Mexlco's PROPOSED ENACTMENT.

Americans operating in Mexico that is some of them are taking needless alarm at the proposed federal enactment prohibiting for eign corporations denouncing or acquiring mining property in Mex leo; and all sorts of protests are being adopted against the proposed enactment by various commercial and business bodies in the United States. Not long ago the Mining Exchange at Los Angeles adopted such resolution, and only last week the Chamber of Commerce at Douglas went on record in the same way, several other organiza- tions are contemplating action of the kind, while American news papers generally are teeming with unfavorable comment. All the way through the assumption seems that the proposed enactment will ham, per the operations of American capital engaged in mining in Mex ico, and check the flow into the republic of money for mining in- vestments. Before this article THE OASIS has published an editorial on the matter, which insisted that there can be no such result as that anticipated. The proposed law aims only at making universal what IS now very general custom. And its object is to prevent such frauds as have been perpetrated by men who have taken advantage of the present laxity of the law on the subject. The proposed new law will prohibit foreign corporations from owning or acquiring mining property in Mexico. All that will be necessary under the law will be to organize a corporation in Mex leo, and have the titles to the prop erty operated in the name of that company, the foreign corporation holding all the shares in the Mex can corporation. Already that has been done by the Greene Consoli- dated Copper Co.,, which, as ex- plained in the former article in

the Rooseyeltian policies, where Mir. Bryan cannot. As president Mr. Taft will have the giving of the offices that republican senators must have for their friends. Mr. Bryan will be parcelling out to democrats the self same offices, and to him they will not be the political asset to control the senate for his pol icies that they will be to Mir. Taft toward reaching the almost same identical ends. And right there is where the wise voter will vote the republican ticket. With Mr Bryan in the White House the wheels that are turning the machinery of gov ernment to a just regulation of aggregated capital will be blocked completely.

FROM ONE POINT OF VIEW.

The two great political parties of the country have made their nom- inations for the presidency, and with each of the two great men pitted against each other there have been named strong man for the second place. The issues have been
 made, the campaign Is being plan med, and very shortly the country will be occupied with the moil and turmoil of political conflict. In the declarations of principles there IS no wide difference between the two parties. Bidding for votes in certain directions each has made concessions that are viewed askance Ebg conservative men, and while in so@ae things one party may have g9@e farther than the other, on the whole both are pledged to the peo- ple to about the same general course pf policy. That is the policy which has become known far and
 w1de as the Roosevelt policy, which taken in it's final analysis means GkaE the great aggregations of capi- taa alat have become so necessary do the conduct of the affairs of modern civilization must submit to governmental control. That the men conducting those aggregations aiO not relish the proposition and will continue to oppose the Roose- welt policies goes without saving; and that they will give their SUD- port in the election to the party whose success will postpone farther an dhe future the inevitable regula- aioa seems a natural conclusion. That being the case the duty of the voter is plain, and that is that he should support the ticket the elec- tioa of which will be more apt to result in continuation of the Roose- welt policies. Without hesitation TaE OASIS ayers that it is the re- publican ticket which meets more nearly the need of the hour. Tn fact it seems plain to the writer

 tinuance of the Roosevelt policies and postponing for four years at least the great reforms toward which the present occupant of the White House has started the coun- try.
 It would seem that careful ex- animation of the situation ought to convince the most skeptical of the correctness of the foregoing posi- tion. Everyone knows that even though Mir. Bryan should be elected by a large majority, and there should ride in with him a goodly majority in the popular branch of Congress it will be impossible to change the political complexion of the Senate. While the abnormal republican majority in that great Legislative body may be reduced materially in the November elec- tion, the democracy cannot carry sufficient number of the state legis. latures that will have senators to elect to give democratic majority in the upper chamber. They might elect every state legislature which would elect a senator next winter, and even then they would fall short of majority, because the re- publican majority in the Senate exceeds now twO-thirds vote, and but one-third of the senators are to be replaced by legislatures elected in November. Mir. Bryan would not have the potency in controlling the senate for enactment of the same policies that has been yielded by Mr. Roosevelt and will be wielded by MT. Taft. And that is right where ''the interests" will be able to entrench themselves against further aggressions by the general government. They will prefer the election of Mir. Bryan because they know very plainly that he will lack that great leverage that has enabled MT. Roosevelt to dominate the Senate and bring it to his will, which power MT. Taft will possess Tn just as great degree; and that is the power of public patronage. In all the states the senators and congressman are the almoners of public patronage when they are in accord with the administration When they are not so in accord the distribution of the local federal offices goes into other hands. Sena tors of the party in power must provide for their followers at the public crib, or they do not remain senators long. They cannot ask offices for their followers from President whose policies they are opposing on the floor of the Senate. That was why President Roosevelt was able to force his policy upon an unwilling Senate, and for the same reason MT. Taft will be able to continue

