TIE character of the dispasche. which

TIE character of the dispatches which have been rece-tly sent out by the asso- ciated press agent at Tombstone is such as to excite universal common and con- tempt. The position of a news gatherer for an organization like the associated press IS an important one, and one which should never be prostituted to unworthy ends. A man who does not understand the value of truth and the fact that the public wants news, not personal or party bias, is not fit person to enjoy such a trust. This agent at Tombstone, who ever he may be, appears to possess none of the necessary requirements or in- stincts Of m honest news gatherer, but is constantly prostituting his position to serve the base ends Of a small and disreputable political clique and is palming of upon his employers a mess of trash and lies for news. If the agents elsewhere of the associated press are as unreliable as the one at Tombstone the stuff that IS being wired all over the country as news must be utterly worth less. We do not believe that is the case, however. It is only occasi nally that some worthless whelp manages to crawl into a responsible position, but when discovered he IS usnally promptly elected. If the ag,nt referred 10 has any other connection with journalism than that of a penny-a liner fer the as. socIated press, by his conduct be has lost all title to respect We would re- spectfnlly call the attention of Mir. Web ster, the manager of the associated press at San Francisco to this case.

 | In a very few months Colorado vii
 have a grand exhibition of minerals O.
 all kinds, where undoubtedly every min
 erel state and territory of the Union wIlI
 be fittingly represented.
 When, in 1878, at the Worlds Fair Of
 Paris, Alzona was only represented b!
 a small collection of minerals gather C
 from the then few mines under develop ment, adding to them few more takeL from private cabinets, they, nevertheless, attracted the attention of the scientific men of Franc England and Germany in fact of the world at large, and man,
 were the praises and eneomiums be- slowed upon them, owing to their supe- riority over ever so many others, both as to beauty and intrinsic value.
 That same small collection, was witl, the owners consent made a present by California Commissioner, Prof. H. J. Hanks to the museum of the school oi mines of the city of Paris for winch fine large first class gold medal was awarded, duplicate of the one awarded to the Pacific Coast as mark of esteem from the French Government to the mineral committe- of California.
 If already in 1878 and at such an ex- hibltion as the one in Paris, where every known mineral in the world was re- presented, by every mineral producing nation on the globe, Arizona took lead ing position with only couple of cases of her ores as samples, what can this Territory not show tr-day, when thousands of mines are under develop ment, every one Of which to a certain extent is capable of turning out lots oi good ores, and especially valuable and beautiful specimens.
 The exhibiting of this country's min eral wealth at any and all fairs, whether at home or abroad, is a duty which we owe to ourselves; for without showing to capitalists what We have to offer them the chances are that they in turn will give their attention to such districts as are amply represented by liberal dis play of their ores and minerals of all Hundreds of capitalists visiting exhibitions of all kinds, are for ever on the lookout to discover the most | profitable places for them to invest their | surplus capital, whether in mines or other industries, and, unless a state or be represented by her products, DO notice Is taken of her and | the consequence is that millions of devel- oping capital finds its way in another channel
 Let our Governor, or some other public officer, take the initiative in the matter, appoint a committee of mining men rom every county in Arizona, who in urn will appoint m executive com nittee, whose duty it shall be to solicit amples of ores and numerals from every nine in the Territory, assort and dialogue them properly. prepare etc, in fact pave the way for roper representation of Arizona at the oming exhibition at Denver, Colorado, , 9 August next.

PROFESSIONAL KNOWLEDGE

A lawyer learns how to read, write parse, etc, and then studies Blackstone Chitty, etc. A physician learns to read write, parse, and then studies Flint Draper, Hamilton, etc. A teacher learn. now to read, write. parse, etc, and the1
 he stops studying This IS the cast with nine hundred and nineiy-nine out Jf one thousapd-the other one goes oI 70 read and give himself a broader cul. ture. But he does little to gain profess iunal knowledge.
 The teacher should have a clear view of the history of education.
 He should know the great teachers of the past by name and somewhat by doc urine. He shonld have definite knowl. edge of the order of the development of rhe mental powers. He should know the effect on each mental power of each study-fnr example, how does the study of grammar Cdrcate, and in what way does 1t differ from aIitL metic?
 He should know the great leading principles of education.
 He should know the methods em- ployed in teaching by the masters of the art.
 He should understand the principles of school management.
 He should know the means of culti- vatIng the moral faculties.
 This is but a summary of the profes- sionai knowledge required of any teach CT who enters the school room.
 It may seem that it is requiring very much of the teacher but the place demands it, if public sentiment does not the pupils need such teachers.
 The formation of an educational li- brary should be one of the first duties of the teacher. Then, fixing his mind day by day on educational facts and principles, he will gain a professional way of looking at things, and he will ac- cumulate knowledge in Tell-defined track; in the course of years it will make him strong teacher.-N.

The Star is trying to carry water or both shoulders. It is high time it came to some decided stand upon some ques- ton. In a recent article it rediculed the dear people because they happened to be poor, laying that fact to fh, charge of laziness and indolence. Now it comes out and claims for the Democratic party the especial cham pionship of the masses. Both proposi- tions are absurd Under Republican, ism all citizens from the highest to the lowest are entitled to and receive the same consideration, and DO one is snubbed and told that he has DO rgbts which are entitled to respect because he IS pocr. The laboring people have received more benefits from Republican Legislation during the period of that psrtys supremacy than during all the previous history of their country.

nrxooRAr.s opnIoN OF TIE EARps.

