MIRA MONTE SANITARIUM.
M setlng With Great Success and Ef- feetiug Remarkable Cures, Draw
 Ing Patients From Afar.

TIE OASIS is pleased to chronicle the fact that the Mira Monte Sani- tarium, which was established at Nogales last year by Doctors A. L. Gustetter and H. W. Purdy, mak- Ing application of the new milk cure, is meeting unqualified success, and has effected some remarkable cares. Some weeks ago there came up from Mazatian Mir Campbell, a gentleman known we'll to the travelling public on the West Coast of Mexico, as a conductor ou the Southern Pacific running out ol the Sinaloa metropolis, who was suffering from a serious com piication of deseases, which had affected him so he had been obliged to quit his employment and seek health in other climes, going to his former home ia the East, and in other parts of the United States, but without avail. Not long ago he returned to Sinaloa, but his condition was still precarious. A friend who had heard of the sanitarium at Nogales induced him to give 1t trial, and he came to the line city some six weeks or so ago to submit to the treatment. It was applied faithfully, and last week the gentleman was dis charged cured, looking the very picture of ruddy health, and sound and hearty as lad.
 Doctor Purdy, himself, one of the proprietors of the sanitarium had been suffering many months from a complication of diseases, and he went about the streets looking more like living skeleton or an automatic cadaver than like healthy individual. Recently he has taken the cure, and this week he was discharged, in fine health and looking better than he has looked in many years.
 Mrs. B. NJ. Ashby, whose pre-. carious condition of health has been known in Nogales many years has become patient at the sani- tarium within a couple of weeks, and the treatment has made a marked improvement already, with every prospect of her complete restoration to health. And new patient, who arrived last week came all the way from the City of Mex leo to take the treatment.
 long list could be mentioned of similar cases in which patients have been treated very successful ly, but those mentioned will suffice So great is the demand on the institution that another pavilion has been erected for accommoda ton of patients, and third is contemplated
 As has been explained in THE OASIS heretofore, the treatment i: very simple, and omits drugs al most entireIy-in many cases com. pletely. It includes absolute rest, fresh air and a diet of pure, rict milk, from thoroughbred COW; belonging to the institution. The wards are in pavilion, open to the air upon all sides. protected with wire screens. These pavilions are located in quiet little cove in tht hills on the northeast side of tht town, where they are sheltered from winds from whatever direc ton, and the air is calm always nure fresh and inyipOrating.

line. if certain California water power was to be developed and util- ized. Had any one owned the prop erty save the federal government alone, the right-of-woy needed for the purpose could have been con jemned and taken.
 But because the government owned the property the consent of congress was necessary; and congress refuses to give the consent in order that members can pose as the opponents of some mythical power trust.
 It is evident that the water power was needed or no attempt would be made to utilize it; the people of Cali fornia needed it: they are able to protect themselves; certainly they wish to see their resources developed and utilized; but because the federal government is large land owner in ne :1ate they must see their devei onmcnt instructed in this manner, merely fer the sake Of obstruction. This is the real article of Pinchotism. Seattle Post tIntelligencer.

THE PACK MULE IN MEXICO.

It is only in recent times that for before the Diaz administration none of the mines were served with railroads. One admires the skill of the pioneers in transporting their machinery and supplies over noun tlins and across rivers. For years the heavy pieces were dragged from Vera Cruz into the mines in the in terior Long experience with these difficult conditions have made the Mexicans most expert in handling freight with pack animals over mountain trails. In a very noun tainous section of Mexico, with which am acquainted, freight is handled with pack animals for just under ] cent a pound from the railroad ter minal to the mine forty miles away. In the United States, under like conditions. the cost would he at least twice as much.
 There is considerable competition for the business among the MeXi- cans. for this is one of their fa- vOrite ways Of making q living, and this accounts for the low cost. The animals are broken in for the work as soon as they are strong enough, and. as they are so well trained, one man can look after a large number These men seem to know tO q straw what each animal can carry l have seen a mule stagger up mountain trail under load that you would think would break his back. but somehow he gets to his destination with his burden and lives to make many such trips. Now and then. however. an animal will stumbled with his cargo in bad section of the trail. and fall over the precipicc to certain destruction in the valley below To recover the cargo is a difficult ask, and as a rule the men leave the mule and his load at the bottom of the canyon.
 A load of 300 pounds is consid- cred fair cargo for Mexican mule. Some of these animals have performed remarkable feats. carry ing loads of 400 to 500 pounds over mountain trails. To get heavy pieces of machinery to these out of the way mines is very difficult task If the piece weighs 300 pounds and over. it is sometimes swung between two animals or it may he dragged on the ground. Sometimes large number of men are harnessed to a very heavy piece of machinery to drag it to the mine, and, just as Napoleon got his cannons over the Pvrenees., SD these men get the ma chincry to the mine. But 1t k d very slow and expensive method.-T. Lane Carter, in Engineering Maga- zine.

