MADE A CHANCE
YESTERDAY IN
The PASSPORT
PROGRAMME

Yesterday tie chktf immigrant in
spector for the United States at
Nogales, A rizona, Mr.. r. NJ. Cousar,
informed Thu Oasis" that he had
received telegraphic instructions to
continue issue of Border Permits
lor alien5 (Maxicans) to cross the
Line, which permits apply to all liv-
.ng within 40 miles of the inter-
national l;ne IN either side.
Mr.. Cousar stated also that such
permits do not have to be vised,
snd thern are no fees. Already is
sue of such pc mits had be.;n order
ed for Americans.
All the foregoing is in line with
what wa reported as taking place
n Ell Past two days ago, as report
ed in "The Oasis" yesterday morn
ing.
Consul F. J. Dyer, in Nogales,
''onora, also informed "The Oasis"
that he had been instructed by wire
% extend the time for collecting the
$40 fee en- passports.
So mat trs' in that line are as
they ware.
The above Instructions to the I'm
migration Officials from the Inn
migration authorities at Ell Paso,
and thn RESTRICTIONS to Consul Dyer
from the State Department, are
'cmewha conflicting, as the I'M
''igration authorities are informed
that the borde Permits shall not be
:lassed a passports, and hence will
require nc visa, whereas the inform
Ption to Mr.. Dyer is to continue
: harging $1.0o for such vises the
same as formerly. And both seem
t'> be contrar.y to law passed by
{ ongreSs.
1t is tc be hoped, however, that
the present status of border traf-
&c can be maintained.

call to worldwide responsibility for the worlds peace.
 When our citizens were in danger in Peking he sent an unprecedented responsibility for a President to assume. His in- structions to General Chaffee, in command, never fully published, brought it about that when the allied commanders, French, / Eng fish and the rest, delayed days and then discussed in council for re- sultless hours the American com mander rose and said: 'I am in structed to start for Peking to- morrow. My troops march at daybreak.
 This is what a ".man of the Nc Kinley stamp" did and what Hard ing will do. A vigorous policy will be his; but it will not be guided in the international agreements he makes by French desires to collect the exorbitant profits of oppres- sive concessionaires or English appetite for territory. He will not gather troops on the Rio Grande and do nothing. He will not abuse powers given to gain eff ciency in war to infringe on the liberty of public opinion in peace. He will not incur debt after war is over, depreciating the market price of bonds purchased by pa triotic self-sacrifce.
 The Republican party has stead fly extended the federal powers and it's return to power will con- tinue in this path to the end that a quiet, peaceful prosperity may increase happy families, better educated children, diffuse wealth, put the Government on business basis and spread sanity.

SUPERSTITlONS OF THE PAST
Many Years Ago Had Almost Uni versaI Credence.

A reader furnishes us with a list of old superstitions which were part of our folk lore in this part of the country before we had to have folk lore societies to preserve this sort of thing:
 A rooster growing at the front door meant visitor coming.
 A twig catching a young lady's dress meant q beau.
 An itching ear meant that some one was talking about you.
 To turn back after starting meant bad luck.
 Opening an umbrella in the house meant bad luck to the house.
 A measuring worm on a woman's frock meant new dress.
 An itching left hand meant that you would marry soon.
 An itching right hand, meant that you would shake hands with a strang- CT.
 Seeing the new moon over the left shoulder meant one would soon get money.
 Probably most of us are supersti- tious about the number 13, just as peo- pie were long time ago. Our own superstitions will amuse a subsequent generation. as those recalled by our render amuSc LIS. Only a subsequent generation can safely laugh at super Stitions. Socrates was put to death for laughing at some of the superstitions of the Greeks. Let us. then, laugh at these and take the superstitions of our own time as seriously as we please.- St. Louis Post Dispatch.

WORDS OF A LEADER

Senator Harding has arisen to the occasion. No higher tribute than that could be paid to his speech of acceptance, because the occasion was the highest and most momentous that this generation has known. Not since Lincoln in his first inaugural spoke the words that determined the course of the nation on the issue of union or dissolution has any Ameri- can statesman been confronted with responsibilities comparable with those of today, or with a decision at Hateful as that which must now be made between the preservation and the surrender of American national ity.
 1t was in the very spirit of Lin coin that Senator Harding address, ed himself to his task. There were in his words the same serious sense of responsibility, the same patience and absence of bitterness and of personalities; the same inclination to dwell not upon the controversies of the past but upon the facts of the presents, the same looking to the future with fine blending of mo- desty and of confident faith, the same pitching of the whole address in key of the highest spirituality and of purest patriotism. It was an address which was at once remini- scent of the inspired utterances of the Fathers of the Republic and completely characteristic of the speaker himself and practically ap- pIicable to the vital issues and needs of the present day.-H arve S Weekly.

