 irst sought an Inspector, 50 l could comply with the law in my slaughter ing. l was informed that the regular ly authorized Inspector was working in fouring mill at Santa Ana. Sono- ra, Mexico. He has been since em- pl0yed as fireman on the Sonora rail- way, and on the New Mexico & Ariz- ona railway. The work was being done by his brother, minor, who can not, under the law, hold an official position, and who was also employed as janitor at the custom house. This minor informed me that he was in- structed by authority not to inspect cattle before slaughteriDg. The in- spection of hides after slaughtering was declared all that was necessary.
 Who authorized the substitute in- spector to suspend part Of the law does not appear Upon inquiry at the hide house-th place where the hides are stored and sold I learned that the inspector came around only occasionally. The hides were then mostly put down in salt and the in- spector could not distinguish the brands nor the colors upon large proportion. Now, in all faith. ask what is the use of such an inspection, and how far does 1t protect the cattle raiser, or the butcher? What is the use of an inspection law which sub jects honest business men to annoy aDce without protecting the public?
 Why will not the cattle sanitary board appoint an inspector who will do bis duty, and enable the butcher to comply with the law? The people must have meat, the butcher must supply 1t; but the inspector can block tue supply CHAs. W. BECK.

Cattle Inspection.
NoeALEs. AElz.. Dec. !, Is97

MORALES, ATlz., Dec. [, lo9t To THE EDITOR OF THE OASIS:
 DEAR SIR; As dealer in meats supplying the people of Nogales, sub ject to the inspection Iawsof Arizona, i wish to present to the readers of THE OASIS few facts in which they are interested, because the proper en- forcement Of the law preliminary to the slaughter of beeves, cannot fail to interest them, as 1t is factor in de- termlning the supply from which they draw to meet their daily ueces- sties
 The law of Arizona provides that all animals slaughtered for meat shalI be inspected before killing, and the hides shall be preserved by the butcher, af- terwards inspected, and record of both transactions kept. The inspect or must keep a record, and the butcher must also keep record, which he must embody in a monthly report to the inspector. These records and re- ports must present the brands on each aud every animal slaughtered, and on each and every hide The object of all this is to provide an official de clafation which shall show who is responsible for the killing of every animal converted into meat, aud prevent the sale of beef made from cattle which have been stolen. To meet the object of the law and protect the cattle raiser, as the law intends, these inspectors must be accurate and reliable, and should be made by men who will attend to their duties and properly discharge them in the full intent Of the law.
