part | Jf the right men, but the sacrifice | must be made, and the taxpayers, and interested citizens Of this county must begin even now to select aud | D.an for the election of the next board | )f supervisors.

Tungsten, obtained for the first time in pure
specimens by reduction of the oxide by alum
mum, has been studied by Prof. r. Staven
s-hagen, of Berlin. The metal is hard, slightly
darker than zinc and is infusbe in the electric
arc. 1t is practically insoluble in acids, even in
aqua regia, although it is dissolved slowly in
fused caustic potash This metal, although
rare, is of much practical interest on account of
the hardness it imparts to steel.

Poisoning by eggs in any and all forms is the
curious personal idiosyncrasy reported to the
British Medical journal. Even when the egg
taken is in the minutest quantity, a healthy
young lady suffers rigors and vomiting, the
tongue soon becoming parched and dry and the
throat sore, with severe headache and pain in
the back. The symptoms continue from few
hours to two days They appear even when the
egg is disguised in other food, and a small par
ticle of the white placed on the skin produces
nettle-rash.
