REPUBLICANS BARRED.

Every position in Arizona held by Republican belongs by right to Demo- craU, and this paper, as far as its influ- ence goes, is in favor of putting Demo- crats in positions The Democrats of Arizona voted for a change from Repub- lican to Democratic, and the only honest thing is for Democratic officials to OBEY THE MANDATES OF THE VOTERS. Nothing doing, Mir. Republican, out you must go.-Arizona Democrat.

 Now, in the matter of the con. tract THE OASIS does not deny that the Karns contract is the best and most advantageous the town could have closed. If that be the case the bid of the Karns Brothers would have been just as low and the best after advertisement as 1t is without advertisement. The matter should have been handled in an entirely different manner. Then there would have been no door opened to suspicion. And to close THE OASIS asks again "Why Such Haste?"

WHY SUCH HASrE7

As stated elsewhere in these columns announcement was made a week ago that a contract had been let without advertisement for installation of municipal water plant for Nogales, in connection with the present water system, which the town government has contracted to purchase.
 The contract made may be all right. The award made may be at the lowest price possible, and the town may get for the money the best possible return. Further, it is possible that the town may not be required by law to advertise for bids in an undertaking of a magni tude so great But it is not the correct method of procedure.
 Let survey be made of the situ- ation and condition. In May, but three or four months away, the present terms of office in the town board will expire. The contractor will have to rush the work tremen- dously to get 1t done within the life time of this present town gov ernment, and may not do so, That will leave completion of the work under the auspices of a new set of men unfamiliar with the work done, and handicap. ped by that very fact z in carry. ing it to completion. It will leave a divided responsibility. If there be anything wrong the board elected in May can lay the blame back upon the present board, and the people now in can insist that their successors are at fault. More over, the present board was moi elected to build a water system and two of them were not elected by the people at all. A decent regard for the verilies would prompt this board to pass on tC their successors in office this i'm

pOTIdnG WOTK. LII all enterprise LII such magnitude the people should have a voice in advance of selec- tion of the men under whose aus pices the work should be inaugur- ated, conducted and completed.
 In this matter there is involved another grave question. The tax payers of Nogales voted bonds for a municipal water system. At no time in the election was there ad- vanced any proposition to pur- chase an existing water system. Had there been coupled the propo- sition to buy the plant of the No gales Water Company it is safe to say that the bonds would not have carried at the election. Afterward there arose questions and condi- tiOns that made 1t apparent that purchase of the existing system was a necessity. By their suit the Water Company had blocked the sale of the bonds. It is explained that the legal approval necessary to market bond issue is withheld wherever there is litigation in the premises involved. By entering suit and asking an injunction the Water Company put the town right where it was powerless to proceed one step further The town had to contract to buy the plant of the water company or fail in the sale of it's bonds, and let drop the proposed municipal sys- tenn. Now there was a condition not contemplated when the bonds were voted. And there is a grave doubt whether the town has legal right to apply any part of the bond issue to any other purpose than plainly intended at the time of the election. The least the town board could have done, and should have done would have been to have referred back to the people the new issue brought about by the suit of the Water Company, and asked public approval of the prop osition. Judge O'Connor says he can find nowhere in the law war rant for such proposition. Maybe so. But to have done so would have looked far better than letting a fifty thousand dollar contract without advertising for bids. It seems passing strange that after a community has mortgaged itself to the extent of one hundred and twenty thousand dollars, half dozen or more men, under the cover of official action, can devote that money to purposes not con- templated when the bonds were voted, and can expend 1t on large contracts let without pub licity. It seems remarkable that the law should be so weak and futile. Anyhow, for the sake of appearances the board could have called a public meeting and laid

Hi. R.a, Motive.

General F. D. Grant. At a Washing
tons birthday dinner in New York
some years ago, told story about
young Boston tory.
This tory" he said, fought. during
the revolution neither on one side nor
on the other. He took a pleasure trip
on the continent, and he didn't come
back home again until the war was
over.
He was treated very coldly by So
ciety on his return and this grieved his
good old mother to the heart.
The dear old lady tried to explain
the matter one afternoon to a Boston
belle.
Naturally. as the head Of the fam
ily, she said, my son could not take
part in the war To him fell the duty,
perhaps the most arduous duty. Of pro-
tecting his mother and sisters, and
looking after the interests OF the es-
tate
