Music HALL.-The entertainments at Music
Hall continue to receive liberal patronage.
Morton's comedy of Little Mother is well
presented and is very::amusing. In this piece
Mr.. Jones, the comedian, shows some
excellent acting. Mrs. Calder also does
well in the title role. Some of the other
actors are inclined to burlesque at times and
thus spoil the effect. This afternoon there will
be a matinee for ladies' and children, when a
very pleasing programme will be presented
Inc season will close Monday evening with a
benefit to Mr. Calder, the manager.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

The biennial message of Gov. Stafford is on the whole, satisfactory document, cover ing the principal points upon which legisla- ton is needed. The recommendation, how ever, with regard to the apportionment of the school revenues does not entirely coin eide with our views. We think that the best and only fair way to apportion the fund is to let each county have the benefit ot all the funds raised within its limits for school pur- poses.
 With regard, also, to the proposition to create the office of assessor, and making 1t separate and distinct from the office of sher- ifr. we dissent from the views entertained by the Governor. The office of sheriff is not, at present, one that Is overpaid; and 1t Is always bad policy to have two officers to perform duties that can be equally well dis charged by one, and we do not think the creation of the office of assessor would be at tended by any very beneficial results.
 With regard to a registry law, we have all ready spoken at some length, and such law should be passed.
 The care of the insane within the Terri tory, as advised by the message, would be an advantage if it could be done at less ex- pense than by sending the patients to Stock ton. California but the Territory is not able to build an asylum of its own, nor does it as yet need any.
 The abolition of the office of Attorney General we think, would be benefit and We are glad to see such a course recommend ed and the next clause advising that the office of Probate Judge be elective by the peo- pie meets with our support. If the people make bad selection, they have no cause to complain We do not agree, however, with the proposition that fence law is one of our present necessities. We do not think the time for the passage of such a law has yet arrived.
 We were rather surprised at the small space devoted to mining, which Is the chief resource and industry of the Territory.
 The suggestions with regard to grand iuries are very good as far as they go. It is, we believe, the generally expressed opinion of the men of to-day that the grand, jury system should be laid away with other relics of the barbarous ages. But we do not see what is to substitute it. There must be some way of arriving at the punishment ot crime We know the grand-jury is cum bersome machine. If the Legislature can hit upon any better and less expensive mode of doing the work, we hope they will carry cut the Governors suggestion and abolish Grand Juries.
 With tho few exceptions indicated, ws think that Gov Satford's message indicates, pretty fully, the direction that the labors of the present legislature ought to take.

ABOUT JUDICIAL DISTRICTS.

Knowing it to be the desire of the citizens of Mohave and Yavapai counties to have these two counties united in Judicial dis trict. we ask the present Legislature to com ply with said desire. The argument used in favor of the move is that the counties named are side by side in Northern Arizona; that their people are and will be engaged in min- ing and stock raising; that, consequently, questions of law to be decided in both will be exactly alike; that the climate of both counties is similar, or nearly so, and that, to- gether, they would form moro convenient district for Judge than any of the districts as at present organized.

The press and people of Sonora still insist that Apaches from the Cairicahua reserva- tion, in our Territory, are constantly raid ing upon :hem. Gov.

Perhaps the Legislature may know, or be able to learn, something about this matter.

We hope that the present Legislature will not follow in the footsteps of its predecessors in the matter of granting divorces by legisla- tive enactment. It seems to us that this manner of granting divorces is contrary to the Bill of Rights, and, at any rate, it is meddlng with a matter that should be of exclusively judicial cognizance. Our laws in regard to divorces are very liberal-no just cause is omitted-and it is therefore only right that the courts should be the tribunal for these matters. and that the legislature should not attempt to exercise judicial functions