has been placed in the schoolhouses, thus the whole expense will have to be met in the coming year.
 Repairs were made to every schoolhouse in the town, in that item and replacement of equipmen5 is included the cost of the fire escape on the schoolhoJse m the village, new desks at the East Canaan and No. 5, slate boards at Sodom and new shingles at Canaan Valley.
 Repairs are to be made at each place during the coming month, at East Canaan there is need of q new roof to protect the property, at the high school new bookcase is being made from a little used closet, thus giving needed room for text books.
 Considering the advanced cost of everything needed in the upkeep of the schools, the committee feel that an ample appropriation should be made at the town meeting to covec all costs. The committee are looking for further legislation at the next session of the Assembly that will probably increase the amount to be received from the state for support of the schools, and the time seems to be coming when the Federal Gov ernment will also make provision for school f1nds.

PEAK WHERE NOAH LANDED
Mount Ararat, in Northwestern Per sla, Is Now Part of Recently
 Created "Bufferr State.

Youthful students of sacred history, if they will look up the map of the near East, will find in the extreme northwestern part of Persia a noun tain peak marked Mount Ararat. That should give them fine starting point, for they will remember that 1t was on Mount Ararat that Noah, In the Bib Heal account landed. Mount Ararat Is the loftiest peak In Azerbaidjan, 17,000 feet above sea level, but if they have neglected news from Europe they may not know that Azerbaidjan Is a new republic established by the political strife in eastern Europe in the expectation that 1t will act as a political and military buffer for some of the great nations.
 The inhabitants of Azerbaidjan are Persians, Armenians, Kurds, Tartar Turks and Arabs, whose valleys are veritable garden spots. It ranks in statistics as one of the most produc- tive spots in all Persia, but young readers will find their chief interest In the fact that 1t contains Mount Ara rat, which gave Noah his first shelter. according to the accepted narrative. The erection of Azerbaidjan as a buff fer state brings the remote past and the immediate present together in a way which may also awaken the in- terest of those who have moved past the years of youthful curiosity.-Pitts- burgh Dispatch.

MAN OF THE McKINLEY STAMP.

Talcott Williams, in The Indepen dent for July 10, thus writes hi: opinion of such man.
 Harding is a man of the Me Kinley stamp. Mckinley was the first candidate for President in either party, after twenty years of silver agitation, who dared to come out for the gold standard and carried his party with him. Cleveland came out for gold after election and the persuasion of de- vastating panic and he lost his party. Mckinley freed Cuba. He urged the law which prohibited concessions to Americans until native Legislature existed. He did not hesitate to plant the vic torious feet of the Republic be- yond the Pacific. He annexed the Philippines when all the idealists, without ideas, who now object to Harding, were shrieking against annexaton and a majority of Democrats in the Senate voted against this step. Mckinley did not hesitate to use the army to save the Philippines from the ty- ranny of Aguinaldo and the Ta- gals. He courageously settled in the archipelago the most difficult church question ever presented to an American President. He de- fled the pressure of the German Kaiser at Manila. He set our cur rency in order. He annexed the Hawaiian Islands. He began the unhesitating enforcement of the Sherman Act. He was the first President to enforce the Inter state Commerce Act. He stood for world wide arbitration when Roosevelt opposed. In his last utterance, before Czolgosz's bull let, he sounded the summons to international trade, trumpet

Morwiy A Good Story.

Wars produce many stories of fic- ton, some of which the oftener they are told the more they are believed to be true. The Civil war was no ex- ception to this rule, and the story of the apple tree Is one of these Actions based on a slight foundation of fact. There was, indeed, an apple orchard on one side of the hill occupied by the Confederate forces. Running diagonal ly up the hill was a wagon road, which, at one point, ran very near one of the trees, so that the wheels of the ve- hicles had on that side cut off the roots of the tree, leaving a little em- bankment General Babcock, of my staff, reported to me that when he first met General Lee he was sitting on this embankment with his feet in the road below, and his back resting against the tree. The story had no other foun- dation than that. Like many other good stories, 1t would be very good if 1t was only true.-Memoirs of Ulysses s. Grant.
