JUSTICE IS DEMANDED.

Secretary Cheatnam OF Cne
Southern Cotton Growers Asso.
citation, has succeeded in running
down the scoundrel who has
been manipulating the cotton
reports, for the purpose of aid
ing the spectators. When Sec
retary Cheatham first made the
charges he was scoffed at by the
Agricultural Department, and a
number of Congressman, but he
persisted in his demand for an
investigation until the depart,
ment put secret service men on
the trail. and they have report
ed that Associate Statistician
Edward S. Holmes is guilty of
'siugglingn the official cotton
statistics. Holmes has been dis
missed from the service and will
be prosecuted. It was ascertain
ed that he received at one time
for his false advance reports
S73, 900, that he owns valuable
property in various cities, and
has made a fortune by his nefar-
ious methods.
When the discovery was first
made, the department was ad-
vised that there was no criminal
law which could reach Holmes:
but since then, whether because
of the clamor of the cotton asso-
citation or not, the law depart
ment will prosecute Holmes, and
any and all persons found to
be associated with him in the
scheme to rob the cotton planter
of the honest reward for his toll.
1t is a dead sure thing that
Holmes is caught, but the ques-
ton is who are his confederates?
1t would not surprise US in the
least to learn that if q thorough
investigation is made and the
prosecuting officers do their duty
the United States Senate will
have some more of it's members
doing the crying act. We do not
believe Holmes could possibly
conduct his dishonest operations
without ha":ng outside confed.
crates, and we believe that
many officials reaped fortunes
from the tips" they bought or
otherwise secured from Holmes.
If Holmes is prosecuted, as the
indications are, he will be doing
the country a great service it he
will become a government wit
ness and "peach'' on the gang
who was III with him.
It is common report that there
are men in public life in Wash
ington, and not a few Of them
from the South, who went to
Washington comparatively poor,
now immensely wealthy. Ihey
own all kinds of stocks and
other property abroad, but at
home very little-some SO poor
at home that they have notes in
the banks still unpaid, although
several years old. Where did
these men get the means to be
foreign investors? Have they
had a Holmes in the various de-
partments of the government
to give them ''tips": If there is
anything in these rumors, we
hope the prosecution of Holmes
will bring it out so the people
may see whether or not they
have been honoring and trusting
honest men or thieves.

Postponed Their Trip.

Tuesday Judge ". A. O'Connor prepared to go to Sopori upon off, cial business. and engaged team to convey himself and Mrs. O'Con- nor, who intended going along. He was given the same team that spilled the Duffy party in the arroyo the preceding Sunday. Be- fore starting the judge drove down to Morley Avenue to make few necessary purchases, and went across International street to turn. When he started to return down Morley avenue the team took the bits between their teeth and went tearing down that street. Bracing his feet against the dash- board the judge sawed on the bits in futile endeavor to stop the frantic flight. The dashboard gave way and he slid out, over one of the front wheels, which scraped his back as he alighted. The vehicle passed him in twinkling, and little farther down the street the team collided with the town mule and municipal cart, piling mule. cart, team and buggy into a confused heap in the middle of the street. One of the horses was sev- erely cut and skinned. and the cart and buggy were wrecked. The fragments were clealed away, the animals taken to their respective stables, and the judge telephoned Mrs. O'Connor that the trip to So- pori was postponed.

A Fine Ranche.

Near Patagonia Mir. James Brash has fine fruit ranche, which has heretofore received mention in THE OASIS columns, and upon which extensive improvements are pro- iected to be carried out the present year.
 There are about 1900 fruit trees, from one to four years of age, all thriving nicely. Much of the irriga- tion has been by pumping from a we'll, a large Cameron pump lifting the water, but several years ago Mr. Brush built a dam for im- pounding the flood waters flowing off from a portion of the north slope of the Patagonia mountains. The dam is now twenty-two feet high, and has created quite a re- servoir But during the coming summer 1t will be raised to a height of forty-fve feet, and it will be about 300 feet long on the top, and 100 feet iii width at the base. To handle the earth in making the dam scrapers and large dump car running on rails will be used.
 In another cafon, near at hand a diversion dam has been built, which catches the water flowing down that canon, and turns it through canal thirty feet wide and several hundred feet in length into the reservoir. The water shed utilised covers several square miles and when the projected improve ments are all completed the water supply conserved will be amply sufficient for all needs.

Breathes there man with a soul s.
dead,

Breathes there a man with a soul 50
dead,
Who never to himself has said,
''My trade OF late is getting bad,
III try another ten-inch ad. /"
If such there be, go mark him well;
For him, no bank account shall
swell,
No angel watch the golden stair
To welcome home millionaire,
The man who never asks for trade
BY local line or ad, displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly gain
And patronage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly, friends, let no rude
sound,
Disturb his solitude profound,
Here let him live In calm repose
Unsought except by men he owes.
And when ne dies, go plant him deep.
That naught may break his dream
less sleep;
Where no rude clamor may dispell
The quiet that he loved 50 well.
And that the world may know its loss,
Place on his grave wreath OF moss;
And on a stone above Here lies
A chump who wouldn't advertise. "

even dignity. Thin as barber pole,

nothing but erect. His hat IS always

same angle. His high collar is always
reaching up under his chin, and his
white muslin tie OF the same spotless
texture. But above and beyond every
thing else Is senator Foley's over
coat. That always rests on his left
