IT IS with no small degree Of sa- tisfaction that the fact is noted that the Special Century Edition ot THE OASIS. upon which work of prepar- ation has recently commenced. IS meeting with much favor in Son ora, the manifold riches and re- sources of which great state the work is projected to exploit.
 Business men of all classes, mer- chants, manufacturers, mining m >n. catilemen and others, are interested in the success of the work and are giving it every encouragement and assistance. Mir. Bird and MT. Bor- ton are now working at Hermosillo, where they expect to finish some time in May. They will then visit Guaymas and devote their attention to that city. In July MT. Borton will visit the city of Alamos, and later La Parranca, La Dura, Suaqui, Ures, Sahuaripa; and other points in the mountains, and Mir. Bird will attend to the Nacosari, Cananea and 2 rizpe region. The book will be complete description of Sonora, its rec ,rd of rich pro- ductiveness in the past and all ex- position of the great possibilities for the future. Of the completed book, handsomely illustrated with exquisite half tone cngravings and elegantly printed, many thousand copies will be distributed through out the United States. where they will meet the eyes and attract the attention of capitalists, presenting to their consideration the great field offered for successful and profitable in the Empire State of Mexico.

IN APoLoGIzING for their woiul laches "the push" now contend that they went into the county government inexperienced and un- familiar, and that the errors they have committed have been due to that very inexperience and lack of familiarity with county affairs hence should be condoned. Then why did they immediately set about forcing the resignation of the only member of the board of supervisors who was experienced in county government?-Mr. At kinson. Itthey wanted their in- experience and awkardness condon- ed why did they immediatly use their public office to grind priva te axes, antagoni ing thereby men oi experience in public afflirs who could and would have assisted and shielded them instead of pointing out their various delinquencies!

WHY ASSERTED.

Monday MT, F. s. Nave, the gentleman whom the board of SUD- ervisors have declared to be district attorney of Santa Cruz county, took the editor of THE OASIS to task for asserting that a court commis- sioner has no legal right to dissolve an injunction. and he pointedly asked why THE OASIS made such an assertion without investigation. The editor replied that the asser- tion was made from knowledge, citing the case where "the push" (they then called tn h.mselves "the kickers") enjoined the town of Nogales from levying a tax. Court Commissioners Chalmers then is- sued an injunction and afierward denied motion to dissolve such injunction, passing his denial upon the allegation that under the law he was powerless to do so. The town had to await several weeks, until Judge Bethune returned from California, before motion to dis solve would be entertained. Then the injunction was dissolved in stanter. The tax was levied ard "the kickers" resisted its collection it will be seen that the unsavory crowd have always made trouble. Finally the town won out and col lected the tax. But now MT. Nave says that Court Commissioner Chalmer did not comprehend the law. MT. McCurdy insists that he did. Both quote the same section in the statute. THE OASIS inclines to accept MT. McCurdy's guess. But it is Judge Dlvis' guess at the law which will count.

HAVING failed to secure control

HAVING failed to secure control of the republican organization ill Santa Cruz county "lhe push" now declare that they will support the democratic ticket next fall. And it is even asserted that some of the alleged republican county officials will seek vindication at the hands of the people as nominees upon the democratic ticket. All right. If the democratic party is willing to assume responsibility for their sius of omission and commission THE OASIS and its friends have no objection. This newspaper has always asserted that they are not true republicans, and has objected d to the plrty being held responsible for their short comings. Their present attitude vindicates that contention. So far as THE OASIS is concerned it prefers repre- 'enting a minority party which is honest to being the journalistic representa- tive of a majority party, reeking with corruption and dishonesty The republican party of Sants Cruz county intends to DESERVE the confidence of the people, ane can hereafter do so.

