tuberculosis consumption and the
present movement for the conserva-
ton OF life and health is OF personal
importance To each and every one.
Demonstrations with microscope and
in the laboratory have shown that at
different times in life all OF us have
within our systems the bacillus which
. produces consumption
1T has also been proven that the
only way TO prevent these germs from
destroying the tissues in our bodies Is
by keeping the entire body in such
perfect working order that the min
ute tissues that make up the lungs.
glands. joints and bones are able TO
resist the attacks OF this germ. Herea-
ity plays an important role in tho
: origin of consumption only as it gives
the individual a low resisting power
TO the tissues for this particular germ
The foregoing is recognized 10 be the
true status of affairs by scientific
medical minds today

of the theurgist Consumption is as
amenable to treatment as most other
diseases, and one needs 10 follow the
advice, directions and treatment out

body Those who are financially un-
able TO leave this climate should know
tina; 1t is just as possible TO make n
complete recovery right here in the
city or state as in any other part Of
the country.
Each case of tuberculosis should
be treated as an individual case, no
two alike, except in general routine,
such as diet. exercise. sunlight and
outdoor air. The most necessary thing
is TO teach a patient to have the ut
most confidence in the possibility of
his ultimate recovery!

Hands Off the Wool Tariff

What influence the Commercial Club of Omaha and its friends have with the six members of the House, and two Senators from Nebraska was thrown against any reduction in the present tariff on wool, when the organization voted unanimous ly last week to oppose in every way possible any move to tamper with the schedules applying on wool.
 As the club has a membership of 1000 representative of the largest business interests of Me- braska, the action means that the Nebraska representatives in Con- gress will be among the first to- take a firm stand for the wool growers.
 Arguments presented by the Ne braska organization are that the wool growing industry has been fostered in the west, where it should be developed and encouraged be- cause of a just and adequate tariff; that as result the percentage of shearing sheep west of the Missis- sippi river has been increased from 26 per cent in 1870, to 72 per cent in 1907 and the figures for 1908 show that 67 per cent of the shear ing sheep of the United States are now west of the Missouri river.
 Attention is also called to the fact that of the 271 1851, ,345 pounds of wool clipped in the United States, 70 per cent is produced in the states west of the Missouri river; that thousands of acres of western lands are particularly adapted to the sheep and wool in duStry alone and are made valu- able because of the present tariff schedules which make wool grow ing profitable and at the same time work hardship on neither manufacturer nor consumer of woolen products.
 It is the duty of every western congressman, according to the Omaha view of the situation, to stand firmly for the maintenance of the present schedules on wool and when the subject comes up, as it is anticipated it will, before the special session in congress promised by the republican administration, doubtless many other organizations of similar character which have the interests of the wool growers at heart, will have communications before their representatives in con- gress, urging them to stand up for THE WEST.

process of elimination they have culled all inferior animals, stags, old cows, etc., until now there may be found upon the ranges of Proto Brothers cleaner and more uni form herd of high grade cattle than may be found anywhere in Sonora and Arizona.
 In the Pinito and Sierra Azul mountains are fine bodies of tim Der lands that are capable of util- ization as the foundation of very valuable lumber and timber in- dustry. In the lower reaches of the mountains there is a body of fine oak timber, with some ash and walnut, while on the summits and the sides of the mountains down their slopes, there is a body of splendid pine timber. Of these fine timber lands there are more than 50,000 acres. One day there will be built a narrow guage railway from station on the line of the NogaleS- -Cananea railway which will penetrate the timber belt. From Divisaderos station, on the railway mentioned, it is but seven miles to the north ern line of the timber belt men, toned, and thence the lumber and timbers can b. distributed wher ever needed in Sonora and South. ern Arizona. Cananea, Bisbee, No gales, Douglas, Hermosillo, Guay- mas and other points that get their lumber now from California, Ore- gon or Texas, will be supplied from the timber belts of the Cocos- pera ranche.
 Even in development of the mines in the Pinto and Sierra Azul ranges of mountains, covered by the ranche, there will be made quite market for the lumber, timber, and meat products of Co cospera. Both the Sierra Azul and the Pinto mountains are known to be rich in mineral, and there are therein several of the dntigud mines that produced so richly in the days of Spanish occupation of Sonora. The recent find in the Buena Fortuna mine, which has attracted great attention, is in the Pinto Mountains, within the limits of the Cocospera-about its center In the Pinto mountains. are the Cerro Blanco and Columbia mining camps, which are also mines that have been producers, and may bt made so again. Of course the minerals in the rich regions sur. rounding and within the Cocos pera ranche, will work material advantage to the property itself for u ey will make home market for some of Its products.

FEN s. HILDReTH ExoNERATED.

Upon the direction of the attor- ney general of the United States, all cases in the federal court before Judge Kent charging Fen s. Hil- dreth with embezzlement while re- ceiver of the land office in Phoenix, were withdrawn and action dis missed. Two indictments had been returned against Mir. Hildreth sev- eral weeks ago by the federal grand jury on recommendation of U. $. Attorney J. L. B. Alexander. One of the cases was over an entry by Santiago Villa, a Mexican living near Tucson, and involved the sum of $50.
 Regarding this particular case, 1t is stated that in the final proof of this entry, as a portion of the land was on an abandoned military reservation, the entryman was re- quired to pay cash. Villa sent in $l06 p and he was credited on the unearned fee account with $56.25 and the balance was returned to him. The money was received in May, 1906, and returned on June 2, 1906. The proof of this entry was imperfect and Mir. Hildreth and MT. Moore, who was then register, denied the proof and gave the Mexican notice of thirty days, to show cause why this entry on the homestead should not be rejected as formal proceeding. Villa failed to reply in the thirty days, and a report was made to the com missioner of the land office, who cancelled the entry. Through Philip Contzen, Villas agent, his entry was reinstated later upon his showing that Villa was an illiterate Mexican who could not read nor write the English Ian, guage, and that he had not called for nor received his mail from the postotfice. Therefore the notice was never delivered to him, fact which he was willing to make oath 50 Mir. Wakefield, who was ther register, allowed the entry as a regular proof, for which the entry man was charged $3 10 as due the office. MT. Hildreth as receiver returned by official check the sun of $53.13, and Villa received tht money before the charge was mad, against the receiver.
 It Is further stated that Mir Alexander requested an inspector following the indictment, to be sen out from the department of the in terior at Washington. E. P. Hol comb of that department came tt Phoenix and spent three weeks il thorough examination of the case He made report to Secretar, Garfield to the effect that there wa nothing to the charges and tn, action was more personal thal official matter.

From time to time TIE OASIS has presented mention of the great Cocospera ranche, owned by Proto Brothers of Nogales, that lies east ward from the line of the Sonora railway, in the northern part of the Magdalena district of Sonora, and is reached with few hours travel from the line city. The northern limit of the great prop erty is but a few miles from the line of the new Nogales- Cananea branch of the Cananea, Rio Yaqui & Pacific Railway, and on the west the line of the ranche is but a few miles eastward from Imuris, station, on the Sonora railway, forty miles south from Nogales. The great area included, embracing more than a quarter of a million acres of land, is principality of itself, and is capable of being made the seat of several important in- dnstries, including cattle raising, to which it is now devoted in part, lumbering and mining. It includes two great grants of land, the Cocos- pera and the Santa Teresa, with titles direct from the Mexican gov ernment.
 The property IS watered finely by the Cocospera river, and it's con iiuents which furnish never fail ipg supply of water, sufficient to ifrigate all the arabic land in the Valley, now under cultivation.
