one man who voted for acquittal; and two are alleged to have had scruples against in- hiction of the death penalty, al- though they denied them under examination as to their qualitica- tions to sit as jurors in the trial of the case.
 There is extraneous evidence which is no part of the case and could not be introduced that the two murderers had confederates who were awaiting them with sad dle horses not far away from the scene of the crime. The two, with two others, were seen riding horse back toward the home of one of the murderers near Calabasas, about nine o'clock in the morning the murder was committed. They had been awaiting with the hcrses, and when the bloody work was done the murderers joined them. The accepted theory is that when tht mounts were located and secured the entire quartette rode around to the scene of the murder. Find ing one of the victims gone, anC realizing that they had failed il killing him, and that he migh prove witness against them, the, conceived the idea of diverting tn
 venue by carrying the bodies acros
 the line into Mexico, where the.
 were found but about one hundre,
 yards distant from the spot wher . the homicide was committed. Tn
 four could have taken up in
 saddle blancket and carried body f without leaving any trace.

LAST Monday there came from Washington the news that the President has expressed willing ness that the enabling act shall be amended by Congress so it may relieve him of the responsibility of passing upon the Arizona con stitution, and that such a measure would meet his approval. A strong effort will be made to get through Congress such a measure. No doubt it will pass the House, and it may get beyond the un- animous consent obstacle in the Senate. That remains to be seen. THE OASIS may be mistaken, but | it believes there are a number oi Senators who will not consent at this time to making three additional democratic electoral votes to be cast in November next year. This editor has made a wager on that point with Colonel Pickett. ThaJ gentleman bets that Arizona vii
 be a full fedged state by the frst of January next. If he wins the editor will deposit on that day tht amount of the bet in the First Ma
 tional Bank of Nogales subject tC Col. Pickett's order.

ABOUT TIME.

For a long time it has been felt that Santa Cruz county luries have
 been remiss in the matter of fixing the death penalty upon murderers; and when the jury in the Franco case Wednesday evening returned
 a verdict of murder in the first de-
 gree and fixed upon the defendant
 the penalty of death there spread all through the community a senti- ment that the jury had done its full duty; while there were heard on all sides expressions of belief that had the jury in the lslas and Saldate, case, which had returned its verdict but eight hours before, found the same kind of verdict, Arizona and Santa Cruz county would have been rid forever of three men who can be spared easily, and life and property made more secure. The list of shocking crimes that have gone inadequately punished through the mistaken clemency of juries, which have the province of fixing the degree of the crime of homicide, and fixing the penalty when they pronounce the first degree, is startling in the ex. treme. Add to that long list Oi mysterious murders that have been committed in Nogales and along the Santa Cruz river, without de- lection and apprehension of the murderers, and there is presented a record that is appalling. For long time public sentiment has fel
 that two or three legal executions were needed as a deterrent; bu
 trial juries seemed to fail alwayt to rise to the magnitude of th' situation. This week there were presented two opportunities fo
 iuries to rise to the occasion, wip
 out the stain upon the the escutch con of justice in Santa Cruz county and put the fear of the law in tn
 hearts of the murderous elemen running at large throughout tn county. One jury arose to the oc

upon Franco. The other one failed miserably, and give life sentence only to two of the most cold blood ed and dastardly murderers who ever stretched hemp or sat in an electric chair. Never was evidence more straight and clear of premedi- tated and cold blooded murder than in the Islas Saldate case. The two men contracted to pilot into the United States four Chinamen who had come to the line to make their way, into the country, and for the sake of the little money on their persons they had murdered ruth lessly their trusting charges. The evidence was direct and there was
 no way to escape it's force. One Chinaman in Nogales, Sonora, had
 hired one of these men to pilot the
 bunch into the United States and
 he identified the man he hired
 That Chinaman put the four into
 the charge of another who took
 them in a hack a part of the dis tance to the trysting place and
 walking them the rest of the way
 he found awaiting their charges
 both men, and he identified them
 both. One of the four Chinese
 they left for dead described the
 murderous attack and identified
 both of the murderers. All the iden ti6cations noted were fastened
 positively upon the same two mer
 and there was no way to eseap'
 their force. The alibi they at
 tempted was the thinnest pretence
 What was testified by the most o
 the alibi witness could have beeI
 true without having hindered thei
 making the trip described an committing the murders. And tn
 testimony of their own wives tha they were at home, ten and fou miles away respectively at the tim they started out with the fou Chinamen from Nogales, Sonor' and remained at home all nigt was destroyed by the testimony : the Chinese storekeeper in Nogale Arizona, where they had left the l guns, to the effect that they ha 7 gone to that store and got the weapons just few minutes befol g they went to meet their murderor tryst in Nogales, Sonora.
 And even without the disproof t their alibis given by the merchal s and his clerks the letters, produce t in evidence, they wrote from the la S to their wives instructing what e testify, and what to get others
 e testify would have been sufficie r to destroy any alibi that cou e have been concocted. And u r. spot where the murder was COT ', mitted was located positively wit e in Santa Cruz County, Territo t of Arizona. Yet in the face of 2 e that overwhelming testimony the

FADS AND FASHIONS

Bordered fabrics are in great favor
this season and the shops show a
great variety OF them. Not only are
there striped effects, but plain silks
with checked borders, bands in exquis-
ite Persian designs and notified flow
cred effects that are decidedly new.
These silks are exceptionally wide, so
that the question of the skirt is prac-
tically solved. For very tall women
the yoke effect now comes TO the res
cue.
Buttons are to be much used in
trimming spring and summer frocks.
Molds covered with lace, satin and
velvet, crocheted buttons, enameled
disks and all kinds of unusual combi-
nations of materials are in vogue
Large and small turbans of supple
straw, handmade, are being shown in
the shops. The crows are high and
the trimming makes them more So
Small bonnetS of silk are also dis
played. They are of the early Victor
ian shape. The brim is "scooped'
and very close fitting. Draped crowns
projecting toward the back are used
These full, soft crowns allow for the
present mode of hair dressing.
