MUNICIPAL COAL
AT COST PL U S
COST OF DELIVERY
Seems to Have Some Strings
Upon it That Detract
from the Big Saving An
ticipated.

Yesterday the City Clerk notified
the public that the City of Nogales
had acquired a carload of confiscated
coal, which would be sold to citizens
at cost plus cost of delivery. All
wanting coal were to register before
5 o'clock yesterday evening. The un-
derstanding gathered that the coal
would be parceled out among the reg
istrants.
Yesterday morning "The Oasis"
editor called on the City Clerk, and
registered. At that time registration
had included enough persons to give
each about ton, but it was thought
that additional registration would cut
it down to about half ton.
Inquiry as to the cost of the coal
plus cost of delivery developed that
the carload of coal cost at the mine
s82, and that transportation to No
gales would be $181, or thereabouts,
which would be about $11 per ton.
It developed also that the carload
of coal offered came consigned to
parties in Guaymas, was confiscated
by the National Fuel Administration,
which is not permitting coal to go out
of the country at this juncture. That
is how the coal is on hand here, and
has come to the city for benefit of
the public. And at price of $50 per
carload at the mine and freight OF
$181 il is available at $11 per ton to
the consumer.
But City Clerk Cole found com
plication. The railroad company de-
mands demurrage of $40 per day for
five days. That will add more than
So per ton to the cost. Then two
brokers want commissions. One in
Nogales, the other in Ell Paso. THAT
will add several dollars more per ton.
Mr.. Cole opined that by the time the
coal was paid for, with transportation,
demurrage and two brokerage fees it
would stand about SIC per ton. That

The treaty situation will remain as

BEGUN YESTERDAY IN
s UP RE me COURT: A
STR 0 Nc ARRAY Of
COUNSEL ON BOTH SIDES
WAR TIME PROHIBITION SHOULD BE CONTIN-
UED AS AN ECONOMIC NECESSITY IS THE
ARGUMENT UPON WHICH THE ANTI-SA.
LOON LEAGUE BASES IT'S CASE.
UNITED Press Saryice)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O.-Todav
attorneys for liquor interests and
government began legal battle over
constitutionality of the war time pro-
hibition before the Supreme Court of
the United States.
The opening move was a request
by Wayne B. Wheelan, counsel for the
Anti-Saloon League, to file brief
in support of the government. The
request was granted.
The court room was crowded.
Elihu B. Root, Levy Mayer, William
Marshall Bullitt were in court on be-
half Of the liquor interests.
In its brief the Anti-Saloon League
claims that prohibition is necessary
to the welfare of the country. The
brief declares that brewers use in a
year 65,000,000 pounds of sugar, and
suff cient grain to feed seven million
people the entire year. In 1917, con-
tlnued the brief, breweries consumed
three million tons of coal, and to con-
duct their traffic they required 49,
100000 teams and motor cars, in
clud;ng 100000 freight cars.
All those materials and appliances
prohibition diverts to more pressing
wants and needs of the people at
large, than is the thirst of a part of
them for malt beverages-was the aY-
gument of the brief.
Assistant Attorney General Frier-
son made the opening argument for
the government. Present circum-
stances, said Mr.. Frierson, have not
ended the war powers of Congress,
nor has the emergency calling for
prohibition ceased as yet.
During the afternoon counsel for
liquor interests based their attack
generally upon President Wilson's
veto of the Volstead bill.
Elihu B. Root will make the final
argument for the liquor interests.

SeasOnable AdmOnitiOn by a
Gentleman With Wide
Experience in Growing g
Cities.

