sReada able Items from the Cattle Ranges
 of Arizona.

Coconino Sun: Several thousand head of cattle were lost in the re- cent storm in the eastern part of New Mexico and the Panhandle of Texas. Several cowboys who went out look after stock were caught in the blizzard and were frozen to death.
 Coconino Sun: There Is rejoi- Cing throughout the northern part of the state over the recent snow and rains and trom the smile that the stOckmen are carrying around one naturally concludes that the prospect for another good year in this section is part of the pro- gram.
 Globe Belt: The cattle industry continues to boom in this section of the west. William Parks has just bought 1900 head of cattle from the Perkins Brothers ranch at Pleasant Valley for spring delivery. 1t is understood that the purchase price was in the neighborhood of $40,000. MT. Parks has also taken an option on the ranch. He said yesterday that even though the majority of cattle had been sold from off the ranges there were several parties negotiat- ing for the buying and leasing of the various ranches in Gila county which would be re-stocked. He said that these parties who at present would not care to have their names mentioned were east ern and middle west capitalists and were ready to take over all ranches in this vicinity and would import cattle from other ranges with which to re-stock them.
 Phoenix Gazette: Acquisition papers on the governor of New Mexico have been asked by County Attorney J E Crosby of Navajo county. These are for Young Mar ley. charged with cattle stealing and now detained at Roswell, N. NJ. Marley and his brother are charged by the Cattle Growers as sociation with stealing and selling cattle from the ranges in Coconino county. One of the brothers is in custody and young Marley was located at Roswell, where he was taken in custody. Crosby made request of Governor Hunt for pa. pers and the governor telegraphed the governor of New Mexico asking that the sheriff be instructed to hold Marley until the arrival of the papers. He received word from New Mexico's executive that he had done as requested, but late yesterday afternoon Crosby tel egraphed here that Marley had waived extradition and would come without the necessary papers. The association has determined that rustling must be stopped and have employed R. M. Ling to assist the state in the prosecution.

IT HAD TO BE DONE.

: Four or five weeks ago, in com
 menting upon the increase made in the rates charged by the town board, THE OASIS explained that such raise was necessary in order to meet the running expense of the plant, and if not in rates, the deficit and interest would have to be raised by tax levied upon prop erty. In the article now cited it was intimated that the increase in water rates would not suffice, and that taxation would have to be resorted to meet the interest in part at least. That was just what occurred. Taxpayers receiving mo- tice of their town taxes now due found that the charge for 1912 rising we'll toward double what it was for 1911, the rate increasing from $1 on the $100 to $1 60
 To this great increa SC there is raised considerab ble complaint, just as there was complaint about the advance in water rates. But THE OASIS has failed to see why the town board should be blamed, or why any individual member should be censured. The interest on the water and sewer bonds has to be paid, or go by default. No one in No- gales wants to see the latter alter native invoked. So the only course to pursue was to raise the money by taxation. It should not be for gotton that the taxpayers oi Nogales, by tremendous majority (about six to one) voted for bond issue for water and sewers. Those who voted yes on the two proposi tions have now what they wanted on the water, and will have nex' year what they desire in sewers Surely they are shut off from com plaining at having to stand theiI share of the cost. Those who voted no are not complaining. They are like the man with the balC

A NOTABLE VICTORY.

It is with no small satisfaction that THE OASIS extends congra- tulations to the women of Arizona in general and Santa Cruz county in particular, upon the full measure of success they have attained in their efforts to secure equal rights of citizenship. Since it was estab- lished, now nineteen and one-half years ago, THE OASIS has been an earnest and consistent advocate of the demand of the women that they should be accorded the full rights of citizenship; and every time the issue has been presented this journal has done all it could to secure those rights. Now that the boon desired has been achieved and by majority 80 unmistakable (about two to one on the total vote, this newspaper feels that 1t has right to be jubilant, and to extend its congratulations to it's successful fellow workers in a great and noble cause.
 This journal desires also to con graduate the men of Santa Cruz, and to thank them on behalf of ! the ladies who conducted the can vass for equal rights in their coun- ty, upon the whole heartedness with which they responded to the appeal made, and upon the splend- i'd majority rolled up for their amendment. With the returns now at hand the vote in the county was 235 to 120; nearly two to one It is believed that the four pre-. cincts from which returns have not been received at this writing will make mo material change in the total vote cast either way. Al it stands the constitutional amend ment carries Santa Cruz by abou the same proportion of the vote that prevailed in the other counties in the state. It was a notable victory.
