NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, June 4.-The cotton market
opened steady and l to 16 points higher
on a small scramble of local shorts to
secure profits in part due to better Liv
erpool cables than expected and in part
10 belief that the market was in an over
sold condition. After a momentary pause
in which prices settled back few points,
there was a further forward movement in
which room bears and investment de-
mand competed for the summer months.
Rel ports that the continent needed large
amounts of cotton with which to carry
out contracts in yarns and cloths for July
and August delivery and claims that
Northern spinners were freely bidding for
cotton in Southern spot markets, helped
10 create firmer feeling generally.
Nevertheless business was at no time
particularly active and the market as
whole was skeptical of any pronounced
rise SO long as the new crop continues to
prosper. A sudden rise to S.25 for July
in New Orleans caused connection
among local shorts at midday and on
a fresh wave of buying July here worked
up TO SIC while August sold at $40 Dur
ing the rest of the day the market was
-qiet with prices off several points un-
der scattering sales for profits by scalp
ers and lull in outside support The
close was quiet and steady with prices
net unchanged to 10 points higher. Total
sales were estimated at 100000 bales.
Light port and interior receipts with an
increasing export movement were given
some Importance as bpllish factors.

Chicago, June 4.-Bulls switched with
surprising rapidity in the corn pit to-
day and set all traders to guessing what
the next bit of manipulation by the New
York crowd would be. Bears changed
front under the action of the bull lead

have been expected after four days of al
most constant declines, yet the action
was remarkably erratic. July corn closed

The oasis., 1902-10-18

TIE Tucson Post has expanded into a daily for the campaign. It is newsy and readable sheet, and TIE OASIS hopes it may be con tinued permanently. It is a mat ter for regret that the republicans of one of the most important coun- ties in the territory have been so bereft of journalistic representa- ton.
The oasis., 1902-10-18

proclamation advertise that upon a given day they will select new set of servants to do their work through the ensuing two years. Then the various political parties make applications for the various jobs for certain men they have de, signated in their respective con ventions. Then it is up to the people to scrutinize the characters and qualifications of the various applicants. In that duty of scru. tiny every elector Is partner in a business concern, investigating the men wanting jobs. Now, if any partner knows anything in the career or record of any of these applicants for public jobs whereby he is hardly a fit person to be em- ployed, is it "mudslinging" for him to inform the other partners any more than it would be "mudsling- ing" for a partner in commercial house to convey to his partners i there the same facts about the same man, if he wanted a job there. But if the alleged fact is fictitious, then the act would become "mudsling- ing" whether the allegation was made in the public partnership of all the people, or in the private ! partnership of commercial house. | Again, if one of these applicants for public jobs has already held the job to which he aspires, or an other one, and in that job he has not filled the full measure of duty, or has committed some act which has shown him incompetent or lily qualified for the job he seeks to re- tain or secure, and any citizen knows it for fact, 1t is both the right and duty of that citizen to make known that fact; and it is not "mudslinging" for him to dc so. The citizen having made known the fact, 1t Is the duty of his part ners in the body polite to give it due weight and consideration in determining whether to retain that official in his job or give it to the other applicant. If, in making charges against an official seeking reelection any citizen alleges that which is false, he is then guilty of "mudslinging." But if the charges be true, he has done his duty only in making known the information he conveys.
 With the foregoing there is pre- sented for consideration a clear and perfectly plain description of what constitutes "mudslinging" and what does not.
The oasis., 1902-10-18
"muoslINcINe"- WHAT IS IT7

always the first to decry mud slinging" in politics?
 Tn this connection pertinent inquiry would be, What is mud slinging?'" It is here and now plainly maintained that telling the truth about an official transaction is not. It is here and now further maintained that telling the truth in regard to a private transaction wherein the party instanced dem- onstrated his own dishonesty or unfitness for public office, is like wise not "mudslinging."
 Public officials are but the ser wants of the people," They all tell you that when they stand upon the hustings and ask you to vote for their reelection. And men who have not been public servants but hope to be, make the same asser- ton when before the people seek ing votes.
 How are the people to know that a man will make a good and faith ful public servant without examin- ation of his record as man? How are the people to know that an off, cial seeking reelection has been faithful without similar examina- tion of his official record? How are the people to examine such rec ords? In the same way that a business concern would take cogni- zance of the character and qualifi- cations of those seeking employ ment or already in that employ ment seeking promotion or reten- tion.
 We will suppose d large business house desiring to employ a number of men. It will advertise that it will receive applications or in some other way the fact is made known. Now, do not the proprietors care fully scrutinize the character and qualifications of all the applicants? If one of the partners has learned something of one of the applicants which makes him an undesirable servant, does he not inform the other partners? Is that "mudsling- ing?"
 Take another case: A man Is al ready in the employ of business house. He does something which is against The interests of the house which is known to only one of the partners. Is it "mudslinging" for that partner to inform his asso- ciates of the offense of their ser want? Of course 1t is not. Straight way they institute an investigation. The offending servant is informed of the charge against him, and after discussing the whole matter he is either discharged or returned to duty with a reprimand.
 Now, in sitting the characters and qualifications of public officials -"the servants of the peop.e," as they always so fondly call them selves-the same methods of pro- ceedure are adopted. The people, through their proper servants bv

