This t flico Iiuh beeomo aware that but little or no attention is psid lo the law compelling children to attend school at least l'J weeks during the year. To look over tho stalisiica cue isiiurend that there must be many children of school age who do not attend our public schools. Thin law was enacted for a pursue, and it is apparent that tho purpose lontem plateil was to have tlio cblldreu attend the public schools in order that illiteracy and ignorance may be reduced to a mini mum. The safety snd welfare of the country depend i pun the flllciency of our tmhlic schools, a herein not ooly knowledge of books and literature is considered, but w here good government, loyalty and love of rountry are inculcated. The law Is on tiio statuto book, and should not remain a dead letter. The duty of seeing it enforced rests with tho boards of school directors, and tho cleiks of I hn several school districts. The clerks of Ihe several districts fcav iug tho number of pujiils in the etaiis lical roll, and the teach- r or teachers of Ihe dmtrict having the ages and number enrolled us in altendunco at school, some knowledgo may t o gained as to how nearly this law- ol echmil attendance is observed. This is also one of Ihe duties of the county superintendent, that he should acquaint himself with the attendance at school and give direction to the board of directors in regard to the matter of school atltendance. liring this law before the people, ac quaint them with ita requirements and penalties, and it is believed there will not be so many children ot the age in cluded by the law, who do not and will not atteud the public school. The state does not get near the value it deserves for Ihe Eiipfiort of the common schools, btcaupe of the fact that so many do not avail themselves J tho privilege. The state cannot afford to allow (his neglect and indifference of tho public schools to exist, but must, in somo way, see that the children have some education. High Water. Washington, March 12U. Colonel liil- lcsple, president of tho Mississippi com mission, has telegraphed General Wil son, chief of engineers, from . Vicksburg, uuder date of yesterday as follows: "The gauges along the river from Memphis to Vicksburg give a Hood read ing varying from l'j to 3 feel above any previously recorded readings. Tho feel ing everywhere is ono of uneasiness. All tho stale levee boards are battling against the rising Hoods regardless of cost. As yet no widely spread damage baa lieen reported, tnougu several breaks in levees above Greenville, ou both banks, have occurred. The levees aro seriously strained at all points." CiitKg.NVii.t.K. Miss.. March 10. A crevauHe occurred last night in the lsvee, seven miles south of Greenville, on the Mississippi side, through which an im munso volume of water is pouricg Into tho Itlack and Steele lhtyou country. The oneiiiiiu is 500 feet wide. Unless it can bo stopied, which ia highly im probable, all the couutry wobi ol l'eer creek aud the most prosperous part of the Pelta will be overflowed south of the Yazoo riyer. This break relieved the preemre somewhat on Greenville (rout. Alton, HI., March Hi). Conditions be come graver every hour.

The river is within less thau threo feet of tho stage reached in the middlo of May, last year, and willi nearly two mouths of wet weather ahead, the out look is gloomy. Thousands of dollurs have already beeu swept away in crops products, aud it is raining agalti, to that the prairies even back from the river, look liko lakes, and the preparation of laud (or spring crops if again deferred. A l'OPULIST'5 VILiWS On the Respective Merita of the Washington and Oregon Legislature. KniToit i'lainhbai.kks In lh I'l AiNDSAi.KBof March loth you ay that "Ihe representatives of the doc trines of populism had complete control of Imi houses ol 'be Washington legia Inture," and then blame them for hav ing failed to pass lha Initiative and ref erendum ami other reform measures re quiring a two-thirds majority. Now what are Ihe facta: The Washington senate consists of 84 members, of these 13 are straight repub licans aud 21 populists and fusioniste. Now according ta my arithmetic, 21 is less than two thirds if 81. aud therefore tbe 'rcpreseutsUka 1Ua lodrlnes of popolisni" are not responsible for the fai.ure to pass reform measures requir ing a two-thirds majority. I! tit although the l.'l republican members of the senate had Ihe power to defeat reform measures requiring two-thirds majorities, they ixiuld not pteveut liia fumori majority from pspiing law after law in the inter est ol the common people, such as are enjoied by tho eople of tio other state in the Union. And ( arr sorry lo say