WHEN SLATER FLoURIsHED.

When Governor Pattison, sick
sick man that he was, wanted Mark
Slater put out of the office Of public
printer, 1t became necessary to pry
him out and change the lock on the
door to keep him.
Slater knew when he was so stub.
bornly resisted removal what DEM
ocratic administration would find IN
his office,-that Governor Herrick
neither saw nor seemed to care
about seeing.
Then followed the persecution of
]. w. Johnson, editor of the Waverly
Democrat, whom Governor Pattison
appointed public printer in Slater's
place. The most brazen sort of rog-
uery was rssorted to in the attempt
to disgrace Johnson and disposess
from the Office. Many people no
doubt remember the trumped-up
charges of threatening letters over
| forged or false signatures and the in
dictment of Johnson thereon by a
Franklin County grand jury. For at
the time Franklin county had Re-
publican prosecuting attorney.
After Governor Pattison's death,
the attack upon Johnson was renew
ed with redoubled fury to put John
son out and put Mark Slater back In.
And Notwithstanding the fact that
the first indictment against Johnson
was kicked out of court uncerem on
iuosly being recognized as a speci-
men Of political black hand brigand-
age. Johnson was again indicted by
Franklin county grand jury, on the
advice of che same Republican pros
ecuting attorney and on the same
trumped-up charges.
Now Mark Slater languishes In the
Franklin county Jail under indict-
ments charging gross offenses against
the state. And the same prosecut-
ing attorney who advised the former
indictments against Johnson, took
the testimony first submitted to the
Beatty probe committee of the leg
islature and advised the Franklin
county grand jury to return indlct.
ments against Slater thereupon
You see he indicted the wrong man
in the first place.
Verify, Justice travels with 8
leaden heel, but strlks with an iror
hand"-but neither Governor Her,
rick nor Governor Harris caused this
slow-paced avenger to overtake oil
strike blow at Slater, and Wade
Ellis was attorney general of Ohio
all the while chat Herrick and Har'
rls served in the Office Of governor.

WHERE THE RESPONSIBILITY.

Wltn regard tO the recent ITouUloe in Mexico THE OASIS has had noth- ing to present: and purposely. Much of what has gone out is positively i llse, so much more is exaggerated grossly, and so many rumors of all kinds are in the air, that to siege and publish any of them would be but fan the flame ofalarm that has spread everywhere in the United States among those having inter- ests and investments in Mexico and among those who are contem- plating making such interests and acquiring such investments. Already has been checked by the alarming stories circulated the win
 ter tide of travel-investors and
 homeseeker-that had set in to Sonora and the West Coast of Mexico. Two weeks ago every evening two Pullman sleeping cars filled with passengers crossed the line at Nogales and proceeded on down the Coast The greater part of these people are investors. Fri day evening two weeks ago the two sleepers crossed the line with one passenger Thursday evening there were three. 1t is needless to say that everybody engaged in business along the line feels the paralysis in business of which the facts related are eloquent evidence. There is no good in publishing and wiring that everything is quiet in Sonora and along the West Coast of Mexico. Letters and telegrams are coming daily cancelling engagements and calling off deals that were material izing and would have brought into the country to quicken the wheels of industry many thousand dollars that now may never come. Far and wide there has been spread an alarming and utterly false press telegram that emanated from Tomb stone, alleging that "reyolutionists" had shipped into Sonora from Ari- zona points large quantities of arms and ammunition with which they were armlng the Yaquis. The baleful influence of that one tele- gram outweighs the effect of a thousand letters to the contrary written by men doing business in Sonora, having full knowledge of all the circumstances and striving to allay alarm. A correspondent at Douglas, and another at Bisbee have been putting out lot of alarming yet untrue information. The Douglas and Bisbee newspapers nave printed a lot of rot about movements of troops, tales of trav- ellers, etc., that to one acquainted with the geography of the country and the lay of the land, are seen at glance to be not only highly i'm probable but positively impossible.