 is taken as an opportune momentfor revival of the democratic assertion that Senator Quay, or some other eastern republican magnate favor able 10 Arizona's admission to statehood, has declared that the election of democratic delegate from the territory will be of greater assistance to the cause, than If the republican nominee be elected. Be- fore now TIE OASIS has had occa- sion to touch upon this proposition, and 1t seems no more tenable now than heretofore. It seems incred- ible that democratic senators should be easily sweryed from a course they say they advocate because they believe it right. But if they are to be so governed by partisan considerations, is it not very plain that an equal or greater number of republican senators now opposed to admission would switch over to make another republican state, and thusI save the measure? That is
 
 granting that partisan considera- tions have the weight that our democratic friends insist they do. The fact remains that the senate is republican by strong majority, and it will so remain for a number of years. And Arizona's chances for admission lie just as much with that majority as they do in a part of that majority going over to the minority.
 In Fan interview in the Tucson Citizen of Monday Mir. Smith frankly says he could not have passed the statehood measure in the house, in the last session, had he not assured his democratic col leagues in that body that it meant the return of democratic con- gressman and two democratic United States senators from the new state.
 If that be true partisan consider atlons have much more weight al Washington than TIE OASIS ha, been willing to admit That being the case, Mir. Smiths ilI-adviseo utterance "has given the snal away" and will array against th, measure the entire republican ma | jority in the senate, except, per. haps, Senator Quay. So, upon tht very ground that Mir. Smith got tn, bill through the house, it is now necessary to convince republican senators by electing Mir. Morrison Mir. Smith having very successfully buncoed the house democrats into supporting and passing the meas ure, the people of Arizona mus now bunco the republican senator: into putting the bill through the senate. That is our only hope accepting the statement of Mir Smith.
 Now, TIE OASIS contends that other than partisan consideration. stand in the way of the admission of Arizona, and will continue so tC

JULY AN PHILIPPINES.
Specimen of Casualty List That Will

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Our Manila correspondent cables that
storm of enthusiasm swept the Philippines
on Friday as a result of President Roose-
velt's message of peace. amnesty and good
will to the inhabitants of our oriental pos
sessions.
There is only one thing lacking to con-
vince us that the enthusiasm was genuine,
and as later particulars arrive this omis-
sion will doubtless be supplied to our COM
plete satisfaction. Let US not meanwhile
entertain any doubts.
OF course, it would have been more sat
isfying to the Inter Ocean and It's readers
had we been able to submit under the ap-
propriate and usual heading a list some
thing like the following an evidence Of
good faith on the part of those who will
hereafter share in the rights privileges and
immunities of a free people:
Apolinario Mabini, aged u; cannon fire.
cracker; thumb and foreflnger gone.
Pho del Pillar. jr.. aged IA; both eyes badly
burned; had looked into a Roman candle
partly exploded; will recover.
Maxine Ocampo, aged 6; toy cannon;

Estaban Consortes. aged IL; stray bullet;
one ear left; left ear all right.
Little Pedro Cubarrubias, aged 8: given
can of powder and match by father, who
could refuse him nothing; no tidings.
Lucas Camerino, aged 3; cap pistol; lock-
jaw.
Hermonogenes Plata, aged o. held bomb
firecracker after igniting in right hand;
will never hold anything in that hand
again.
Macario de Ocampo aged 7: placed
bunch of firecrackers in CRATE of kitchen
stove: made successful ascension; one leg
may be saved.
Juan Leondia Viarno, aged IS: didn't
know 1t was loaded; no reason to believe he
knows 1t now.
Emilio Agulnaldo, jr., aged 4: pinwheel;
wouldn't turn: helped it: was a sweet child
and his little nose will be missed by family
and friends.
We must be patient and wait Even
though the list OF casualties on Friday may
prove disappointing, we know that the
American spirit is at large in the Philip
pines and that it will grow from year to
year until there will be no longer any uues-
ton as to the love and reverence and enthu-
slasm with which the natives regard our in
situations
