To Shorten a Route.

 From time to time q road over the route mentioned has been talked of by Nogales people, and 1t is generally conceded that 1t would be of great benefit to the line city, in that 1t would shorten greatly the distances between Nogales and points along the Altar river, the people from which places would come here. to do their trading, and giving this market a source of sup ply for hay, grain, vegetables, etc, which would be readily absorbed by the great and growing demand here.
 MT. Daley states that there will be about 1900 feet of new road that will have to be built in the canyon, to get down below the falls, and that there will he several miles of road repairing to do at each end of the new work. It will require several thousand dollars to do it all. He is willing to do part of the work on his own account, and for hls own convenience but he desires financial assistance. The material benefit the new road will be to Nogales makes 1t a matter of public concern, and the business men oi the line city should give Mir. Daley all the aid possible,

An Important Ruling.

Judge Kent this morning in the case of Bonner against Silva, an action for waste by the owner of school lands, decided that the owner of school lands has no right of action against. his tenant for waste committedaby him This is of no little importa ucessto the own CTS of school lands, whose improv- ements are leased to tenants, as it seemingly gives to the tenant the right to remove any and all im- provements upon school lands, in- cluding all trees and buildings, and apparently the owner has no remedy. It would seem from the decision that the owner of such lands must keep them in his actual possession or suffer the risk of hav- ing all his improvements destroy ed without redress.-Arlzona De- mocrat.

done. Instead Of having several hefders stay up aIl night watching q flock of sheep tO keep them from struyinQ, we just eet lanterns around the flock. Tie lanterns are set close enough together go that the light from one reaches the light of another, and then half way between the lanterns we place q small flag. This array of light and red, white and blue serves the pur- pose ofas many herders, and the lanterns are more trustworthy than herders They won't go away. Of course we have to keep one man on watch to see that the lanterns don't go out, but at that the lantern scheme is a great saving proposl- tion."

Railway Extension.

Superintendent Oster of the So nora railway, who was at Nogales Wednesday, informed THE OASIS that the road now built into Maya joa had been accepted by the gov- ernment engineers, and that trains will be running into that town re- gularly as soon as the time card made already has received gov. ernmental approval. He anticip- ated that will be about the 12th inst.
 The gentleman stated further that this week tracklaying between Buena Vista and Cumaripa ton the Tonochi extension) will begin, and that within couple of weeks the rails will be laid into the latter named place. Mr. Oster is making every effort to induce freighters and packers who are coming from the Yaqui river now into Ortiz or Minas Prietas, to transfer to the road into Cumaripa, and to get shippers to send their freight to that station. The distance is much less.
 Work upon both extensions, toward Alamos and up the river toward Tonichi, is being crowded as rapidly as possible, and every effort IS being put forth to bring grading outfits to Sonora Co take contracts on the work.
