Question Of Jurisdiction.

BALTIMORE. MD, Nov. 1-Con-
siderable discussion Of the kind Of
Jurisdiction to be exercised by tho
three American prelates just honored
with the title OF cardinal u being
heard. Some Of the opinions have
held that four American cardinals Will
exercise jurisdiction over the United
States Jointly AZ q house OF cardinals.
SAN another IL that the United
and that each cardinal will have ex-
elusive jurisdiction over one division.
These varying opinions heard from
various sources were SGT at rest to-
day by q priest who IL close to Car
dinal GibbonA He explained that tho
title OF cardinal carries with It no
additional Jurisdiction. and that
Archbishop Farley. Of New York. ono
OF the honored prelates. win continue
to exercise his present Jurisdiction as
archbishop Of the see Of New York.
and that Archbishop O'Connell Will
do tho sanse over the Boston diocese.
Archbishop Diomede Faiconio win 90
to Rome and will no longer BE-
member OF the American hierarchy.
Cardinal Gibbons at present exer-
cises the Jurisdiction OF archbishop OF
Baltimore, and he will continue In
that function.
Tribute to American Catholics.
The United States will have three
cardinals, which means that when
the college Of cardinals meets to elect
Z Pope that there will be q larger
number OF American cardinals to cast
q ballot for successor to the throne
Of st. Peter. than has heretofore been
the case. In other words. the vatican
has paid Catholic Americans y COM
pliment by giving more than one Of
its prelates the privilege OF voting for
q Pope and to be numbered among
the princes OF the church. Hitherto
that privilege has been enjoyed by
Cardinal Gibbons alone.
1t 10 asked win Cardinal Gibbons
ns the head Of the primatial see. pre-
side at tho council 1t Was explain
ed that supremacy OF one cardinal
over another win be purely one Of
seniority. However. should council
meeting be held for instance In New
York, doubtless the archbishop Of that
Sec would preside. This would be q
matter Of custom and not one that
involves any question of supremacy
or Jurisdiction.
In tho far distant future an Amer.
lean cardinal may occupy the throne
of st. Peter. But II has beon whis-
pered in moro than one quarter and
authentic quarters at that. tho next
Pope will be Cardinal Rampolla.

having taken it's start in 1881. The first to locate here, as related to TIE OASIS by one of the oldest inhabitants, were two persons whose names the informant did not remember and they set up two tents on the property now occupied by the Breen building, on Morley avenue, next to the Montezuma hotel. Next came John T. Brick wood who erected on the property where stands now the Brickwood block and hotel, frame building he had moved over from Harshaw. Then came John Nelson, who put up frame building where stands now the Montezuma, which he con. ducted even then as a hotel. After ward 1t was destroyed by fire and Mir. Nelson replaced the building with a part of the present stone structure, which has since been enlarged and improved by later owners.
 The New Mexico & Arizona rail- way from Benson and the Sonora railway from Guaymas were then building toward the international line, and those who located here did 80 on faith that the crossing place could not fail to be an i'm portant town. The plans of the Santa Fe system, to which the two railroads building belonged at that time, contemplated making a div ision terminal point at Calabasas, ten miles north from Nogales, where there sprang quite town; but when it was announced that the Mexican government would in- sist upon all trains originating at the line, Nogales became very naturally the division terminus, and Calabasas got up at once and moved, giving to the line city a decided impetus in population and importance, and marking the wis dom and good sense of those who located at the line in the first place.
 NAMED WALNUTs.
 At the beginning there was a grove of walnut trees in what is now the Elm street cafion, and they gave to the place the name by which is now known, the word "Nogal" being the Spanish name for the walnut tree, and "Nogales" being it's plural.
 In November, 1884, the railways were completed, and the silver spike, making the connection oi the rails at the line was driven by Mrs. William P. Morley, wife oi the division engineer in charge of construction, in whose honor Nor. ley avenue bears it's name.
 GROWTH OF POPULATION.
 With the opening of traffic on the railway the town grew apace and the next United States census taken, in 1890, showed a popula' tion in Nogales, Arizona, of 1194 Ten years later, the Twelfth Cen. sus, taken in 1900 showed an ad. vance to 1761, an increase of more than 6296. The Thirteenth Census 1910, shows that in the last decade the town nearly doubled in pop ulation, reaching an enumeration of 3514, and an increase of more than 993%-plus; The only city or town in Arizona which man, ifested greater increase between the Twelfth and the Thirteenth Census is Phoenix which is credited

 The foregoing presents the growth of Nogales, Arizona, only. It should not be forgotten that just across the width of a single street Is the municipality of Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, a town which started at the same time, and has grown with the growth of its companion keeping pace in population, pro- gress and improvement, the two moving along hand in hand; and while existing as two municipal ities they are practically one city with a total population of about 1000. This growth and prosperity is based upon the development of Santa Cruz county, Arizona; Mag dalena and Altar districts in So- nora; and the general development of the West Coast of Mexico, 10 which Nogales is an important gateway.
 FOUR LINES OF RAILWAY.
 The line city is connected with and given access to the outside world by four lines of railway, all parts of the great Southern Pacific system, viz: The New Mexico & Arizona railroad from Nogales to Benson, Arizona; the Tucson & Nogales railroad from Nogales to Tucson; the Cananea Rio Yaqui & Pacific Railway, Nogales to Ca- nanea, Sonora; the Sonora railway, Nogales to Guaymas, Sonora. The two latter are part of the Southern Pacific of Mexico, which has ex- tended its line and will be run hing trains on the first of January to Topic, in the territory of the same name, about 1000 miles distant from the line city. Beyond Topic to Guadalajara, there re. mains a gap of about 150 miles of heavy mountain construction which will be completed within three years, when Nogales will have direct rail connection with the interior of Mexico, and with all parts of the republic over the National system of railways, 8 branch of which terminates al Guadalajara. The plans of the Southern Pacific of Mexico, con template extension of it's own lint to the City of Mexico, some 35( miles distant from Guadalalara From Corral. a junction about sixty miles from Guaymas branch lint of the Cananea Rio Yaqui x Pacific extends up the Yaqui river tc Tonichi, about 100 miles, openins rich mineral region Extension of this line northward to Cananea is part of the general plan.
 In the Yaqui delta, below Go rral, is great irrigation enterpris, that is retaining more than 1, half million acres of land. II the valley of the Sonora river about Hermosillo, and in the del tas of the rivers of the state o Sinaloa, there are many such en terprises, all of which have to b reached via Nogales; and the pro ducts of their rich and fertile lands seeking markets in the cities o the United States, have to ente at this gateway.

a ROTTEN DEPARTMENT.

Although the Moss committee, ap-
pointed by the house to investigate
existing conditions in the department
of agriculture, has not yet completed
its labors, enough has been unearth-
ed to satisfythe public that the food
dopers are in control and that com
plete reorganization of the depart
ment should not be delayed.
We trust that Secretary Wilson
may be able to satisfy the Presi-
dent that he is not responsible for
the present dominance of the food
/ prisoners, because he has unquestion.
ably done much to promote the agri-
cultural interests of the country
While expressing this hope, it is
unreasonable to expect President
Taft to stand by his secretary, unless
his secretary has kept him advised
and that present conditions represen
the wishes and desires of both O
these officials
In any event the house Of represen
tatives can be relied upon to correc
the abuses in Secretary Wilson's de
partment.
There will be no more money ap
propriated for that department un
til whole brood of abuses are lin
ed up and marched out without re
turn tickets.
