Clifton's Public School.

The present enrolment in the school is about 125. Of this number AS are in the principals room, constituting the third, fourth and fifth grades. A division of the first and second grades into two sections, by which one sec tion come in the morning and the other in the afternoon, was both nec essary and advisable.
 Though handicapped by reason of the undesirable location of the school building, the teachers feel that their labors will not be in vain. There is no question, however, but that if we had larger building and more desir- ably located, that much better work could be done. Will not the progress i've citizens of Clifton take steps look ing to the immediate erection of a new school building? In no better way can you show your love for and interest in your children.

 Years of Suffering.

q suffered for thirty years with di- arrhoea and thought I was past being cured" says John s. Halloway, of French Camp, Miss. ''I had spent so much time and money and suffered so much that had given up all hopes of recovery. I was so feeble from the effects of the diarrhoea that I could do no kind of labor, could not even travel, but by accident was permit ted to find bottle of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after taking several bottles I am entirely cured of that trouble. I am so pleased with the result that I am anxious that it be in reach of all who suffer as I have" For sale by Dunn.

 We regret to notice that in the list of those who contributed to the Gal weston relief fund, published on page six of this issue, the amount contrib uted by the Arizona & New Mexico Railway company is stated to be $500 when it should have read S5O.OO. The error was not observed until that page had gone to press, hence we make the correction. The amount collected was $662.75, which was promptly for warded to the authorized authorities.
 The progressive nations of the world are the great food consuming nations. Good food well digested gives strength. If you cannot digest all you eat, you need Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It di- gests what you eat. You need not diet yourself. It contains all of the digestants combined with the best known tonics and reconstructives. It will even digest all classes of foods in a bottle. No other preparation will do this. It instantly relieves and quick ly cures all stomach troubles.-C. P. Dunn.
 Governor Murphy was asked when he would likely reach a decision in the Halderman case and replied that he was unable to say. The gravity of the case required the most careful study of all the matter which had been presented to him and he believed he would find it necessary to go to Co., chise county and visit in person the members of the trial jury and others who had figured in the case since the trial. Everything rests upon the af- fidavits, whose reliability is among the things which will have to be in vestigated.

 Some time ago Justice J. L. T. Wat ters, of Duncan, was compelled, in the discharge of his judicial duties, to im- pose fine of $1O on a woman for con- tempt of court. She paid the fine, under protest, and then, through w. E. Beck, instituted suit in the court of Justice Anthony Wright for the recovery of said fine, ''wholly unwar ranted by law, maliciously, unlawfully and willfully imposed" in the lan- guage of the complaint, and two hum dred dollars damages sustained to character. The case was before the court on demurrer Monday evening, F. L. B. Goodwin appearing for the defendant, and the demurrer was sus- tained and case dismissed.

 Justice Neil Munro announces that he is a candidate for election to the office which he now holds by appoint ment of the board of supervisors. When Justice Jones resigned last Jan uary MT. Munro was appointed to fill the vacancy and has made an efficient justice, and his official acts have met with general approval from the law abiding element of this precinct. Since two justices of the peace are to be elected at the ensuing election we do not belive our people could do bet ter than vote for MT. Munro. He is courageous, careful and cautious in the discharge of his official duties and makes an efficient officer and takes care to inform himself on all ques- tions and matters of doubt when they arise in the adjudication of cases which come under his jurisdiction. Great responsibility rests upon jus tices of the peace in Clifton and care should be exercised in the selection of competent and trustworthy officials. The past few months have demon strated that Neil Munro is well suited for peace officer and his election on November 9th should be assured.

 Messrs. Thomas Simpson, Jack Side. botham and E. A. Tubb composed the voluntary, self-constituted committee that canvassed the camp for funds to relieve the Galveston sufferers. These gentlemen are deserving of and enti- tied to consideration for their unset. fish efforts to assist suffering human ity, and their efforts in so doing were eminently successful. The notes of distress and appeals for relief are never unheeded in Clifton. True, in- deed, is it that 'Fone touch of nature makes us all akin.''
 Justice Shirley, of Metcalf, informs I tered in his precinct, and many, with poll tax receipts in their possession, refuse to have their names appear on the Great Register. So obnoxious and repugnant is the poll tax law, passed by the last legislature, that some electors feel humiliated when called upon to produce written evidence that they are entitled to exercise the con- stitutional right of elective franchise. The law should be repealed the first hour of the first day of the next legis- lative session. It was drafted by a lawyer of this county and introduced by w. W. Pace, of Thatcher.
 The recent rains, although coming late in the season, will prove of inn mense value to the ranges, upon which vegetation had started with most promising results. If there is no frost for three or four weeks, grass will grow and mature and the cattle upon the plains and in the valleys and which roam upon an thousand hills will be in condition to successfully withstand the rigors of winter and ready for market in the spring. The hillsides and the mountain summits, in some localities where the early and latter rains have been vouchsafed, are veri- table things of beauty, adorned with verdure and flowers which delight the eye of man and inspire the heart with trust and confidence in a propitious future.
