There is yet n ore to the school land conflict in both the houses of the leg islature than has yet been brought to the surface. In spite of the fact that an attempt was made to drag the school land policy Of the state into the pro position Of allowing the Carnegie des- ert laboratory at Tucson to purchase the adjoining half section of desert land now school land. from the state. IL cropped up yesterday in the petitions that were received in both houses from the school land leasees of Yuma county. indicative of the feelings of the men who have been living on the land in that section. It is a well known fact that the senators from MaricOpa cOun- ty. have ever since the beginning of the first session of the state legislature contended that the land conditions of this state are so diversified that one arbitrary policy will not fit the situa- ton. The filibuster conducted in the first and second sessions of the state solons successfully killed any attempt To bind the state to an arbitrary policy with regard to the public land
 It is also cOntended that some of the ldllu SllOulu De SOlQ, ana OlUeE or the land retained. that the state in the operation of it's land policy should act just as an individual land owner would act. and should there be a desire to sell q part of the land, it could be sold and the title to it delivered to the purchaser.
 Especially is this true with regard to the land existing under the govern ment reclamation projects, and the pri- yate reclamation projects of the state It is accepted as nearly an impossi- bility to get an amendment to the rec lamation act through congress, allow ing water to be delivered to the state as owner of more than 160 acres of land. It now is the contract between the government and the water users that water cannot be delivered to more than l60 acres in one title. This con tract based upon the reclamation act is the act that some seek to amend and others believe next to impossible of amendment. Under the provisions of thn act it is extremely hard for water to be obtained from the government for irrigation purposes and it is contended .a strict construction of the l60 acres clause will prohibit to the state and not until some solution of this prob lem is reached so that either the title to the school land can be acquired by

COMING TO THE DAVIS.
Edfson's Talking Pictures.

Talking Movies as the latest inven- Ficn of Thomas A Edison is called, will make their first appearance in Norwich on Friday, June 2Tth, at the Davis theatre.
 One fact clearly demonstrated by these .'talkies'' is the perfect synchro- nism of voice and action. As in the cease of the first telegraph. telephone ana wireless telegraph. the first device embodyfng the cardinal principles of any new and startling invention, the thing itself has been achieved and has proved its possibility and practieabil- ity.
 All that now remained for Edison to do was to make the talking movies an absolute success in the entertain ment Of the masses and in the per formance of an even greater and more important function, the preSerVat tion for posterity of the words and deeds and appearances of the prominent men and women of all walks of life of the present day. The success which he has achieved from this invention will be clearly demonstrated to those wit messing the performance of these pie lures during their engagement in this city.
 The silent moving pictures have al- ready reached a high stage of per lection at the hands of Edison. It is well within the memory of everyone, the tremendous advance in moving pictures since the early days Of the dickering. eye e-Hring cinematograph films that because of the great ex- pense of their manufacture. attracted at first only the adventurous spirits among promoters.
 The talking machine now combined with the moving pictures is the latest and perhaps most wonderful of all the results of Edison's tireless and persist ent work in the realm of electrical science Those failing to witness these pictures should do down in the annals of history as missing the greatest en- fertsinment of its kind ever put be- fore the American public. A two and a half hour show with four feature vaudeville acts.
