1t is said there is a difference OF opin-
ION as to the number of school trustees
to be elected at the coming elections.
The fact is, nevertheless, that two are
TO be elected. and it is the duty OF the
school trustees to SO notify the electors.
II they don't there Will be two elected
anyhow.-Star.
There is undoubtedly diFerance OF
opinion as to the number Of trustees to
be elected. Lawyers themselves are rot
clear on the law on this proposition.
Judge Lowell has in q letter TO G. NJ.
Strauss, expressed the opinion that
after an examination Of the question,
that you are entitled to hold the office
until the expiration Of the term for
which Mr.. Haynes was elected" There
are, however, attorneys who differ with
the Judge in his conclusions OF Law, for
even lawyers disagree as well as other
people, but we are not prepared
to state who Is right and who is
wrong. The election does not take place
till late In June. Ii then it has been de
cioed that two trustees are TO be elected
two will be elected otherwise not. Nc
one We are satisfied, Will be foolish
enough to attempt to ignore the statu-
tory law on the subject.

Cattle sale.

Perrin, Land & Co., sold this week one
train load o: 400 head of two and three
year old steers to Dunphy, the wholesale
butcher of san Francisco. The cattle
are to be first fattened on the open
range in Nevada, and then slaughtered
in California hereafter. The shipment
is to be made over the Southern and
Central Pacific roads on Argenta, New
ada, and was to start from Pantana to-
day. This is the first shipment of Ari-
zsna cattle to Nevada which We know of.
It will go by way of Los Angeles, L9th-
rop and Sacramento, and the distance it
will pass over will be some twelve hun
dred miles. A few years ago toe ranges
of Nevada were heavily overstocked and
that state had large surplus of steers. 1t
is very significant the growing scarcity
of cattle everywhere, and the increasing
demand for our steers, that California
capitalists cannot secure nearer home
tn } cattle to meet the present deficit on
their Navada ranges, when few years
ago surplus existed, and are supplying
their meets from this distant point. We
welcome them in our midst and it is
.,iCn pleasure that we hear that still
larger shipments OI the same Class Of
cattle as those bought of Perrin, Land
& Co.. will be made by the same buyer to
Nevada from Southern Arizona later on.

WHEN the Butte reservoir is built
says the Enterprise, Florence will stead
lily advance to the largest aud most i'm
portant city in Arizona, and the valley
adjacent thereto will become the most
densely populated and prosperous rural
portion of the territory. There is no
guess work in this proposition, for it
was ordained when nature fashioned
the conditions and indelibly stamped Its
favor upon mountain, valley and river.
Bulletin.
Right you are brother Bulletin. When
the Butte reservoir is built the results
will double the population ef Southern
Arizona within two years. The amount
OF desert laad that will be transformed
into cultivated fields will be enormously
large. The Butte reservoir will be cap
sble of backing water twenty-five miles,
sufficient to irrigae hundreds Of thous-
ands OF acres if necessary. We hope
soon to know that 1t will be built.

FREE coinage in the United Staets
means that all holders Of silver bullion
shall be permitted by law to take the
same to the mints Of the United States
and have it coined into dollars weie ching
l12.5 of which 371.25 shall, says the
Mining and Scientific Review, be pure
silver and the remaining 4l.25 grains al
10y, in the same manner as the iaW now
permits the holders of gold bullion to
taAe /. 20 the United States miats and
have it coined into dollars containing
23.22 grains of pure gold and 2.5S grains
OF alloy. In other words the free coin
age of silver means that the govern
ment shall give each holder of 37L35
grains of pu.e silver one dollar therefor,
which is at the rate of Sl.29 for each
ounce Of pure silver. The law under
which silver dollars are now coined by
the United States mints differs greatly
from this in as much as silver bullion is
purchased by the secretary of the treas
ury at tie market price of the bnllion,
and is then coined by the mints into
dollars containing 37l.25 grains OF pure
silver and 41.25 grams alloy. Tie mar
ket price of silver has recently been
about dollar for an ounce of 480 grains
pure SO that the actual cost OF 37I.2J
is coined into the dollar OF the govern
ment is about 76 cents, l03.75 grains re-
naming Of the ounce worth % cents is
clear profit to the treasury. II free coinage
were allowed by law there fore this profit

go to the individual holder or pro1u Ger

No President, says the Boston Daily
Traveller, has ever stood better with the
country as whole in the third summer
OF his administration than President
Harrison. and none in recent years has
stood as we'll. He has given the coun-
try what it desired, a straightforward
business administration, and he has at
the same time given it a manly, unhypo-
critical Republican administration.
There has been 10 Cleveland dish cant on
the party side. ind no neglect or indif
ference on the business side. He has
uad no quarrel within the party, and no
faction fight with the opposition in the
Senate or House. He has never been
petulant, selfish, frivilous, timid or neg
ligent. Nc section OF the country has
had grievance, and no man in either
party E:s been slavishly followed or
tyranical,y directed. There has been
nothing vindictive on the one hand, and
no indications OF fear of any man or
interest on the other. The success of
his recent trip was merely the material
izing of universal public sentiment.
Harrison is all right.
