begged, pleaded, bribed, threaten
ed, murdered, burned and condemned
to an eternal hell and the frown of
an eternal angry God as an induce
ment for It's acceptance and retention
of faith Why has this cry gone
forth that science is routing religion?
There Is not an accepted science to-
day that has adopted any of the
above inducements for it's accept
ance Suppose Darwin had gone over
the country begging for followers; or
Offering pay for believers and
threatening damnation to the disbe-
levers in his theory; supposed he had
asked kings and governors to put to
death such as would not accept it!
Suppose he had preached that the
rejecters Of his theory would be
damned to all eternity; ask would
not the necessity Of such tactics
rather lead to doubt in place of belief
in his theory among thinkers? !,
But we are told that all civilization
is founded on faith. True, 50 Is bar
barism. And let me tell you we never
became civilized until after we left
barbarism. And again let me tell you
that we never left barbarism until
after we departed from faith in it.
Once more let me tell you that we
never made that departure until after
we began 10 doubt such principles.
Again, there is no civilization and
never will be, that is entirely free
from barbarism therefore, and remem-
Der this, doubt always will be- one of
the saviors of the world.
To doubt is to investigate. To sup
press doubt from any other considera-
ton than evidence Is to suppress
thought and it's product, truth.

Faith and Doubt as Factors In
Civilization

Editor Courier;
Some time back noticed extracts
from a sermon in the Courier in which
the speaker induces his hearers to an
acceptance of faith as virtue and to
exclude doubt as an abomination.
This sermon, in this respect was not
remarkably different from thousands
Of others that may be heard from day
by day. All down the ages, quite
apart from the evidence, faith has been
pictured in angelic forms with beauti-
full wings and lily white robes while
doubt has been presented with forked
tail, split hoofs, angry claws and
treacherous teeth.
The fact of the matter is that faith
and doubt each have their place in the
realm Of thought and to exclude either
for the benefit Of the other without
regard to the evidence is to do vio-
lence to the laws Of thought. To in
duce us to sidetrack evidence for
the interest of either faith or doubt
through promise Of pay in this
world or any other, or through a
threat of punishment here or here
after would be to do violence to evil
dence equivalent to bribing jury
And it would be to make US mental
slaves. It would be to form league
with falsehood in order to murder
truth. All down the ages that form
OF Christianity followed by the masses

Extensive Development at the Sheehy
 and Other Camps.

SHEEHY CAMP, Feb. 18th, 1912. EDITOR OASIS:
 It being some time since 1 wrote to you relative to this camp l again take this opportunity of correspond ing and communicating through your much esteemed paper the progress that has been made since my last letter
 The Sheehy brothers resumed operations on the first of the new year and commenced sinking on shaft No. ? of the Glove mine which is proving a most wonderful success as to quality and quantity of carbonate and galena ores carry ing good values. At the depth of sixty-fve feet a crosscut was started to ascertain the width of the ore body and run fifteen feet to the south. After leaving the main pay streak of ore which is seven feet in width the whole gangue accompany ing the ledge is heavily impreg- mated with mineral. The shaft at present writing is ninety feet in depth and the ledge dipping into the main mountain at an angle of about fifteen degrees with very we'll defined tale gangue on foot and hanging wall.
 The formation is lime on the hanging wall and porphyritic granite on the foot wall, which is most generally: the formation of all the noted producing mines in Ari- zona. The great advantage in working this mine is that the ore requires very little sorting as it comes from the shaft and the ex- pense of hauling to the railroad is very reasonable, the road being down grade all the way, seven miles.
 A short time ago k T. Sheehy made very remarkable discovery
The oasis., 1912-02-24
Yours truly,
 JAMES CUNNINGHAM.

Monday and Tuesday Mir. Ernest F. Holt of Magdalena, was visitor at Nogales.
The oasis., 1912-02-24

about sixty feet from the shaft. He uncovered a four foot vein of car bonate and galena ore that from all appearances is equally as good if not better than the ore which is being taken from the shaft. It runs parallel with the ledge they are working on, in fact there are five distinct veins varying in width from five to seven feet running also parallel with the ledge at dis tances apart varying from one hundred to two hundred feet, heavily capped with iron hematite and impregnated with copper stain.
 At present there are about fifty tons of ore sacked and ready for shipment on the dump. The ore wagons commenced hauling on the 14th.
 According to the way the Glove mine in the Sheehy. .ODonnsi group is improving as to permanency and extent it will in time be one of the noted producers of Arizona.
 It would be a great advantage to the ore shippers and the surround ing country if the Southern Pacific railroad would erect a platform at Chavez station for the loading of ores and produce from the various ranches, as at present everything has got to be handled from he ground onto the cars; and freight unloaded, merchandise or whatever 1t may be, is left alongside of the track with no protection against cattle or what wayfarers that may come along, or rain or such like.
 Mir. Allen is driving a tunnel in the old workings on Mineral Hill and expects to cut the ore body he has been shipping from.
 Messrs. Daniels < Company are working on a wagon road to con meet the Elephants Head group of of mines with the railroad for the purpose of hauling ore to the rail- road and machinery to the mines, which gives a tone to the western slope slope of the Santa Rita mountains.
 Yours truly,
