trouble arose over local politics and
was confined to two families, both
prominent and influential in the

The original Muldoon rounded
into Tombstone yesterday for the
Add time.
Mpl stated that he had been
worth as much as $4,000, and
again he lacked $4,000 OF having
a cent, but that they had to hang
their grub pretty high when he
didn't get living.
Mul is the Prince of Overalls,
who beat his way over two divisions
of the Southern Pacific in an early
day and took his burro along.
He had just returned from the
Dragons, where be had been soak

When he got to Dragon Siding,
The oasis., 1908-10-31

the day was hot, the earth was dry
and so was Null. For the first time
in years he had to hit the hydrant.
His Intervals recoiled in horror so
he made up his mind to get to
Lordsburg by midnight where he
could toss glass of fluid dynamite
under his waist band. He could
not think of leaving Pete though.
Pete was his burro, so something
out of the ordinary had to be done.
Looking about him he observed
a broad gang plank running from
a car door out to low bank by
the side OF the track where someone
had been unloading hay. He knew
that the car was going east that
night. Marching that burro across
the plank, he threw his temporary
bridge down, shut the car door,
lay down in one end of the car on
the hay that was left, while Pete
quietly munched away on the same
article in the other end of the "side
door sleeper" Just after dark,
bump! she went, and the train
pulled out. When he reached
Bowie special search was made
for rod riders and Mul was discov-
cred. His clarion snore had given
him away.
The conductor told him to "un.

So the conductor began, "Hello

louder" said Mul, my pardner is
hard o. hearin"
"Pll make him hear" said the
conductor, and he crawled into the
car with his lantern, a club. and a
six-spotter to unload Muls bad
partner.
When he found it to be a little
white-nosed burro, he came back
and said to Mul, where do you

replied Mul.

"you can 60 as far as l do if | do

So Mul and his partner got into
Lordsburg in time to save his life,
and the car was spotted in the
stockyards to enable Mul's partner
to step out safely and gracefully.

A Veteran Mining Operator.

Wednesday night there was at
Nogales Mr.. George F. Beveridge,
a well known mining operator who
was once identified prominently
with mining in Sonora, but of re.
cent years has been operating in
Chihuahua and Sinaloa, who was
en- route to Culiacan. In 1856
Mr.. Beveridge was at the Santa
Rosalia, one of the famous mines
of the antigua days in Sonora that
had been abandoned on account of
an attack by Apaches. who mas
sacred the population of the camp,
very few escaping. Believing the
tradition that the mine was in
rich bonanza when abandoned, and
that there was concealed tunnel
that would lead to the part of the
antigua workings where the rich
ore was reported to have been left,
Mr.. Beverage devoted himself to
finding that tunnel, in which effort
he devoted many days. He was
assisted by Mr.. Antonio Acuha,
man whose grandfather had worked
in the mine when lad, escaping
the massacre, and had described the
ground and the tunnel. With the
aid OF Acufia and long study of the
ground Mr.. Beveridge concluded to
clear away for a distance OF
couple of hundred feet the talus at
the foot Of cliff like declivity
some distance away from the ledge.
The idea proved the right one, and
clearing the talus uncovered the
entrance to the tunnel with its
door OF mesquite wood, as described
by the grandfather of Acufia.
Traversing the tunnel a distance
of several hundred feet another
mesquite door was passed las per
the Acufia tradition) and beyond
that there was penetrated a ver-
liable treasure house. There was
a rich streak of gold ore about
eighteen inches wide from which
four carloads of rock shipped Melted
more than $4,000 American
money, and next to that lay an
ore body twelve feet in width that
milled 500 per ton. The mill
which was built at that time ran
several years on that ore body.
Mr.. Beveridge and his associates
sold the property to George Nit
chell, and Mr.. Beveridge turned to
other fields. All this has been
told in The OASIS before, but 80
many years ago that it seems now
quite different from twice told
tale.
Mr.. Beveridge is operating now
in the Cosala district of the state
OF Sinaloa, where he has two
promising camps, and he is start
ing another in the Territory of
Topic. The extension of the South
ern Pacific in that direction brings
all of his camps in much closer
touch, which Mr.. Beveridge finds
of great advantage.

Take this. from an interview:
II will tell you why ] am for Gov.
Hughes. and | feel that my arguments
perhaps will be the same as those of
many other New York men who are ia

York's vote will be necessary for the re-
publicans to elect their candidate for
President and that Gov Hughes is the
only candidate for the nomination who
can capture it,
Now. IL this is admitted, the republican
situation is desperate. 1t is much to be
questioned if even Gov. Hughes could
save the day. For if the party which
swept the country four years ago Is to-
CAV reduced to such straits that its future
depends on one state and that state de-
pends on one man, then we may be sure
the jig is up.
But who believes it? What is the mat

Why could not one of them carry

said he regretted the publicity American
newspapers had given to the game of
tennis he played with President Roose-
welt. 1t was likely to give a false i'm
preston of his true character as a
bishop.
His grace is in error. His game of
tennis with the President emphasized the
catholicity of his tastes, and added to the
appreciation of him in this country. The
man set off the bishop, and the bishop the
man. BY general agreement we had not
seen in America the combination In

