SCHOOL MONEY
 |S APPORT|ONED
Over Eighteen Thousand Dollars Dis tributed Among the Various Counties This Time-Gila County Allotment.

Auditor Page was busy yesterday making out the warrants for the school funds of the respective counties, in ae- cordance with the apportionment made recently by Superintendent Long un- der the direction of the board of edu- cation, says the Republican. Every county has it's own school fund, of course, and there are many no doubt who do not understand just what this apportionment is, where the money comes from and how it is divided up, so brief explanation of it may be in tercstiug.
 The number of children in the vari ous counties, in proportion to popula ton and to property valuation, differs very widely. For instance, there may he one county possessing very little tax able wealth, yet having large school population, while another county may have great wealth and proportionately q much smaller school population. For each county to raise its own entire stnOni revenue Noulu iD SoiHc lnsiauCt- require tax that would be burdensomc else the school facilities would have to be materially lessened. A three cent territorial school tax is therefore levied to create fund to be apportioned tc the counties. not in their relative ratio of taxable valuation, but in accordance with the ratio of the school population of that county, to the school population of the entire territory. To this fund also is added the anrnel tax on insur anre companies and there are some rev cnue from other sources. From thi' fund are paid few minor bills suel as the salary of the school superintend ent and other school expenses, the re mainler going to the counties foI school purposes. IL is the custom [, make an apportionment to the counties whenever there is s2,000 or more in tn, fund available for this purpose. Thi latest apportionment is sixty cents foI each child of school age in the terri : tory and the apportionment to thu counties and the number of children il i each county is as follows:

Larger divf- dends arc coming which will greatly in. crease investment demand for such stocks as Amalgamated, Anaconda, Butte Coalition, Calumet X Arizona, Copper Range, Greene -Cananea, Gran by, Mohawk, Quincy, shannon and Utah Consolidated. It is probable, also, that Nevada Consolidated, Cumberland, Ely, Utah Copper, Boston Consolidated and Balaklala will soon begin to discount the starting of their new mills and smel ters, and it would seem that buyers of any of these stocks, after q period of liquidation such as has been witnessed during the past two weeks, must secure substantial profits in the very near fu. ture.

A STATESMAN AND A NoBLEMAN

A Washington correspondent in let ter to leading southern newspaper re- lates that distinguished senator from one of the southern states could i'll af- ford to expend $50 that it cost him to circulate 1000 copies of speech that he delivered the present session, and that excited the enthusiasm of his friends and extorted the admiration of his enemies. This man served four years in the house and is just completing a single term in the senate. He js vet under 30 years of age, just on the threshold of his intellectual prime, with its zenith some years in the future. He would have been an ornament to British parliaments that knew Burke and Fox and Pitt. He would have been distin- guished in American scnates that con tained Clay and Calhoun and Webster
 Yet he leaves the public service poor CT than he entered it, and must depend on his profession for a support. He might have been rich. He had but to stoop. Aristotles was the nobest Athe- nian of them all, and yet his raiment was threadbare. Calias, his kinsman, was the wealthiest Athenian, but the Athenians had a saying, 'Better to be poor like Aristotles than rich like Cal has," though Callias came honestly by what he had.
 But in the true sense, who dares to say this American senator is poorf Where is the man who does not respect him! Where is the man who does not admire himl All the wealth of either Ind would not buy for the base his lofty character, his unblemished honor. He retires from the senate regretted by all his fellow senators. He is, for a time at least, lost to the public service in an official capacity, but no such man as he can live, whether in public station nr private walk, single day ill vain. That brilliant intellect, that exalted character, those splendid accomplish ments will find way to do the work set before giants.
 His fate is that of thousands and thousands of other great men in repub- lies where universal manhood suffrage maintains, and his friends glory in the Spartan courage and Roman grandeur with which he has confronted it.