The day has at last arrived and
Nogales is coming into it's own. For
some time it has been predicted that
Nogales would have an unprecedented
building period which would surpass
anything in it's history and that day
is now here. The rapid exchange of
property-that of the Montezuma Ho-
tel, several additions cut into lots and
on the market and facilities offered
for house building, all point to a
measure of prosperity not heretofore
surpassed.
What better points to the conf
dence of our good people, is the fair
prices offered, no attempt to hold
up lots, exchange at fair prices.
Money which seemed to have been
hopelessly asleep is now released and
offered at a reasonabl rate.
The crying need of houses for our
citizens is now to be supplied on
any reasonable application-therefore,
GOWN A HOME AND STOP PAY
ING RENTS" has become fact.
Nogales, better than any other bor-
der city, offers good Investments
security is good and sufficient and
we predict that the close future will
see this city dotted with new resi-
dences and business blocks. No longer
will we see good people living in
shacks, they will bestir themselves to
be in the moving van of home own
ers. A beautiful city is prosperous
one and it is our prediction that Mo-
gales of the future will be known as a
city of beautiful homes.
Home builders will see to it that
more attention is given to the archi-
tectural features. Coordination of all
those interested is necessary but not
wanting. No unjust rivalry but a
personal interest in everything neces-
sary to get results. And why should
Nogales not be prosperous with the
great region Of Sonora to the south
of us, fast getting back to normal
conditions-the reopening of mines
and discovery of new ones, brings
Nogales as we'll as that great state
the full measure of prosperity.
1t is hopeful sign on the part of
our friends over the border that they,
too, realize that what is good for this
side is also equally advantageous TO

subordinate to the Federation.
In Nogales the subordinate club is
the Santa Cruz Club Auxiliary, and
while organized on social lines it has
done some very effective work on
other lines.
Some years ago the State Fedora
tion held it's annual convention in No
gales, and it was very successful
meeting, drawing here for several
days a large number of prominent
women from all parts of the state.
There are also several district fed
erations subordinate to the State
Federation, assisting in or auxiliary
to the work of the parent body. Lo-
cal clubs of the Federation are mem
bers of their respective district Fed
erations, as well as of the State Fed
Grafton.
The post of president of the state
organization is one of large respon-
sibility, and where the duties are dis
charged efficiently that official visits
every club in the Federation during
her term of office. Travelling ex-
penses alone are quite burden, and
only women of Independent means can
afford the honor.
The Federation has projected a
plan to relieve the president of that
onerous burden, by raising a fund of
$4,000, to be invested at interest,
which latter is to be devoted to the
expenses of the president.
The quota of the Santa Cruz Club
Auxiliary toward the fund described
has been fixed at $100, and a COM
mittee has been appointed to raise
the fund. 1t consists of a number of
the most active workers in the Auxil-
iary, and they expect to busy them
selves in the work right away.
The plan upon which they will work
will be made public in the Sunday

LONG BEACH, Calf, Nov. 90
Omitted Press.) = Fillmore Condit
would rather be a citizen of Califor-

That explains why he cast his vote
last week in Newark and Immediately
afterward boarded a train for Long
Beach where Mrs. Condit says he has
promised to remain the rest of his
life. Mrs. Condit, who preceded her
husband here. tells the story.
Condit, as leader of the anti-saloon
movement in New Jersey was certain
of nomination as "dry Republican"
candidate for governor. He had been
nominated by the Republicans n
June. Later Mrs. Condit arrived in
Long Beach and, after giving it the
once-over, decided it was to be the
future headquarters of the Condit
family regardless of who was COVER
nor of New Jersey.
She wired her husband to that eff
feet and later letter brought the re-
suit she desired. Condit agreed that
if he could stay in New Jersey long
enough to cast his vote at the cleo
tion, he would give up his campaign
for governor and move to Long
Beach. Mrs. Condit quickly pur-
chased a home here and a week ago
yesterday Condit voted and started
for California.
"Mr. Condit has retired from busi-
ness and active life and we will live
here the rest of our days." declared
Mrs. Condit. "My husband is going

for women, showing how, with only
a small capital to begin with, one
might establish a paying goat ranch.
Many of her animals were exhibited
at the recent stock show in San Fran
cisco.
"Why is the milk goat the subject
for jest? The milk goat in Europe
is not joke. In the future the at
titude of America toward the milk
goat will be more respectful" assert
ed Miss Richards. "Goat milk is espe-
cially nourishing for invalids and chill
dren as it is free from tuberculosis.
"Goat raisers may be divided into
three classes; first, the rancher who
has large tract of land and bands
of native goats mated with thorough
bred stock; second, the man who
keeps herd near the city, but not in
it; he usually raises thoroughbred
animals, which he sells for from $500
to $500 a piece; third, the man who
keeps goats for dairy purposes only" "
