The Soda Deal.

In our last issue we stated that the
gentlemen who accompanied Mr.. Yer
ington to Keeler to inspect the soda
works were representatives of Colonel
North. This is mistake, MS these
gentlemen: Messrs. Thomas, Watnev
and Remfry belong to different com.
pany, and have no connection what
ever with Colonel North.
In this connection the Inyo Index
says: 1t is learned that the visit OF
these gentlemen means the conclusion
OF trade for the Soda Works aud To-
cations, the formation of new COM
pany and greatly increased operations.
The present holders of stock in the
Southern Development Company will
retain considerable interest in the
sew organization.

THE St Louis Post dispatch strikes the true channel of political success when it says:
 "Vote for the best man who has the best chance to win" would be the wisest instruction that State Democratic conventions can give their delegates to the National Con- vention. To insist upon or to bar Cleveland, Hill, Boies, Palmer, Gray, Campbell or any other good Democrat would be to place prefer ence for or prejudice against one man above devotion to the welfare of the party and the people.

TEACHERS COLUMN.
Uniformity in School Methods.

One of the most crying needs of our schools is a uniform and thoroughly graded system of instruction. Without definite purpose in vIew, clearly out lined at every step, there can be no sat isfactorv results; and to this in the schools of a county or state, must be added complete organization, by which union of labor can be had, for the pur- pose of securing the desired end.
 The teachers of the county are mostly trained under different methods, and there are probably as many systems in use in the county as there are school districts. Few teachers have a pro- gramme arranged beyond the present year, and the number is no doubt much less who have one arranged to extend through course of years.
 As teacher, having the interest of all the schools at heart, I would respect fully suggest that the County Superin- tendent appoint committee of teachers to meet immediately after the spring term of school, for the purpose of exam ing the systems, methods of instruction, yearly programmes, etc., of some of the leading educational states and select a course of instruction that we need not be ashamed to follow out, and that will advance us beyond the pioneering pe- .,oJ of
 Some may object to this on the grounds that it could not be carried out. To such will state that if the fault lies with the teachers-if we are unable to follow along the advanced line of instruction, we should prepare ourselves so that we can, or our places will be filled by oth- CTS. I have faith in the support of the people, and in the cooperation of the trustees in any measure that will add to the efficiency of our schools, and I be- lieve that if such reforms are introduced the trustees will see that they are car ried out.

THERE is in England an uncon- ventional and co. educational school where there are no prizes, no places and no marks for which to work. The goal of each child's ambition is to win honor for his or her form.

ried out

With proper restrictions, believe that the adoption of free text books would be move in the right direction. Our public schools cannot recognize any social or financial distinctions, yet there is distinction 'strikingly apparent to the pupils and teachers, when some pu- pills attend school with a full compile ment of books and others with very few, and these so badly worn and torn by having been used by various members of the family in succession, that they are constant source of annoyance and Encouragement.
 One book, with proper care, will last a pupil until he reaches the next higher grade; hence pupil should be fur njshed but one book of kind. This will prevent his forming habits of care lessness and destructiveness in using them. for he will know that when that book is destroyed his parents must fur nish him with new one.
 If our series of books were changed which is to be hoped will be i'll the near future-it would work a great hardship on many persons to be required to fur nsh their children with new supply, and this choice would cause a strong op- position to any proposed change of text books. It is true that it would involve an extra expense to the districts, but by a restriction in the purchase of eXpen- sive charts, which are frequently more ornamental than useful, the extra ex- pense could be met, provided books were purchased in quantities and at wholesale prices.

An Ancient Mine.

Deputy Sheriff Tom Elder came in last night from Tempe, bringing with him some very fine specimens of silver quartz. They will average $500 10 the ton and some small pieces of rock go as high as $15, ,000. The ledge was located recently by two Mormons from the Mesa coun- try and is about one and one half miles southeast of the Arizona dam, in the foot hills of the Supersti- tious range. Mir. Elder purchased a quarter interest and proposes to push the workings with all possible zeal.
 The finding of this ledge recalls the old stories of the Weaver claim which has led many a prospector on a fruitless chase. Back in the sixties old Pauline" Weaver, who was the original discoverer of the rich Weaver diggings around Wick enburg reported rich silver mine upon Salt river
 The statement he made to Jack Swilling. Tom McGoldrick and others was to the effect that there was rich mine in existence some where near the confluence of the Salt and Verde rivers. The mine was worked in early days by Mexi- cans, who built a smelter near by and packed the bullion to Sonora. Several years ago the smelter was found, but all efforts to re-discover the ledge or ancient workings have proved futile. The present claim of Mir. Elder and his partners is adjoining the old dsmelter but across the river and there Is a strong like lihood that they have, by one of those lucky stumbles of chance, ran across the old Weaver mine. If they have it will be worth working.-Phenix Republican.
