THE political reports from Arizona
indicate that Col. Wilson has got a
little the best Of 10 in the race for the
nomination as delegate. He and @.
M. Shannon stood about even on the
number Of delegates with Maricopa
county not counted. Marlcopa had
It's primaries last Saturday, and it is
reported that Col. Wilson was con
s:derably ahead 10 the number Of del
egates there chosen. The convention
will be held in Tucson next week, and
then the matter will be settled. 1t
certainly is too close to be comfortable
for either one Of the candidates. Tits
IS neal certain as anything a be in
politics that the nominee OF that con
vention will be elected delegate.
Whether Arizona will be a territory
long enough for the delegate to bt
sworn In is another question.

There is an old allegorical picture Of
a girl scared Of a grass-hopper, but in
the act Of heedlessly treading on a
snake. This is p|aralleled by the man
who spends a large sum of money
building a cyclone cellar. but n~eglects
to provide his family with a bottle OF
Chamberlain's collie, cholera and
diarrhoea remedy as a safeguard
against bowel complaints, whose vic

ANOTHER child was burned to
death 10 El Paso this week, the fire
being caused by careless handling Of
low grade coal oil. There is no coal
oil inspection Law in El Paso. There
IS such a law in New Mexico. Coal
oil costs more in New Mexico than 10
does in El PasO. The El Paso people
often cOmmiserate with the New
Mexico people because they have TO
pay so much for coal oil. No children
are burned TO death in New Mexico
by low grade coal oil.-Liberal
We do not know what kind Of oil
they use 10 New Mexico, but we do
know that the article used in El Paso
will burn II you put IL in the fire. We
infer from the LIBERAL that the oil
sold in New Mexico is not Of the burn
Ing brand, and consequently must be
OF a very inferior quality. Good oil
like good powder, will not stand for
careless handling.-El Paso Times.
The Times, like some other people
who are anxious to save a few cents
on the price OF their coal oil, at the
chance Of burning a human being to
death ought to give the matter OF oil
a little attention. The mistake made
in the last sentence in the above quo
tation from the Times shows it knows
little or nothing about coal oil. Good
oil Is not like good powder, and IL will
stand for careless handling. As II is a
most patent fact that coal oil will be
handled carelessly, the legislature
took c~ognizance OF II, aud determined,
even II it cost a few cents more per
gallon, to have an oil that could be
handled with comparative safety by
its citizens. No oil car be sold In
New Mexico that will not stand a
fash testof l3%O,degrees. For the ben
eft Of the Times 1t will be explained
that the coal oil that is up to this test
will not burn at the ordinary tenn
p~erature. II you put a lighted match
into the oil the match will be extln-
gnlshed. The oil must be heated TO a
temperture Of 1870 degrees before IL
produces a gas that will flash at the
approach OF a flame. This Is the
safety test. There are other tests for
quality which guarantees a good
Illumination. Not so much Of the
aw petroleum can be made into such
oil as can be made into the kind Of oil
that is sold 10 III Paso, consequently
the manufacturers have to charge
more for it than for the dangerous
kind. Most Of she people 10 New
Mexico are willing TO pay for it. The
LIBERAL is sorry 70 say that there are
a few people 10 the territory as penu-
gious as some OF the people In Fl Paso,
and are as willing 70 chance the burn
ing TO death Of children for the pur-
Bose OF saving q few cents but there
ere not many Of them.

don that street 20 Good purposes.
They figured that IL a channel was
left for the water the water would
follow the channel, and TIE rest OF
the town would not be flooded. This
theory worked very well foT a year or
so, although it was a little hard on
the owners Of real estate fronting on

larged the channel In the middle Of

close TO the foundations Of the build

A GRATIFYING SIGN.

The school board in the town OF
Conway acted wisely in raising the sal
arv of Prof d. l.. Paisley rather than
hermit him to go elsewhere. He hau
given universal satisfaction and his
value was known to the community.
Conway did not propose to let TeXar-
kama or any other town get the prlE-
cipal of her public schools merely for
monetary considerations. In this her
school board manifests spirit and en-
terprise well worthy of emulation.
Mann ,.dnmunities have permitted
their BEST teachers to be hired by 9th
er schools, aud in this manner the
schools have deteriorated. Naturally
theaverase teacher will seek the best
paying field and each school must
look out for itself, Conway has set a
good example for towns and communl-
ties that have good teachers -Arkan-
sas Democrat
The action of the school beard OF
Conway is one of the most gratifyinS
signs Of the times. There is a general
awakening in regard to the value OF
our educational interests. People arc
coming more aud more 20 realize that
the schools are the most important
interests of any community and that
good school officers and good superin
tendents make good teachers. Coed
superintendeHts and good teachers de-
mand and should receive good sala-
ries Just as good men receive good
wages in other callings. It has not
been many years since there was only
one superintendent in the United
States who received an annual salary
of more than $4,000 Now there are
scores who receive that and much
are. One is paid $4,000. another
-~0. and another $4,000 The tend
ency is Upward everywhere. There
is a general movement to retain men
of first class business ability. high
scholarship, and great energy in
charge of the schools
No school board can afford to allow
good men, who have demonstrated
their ability by the high and efficient
character of their teaching, to leave
the schools because Of few dollars
