The Reform school.

The Benson Press of Monday saS $ that at depth of Io75 feet How ot water was struck in the artesian well sunk upon the Territorial Reform school, at that place. The contractor had notified the trustees that he had reached the limit of the contract without striking water, and he withdrew his drill; but upon the following day the water was found flowing over the top. The volume was not very great but it was a flow. MT. Gerwein, the resident trustee, immediately ordered the dril put down again and sinking resumed to develop the flow.
 The Press of the same date pre- sents the advertisement of the Re form School Board for bidders upon construction of the building. Plans and specification are to be seen at the office of Frost & Rust, archi- tects in Tucson, the bids will be received at the office of the board, in Tucson until the 10th of Sep tember. Work will doubtless begin shortly after and the structure will be brought to completion with all due speed. It will he very hand some structure, and credit to Ari. Zona.

Stockman: Word comes all the way from London town that 1t has been discovered there that great big cat tie trust, to be controlled by the Standard Oil Co Is one of the things just now in contemplation. The plan is to control the cattle trade or the whole world in ten years from date. An American promoter is at the head of the scheme, he already being in the employ of the Standard Oil people. It is said that the Rockefelers, after critical survey of the American in- dnstrial situation came to the concu- sion that the cattle is the most pro- missing investment for the future that the country holds.

EDITOR HE OASls.
 One Of the most serious evils our town has had to contend against in the past is the constant rob bi ng, petty thieving and general outlawry of the numerous toughs, both adult and juvenile, with which this com munity has always been cursed. There is not day passes but what some cit- izen suffers at the hands of these gentry, and the cases made known to the public or the officers are but small fraction of the cases occurr ng, Is there no remedy?
 have heard officers here say: What is the use of'arresting the Kids?-they are too young, and the law does not allow us to punish them;" and in the case of adults: "What is the use of putting the county to the expense of scores of arrests, trials and conyic- tions, and then feeding the prisoners? -there are too many of theml" have heard victims of the unlawful actions of these toughs say: What is the use of reporting my grievance to the ofiicers?-they will do nothing in the matter"
 But they will vie with each other in the arrest and prosecution of harm less drunks, who fill our jail and have to be fed scrambled eggs and other delicacies at the expense Of the tax payers, who elect officers and pay them salaries for the protection ol their persons and properties.
 Now this question has a much more important and wider range that would appear at first sight. will mention only one instance: We have voted thousands of dollars bonds fol the building and maintenance of | high school and grammar school. Th' time spent in study in the schoel-roou is but small part of the education 0 our youth. What is learned from eyi com panions and surroundings il public places and on the streets make more lasting impression on tn, youthful mind that what is taugh by the teacher in the school-room Many of our parents are sending thei children to distant schools, others arr sending them to private schools here
