The oasis., 1908-04-04

for which is now in the office, will be presented next week.
 In announcing this arrangement THE OASIS can be excused bit of self felicitation. The work con- tracted now with the Board of Trade Is such as THE OASIS takes pride in doing; and it has done a great deal of 1t gratuitouslY. That the work is appreciated right here at home, and an effort to sustain it is made by the commercial or ganization of the city, is matter for self congratulation that THE OASIS may be pardoned in exer- cising.
 During a long time in former years THE OASIS was placed on file in the reading room of many such
 
 organizations, and at the expense of the newspaper itself. The ar engagement was abandoned finally for the reason that 1t was burden that the management of the paper felt that they could not afford. Yet it was of value to Nogales and to the country tributary, for the writer has been assured by many who have made investments and are operating now in this region, that their first knowledge of the opportunities presented in this di- rection was gained from perusing the columns of THE OASIS in pub lie reading room in their own town, or some place in their neigh borhood where they visited fre- quently. It was with regret on the part of THE OASIS people that the arrangement was abandoned, for its practice several years demon strated thoroughly it's value and advantages. To have the good work taken up now by the Board of Trade, and sustained out from its treasury, IS a matter gratifying in the extreme to THE OASIS peo- pie. And while it congratulates itself upon the recognition given, 1t feels that 1t is not egotism to congratulate Nogales upon the new departure.

\ NEW DEPARTURE.

In another column will be found list of Chambers of Commerce, Boards of Trade, Mining Ex> changes, Public Libraries, etc., scat tered widely in the United States where THE OASIS will be found on file in the reading rooms to which the general public have access. The paper is supplied to all the reading rooms named, by an ar engagement with the Nogales and Santa Cruz County Board of Trade, which has adopted that method of advertising Mogales and Santa Cruz County, with their abundant resources. In all those places the reading public will find regularly each week the recognized exponent of the vast country along the in- ternational boundary, and in that way there will be brought to the attention of many thousand peo- pie who would otherwise entertain hay ideas with regard to the sub- ject, full and accurate knowledge of the great region, in both Mex leo and the United States, that is tributary to the line city.
 Supplementary, and as a part of the contract with the Board of Trade, there will appear, once each month at least, special illustrated articles descriptive of the region, or presenting salient points in the development thereof. The first one of such articles, descriptive of the railway system of the West Coast of Mexico, centered at Nogales, was due to appear in this number of the paper; but the map plate to accompany the article was received from the engravers too late for re- production in this issue; so it will have to go over to another week. i Had the plate come one day sooner it would have been presented, with the accompanying article, in this issue. The article has been pre- pared, and with the map, the plate

INCREASE IN REVENUE
IS EXPLAINED NOW
Business Is Picking Up in One
Branch Of the Treasury
Service.

Officials OF the Treasury Department
say the recent sudden picking up IN in
ternalr revenue receipts is due In a large
measure TO the assurance that there
viii be no change in settled policy Of
the Government. and also to the fact
the liquor dealers are taking large guam
titles OF stock out OF bond.
Ia the past six weeks there has been
a gradual increase in the internal reVe-
nue. receipts, which insures a larger sum
at the close OF the fiscal year, June 80,
1909 than marked the close OF the last
fiscal year.
Already the receipts from internal
revenue are catching up 10 those OF
last year. Six weeks ago, there was a
difference OF more than 100000 This
has been cut down 10 less than 5000
900, and II is believed that by the end
of January, the Internal revenue viii
equal the amount collected for the
same period of last year
II is limited in the Treasury that Sec
rotary COTtelyOu may have something
70 say about additional internal revenue
taxes as a means for increasing the
revenues Of the Government. This
method OF raising revenue is regarded
by many as less obnoxious than the
tariff. as the tax is more indirect.