PROSPERITY TOO GREAT
Schiff Declares the United States is Suf
 fering from an Excess of Wealth

Jacob II. Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, New York. who never gives interviews for publication at home. has given one to the New York correspondent of n Paris paper, which publishes it today. Mr. Schiff said: -.
 "The conditions in which we find ourselves at present appear much mis- understood. particularly in Europe. Ii is a fact that we are suffering from an excess of prosperity which is simply overwhelming us. Our industries can not find labor with which to master the orders pouring in upon them; our rail roads are in need of equipment and ad ditional facilities to handle the i'm mense business of the country, and the banks can only furnish part of the working capital with which to do the unprecedented commerce which has de veloped.
 "As a consequence the great railroad corporations find themselves in need of large amounts of capital to provide the | facilities which the business of the country demands, and the managers of the railroads have wanted to make of the railroads have wanted to make certain of securing the funds they need. | Each of these boards of managers ap pears at present to try to get ahead of the others. In consequence scramble for corporate funds has arisen which to some extent is frightening money lend. CTS, more so, probably, in Europe than at home.
 1.-The result of all this is likely to be that corporate managers will only fin ish in the way of Improvements what has already been started. They will stop contemplated improvements and addi tions which have not yet been begun This will tend to diminish after a while the demand for material and labor, in consequence of which general business is likely to fall off. When this occurs, tain to become superabundant and in vestors will again compete one with another for the replacement of their funds. Corporations will then find no difficulty to borrow upon advantageous terms for the permanent funding of the short time obligations they are at pres ent putting out to supply their needs.
 "As an outgrowth of the prosperity the country has now enjoyed for almost decade some abuse in corporate man agement is coming to the surface, but, except for perhaps a too great aggre- gation of power in some instances, noth- ing really serious appears to have hap. pened. It is very certain that public opinion, the great corrector in the Unit ed States of all evil, has already assert ed itself and is having it's proper effect upon all corporate management.
 "On the whole, the situation is nei- ther unhealthy nor serious. The fact that the rate of exchange, notwithstand- ing the much easier conditions of the money market, remains considerably un- der the gold-shipping point, furnishes the best proof that our indebtedness to Europe cannot now be considerable. The country's borrowings in Europe last year have to a great extent been liquid ated through the shipment of commodi- ties. Paris cable to the New York Times.

THE RIGHT WAY

When the Baldwin murder case is all over the people of Gila county will be more than ever glad that they elected & brave and determined sheriff last fall. one who preferred to obey the law rath- CT than to bow down before a sudden gust of passion, says the Phoenix Re publican.
 Sheriff Thompson could very easily have eontrived to let the negro fend fall into the hands of the populaes and in the excited state of the public mind such lapse of his duty would no doubt have raised the sheriff, at least tenn pOrarily, in the estimation of his fellow citizens.
 It would have been all over by this time and the world would have heard of the lynching at Globe whereby not only Globe but all Arizona would have suffered damage. The supposedly funny writers of the east and morbid writers of cheap wild west fiction have already given this territorya reputation for law lessness which cannot be lived down within generation. So story of a lynehing in Arizona would have attract ed more attention than one would per. haps anywhere else in the country.
 Even those who were the more clam orous for an instant and terrible re- venge for the slaughter of Mrs Morris and her child will feel that the venge- ance of the law will be more complete and more nearly satisfying to friends of the victims.
 The acute fear in which the negro has lived since his capture and in which he will live until the trap is sprung; his daily dread and his nightly horror as he is relentlessly brought nearer and nearer to the scaffold will be punish ment indeed, whereas his death, if ac. complished by the mob, whether by burning or hanging, would have been administered to a wretch under an an aesthetic of fear.
 But the question of the acuteness of the murderer s suffering is not properly to be considered. The main thing is that he be punished according to law so that the reputation of the commun- ity for orderliness may be increased

Balk at Tights

If Shakespeare hadn t put so many cavaliers and cogrtiers wearing tights in his Merchant of Venice the eager Denver public would enjoy the rare treat of witnessing the great produc. ton by the Woman s club. But the pub lie hopes have been shattered and the women with ambie,sns to display their talents in Sbakespearian roles have giv en up the idea. There will be no "Mer chant of Venice.
 And the wicked old tights are tc blame. The enthusiasm at the club was at fever heat when the crushing blow descended The matronly members of the club were told that all who took the masculine parts in the play would have to wear the garb of the times when Shyloek was doing business. IL took their breath away and a storm of nays made the daring manager and trainer seek safety behid big chair Denver dispatch to the New York World.
