as well understand in the beginning Of the

not have his pick of the best unless he Is

VOLUNTEERS BROKE LOOSE
Riotous Performance at Prescott on
 Day Day.

Some of the volunteers of Whipple barracks broke out last Saturday night on the occasion of their being paid off They disregarded military regu- lations and started in large body for Prescott The unarmed sentries, unable to stop them, got out of the way to avoid being pushed down and walked upon. The stampeding volun- iteers reached Prescott in a solid pha- lanx and occupied Granite street and Whisky Row from end to end. Those l lthcroughfares have been the scenes of many a warm time, but the event of last Saturday night eclipsed all pre- vious proceedings in this line. Fights among the raiding volunteers were . frequent and arrests were even more
 numerous until the jails of Prescott and the guard house at Whipple were filled. To the credit of the Phoenix l boys it should be said that very few of them participated in these riotous performances, and many who did not do so were the very ones who might
 have been expected to be among the ringleaders. A very large majority of 1 the offenders were of the New Mexico volunteers. Several persons who came down from Prescott on Monday night testified to the disgraceful exhi-
 bition the soldiers made and one lady. prominent in the Phoenix schools, said she would go before the Red Cross society which will meet tonight and
 relate what she had seen and heard. A great many of the volunteers are
 deserving of the delicacies, even the
 luxurues and the comfort bags which have been furnished through the in gtrumentality of the Red Cross. Some of them are plainly deserving of noth- ing and it is hard to discriminate in l the distribution of these gifts.

SCHOOL HppORTlONMENT.
The Natter of a Change of System
 Being Agifafsd.

4 matter which will probably be brought before the next legislature will be the existing unsatisfactory method of apportioning the school fund. Un- der the present system the apportion- ment is made on the basis Of the av- craze daily attendance in each dis trict, say S25 for each pupil. It mat ters not that the pupil is not a resi- dent of the district It will be claimed in favor of an amendment Of the pres ent law that it is calculated to upbuil: some districts at the expense of others. and is eminently unfair when it hap pens that the damaged districts have been previously bonded and have been deprived in part of the means of re- deeming the bonds by withdrawal of 9 part Of the pupils. This would not happen if teachers of equal popularity and capability were employed in all districts, but trustees are not equally able to judge of his qualifications and some districts must suffer Two cases are cited. The first is the Osborne district north of Phoenix. which a few 7 tdIS dSO was ana DullI d handsome house of four or five rooms which were comfortably filled The growing excellence of the Phoenix schools drew so many away that now the apportionment gives the Osborne district only s950, and the district has fallen away until only one of the rooms of the spacious school house is occupied.
 On the other hand there is the Alma district in more or less remote neigh borhood. The trustees with discrimi- mating judgment have yearly been employing an excellent and popular teacher. Pupils go there from Mesa on one side and Lehi on the other, four or five miles distant. They go on horseback and in carts until the vii cinity of the Alma school house when school is in session reminds one Of an old fashioned county fair. In this way the apportionment of the Alma district has been raised to $3.375.
 It has been suggested that the law be so amended that the apportionment be made upon the number os pupils resident in the district If it could be amended compelling all trustees to ex- ercise equal judgment in the employ ment of teachers. then all schools would be equally good.

This is .05 less than last year. Items of interest for the Phoenix and union high school district are special levies showing the whole rate levied The rate for the union high school district Is .15 for maintenance. It was 20 last year. For the Phoenix school dis trict the rate is .29, .O9 for the interest on the bonded indebtedness funded and unfunded, and 20 for the redemption of bonds, amounting to $S,000, issued several years ago. In addition to this there is levy of .03 for the pay meni of bonded interest. The whole levy is therefore $2.67.
 The levy for the county general fund is .0S higher than last year, as that fund the present year fell so far short that for three months many claims against it have been paid by vouchers
 The road fund levy is only 02% less than it was last year. The clerk figures show beside the foregoing the levy for the various school districts.

army OF fifty thousand men TO subdue the rebellion
