Banco de Sonora.

In another column there appears the regular monthly statement of the Banco de Sonora, which speaks volumes in itself for the manage ment of that great financial insti- tution. It shows the aggregate of business as closely approaching the ten million mark ($9,642 520.)
 But more important than that is a circular issued from the head office at Hermosillo, dated January 1fth, announcing the annual dividend for the business of the year just closed, which dividend amounts to $l6 per share (16% on the par value of the shares).
 Beside declaring the handsome dividend noted there was carried to the surplus the significant sum of $150,000.O0.
 As a successful financial institu- tion the Banco de Sonora is one oi the greatest and most solid in the Republic of Mexico, and in build ing it to its exalted position in the financial world Manager Max Muller has evinced all the qualities of great financier.

SONORA SETTINGS.

Accounts from the Zambona mine go to show that the work of development continues, and that the results are more satisfactory than ever. The rich ore bodies on the TOO foot level are continuing, as the work extends.
 The Fifth Regiment (cavalry) of the Mexican army, stationed long at Ortiz and vicinity, has been or dered to Chihuahua, and will march over the mountains to their new station, to accomplish which will require about forty days.
 The copper find mentioned in THE OASIS last week, on the Buena Vista ranch, but ten or twelve miles southeast from Nogales, con tinues to attract attention. Many samples taken have yielded rich assays in copper, lead and silver. Upon one claim a shaft has been sunk fifty feet, and it has yielded some very rich ores.
 The.house of W. Iberri's Sons of Guaymas, has bought from the San Diego owners the steamer Victoria, and will give the vessel Mexican register, employing her in the gull and coast trade. Mir. Miguel Den egri of Guaymas has gone to San Diego, California, to receive the steamer for her new owners, and superintend the transfer.
 The Alamos newspaper states that the end of the track on the Cananea, Rio Yaqui < Pacific rail- way is now at Guadalupe, a ranch about forty-eight kilometres north west from Navajoa. near which lat ter point the road will cross the Mayo river. Upon the mesa in front of Navajoa there will be es- tablished the station, and at that point the road will branch, the main line going toward Culiacan, Mazatlan and Gaudalajara, and the branch will go to Alamos via Minas Nuevas. The authority quoted states farther that in the month of April the whistle of the locomotive will salute Alamos, and that Vice President Corral will come to Sonora to attend the in- augural ceremonies at Alamos on the Fifth of May.

Decision Sustained.

The case of Delamater. against the
state of South Dakota has been decided
by the supreme court of the United
States in favor of South Dakota, con-
firming the findings OF the court of this
state, from which Mr.. Delamater APP
pealed. The plaintiff, travelling for a
Minnesota. liquor house, was arrested,
tried and convicted in Potter county for
selling liquor without license and a
fine of $3.50 was impo ed. He took the
case up to the federal supreme court,
claiming that the license law of the
state, as it, applied to his case, was a
violation of the constitution, beng an
interference with interstate commerce.
The federal supreme court affirmed the
verdict of the state court, imposing a
fine of $3.50.

Antelope Herds Increase.

A writer says while the law protects
antelope ill this state, such protection
would be of little avail in much of the
country west Of the Missouri river if it
were not for the fact that the ranchers
themselves look to the prove ntion Of
the slaughter of animals. Under that
protection reports indicate that mum
Der OF bands OF the animals are locating
themselves. Several with from twenty
to thirty in band are reported to be
on Bad river, near Philip, this winter,
probably having come out of the Bad
Lands, where they make their summer
pastlrage. One man who has just come
IN from the Grand river country reports
seeing band of more than 100 on that
stream a few days ago. He claims to
have counted 100 in the band, and that
they We're spread over a hill top, and he
knew that some of the band were GU t
of sight. With the protection which is
now being given them these animals
should in q few years again be numer
our in the western part of the state.

Dowie Is Dead.

No man or women born is altogether
good or altogether bad Always and
forever, while human nature is human,
good and bad will be hopelessly tangled
together in every mothers son. That
is one Of the unalterable rules of the
game; rule from whose working this
man Dowe was not exempt.
Dowie was a good man, but not all
good; a bad man, but not all bad; a
charlatan, but not all charlatan;a seer
of visions, but with a brooked cast in
his spiritual eyes. That is to say, he
was of flesh and blood. The threads in
the fabric Of his life were ill assorted
and badly broken; but that is none Of
our affair now.
Fraud and imposter or ministering
angel, either or both, this may be count
ed upon in his case as in every other.
The good that he did will endure. and
the evil will pass away. So will it be
with the rest of us, inevitably. We
need not worry about it, Surely it is
better to believe that the ugly, disfgur-
ing spots will all come out in the wash
of time.
No matter! This man who was alive
is dead. With God be the rest!

CLOSING ADDRESS
Senator Goodsell Made a Happy
Speech Before Going AaWav.

In the course of his closing good. bye
words Senator Goodsel said:
81 wish to call your attention to our
present condition. We are hungry, cold
and poorly clad. Our Cook has been
gone for a long time and Dur Cooley re-
fuses to work.
Our Carpenter has failed to provide
us shelter, and we have nothing to
Byrne.
The seventeenth of March Is APP
preaching and our Weaver has not fur
nished us a suit of Greene. But thanks
to the failure of the Anti Treating Bill,
they cannot say what we shall drink,
but what we May, therefore, we will
drink and be Merry. We may be con
sidered little Laxon words, if so we
will pass it up as a Goodsell
There being only one nationality
among us namely, the WEIGH, it is no t
surprising that our relations are con :
genial, and now when the Bell rings
out the old May we depart with happy
remembrances of many friends, and a
duty we'll done.