that the republican members did their lecl best to prevent the par sage of each and every one of tbem. Following are a few ol tho measures pam-d by the populist fusion Washington legislature : Reducing the expenditures over .'j50, 000, or about 30 per cent. l-.xempting homesteads to the value of $1000 from execution for debts. Exempting f-MX) wo'th of erronsl properly from taxation. Kxcmptmg f'lOO worth of improve ments on homestead from taxation. Aholiebing monopolistic fishing de vices. Submitting woman suffrage amend ment to the jieople. Knocking the gold clause contract iu the head. An aoti-felluii servant law (or (he pro tection of railroad employes. A maximum freight law on farm pro ducts. l'titting tire insurance companies under strict stale supervision. ( Remember our own "Stale" cf Sa.em robbery concern with l'hil Metchau at the head.) And a score cr more of etrictlt anti monopolistic measures) that gladden the hearts of populists all over this Nation. As to the assertion that the populist minority iu the Oregon ieginlature, on account of their refusal to bow to the dictates of the illegal Benson house, is resonsible for the failure of the last Oregon legislature to pass remedial legis lation, it is only necessary to state that the house consisted of 39 republicans, 17 iiopiilists and free silver, and 4 demo crats, aud as one popnlisl turned traitor and sided with the republicans (.Nosier), and aa some of the democrats aUo voted with the republicans it lakes come strango figuring to ho) J the few popu liBts resrionsible for the actions of the moro than two-thirds republican-democratic majority. And if the republican party had really been in favor of meas ures giving relief to the people, why did they not pass their reform measures two years ago when they certainly tiad com plete control? The fact is that two years ago tho republican majority disgraced itself snd the etate by buckiug against one another for forty days over the elec tion of liolph, and at the last lei-sion the republican majority continued the bulk ing exhibition during the whole forty days over the election of Mitchell, and the iKMiulist minority wisely stoood aloof. and would not sully itself by taking sides In Ihe disgraceful wrangle. What Ore- gou mostly needs todav is the same kind of a house cleaning. New brooms and new sweepers, like those that are mak ing our sister state, Washington, the promised land towards which the eyes of the toilers of this country are turning with renewed courage and nope.

Take a piece of the ore to be examined, powder it and paea it through a tine sieve, lake grains, or I hereabouts, ol I tie powdered ore, place it on an iron spoon and roast until no smell of sulphur arises. I'lace the the same in an evaporating dish and add twice the quantity of nitric acid, diluted with a little water. Heat over a lamp until citrous acid fumes eubside, dilute with a little more boiled rain, suow, ice or distilled water, and allow it to settle. If cloudy, the solution must lo filtered. If clear, carefully pour of Ihe solution from the sediment into a glass or test tube. Divide it into three portions in throe different glasses. Add to one por tion a few drops of common salt solution or muralic acid. This will precipitate lead and silver, if any, as a white chlo ride; add the salt solution untillhe pre cipitation ceases. Tour olf the solution and wash the precipitate with boiling water; this will dissolve it, ll lead, leav ing the silver in the residue, pour oil' the solutiou from Ihe preciptate and add anionia to the precipitate, which will dis solve it, if silver. The chloride of silver, if exposed to the sunlight, turns to a darker shade of color than the chloride of lead, and iu that case will not dissolve in ammonia. It should, therefore, be done quickly and under cover. Gold. lo tno original ana undissolved ore add (aqua regis) one part nitric to two parts dydrochlono (muriatic) acid, to cover the oio. Digest for half an hour gently over u lamp, add water until roil and place it iu a gluss or test tube. Now add it few drops ol chloride ot tin solu tion; if uold, a purple color will be shown "The Purple of Caosiu." This, on shaking, il loo much of tho chlotide ha not beeu added, will disappear. Add a little sulphate of iron solution, and il will form a brown precipitate, which will not disappear on shaking. Copper Add ammonia to a poitiou of tho tirst solutiou, and, if copper is pres ent, it w ill uive a blue culor. Iron. Add to another portion of Ihe first sulution a little of the ferro cyanide of potassium solution (yellow prtissiate polish). If ii on is present, deep blue color will be shown (l'russiuu blue).

