A PUBLIC NECESSITY

The law recently passed by the leg islature of Arizona, authorizing the county of Maricopa to construct a Court house, is perhaps the most judi cious measure passed by that body, so far as the interests of this portion of the territory is concerned. It is fact patent to every one in this valley, and even to strangers coming among us, that our public buildings Gf such they can be called) are disgrace, and especially SO to a community that boasts as much wealth and general prosperity as ours. Public structures, it is admitted, as a rule are an indica- tion of the enterprise and thrift of a people, and any city or town which neglects or refuses to make such highly useful and ornamental i'm proYements is chased among the be nighted and less educated sections of our country. in n rich and gro wing valley like ours. public buildings of this nature are of prime necessity not only for their absolute use, but as showing the faith VIC have in our prosperous young city and the won. derfully productive valley surround ing Us. It should be remembered too, that the erection of a court house in this city, at the present time, makes it more than probable that Pheniz will ia the future be the permanent county seat of Maricopa, and in view of these evidences it behooves ouI people to lend their whole aid and cnc6uragement for the completion oi ,!is ihucb needed Improvement:

X NEW school law was passed hy our legislature. One of it's good provisions is the apportionment of the school fund to the various districts in proportion to the number of children in each. Formerly the apportionment was based upon the number of child ren in actual attendance during cer- tain months. If, therefore, any dis trict should run short of funds, and could employ no teacher during those months, it would get no share of the school fund at the next succeeding appOrtionment.
