TIE Louisville Courier Journal pays this compliment to Arizona's delegate By the industry and good management of Delegate Marcus A, Smith he has succeeded in getting a favorable report from the com mittee on his bill tor the admission of Arizona as a state into the union. He has worked hard on this meas ure for a long time, and itnow looks like his efforts have not been vain. The house will certainly pass the bill before April is out and Mir. Smith feels confident that the bill will pass the senate. There is no good reason why Arizona should not have the rights of statehood, as it has complied with all lawful re- quirements."

ing shotgun" roundup. The rustlers. it is said, made the small ranchmen believe that it was to their interest to oppose the army, and if a fight occurs it will be a desperate one. It is believed that a fight will take place not later than Saturday, as the rustlers are pre- pared and think the army will show no quarter. Another army of cat tlemen are reported to be on their way to reinforce the first one. No one doubts but what the cattlemen, from Texas to Montana, are com bining in the effort to crush the rustlers. If both armies of cattle men now in the field unite, they will undoubtedly win the battle, but the rustlers are able to defeat either of the parties if attacked by but one at time. The rustlers are said to be organized, and are awaiting an attack 60 miles from where the army is encamped.

Henry Blevins, supposed accomplice, is now in jail here. Portions of the booty were found near his house buried in the bottom of the river under two feet of water. Officers have been on Ussery's trail since the robbery, and captured him last night at his mothers home. An attempt may be made at his rescue.

The Book Question.
Walnut Grove, April s, 1892.

No one, who has not had the expe. rience, knows how aggravating it is when John has been told to study his lessons to hear that idle urchin reply: FI haint got no book" Therefore I think, from the teachers standpoint, that our ob. liglng Superintendent has Chit the nail on the head, {" in his recommendation for free text books. But such a measure should contain suitable restrictions to prevent destructIveness.
 The free school system designs to give the poor mans sons the same privileges as the rich, and to accomplish this com pletely, you must place books as we'll as tuition on the free list.
 Whether this will cultivate the inde- pendence of character in our boys and glrls. for which western people are noted, 1 shall not maintain.
 As to the kind of text books, think we might be benefited by exchanging some of ours for others more suitable For instance, Webster's Sp3ller and Quackenbos' Grammar.

TEACHERS COLUMN

EDITOR HERALD-Like MT. Reid, I be- lieve in free text books, with proper re- strictions. Have never had any expe- rience in that direction, but opine that in some cases it would require consider able judicious restriction,
 But before any action of that kind is taken, would like to see some changes in our present series of text books.
 The spelling book is especially obnox- ions. I consider more than half the time spent by pupils studying that book to be wasted. The idea of children of seven or eight years old learning to spell such words as surd, benzoin, purvey, quirk, and scores of others just as use- less, is absurd.
 The grammar also is not in harmony with modern methods of teaching, and the arithmetic contains the anticipated English tables of measure.
 I also wish'to place myself on record as being very much in favor of teach er's institute, and very much opposed to the granting of any temporary certifi : cates to persons, except holders of cer- tifcates from other states or other coun- ties of this territory, or normal grad uates. Would like to hear from the oth- CT teachers on these points.

If any one who suffers from Rheuma- tism would stop and reason moment before they decide to purchase some remedy, they could not help avoid any so-called cure that is sold for $1. Figur- ing the retailers, the jobbers, and the manufacturers profits out of that soli- tary dollar, and there is not left over 20 cents for the medicine. Aside from it's reputation, and the fact, Dr. Drummond's s Lightning's Remedy appeals to one's good sense.

The Prospector claims there are in the neighbor- hood of 2,000 locations in Cochise county, which will average $4 each. or total amount of taxes of sS,OOO.

MT. Smith has introduced a bill in the House to amend the act es- tablishing private land court which will, if he can push it through be a godsend to settlers on land grants in Arizona and his efforts should be endorsed by strong peti- tions to congress to pass the bill. The amendment provides that all cases where a land grant shall be confirmed by the court of private land claims, the order for confrma- tion shall expressly except from such Spanish or Mexican grant.
 First All parts or portions of said grants which have been dis posed of by the United States.
 Second All parts ofsuch grants as have not been so disposed of, but which have heretofore been ta- ken possession of by any person who has initiated a title thereto which would be capable of being perfected if such lands, at the time of location or settlement, had been public lands of the United States. All such claims within such grants shall, upon confirmation of the grant, be surveyed out by the Uni ted States and paid for by the oc- cupant or claimant at the same rate that like public lands are now dis posed of; and the claimants of the Spanish or Mexican grant shallnot be compelled to bring any such oc- cupants or claimants before the court.-Prospector.
