TINPLATE AGAIN ADVANCES ~ PRICE

Plttsburg. July 10 (Specia).-The heaviest advance
in the price OF tinplate in one day In the history
OF the Industry in America made to-day by
the American Tinplate Company The advance
IL from 50 81 to A 81 box Of 100 pounds. Brokers
contend that the advance is out OF proportion 10
the advance given TO the wage earners and the
increased cost OF raw material In the last six
months the price OF tinplate has increased over IS
per cent. In January tinplae was selling at 81 65
a box OF standard size. The increase to 81 81 shows
a total increase In the price OF 81 72.
For the last month the American Tinplate Com
pany has refused quote prices beyond the
month, and four days ago stopped selling entirely:
Prices IN America still below the figures at
which Welsh tinplate could be imported and sold
at a profit The Welsh product is now set down at

which raises the price above that quoted by the
American company. not including the cost OF ocean

THERE'S MERIT IN TT.

The more the thinking people of Phoenix look into the water and sewerage proposition the more merit they see in it. It now costs the city and county nearly $7,5O0 a year for water. The interest on $150,000, the amount designed to be expended in a water system, at five per cent, is $7,5OO. It will be seen that the present annual outlay by the city and county would meet this interest charge. De- ducting the cost of operating the plant from the amount derived from individual water consumers there would be a handsome profit. Don't let the cry of increased tax ation mislead you. Look into the matter. Do some figuring on your own account. The Republi- can tomorrow will present some data in this connection that will be interesting.

THE LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY.

| The great importance of the livestock interests may be estimated from the following article taken from the Kan sas City Times:
 The four leading western markets,
 says the Times. are Kansas City, Chi cago, Omaha and St. Louis, at which
 points 1,847, ,OOO cattle. hogs and sheep
 were slaughtered by packers in 1898.
 This number is 3,842,0O larger than in 1887. Hogs took the lead with 23.4OO,- 900, sheep followed with 4,647 900 and
 cattle. the highest priced individual animals. followed with 3,SO0.GOO. There
 were 3,760,000 more hogs slaughtered in 1898 than in 1897. 5000 more cattle and 1000 less sheep, 50 tEat is can be readily realized how much larger was the consumption of American hog products in 1898 than during the pre- vious year.
 The packing of hogs or. large scale has been carried on in the United States for ] half century or more, in creasing as the western states were de- veloped. At one time Cincinnati was the leading pork packing point. so much 50 that it was known as Porko- polls. For a number of years, how ever. it has not taken the prominent position it once did, Tor the great corn producing states are further west and where the supplies of corr are plentiful there will be found also hogs in abundance. The slaughter of hogs in the west has shown an increase during the last three years. In 1896 the number was 945, 600 larger than that of 1895, and in 1897 it was 3,419 900 more than in 1S96 As already stated the slaughter last year was 3,760 900 more than in 1897. It was the large corn crops of 1895. 1896 and 1897 which caused the increased production of hogs and this makes prominent the fact that large yield of corn is far reaching in it's beneficial effects.
 For tweGty-three years cattle have been slaughtered by yves tern. packers, but the increase since 1883 has been great For instance. in 1883 there were 1,111 ,0OO cattle slaughtered in the west. which number was increased to f, ,104. GOO in 1893. since which year that has not bes1 equaled. This may arise from the fact th2. thc slaugh- ter Of sheep increased from 3.278. 900 in 1893 to 4,654OOO in 1897. The immen- sity of the live stock trade of khe west can be easily realized from thY figures given,

AS VIEWED IN WASHINGTON.

The Washington Post of January II contained the following complimentary remarks concerning The Republican, which are thoroughly appreciated in this office: MT. c. c. Randolph, net many years ago one of the best known and most efficient capital correspond ents, is achieving deserved success as editor and proprietor of The Arizona Republican. He has enlarged and mod ernized the paper until it is not only credit to Phoenix, but takes rank with the very best newspapers in the great and growing southwest. More over, the people Of Acizona are show ing their appreciation of 8 wide-awske newspaper by giving The Republican a mos. substantial patronage. All of which is highly gratifying tO>Mr. Ran dolph's friends in Washington
