STATEHOOD FOR ARIZONA.
U. s. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.

Major j. W. Powell, OF United States
geological survey fame, says the Santa
Fe New Aerican, evidently sees the
handwriting on the wall. The major
has been basklng In the smiles of Uncle
Sans money changers for 10, these
many years, but as every dog has his
day, so the major has had his, so lar q,
wrestling with the public crib is con-
cerned.
In behalf Of the many loud and long
complaints that have gone up from the
west relative to Powelps management
OF the geological survey-a lobby built
department quite independent in itself
and created particularly for Major
Powell and his friends--a committee
WAS named at the last session OF con-
gress to make thorough investigation.
Senator Wolcost, OF Colorado, 10 at the
head OF this committee, and when con-
gress reassembles this month it 10 ex-
pected that some ruher startling dis.
closures will be made. What they are
can not now, Of course, be announced,
but at any rate, it is significant that
Major Powell has gone to California aud
word reaches Washington that perhaps
he will not return to the national capt.
tai. 1t is limited he will resign to &C.
cept position with the Leland Stanford
university. We hope this will prove to
be correct. That is about the easiest
way the major can let himself down, ior
he will undoubtedly have to go. As
for the geological survey, what purpose
It serves as governmental institution
We have never been able to divine. If .
it is continued at all it will be complete
ly reorganized and given over to the
care and direction OF the department of
agriculture where it properly belongs.

CURRENT COMM ENT.

Whatever else may or may not be
true with regard to present social tend
encies, it is certain that weak eye
sight, nervous diseases, insanity and
crimes of dishonesty are increasing in
excess of the population everywhere in
civilization. There are more criminals
who can read and write in our peniten-
tiaries than there used to be: there are
perhaps nearly two insane persons where
there used to be one; there are three
school children and young people wear
ing glasses where there used to be one.
The reason is to be found in the mod
ern system of education. The public
schools have been modelled on the col
lege of century ago, where the student
learned Latin and Greek, little ancient
history, with some mathematics and
physics, all out of books. Burning the
midnight oil while coming books was
the road to wealth and happiness The
book examining system has now reached
the point where it must break down. 1t
has proved utterly inadequate to the
needs of mankind at the threshold of
the Twentieth century. We must have
a new system of training for school chill
dren. The kindergarten plan through
out is the true one.
The new system must educate the
child harmoniously, developing his
physical moral, mental and affectional
natures. 1t must introduce him to life
with trained eye, hand, heart and rea-
soning powers. He must learn to think
instead Of to memorize.
The beginning of the new education
will be to burn the dead pile OF books
which Is breaking down the youth.
Printed rules Of rhetoric, grammar,
punctuation and composition must be
the first to go. What does il profit any
human creature to know the definition |
of synechdoche, anapest, or even the diff
ference between a metaphor and q sim
ileS What good is served by torturing
a poor little wretch till he learns TO re-
peat the rule for long division2
Aschool superintendent of many years
experience says that the boys who re-
cited the best lessons and memorized
rules best sunk in after life to inferior
positions, while the ones who had to
take time to think were those who
climbed into prominence. Physical per.
moral culture, the sentiment Of
brotherhood, the power to reason, polite
ness, manual training and the three RS
are what we want in common school
education now. Specific training for
particular trade or profession can be
upon this.
Clear away the old trash. Make room
'or the new education which takes in
he whole human being. The teacher
who sees this and applies it first will be
he one whose pupils will never tire of
chool, the one whose pupils will enter

Cooperative farming colonies have
proved success in New Zealand. In
the northern island of the group the
British colonial government sold three
blocks of land to three groups of set
tiers about six years ago. The pioneers
worked the land on the cooperative
plan, while the ultimate intention was
that each family should in time pur-
chase its own separate home. Orchards
have been planted and grain and other
crops raised. The settlers are rapidly
paying for their homes.

George w. Gables has his say in The
Cosmopolitan about the education of
the poor whites and blacks in the south.
He tells us first that the idea of the
south throughout is that that country
should be governed by gentlemen. "a
citizenship of and a government by gen.
tlemen only is the perfect formula Of
social order and fortune" to the south
erner. This is beautiful ideal indeed,
if only country does the utmost in its
power to make all its citizens gentle
men.
The first preparation for this ideal
state is the education of the common
people, and in this respect Mr.. Gables
believes the southern states to be lack
ing. He finds that in the south generally
there is ample state provision for the
education of white young men whose
fathers are able 10 pay for their sons
schooling. There are costly select
schools, colleges and universities every
where for the few, while the children Of
the many are growing to manhood in
blank ignorance.
The state outlay for the University of
South Carolina is 1884 per student. The
state outlay per pupil for the children in
the public schools is $1.S4. The total
value of all the public school buildings
In South Carolina is less than one-quar-
ter the value of the property of the uni
versity and military institute-the two
higher schools maintained by the state.
A like condition prevails in the other
states. Mr.. Gables quotes the statement
of the commissioner Of immigration for
Alabama that the lack of public schools
is what prevents people from settling In
Alabama.