A Slight Inaccuracy.
The San Francisco Chronicle prints the
following editorial paragraph:

Inc San FRANCISCO SHTOHICle prints luS
following editorial paragraph:
THE District of Columbia. with popu-
lation much less than that of the city and
county of San Francisco, spends $4,000 OOJ
annually on its public schools. 1t is a
big sum. and most cities of it's class
would stagger under such an expenditure,
but Washington has the rare good luck
of being fostered by the national govern
ment. which puts up the biggest part of
the SUM required for education and city
government
Just to begin with. the statement of the
Districts school cost. is exaggerated in
this statement by a trife of $4,000 600,
the current appropriation for the local
educational system. for all purposes. be-
ing 100000. AS far as being "fostered
by the national government is concerned,
the District does in truth have-in theory
every dollar of its tax money matched by a
federal dollar. contributed in lieu of taxes
upon the land held by the government in
the District. Inasmuch as this govern
ment-held land amounts to somewhat more
than half of the total area of the Dis
trict. the contribution of a federal dollar
10 match every local tax dollar is not
rated as an excess of contribution to the
cost of maintaining an appropriate school
system in Washington. And this state
ment of the case disposes of the loose and
unfounded remark that the national gov
eminent puts up the biggest part of the
sum required for education and city gov
err ment.' I'm point of fact. so frequent
have been the congressional violations of
the partnership agreement of 1878 styled
Inc organic act. that many local tax dol
lar Is compelled to stand alone without it's
legally required mate, to maintain some
portion Of the municipal burden. Thus il
happens that it is the District and not
the national government that puts up the
biggest part of the sum- With these
few exceptions the Chronicles comment
is correct

when those senator's prominently in

That is promised. Next week is the time,
and according to report both Mr.. Foraker
and Mr.. Dick will be ignored. They
are prophets now without honor in their
own country. Whether there are profits
in thus treating prophets is for the future
to decide.
The Ohio republican delegation to the
national convention minus the most gifted

holds the place in the admiration of the
general public that Mr.. Foraker does.
And yet all of this is logical enough if
the conditions in Ohio are as described.
If the course of Mr. Foraker and Mr..
Dick is really not approved at home there
, need be no hugger-mugger about the
matter. and the Endorsement of Judge
Taft for President will cover the point.
AS Mr.. Foraker is opposed to the Taft
candidacy he would not be a proper man
to help represent it at Chicago He
probably would decline an assignment if
one were offered him.
But. logical as the arrangement is it
leads to some serious inquiry. If Judge
Taft is nominated at Chicago, will these
complications in Ohio disappear? We
need not pay too much attention to the
claims of the democrats that matters are
already beyond repair: that the feud has
cost the republicans the state both in the
local and the national contests That
need not be. AS angry quarrels else
where have been composed. But can this
one be? After the steam roller has passed
over the two senators will their friends
be very enthusiastic in the campaign?
On the other hand. what will be the
effect if Judge Taft is defeated a Chi

The Dolliver Bill.

Considering the manner in which the
Dolliver school reorganization bill was
fastened through subcommittee and COM
mittee of the Senate without q chance for
the citizens of the District to present
their views on the subject, there will be
little regret for the failure of it's propo-
nentS to secure a special order OF con-
Sideration. AS the measure stands it is
Objectionable to the great majority Of
the people of this city. 1t strikes at the

1t proposes the abolition of the board of
education without giving that body an OPP
portunity to state its position. 1t plans
the replacement of fifteen school officials
with seven, without restriction upon the
appointing power in the selection of the
successors. 1t virtually threatens to throw
open the District school system to the
patronage hunters of the educational
world, regardless of the rights and needs
of the District. 1t is altogether contrary
to public beliefs and desires, and it's pres
ent plight is not regarded with chagrin.
There was no urgent necessity for haste
in the preparation of this bill. No seri-
Gus emergency existed when it was be-

passionately and in non-partisan spirit,
and with the view simply to securing
certain cure for the difficulties of school
administration, without losing time or
chance for final action. A bill thus pre-
pared would at least not have offended
the community on the score of being
hasty and ill-considered.
1t is gratifying to find that a DISPOSE
ton prevails in the Senate to prevent
this rushing through of a badly designed
measure, and while there may now and
then be occasion for Impotence at the
rules of the upper house when legisla-
ton obviously required by the District in
the public interest is blocked by a few
individuals. yet in this matter there will
be virtually no dissent from the sentiment
that the rules work to the good end of
preventing ill-advised enactment. The true
friends of the District, who recog-
nize the serious menace to local institu-
tons carried by this bill. should take full
advantage Of the delay to put the case as
strongly as possible before every member
of the Senate, SO that when the resources
of Rule s. are exhausted and the bill
is brought up for passage, the vote may
be based upon perfect understanding.
The recommittal of the bill. however.
would be far more to the point of good

perate charges. Haunting feathers. gay