A DEMOCRATS OPINION OF THE EARPs-
 As the Earps have been arrested and
 will be brought to this county and put upon trial for the murder of the noted desperado, Frank Stilwell, 1t may not be uninteresting to our readers to know how these so-called Re
 publican outlaws are regarded by de cent, law abiding people in Tombstone regardless of politics. We arepermitted to make extracts from letter written by strong Democrat. so it's utterances can have no political bias. Speaking oi the arrest of the Earps in Denver, he says:
 "Our comtemptible Sheriff Behan wanted to secure the requisitiOn from the Governor and go after them. l feel that his object was to have them assas- sinated on the road. The Earps neve VI. uld have left here if Bchan had done his duty. When Morgan Earp was assas- sinated and his brothers were urglnr the Sheriff to arrest the assassins he die not notice them. The same was the case when M. k. Peel was murdered. Neith I Behan or any of his deputies have eveI turned hand to find the murderers. IL fact the officers have never spoken to B L. Peel since the mu der of his son. But when Stilwell, a stage robber, was killeO in another county, Behan and twent! deputies, all cowboys, are in the saddle 6 week to find somebody who was sup posed to have killed the stage bber When the Earps saw how they wer' treated, who ead blame them for leavinI the country, or who could blame then for averaging the death of their brothel they really killed Stilwell as charged; But no one knows that they did 1t.
 There is no hope for any honest mar to get justice here against these scoun- he IS in with them and have no doubi divides the spells with them.
 "The tarps are the only men these cut throats are afraid of, hence their greai anxiety to get them out of the way. Be han knows that If they return here aDo are set at Eberty,be and his gang vii have to leave here"
 This letter shows how the Earps arr regarded and also the high(?) esteem il which the Sheriff of Cochise county i, held. The writer of the above letter i; a prominen. Democrat and man of un- doubted probity. It furnishes a com- plete refutatlon If the charge made b, the Democratic organ fl this city, th' Star, that the lawlessness in Cochis, county is chargeable to the Earps wh, are ex-U. $. offi,ials.
 The Star, of course, does not believe one word of the nonsense it daily palm off ou its readers upon this question. That Is simply for political effect. Tn party is in need of an issue and they ar. trying to make one out of thIs.

It is doubtful if the Territory finishes the prison according to the plan, as it will doubtless become a State before that time, but if built according to the pl adopted, we are free to say, that no prison in the world will be as peri ct in all respects as this. The cost of completing the prison and aPPurtenan- ces, the quarters for offices, shops, kitchen, dining room, tank on building, sewer, wall, etc, will be about S5O0OOO.
 In conclusion we wish to thank Mir. Neahr and Captain Meeden, the super Intendent, for courtesies shown us on our visit, and who appeared to wish that We should know all and everything about the prison aud the working thereof.

THz Star protests against the use Of
 the Democracy by eliques and rings to secure personal ends. This is an un-
 knd rap at Behan, Purdy, Joyce ct als.,
 the leading lights in Cochise county
 Democracy. If the Star continues to
 take this stand, the cowboy organ will
 read 1t out of the party. The Star is
 little too general in its remarks. Why didn't it come out hat-footed and de-
 nounce the Cochise county outfit. which
 n bringing the Democratic name into greater disrepute than it had before if such thing is possible? The Star evidently considers that the Epitaph
 wing of the party with its load of cor ruption and lawlessness will act as a
 handicap in the coming campaign and deslres to disown it in such tender, gentle manner e not to lose the cowboy vote. Votes with Democratic politicians and papers count far more than principles and rep ststion- Our co.emporary pours oil upon the wounds its observations about cliques and rings may have made by re- itsrsting its nonsensical statement about the lsvlessness m Cochise being due 70 the Esrps. This renders nugatory all the good the article might be expected to do. But then we have had too much experience to expect consistency from . Democratic organ.

CAN WE LOVE KNOWLEDGE? Prof. G. Stanley Hall, in the Princeton Review suggests that "when we speak of loving knowledge for its own sake. we mean for the sake of it's effect on our characters as distinguished from all material advantages which may result from it. Strictly speaking. love of knowledge for its own sake IS a psychological imposibility; and further. that without exerting or ripening into ethical potency, knowledge is not power but weakness, and is nearly as likely to arm the bad as the good elements of the soul and of society" The Germans as- sume that "liFe without knowledge is better than knowledge which does not affect life" and that "all winch frees the mind is disastrous if it does not at the same time give self-control and make us better"

ANALYTIC OR SYNTHETIC SCIENCE TEAcHISG.-NeTman Smyth, D. D., of Andover fame. questions the advantages of our present system of teaching men tai sciences. He assumes that, "on &C., count of a tooeIelusive analytic method, our current mental science fails to render any satisfactory explanation of the origin and vital necessity of the first truths of the reason, or the real develop ment of mans great spiritual power" He would have the teaching more or ganic, rather than atomistic and indi- vidualistic.
