COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT \. C.. LAYTON was a visitor in the city Tuesday. The judge is looking up the reason why so many children do not attend school. According to the last school census there were 19S children in this district of school age and at present the aver age attendance is hardly 100 pupils. There is something radi- cally wrong somewhere and this move by Mir. Layton will undoubt- edly develop some good results. Arizona has very few residents who are not able to send their children to school, while the great majority are far more able to do so than the people of some of the eastern states Possibly the fact that money can be made more cas- fly here has something to do with this non-attendance, but what is money compared with even the commonest school education? Send your children to school, there is plenty of time for them to gather in the sheckles later on-

Superintendent's Notice.

From monthly reports coming from the different school districts, it appears that about 45 per cent of the children enumerated in the last school census reports, for some reason, are not taking advantage of trying to get a public school education.
 This is not as it should be Par ents are standing in their own light when they neglect this important matter, when education is so cheap and the facilities so much better than when some of the older gener- ations had to walk from two to four miles every day and sit on the flat side of a rail in the "Old Log School House"-and many of those same people who labored under those disadvantages are now among the brightest people of the times.
 A little sacrifice on the part of parents, while their children are of school age, will not be regretted in after years
 There is a compulsory school law on the statute books which will be put into operation in the near fu- ture, if it is found to be necessary. This law does not apply to parents who absolutely need the services of their children to help sustain the family, or who through sickness or poverty are unable to send their boys and girls to school, but it does apply to those who are able and re- fuse or neglect the opportunity. This does not apply to any one dis trict, but all, alike.

From the REALM Of old Rameses, from the tabled
land of MI,
Where the river horse is summing, and the vu-
tuTes slowly fit;
From the sacred halls Of Isis by the ryrsmidal
pile,
Comes a murmur and protest a1inst the dam,
ming Of the Nile.
From Assouln to Denderah, by the obelsk Mu;
From old Memphis 10 the Delta, whence the
shocking rumor flew,
Every river reed is Kissing to each angry crooo,
die,
All condcmning, all obicotins TO the damming
oi the Nile.
And the iackals and lNcnas, trottng round with
motions brisk,
Raise their heads and howl dcmurrers TO Old
Lms's yellow disk;
While the camcls get their backs up in an agon.
izing style
As they hump along in anger o'cr the damming
Of the Nile.
They are calling to Osiris and TO Baal and Meier
Tum,
All the mystic gods invoking with the chanting
and the drum;
and they pray to Pash, the mighty, in this bitter
hour of uial,
By each sacred beetle swearing 'gainst the dam,
min; OF the Nile,
All the mummies are awahing in their wraps OF
fragrant myrrh,
There's a rustic and stirring and gentle, spicy
whir;
All the Pharaohs and Thotmes are arousing hlo

Aud the very Sphinx is scowling at the dam.

POLITICAL development ev-
~ identity destined to affect
4 N largely the future of the Re-
publican politics of New
York state and possibly of the country
has just eliminated at Albany in what
is tersely described in the newspapers
as IA break" between Governor Odell
and Senator Platt.
There doubtless have been many con-
tributary causes to this parting of the
ways between men who have for years
been closely in harmony with each
other; but the conspicuous cause has
been an irreconcilable difference over
proposed legislation to rip Tammany
out of control of the police force in New
York city by means of "a bill creating a
metropolitan police district under a
commissioner to he appointive by the
governor. LIN his recent message Gov
ernor Odell took a strong position in
favor of doing away with the old board
of five police commissioners, in which
responsibility was lost, and a bill en-
bodying his idea by Vcsting control
ship, appointive by the mayor but re-
movable in certain contingencies by
the governor, was passed,
This bill centralized responsibility
without violating homo rule. In prin-
ciplc therefore, it was sound. But
Tammany ingeniously evadcd it by
naming a physical wreck as commits
soner and putting under him as chief
deputy the notorious Deyery, who as
chief of police under the former regime
had made his sympathy with vice
notorious. This so angercd Senator
Plat that he Immediately asserted his
purpose to have the legislature pass a
ripper bill as above outlined. There is
reason to believe that Governor Odell
through mutual friends strongly pro-
tested. He had gone on record in his
message against such a measure and
did not wish to be put in the position
of having either to stultfy himself or
to take issue with his lifelong political
friends. Platt was obdurate and re-
lentless. He had his bill drafted, re-
peatedly asserted that IL must be
passed and finally sent his son Frank
with notice to odoll that if the latter
did not fall into line ruin would over
take his political prospects. Then II
was that Odell declared openly and
without equivocation that he would not
recommend the bill nor sign it if it
came to him with the legislatures en-
dorsement.
Here the situation halts, Plat has
called conference OF party leaders
