culated the amount of carpet required
to carpet the sitting room and parlor
OF each home from which the pupils
came. The loss in matching patterns
was considered. The class then went

study wall paper patterns and calcu-

sidered worth while. Throughout
The year everyday problems will be

MIsDlREcTE0 PHILANTHROPY.

Andrew Carnegie has come again into the limeIight with a princely benefaction to add to the already misdirected millions he has devoted to impractical and barren philan- thropy. This time his beneicence is directed toward propagation of peace among the nations, and is in the form of donation to the Hague tribunal to be devoted to it's work. Were Mr. Carnegie 10 devote his wealth to promotion of industrial reace within the nations he would be doing mankind far greater service. War between na- tions does not occur very frequent ly as time goes. But industrial

families had paid out and received the fee simple to their homes, there would be another dozen homes built, occupied and paying out to build yet more homes. Just by the secretion of interest the original fund would be growing constantly, and building more homes. Each one would be a monument to Mir. Carnegie's muni6cence and benef- cence that would be far more reach- ing than the library that bears his name. It might not be so impos- ing, but it would be of more real service to those beneath it's shelter and more value to the community. It would create an independent, thrifty, home owning, taxpaying family, with a stake in the com munity, and an incentive to im- prove yet farther their conditions. In the course of couple of gener- ations there would be more people housed comfortably in Tucson than could be crowded into the Carnegie library, all standing.
 From the same point of view the donation of ten million dollars to promote peace among the nations is misdirected, when the money could be devoted to so much better use in promotion of industrial
 peace. Take from men their greed
 and hoggishness and those two
 very human traits will disappear
 from among the nations.
The oasis., 1911-01-07

hosullIles exist always; and when nations go to war they are inn pelled generally by the same spirit which causes industrial difficulties within a nation and among the people of country-simple and unadulterated greed.
 Mir. Carnegie's benefactions are all comparatively improbable, and from a utilitaran point of view his beneicence is misdirected grossly. With a lavish hand he has scat tered all over the land costly and Imposing structures filled with books that are read and utilized by very. few persons-comparatively. y. Had Mir. Carnegie put into build ing and loan endowment fund to enable industrious and worthy workers to build and own their own homes, the same amount of money in each town or city where he has established a library that he has put into the latter, he would have established in each place a benefaction which would have benefited more people, and would have been widening constantly in it's effect and results. Take Tucson as an instance. Put into a build. ing and loan endowment the $25.. GOO would have built dozen com fortable dwellings, and housed nicely dozen families-sixty people. The money those dozer families would pay into the funC each month-bnt little more thar rent-would more than build an other such house each year, anC add to the number enjoying th' real benefit of the benefaction; anC by the time the original dozel

"THE OASIS" ARGUMENT coUNrERED.

One day this week THE OASIS editor met an old friend whom he has known intimately ever since he came to Nogales, an old line republican who usually follows his party through thick and thin, who said:
 Il have read the proposed con- stitution for Arizona, and l think it is a pretty good instrument; and as I want to see Arizona state l shall vote for it,"
 The editor advanced his objec- ton to the provision which extends the recall to the judiciary. Where upon the old line republican said
 "Now 1 read your argument against the recall last week, and 1 consider it a very clear presenta ton of the case from one point ol view Let me give you a state ment from another point of view You recollect when John Dessart and L. F. Swain wrecked the Inter natinnal Bank2 Well at that time Judge Davis appointed Fred Her. rera receiver at $l0 per day, and kept him in the place until that per diem and legal fees in useless and unnecessary suits agains insolvent people who had borrowed money from the bank absorbed al the assets that Dessart did not take until depositors got only five pc cent of their money. Then besid, that when a grand jury was called in regular term of court with Dessart and Swain pres ent for appearance, Judge Davi took fright over faxed small po' scare in the jail, dismissed tn grand jury, permitted Dessart an' Swain to go on bonds that were n good; and they have never beel brought to justice. You recollec all of that don't you? We'll, ther had Arizona been state at tha time, with a constitution like tn one now before her people, Judg Davis would have been recalled s
The oasis., 1911-01-07

quick it would have made hls head swim.
 And you recollect that in fixing bail for Dessart and Swain, after the grand jury was dismissed. Justice Ashley came into the case somehow. When the two bankers were held to the grand jury they gave good bonds. When the court adjourned without action by the grand jury the bondsmen were re- leased, anu there had 60 be a new bond. Judge Davis, if 1 remember correctly, ordered such new bond approved by Justice Ashley; and he approved a bond which was worthless. Don't you think that the recall would have been worked on Ashley if the people had a chance? And wouldn't it have been right?
 And l believe that when the same Judge Davis declared un- constitutional a just assessment of the Copper Queen property in Co chise county had the people oi that county possessed the right oi recall they would have exercised it upon him.
 Judge Davis can be cited to em- phasize another good point in the constitution now before the people of ArizOna-the direct primary After he left the bench in Arizona he went to Los Angeles, and ht had not been there very long wher one of the superior judges there died, and Davis was boosted into the vacancy. We'll, when the tern of the dead jurist expired anc Davis went before the people fo nomination for a full term on bi own account, the republicans 0 Los Angeles turned him down il the direct primary.
 "So you see there is a great dea to be said in favor of extending th recall to the judges, and for direct primary"
 Now what could the editor sa, to so pointed an argument as tn one advanced by the old lin republican,