these columns, owns all the shares in the Cananea Consolidated Con. per Co.,. and the latter corporation owns the property and transacts the business in Mexico. it being a native corporation. The writer ia director and officer in a half dozen different corporations opera ting mines in Mexico, and with single exception, temporary only, every one of them operates through a native corporation. Speaking from experience the assertion is made here and now that the method instanced is no hardship whatever but is rather a protection and safe guard to legitimate enterprise that means to do what is right.
 The law is intended as safe- guard to the working men and business men of Mexico against the operation of fraudulent corpora tions that incur indebtedness with out responsibility and leave their creditors in the lurch, some of which have been utterly scandalous Tn their operation. Only this week THE OASIS has been informed of one such operation in the Mazda lena district of Sonora. A cor poration organized in New York or New Jersey, operated a gold mine on the San Miguel river, running small mill that it had acquired by lease or rental. It closed down, shipped out the proceeds of the run, and left the workmen unpaid. Then it was found that the com 'pany had no legal existence in Mexico. After time a represen- tative came from New York and gave 1t out that all the claims against the company would be settled. THE OASIS is informed by q man who was foreman of the mine that he went 10 the repre- sentative and presented his claim. He was informed that if he could prove that man of whom he had never heard before, residing in New York, owed him the money he would be paid. He could not prove any such fact. He had been work ing for the Ruinart Mining Com pany. There he was, utterly help less. Had the Ruinart Mining Company been obliged to operate through a native corporation that organization would have held titles to the property, and when it closed the mine and mill without paying the men they could have filed their liens on the property and held 1t for their claims. It is such opera tions as that described above that the proposed new law is designed to prevent, and there can be no objection to it's enactment save by those who wish to operate in that same way.

Mr.. Temke's election, which is
very promising, will be assured
if Mr.. Moffett will kindly drop
down this way again before the
campaign is over. We don't
wish to go on record as casting
any reflection on Mr.. Moffett
He is doubtless a very nice gen

Vote the Republican Ticket.

The Republican nominees OF
the county ticket are getting
some mighty telling ticks in.
Their election means the rapid
and substantial advancement of
the county, hence, why not,
Mr.. Voter, cast your ballot to
your very best interests? Let's
throw off this lethargy that has
our county government in its
grasp, by putting the party OF
construction in power. 1t is a
bad as we'll as dangerous policy
to vote year after year with one
particular party when you can
see with your own eyes that
that party is holding power to
the detriment and stagnation of
interests that concern you right
at home.
Nationally. it probably does
not concern you so vitally as
to the exercising of a keener and
broader forethought as in a home
election, and fellow citizen and
co-worker in the upbuilding of
Luna county, if your dearest
thoughts are today centered on
William Jennings Bryan, we have
not the slightest objection to
raise. All we ask is that you think
Of your home interests and try to
improve them by voting the Re-
publican ticket. You know that
for efficiency the men the Repub-
Leans of this county have nomi-
mated to take the county govern
ment in hand, can't be discount
ed. Their past record is an open
book, and if they are seated(and
we have every reason to believe
they will be- old Luna will en-
JOY the finest and cleanest ad-
ministration she has had in years
and advance more in one year
than she has in any previous FIVE.
Come along with US, Mr.. Voter,

fully and vote for the good old
Republican party, the party that
makes it possible for you today
to be living in the grandest and
freest country under the sun.

Maryland and the Oyster.

From the New York Evening Post.
Is the Maryland oyster wild animal
or crop? Shall 1t be left to the mercies
of an oyster trust or shall it be delved
for with antediluvian tools under the
competitive system? Shall IL come into
its own in the pure food world and dis
possess the New York and Massachusetts
oysters of their hitherto pre-eminene
places In epicurean circles or remain q
little-sought-afte product of its state, far
less famed than terrapin or Lady Balti-
tons that have been agitating all OF
Maryland OF late. and are again con-
vuls ng society; for the first report of the
shellfish commission, constituted eighteen
months ago. has just appeared. Defend
ers of the rights Of the common people
and the oyster-see in 1t, on one hand, an
other manifestation OF the recent sad
tendency toward combinations and GEN.
trail cation, while the capitalistic classes
and their newspaper organs; ever the
tools Of the criminal rich, behold In it
or pretend to behold in it-another step
forward for their state.
Now. IL the fate OF the Maryland oyster
were in the hands of those " seacres, the
United States appraisers at the port OF
New York, or their superiors In WASH
ington, the true definition of the oyster
would not be lacking. They who have
taxed snpils as Id animals and frogs
legs as dressed poultry would either put
the oyster in the former class. or. what IL
more likely classify 1t as jewelry mot
seD. by reason of It's Gloss connection
with the pearl industry.

FOR STOUT WOMEN.
Fashionable Corsets Give Both Com
fort and Style.

The most difficult problem stout elderly
women have to cope with in a sartoria,
way is the selection of a suitable corset
for the success OF an entire toilet de-
ponds upon the "fit' of this necessary
article. and, fortunately, rotund persons
are generally willing to undergo all man.
ner of inconvenience and trouble IL only
4 stylish and comfortable corset is the as
sured result.
The fairly tall. stout. figure OF middle
age is not overwhelmed with difficulties
IN this respect although she has her own
share, but it is the short. leshy woman
the figure that boasts of thirty-inch
waist measure with a thirty-six bust
measure, or. when opposite conditions ex-
ist, and forty-four bust appears above
a twenty six-inch waist-who need SYM
pathy and who gladly grasp at the faint
est help along these lines
With them the first question in corset
choosing is, Shall l buy q corset ready
made or have 1t made to order? In my
opinion there are advantages on both
sides. A really conscientious corsetiere
can undoubtedly improve the figure, but
these people are very expensive and
too cheap corsetiere is not to be trusted
The money will be far better spent in the
purchase OF a good ready made corset.
Not long ago l found a medium-priced
corsetiere who makes an excellent corset
for a stout figure. He studies the back
when creating style, and every one knows
how much depends upon the set of the