PROMOTED TO ATLANTA OFFICE.
Manager ]. Epps Brown to Leave
Local Exchange

Mr.. J. Epps Brown, for nearly two
years manager of the Americas office of
the Bell Telephone Co. has been pro-
NOTED to position in the Atlanta of.
fee, and will leave Americas soon to
enter upon his new duties.
Manager Brown will be succeeded
here by competent man sent down
from the Atlanta exchange.
Mr.. Brown does not know just yet
what work will be assigned him, but
will probably have charge of one of the
departments in the general Office, and
will reside in Atlanta.
Everyone in Americas, and especial
ly the business public, while congratu-
lating Mr.. Brown upon his we'll de-
served promotion, will deeply regret
to lose HIM as manager here. Thor
oughly competent and uniformly cour-
teous and obliging, his loss will be
keenlY felt.
The company has never had repre-
sentative here more thoroughly es-
teemed, or who looked more carefully
after its interests, and Americas will
give up Mr.. Brown with sincere regret.

.PARALYTIC STROKE
CAME SUDDENLY
Mr. Walter S. Brown Was Stricken
on Yesterday.
DEATH CAME WITH ONE HOUR.
Was Talking to Friends When Strick-
en- Down. Carried Home and Died
in Short While. Was Well Known
and Highly Esteemed.

Mr.. Walter 8. Brown was stricken
with paralysis about $3.50 o'clock yes
terday afternoon while sitting in the
office of Turpin's stables, and died
within an hour thereafter at his resi-
dence, No. 515 Hampton street.
The announcement of the sudden
and wellnigh tragic death of this big
hearted, iovial and popular young man
will be a shock to his hundreds of
friends not only in Americas, where
he had long resided, but to many
throughout this section, where he was
we'll known.
It is indeed hard to realize that Wal
ter Brown is dead.
Six months ago he had a severe at
tack of fever, from the effects of which
he never entirely recovered, though
quite recently he has been able to look
after his business interests
Yesterday, while in apparently as
good health as usual, he was convers'
ing with several friends at Turpin's
stables when, without warning, he fell
from his chair, speechless and uncon-
scious. Physicians were summoned
and he was soon removed to his home.
Within an hour the end came. The
grim destroyer had triumphed
Mr.. Brown was a native of Stewart
county, but for twenty years had re-
sided in Americas. Few men were
more generally esteemed.
He married Miss Hamil, the eldest
daughter of Mr.. A. J. Hamil, who with
two children survives him. The de-
ceased was about A years of age, and
during his long residence here made
friends of all with whom he came in
contact. His death will be generally
deplored.
The funeral services will be held
from the residence at o'clock this
afternoon, interment at Oak Grove
cemetery at o'clock. The pallbearers
are Messrs. II. B. Haynes, E. @. Park
err. O. M. Williams, G. W. Bacot, J.
w, Hightower, J. @. Clarke, D. f.

Sight is Priceless

Which everyone should observe, but
the eye is the most abused of all the
senses. If you wish to retain the
strength of your eyes, shun all cheap,
imperfect, broken aud scratched spec
taclee, and do not persist in going
without them when your sight begins
to fail you. giving as reason that they
will make you appear older or that you
may have to wear them constantly if
you begin. Experience has shown
that those who had recourse to glasses
at the first sign of failing vision pre-
served their eyes to the most advanced
age, while those from pride or other
causes who delayed the same found a
great deal of difficulty in getting glass
es to fit their over-strained eyes at all.
DR.. Nye, who is now at the Windsor
Hotel, room No. 10, is prepared to ac-
cept all cases of eye troubles, and pre-
pares all glasses here at his Office. In
order to receive proper attention do
not defer your coming to the last day,
but come at once. Respectfully,
S. B. NYE, Windsor Hotel.

A SLIGHT TUMBLE IN PRICES.
Contract Cotton Lost Ten Points
From Monday.

While the fluctuations in the cotton
market Yesterday were not consider
able, prices being at seesaw stage,
the feeling here was scarcely as bullish
as on the day previous.
Contracts declined ten points from
Mondays closing figures.
Port receipts were little heavier
than expected and this fact, with free
offerings of spot cotton, doubtless
caused an F'easier" feeling.
Considerable cotton has been sold in
Americus during the recent advance,
much of it bringing 81 cents, though
some farmers are still determined to
hold for 10 cents.
An Americus buyer purchased one
lot of $500 bales in a south Georgia
town Monday, cleaning out the ware
house there.