He Was Not Drowned.

A young bachelor, who lives north
east of here, says the Cando IN. D.
Record, had a rather rough experience
the other day. He was coming 20 town
and had to cross the big coulee. Not
thinking the water SO deep, he drove
his mule team III, thinking he could
easily ford the coulee, but he had not
gone far before the mules commenced
to swim and the wagon box was lifted
off the wheels. He was compelled to
let the mules 90, and he succee ded in
getting ashore, but the mules and tox
were on the other side, SO he concluded
to swim across.
For convenience sake he took off bis
clothes and swan to the place where
the box was lodged. By climbing up
into the box it tore loose from the bank
and was rapidly carried down the
stream with the bachelor in it, not
stopping until Il reached a clump OF
willows. About this time a young
school marin, who had been out for a
walk, came across the bachelor S
clothes, and thinking the bachelor was
surely drowned, she gathered up the
clothes and ran home to give the alarm
1t was not long before the coulee bank
was lined with men, women and chill
dren, all anxiously seeking the missing
bachelor, who was at last discovered
hiding in the willow brush, and who
begged them to GO home and get his
clothes

A NICE OPERATION.
From a Surgical Point of View 1t Was a
Great success.

From a Surgical Point of View 1t Was a
Great Success.
The privilege of going about day after
day with an improvised covering of
gold to take the place Of the roof of
ones mouth is one that is not accorded
everybody. There is, however, one
young man who bears this distinction
SAYS the San Francisco Chronicle, and
to all intents and purposes appears to
be as comfortably equipped in that re-
spect as anybody who is the possessor Of
the regular old-fashioned mouth.
Charles Deveney is q years of age
and lives in Virginia City. About three
weeks ago he came to San Francisco to
consult with physicians regarding an
unnatural growth which had formed on
the roof Of his mouth. The superficial
substance was found to be q cartilAgin-
Gus growth, partaking Of the nature of q
tumor, located on the right side of the
mouth cavity, which, besides incroach-
ing upon the structure OF the interior
bones, had made serious inroads upon
the nasal cavity, resulting IN the nose
being rendered a useless ornament as
we'll as interfering with the faculty. of
articulation in that it allowed no play
fer the tonge.
-A1dC1 u dlttS1VOSib VI IIfG SdSS II w
decided to make an artificial roof for
the mouth to take the place of the bone
structure which would necessarily have
10 be removed in its entirety. An Incl
sion was made through the middle of
| the upper lip and continued along the
! right side of the nose to the inner cor
ner of the eye. This done, the flesh
was laid back on the side of the face.
| Then the two inclsors were extracted
| from the gums and a fine saw was intro
duced into the nostril, which cut
| through and separated the bone on the
| median line. The side of the nose was
laid back and the supertiuous growth
| exposed. The operation was continued
| by the section of the maxillary and
nasal bones with the use of the saw and
the process completed with bone for
ceps. By means of Lyon mouth for
ceps the growth, with the wish-bone at
| tached, was wrenched off. Then a
quantity of gold fashioned to fit in the
cavity was put in, and Deveney now
carries 5000 worth of gold in his mouth.
In medical parlance the disease is
called enchondroma and is rarely to be
met with.

They Settled AZ Outside.

A good thing has just leaked out con-
corning a church fair held in Utica not
long ago, says the Observer. When the
booths were being put in position two
men had disagreement as to what po-
sition in the hall certain booth should
occupy. It was a small matter, of
course, but each disputant thought he
was right. There was a war Of words,
and ONE invited the other outside to
settle the difficulty. Those who wit
messed the settlement said that it was
unique and amusing. Which party set
the bail rolling will never be know.
There WAS a swish Of fists in the air,
two angry grunts, sprinkling Of blood
from two damaged nasal appendices, a
wh1rl Of arms and legs, and the booth
builders rolled over one another in the
mud. Two sorrylooking pillars of the
church they were when sent home to
recuPeratte: The booth went up, but
factory has not been learned.
