GKFLUENZA
Public Must Be Careful To
Avoid A Second Epidemic.
Easier To Prevent Than

Encouraging reports of the fewer
cases of Influenza in this vicinity

vigilance or to become careless in the
belief that the danger is all over"
says a well known authority. with
the coming OF cold weather there is
apt to be a return of this frightful
epidemic and its seriousness Will de-

infection.
When the air is fun of influenza
germs, you may be constantly
breathing them into your nose and
throat. But their danger may be
avoided and you may make yourself
practically immune to infection ii
you destroy the germ before it actu-
ally begins work in your blood.
During the recent serious epidemic
which hit Harrisburg 50 hard, most
successful results were obtained by
many through the simple breathing
into the nose. throat and lungs of
the medicated air of oil of Hyomei.

FLAMES DAMAGE SCHOOL
Fire Burns Roof From Grammar
Building at Midday-Depart-
ment Does Good Work.

Fire, which was discovered al
about l o'clocn yesterday after
noon, burned off the east half oil
the roof of the grammar school
building, and was stopped only
after a most effective fight put
Iup by the Nogales fire depart
ment.
Within a very short time after
the alarm the department had
strung three lines of hose, two
on the south and one ON the
north fronts, and although the
location of the fire made it un-
usually difficult to fight, the
firemen never hesitated. Push
ing up the stairways and the
fire escapes, they entered the
Smoke-choked structure and
speedily gained control of the
Flames.
Waste paper burned in a
stove is believed to have been
the cause of the blaze.
Doctor Chenoweth stated that
the building was insured, and
the damage is variously esti-
mated at from $4,000 to $4,000.

mittee of democratic ladies to

announced that Mrs. James A.
Harrison had been appointed

tee, calling on the lady to ad-
dress the assemblage.
Mrs. Harrison made a happy
speech, promising to work for

of whom were willing to.give

After Mrs. Harrison had fin

NOGALBS SPENDS 100000
R, and T. CORPORATIONS
GOT $4,000 OF THAT sum
Below is Given List Of the Warrants,
with Numbers, Dates and Amounts
Each Warrant Bears Signature of a
Roy & Titcomb Stockho|der as Mayor

One-fifth of all the money
spent by Nogales in the last two
years has gone into the strong
box of the Roy & Titcomb cor
Iporations-Roy & Titcomb, Inc,
and the Nogales Electric Light,
Water and Ice company.
In round numbers, Nogales
has expended about 100000 in
the period since the present ''ef-
ficient" administration took Of
flee, and the figures presented
herewith show that $20,823.37
Iof that amount has been paid to
the two corporations named.
How much more the R. & T..
comb corporation got from con-
tractors who found that pur-
chasing supplies from them made
friends for them in the city
council, where they were seeking
contracts with the city, cannot
be even estimated, but many will
guess that the sum might have
been almost as much more.
Fifty-five times in the last %
months have the councilmer
presided over by a Roy & Tit
comb stockholder, voted to the
two corporations various sums
of money, from a few dollars to
thousands of dollars at one time,
and every one of those fifty-five
warrants carries the necessary
signature of Mayor H. M. Clag-
Iett on is face.
It will be claimed that the city
was given wholesalers prices by
Roy & Titcomb, Inc, and that it
suffered mo financial disadvan-
tage" through these dealings.
The Oasis doubts this state
ment so much that it will look
it up and publish something on
that point later.
Those who have dealt with the
Roy ( Titcomb corporation
know without being told that
they are in the habit of charging
no mean profits ON what they
sell. 1t is even said that the No
gales Electric Light, Water and
Ice company, which needs the
money" far worse than does Roy
! & Titcomb, Inc, has been charg-
ed a profit of about rs per cent
on goods purchased through r,
& T., but being controlled by the
r. & T. had no chance to go di-
rect to the manufacturers I'm
der those circumstances, can
anyone be blamed for doubling
that Roy & Titcomb gave the
city extraordinarily cheap
rates"

that the law forbids a council