of the color of the skin. The negro is darker than were his ancestors. The type is of softer and more :elVety black than the CongOlese; and the peculiar softness of color is ac- Companied by features of less prom inent African type while the hair is less WoOl-Iike.
 It is not easy to account for all the pecuiarities of this last type They may be due in part to a change in the conditions of life and ii part to the weakening of racial qualities In general the American negro iS less strong than the primitive negro lnj he has less endurance than tine negro slave.

CHECKING PACIFIC COAST DE
 VECOPMENT.

T. iS noticed that, with but d small fraction Of The members present, the house of representatives m congress refused to grant to a California com pany the right of way for it's pipe line through a forest reserve m that sta'e. There was much talk about a powerful lobby" urging the measure. that the company was a portion of the mythical power trust" and the like: but it never seems to have struck the democrats in congress. when they voted as they did, that the matters about which they pro- fessed such interest were matters strictly of the concern of the people of California
 In California, as in other west ern states, who have a keen regard for the interests of the people. all waters. water powers ana water rights belong to the state-to the people of the state. None of these rights attaches to the soil by ri- parian ownership. as they do in the older states. The people of Califor- mia prescribe the terms ana conditions upon which water can be used for power purposes or for irriga tion. They are at the mercy of no power trust nor can they ever be so long as they are permitted to control their own affairs.
 The federal government had no concern in the matter save that it was the owner, as a nonresident landlord of a piece of land which it was necessary to cross with pipe

At this rate the opposition to the president will have entirely evaporatcd by the time the date for the convention arrives.

A Wise Project.

The proposition recently advanced. that the city council and the county board of supervisors sell the property on which the city and Ccunty build ,nes now stand and purchase the Central School site for the purpose of erecting a connexions block for the use Of both tho ty and the county. will. in the iudslnent of thls newspaper. meet with the unqualified approval of q large majority of those who have the best interests Q; PhOe- nix at heart For one thing th. two hlocks on Washington suce'. where the public buildings now stand. have g. Nn so enormously in Vaue that II would seem poor business policy for the county and city to hold them longer They have hecona iuXurit s And in addition tO the fact that both tn" city and county would Sain inn mersely by the Gca'. :hcre is rAe further consideration that the growth of the city. right in the center Of it's business activities. Is heinz ser iously retarded by the elimination of two Of the best building sites "n Washington street.
 Then. there is another cOnsidera- ton. The Central School site is a most excellent one for this purpose And if the city and county act to- gether in the erection of a handsome md substantial structure. they can secure quarters for their officials for % much less sum than could be done if they acted separately.
 Furthermore the carrying out Of this plan would mean more business houses and better business houses in the down town section. And that will not, as might appear at first blush. work to the injury of any es- abolished business. The history of all cities is against that idea. More buildings and better buildings mean more trade. There is not an estab- lished business in this city but will ne helped by the carrying out of this plan
 But if it is carried out there is one feature that should be given careful attention. Whatever profit accrues from the sale of these Wash ington street properties should accrue to the city and the county No one should be given the opportunity to speculate on the sale of this land. have not now the authority. they should be given the authority to cut mp the two blocks into small parcels. or into lots, and sell them separately. They should have whatever profit can he made from the trans action. There should be no intermediary.
 The Republican is most heartily in favor of the sale of the Washington street grounds and the erection of the public buildings on the Central School site. And it believes that the author ities cannot act too quickly in carry ing the plan to completion.
