THE REFORM SCHOOL

Governor c. W. P Hunt was In Tue. son this week. arriving from Benson He attended meeting Of the board of regents of the state university.
 The governor had just visited the state industrial school for boys at Benson and he talked enthusiastically of lhe work being done by the school says the Star. He confirmed the re- port than number Of the students at the Benson school are being sent to Fort Grant, where 2.0O0 acres or land and number Of buildings that have been donated by the government to the state for the school are located.
 T think it almost certain that the industrial school will be located there." said the governor. "The legis- laturo will locate the school and have heard of no opposition to it be- ing oCated at Fort Grant
 The boys who have been Sent there are renoyatins the old Fort Grant buildings, painting the roofs and whtewashing the walls A valuation oI S24l,OOU was placed on the prop. erty donated by the federal goFern- worth half a million dollars to the ment but I believe that it is easily state. There is a water works there that is worth perhaps S5O.0O0. and there will be room for 1000 students.
 .I expect that the school will be used more in preference 10 the ordi- nary methods or treating unfortunate youths, when the new plant is com plsied. At Benson there is accOmmos dation for about 5S students and lO6 are housed there. so you see that the efficiency of the institution IS greatly crippled by lack of room.
 We expect 10 make a model school of manual training at Fort Grant and | believe that in three years it will De practically seifsustaining. We will train boys to repair and make shoes. tailor shop will be established where boys and girls may learn that trade a school for the training of barbers, d baker shop, 9 dairy and a carpenter shop.
 The school will be turned into a semi-military school continued the governor The federal government has donated one hundred army rifles to the use Of the school. This will give the students the advantage of a military training, will develop them into strong men and will teach them discipline and obedience"
 The school already has a drum and fife corps and q buEle corps, as well as a hand. which is under the IT, strucriOh or MT. Gunglc. who has had twenty five years training in that work in the United States army.
 The industrial scnOoI band will make a tour of the principal cities Oi the state m about six months" said the executive, that will give the peo- pie Of the state. an idea Of what We are irving to Go."
 Business Conditions.
 Speaking Of business conditions over the state Governor Hunt said. T have never seen time when there was so much encouragement and sat isgaclion regarding business eondi- tiOns
 The governor spoke or the quality Of rhe rural population in the new agriCultural districts. which he said was good for the future of the state over around Yuma one finds college graduates farming by scientific meth ods. | learned over thGTe that splne- less cactus is good for turkeys. that they thrive and fattCn on it, Ii is not OlliA III lAF HIiH<u NISNIltLSs uOM ever, that one finds satisfactory con ditions. for over at Bowie today I saw pumpkins that were several feet iu diameter that were grown by the dry farming method. ] think the state has a great agricultural future.
 T believe m the commission form of government said Governor Hunt in answer to a question. We have yet to try it ont in this state. but I believe that PhOenix will have it soon I believe that the principle Of it might be applied to county government as well as city government. Some people think that II gives too much power 10 the individual. but here in Arizona We have the recall and I do not thinK We need have any fears from that source.
 Abolish the Senate.
 'T am also in favor Of tine abolition of the state senate" the governor con tinued. T voted for it in the coustitu. tionsl convention and ! stin believe that it would he a good thing As it Is We nave practically three legisla-
