New York, june 9-Sol Rosenblalt
Chicago lawyer, has put the Mutual
Life Insurance company TO an eN-
pense et S900Na by having himself
nominated For q member Of the
board 81 trustees. All he had to do
under the New York state law was to
ger his nomination papers signed hy
100 policy holders.
His success IN this has made =
necessary to send ballots containing
the administration ticket and his op.
position ticket to all the 100000 pol
icy holders throughout the world.
The expense, great as II liz, il not
the only difficulty confronting the
officers OF the company, Experience
n the contest of 1907 shows that
many policy holders take occasion
20 inclose checks for premiums or
other correspondents of various sort
in the return envelopes, none 0f
which can BE opened until the date
seg for the counting of the ballots.
Bur little interests was shown in
the annual election OF the Mutual.
The work OF counting the ballots will
begin soon. All the retiring trustees
except Governor Wilson of New
Jersey and Emile q. Phillippi Of
Paris are candidates for reelection
on the administration ticket. John
] Mitchell and John G. Shedd. both
0f Chicago have been nominated I'd
take their place
The only opposition candidate is

The Sells-Floto Shows.

Thursday the great Sells -Floto shows, one of the greatest circus combinations and menageries trav- elling the country paid Nogales a visit and pitched its tents on the flat near the butte just north of the city limits. on the east side of the railroad. At II o'clock the street parade traversed the principal streets of the line city It was one Of the finest pageants ever seen anywhere, and the entire populace turned out to witness it's wonders. Everything was fresh and new, brilliant and attractive. Not the least attractive feature was the magnificent matched teams of six and eight heavy draft horses draw ing the heavy vans. One team of eight sOrrels, another of eight dapple greys, another of six blacks, all perfectly matched in action, size and color, attracted particular attention. Nor were they all. There were many more such fine turn outs. Then the saddle and per- forming horses were all handsome thoroughbreds. To the lover of fine horsehesh it was worth the price of admission to see the fine display of equine strength, beauty and symmetry displayed in the street pageant.
 At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the entrance to the great tent was thrown open, and the throng crowded in to look over and in- spect the fine aggregation of ani-

malls in the menagerie. At 8 o'clock the performance in the big tent began, and for two hours the crowd was entertained by continu- ouS performances in three rings and from a half dozen to ten stunts being pulled off all at once. Itwas bewildering succession of arenic events which kept Ie mind alert in noting and busy in comprehen- sion. After the performance there was the usual concert.
 At evening there was given another great performance, after which tents were struck, everything loaded aboard of the fine special train which is a part of the plant (including eight fine sleeping cars) -and started for Tucson, where the great aggregation performed yesterday afternoon and evening.

SANTA CRUZ COUNTY.
Bunch of Interesting Items From
 Various Points Throughout.

Mir. H. c. Hale of Patagonia who went to Ash Fork recently, has gone over to Williams.
 Mr. c. Hoake, from Cananea, is at Salero doing assessment work upon some mining claims he owns.
 The contract for the new work on the road from Nogales to Pata- gonia, between the Santa Cruz river and the Sonoita cahon, was let this week and work will begin at once. When completed the road will be shorter, over better grades and kept in condition more easily.
 A rich strike in the Four Metals mine is reported from that camp Tn the Patagonia mountains. It is m the new tunnel which has been pushing long distance through very hard and solid granite. On Tuesday the tunnel broke through into an ore body which is described as being of very high grade.
 Mir. Wm J. Partridge, manager for the Austerlitz Mining Company, writes THE OASIS that the item which appeared in its columns re gently with regard to that property was too modest entirely, both in the extent of the lode and the as say values of the ores. He states that he has had made in Tucson many assays by both Jacobs and Pellegrin, and they have given results of S57 per ton, and some Ot the ore goes as high as $500 per ton. Mir. Partridge states further that in running the tunnel he has cut l30 feet of lode matter. He considers the Austerlitz as one of the greatest gold mines in Amer ica. THE OASIS is pleased to make this correction Its former state ment came from one of those in- terested, and 1t is plain that he kept away within the actual facts.

FEDERAL TAXATION OF INCOMES IN
 SIGHT.

The recent upholding by the supreme court of the constitution
 ality of the corporation tax law has attracted renewed attention to the
 proposal to amend the constitution to authorize the enactment of a
 national income tax. The amend ment must be ratified by three fourths of the states, 35 in number,
 before 1t can become effective, and it is making substantial progress toward securing the necessary number. Up to this time it has received the approval of twenty-six states, or more than a majority. They are Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, South Carolina, Washington, Ore- gon, Idaho, Montana, Iowa, North Dakota, Nebraska, Nevada, Wis consin, Vermont, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Kentucky, Missouri, Georgia, Maryland, Maine and Mississippi.
 Seven states have rejected the amendment They are New York, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Virginia and West Virginia, in the east, and Arkansas and Utah in the south and west. There is, how ever, a growing sentiment in New York stale in favor of the amend ment, and 1t would not be surpris- ing if the legislature this year should change front and indorse it.
 But excluding these seven states, there are fourteen yet to record their position and nine of them must declare for the amendment if 1t is to be ratified. If the ratio of those for and against the amendment is kept up, and it is reasonable to ex- peet that it will be, more than ten of these fifteen states will vote for the amendment.
 Thus 1t seems that unless some. thing improbable happens the fed eral government will have power in the near future to tax incomes, and as soon as it acquires it there is no doubt that 1t will exer- else it. It is of course possible that if the question of the validity of an income tax law under the present were to come before the supreme court now it would reverse it's decision of seventeen years ago, which held that Congress had no right to levy an unappor- tioned income tax. But the safer, and probably the quicker, method is by amending the constitution, and that now appears to be- in ninhl

The limited field of its pictorial pos
sibilities proves that Easter, of all our
festival days, is the most vague and
shifting in our conception. 1t belongs
to all religions, although the pagans
invented it. Going back still farther
to the first spring, we can see Eve
choosing with pride a new green leaf
from the tree Ficus carica.
Now, the object of this critical ana
learned preamble is to set forth the
theOrem that Easter is neither date,
a season, a festival, holiday nor an
occasion What 1t is you shall find
out if you follow In the footsteps of
Danny McCree.
Easter Sunday dawned as it should,
bright and early, in it's place on the
calendar between Saturday and Mon
day. At 5:24 the sun rose, and at
1870 Danny followed its example, he
went into the kitchen and washed his
face at the sink. His mother was
frying bacon. She looked at his hard
smooth, knowing countenance as he
tuggled with the round cake of soar
and thought of his father when she
first saw him stopping hot groundel

EASY CHANGE When Coffee Is Doing Harm.

A lady writes from the land of cot ton of the results of 8 four years use of the food beverage-hot Postum.
 Ever since can remember we ad used coffee three times a day. It had a. more or less injurious effect upon us all, and myself suffered almost death from indigestion and nervousness caused by 1t.
 ..I know it was that, because when [ would leave.-it off for a few days I would feel better. But it was hard to give it up. even though I realized how harmful 1t was to ma.
 At Hast I found a perfectly easy way to make the change. Four years ago l abandoned the coffee habit and began to drink Postum, and also i'm fueneed the rest of the family to do the same. Even the children are aI- lowed to drink it freely as they do water. And it has done us all great good.
 T no longer suffer from indigestion, and my nerves are in admirable tone since I began to use Postum. We never use the old coffee any more.
 We appreciate Postum as delight .ful and healthfu1 beverage, which not ~enIy invigorates but supplies the best of nourishment as welI.'s Name given by Postum Go. Battle Creek, Mich