A Constant Thorn In the Side of the Peace of Europe. Montreal Uaette. The Cretans appaar very often in his tory, and very seldom to advantage. It ia curious to note bow the same defect run through tbe records of centuries. Kven in Homer we find Crete divided Into nnmoroug small stales, and inhab ited by various races. Aristotle notes that Ihe island was admirably sailed from its position to take Ihe lead in Ihe Greek world of that day, but it waa al ways too much taken up with internal disputes. The Cretans took no part in the Persian or the l'elopponeaian war, or any of the struggles that convulsed an cient Greece, but the island did not en joy tranquility on that account, for il was periietualiy engaged in civil war. I'olyhius, writing 2000 years ago, speaks of Crete in much tbe same tone as might be sdopted by a newspaper editor today. In book XX IV, chapter 4, of his work, the Greek historian eat a: "lo Crete there was the beginning cf great troubles set in motion, if one should speak of a beginning of troubles in Crete, for, owing to tbe persistency of civil wars, and the acts of taagery practiced against each other, beginning and end are much the same in Crete, and what appears to some people to be an incredi ble story is a spectacle of every day oc currence there." fit. Paul is even more emphatic in his condemnation. He visited Crete, and found things in such a stale of confusion iu Ihe church that he left Titus to put things in order. Writing to him after wards, the Apostle quotes a hexameter line (one of the few classical quotations in the New Testsment) which hag evi dently pasred iolo a proverb. In the authorized lemon it runs: "One of themselves, even a prophet of their owo Siid : The Cretans aie always liars, evil beasts, slow tellies ;" and 81. i'aul emphatically adds: "This witness is true." He iherefoie exhorts Titus to re buke them sharply, and put them in mind to obey the magistrates, and not indulge in brawling. The Cretan Cbrist ains evidently retained the national cbaiacteristicB, as they do to this day. Ielt to themselves, tbe Cretar.e spent their lime in fighting among themselves, and their only chance of peace lay in suljnc'ion to a foreign despotism, to whuh their internal leuis made (hem ready victims. The island lormed part of the Roman Empire, then of the By zautiDe, and had been in the hands of the Saracens and the Venetians before, in the 17th century, it was conquered by the Turks. For a century and a half, the island enjoyed peace, if a despotic government of tbe worst kind can be said to be either peaceful or enjoyable. lo isi'l it joined in the Greek revolution, aud drove the Turks to the cities, but could not drive tbem out ot tbe is land. After a struggle lasting for over 12 years, the powers interfered and trans ferred Crete to the government of Me bomet All, viceroy of Egypt. In 1810 it was restored to Constantinople, and the result was another rebellion in 1359. This was of short duration, but another, begun in lSOG, gave the Turks a great deal of trouble. It costs them flO,000, 000 and 50,000 men to suppress, and at its close the Cretans were granted a limited form of self-government. As the Turks only obtain a revenue from the island of ll.COO.OOO a year, it is not surprising that the sultan shows no ereat anxiety about retaining il. Very few of the inhabi tants are Turks, though out of a popu lation of 200,000 there are 40,000 Mahom etans. Its area is 3300 square miles, and the interior consists of high cliffs and deep gorges, in which the Moslem sol dier is no match for tbe native moun taineers. In 1300 M. Delyaunis, now prime minister of Greece, was pouring the tale of the Cretans' woes into the ear of the Empress Eugenie. She cut off the conference with the remark : "Cep endaut, Monsieur, la paix de I'Knrnne ne sera pas troubles pour la Crete." i How ever, Sir, the peace of; Europe shall not be disturbed for tbe sake ol Urete ; Ap parently Lord Salisbury is of the same opinion.
