returned TO Phoenix last night
from trip of investigation OF the
cattle condition OF Skull Valley.
Beloat and Oscar Roberts, a deputy
sheriff, have about 800 head Of
cattle running in the Skull Valley
district and few days ago re-
ceived information that cattle were
diving in that locality for the
want Of food and water. This was
what caused Beloat to make this
investigation. "The condition is
the worst that | have eyer seen in
this territory and / have been
here since 1882" remarked Beloat
last night. II went to Kirkland
on the train, and got a saddle
horse there, and rode through the
Skull Valley district. What | saw
sickened me, and would sicken the
heart of any cattleman. | found
COWS both young and old dying
for want of water and feed. | also
found carcasses of many that did
not have the strength to further
continue their effort for food, and
had sank down and died, starved
to death. The cattle are so poor
that most OF them stagger when
they walk. There is absolutely
nothing for them to eat, as even
the brush that was never known to
die until this winter shriveled up
and is worthless. Roberts and |
will get what cattle we can to-
gether next week, and ship them
here, and have them sent to the
ella River, where the mesquite is
S a d to be abundant. Cattlemen
with whom | talked are complaining
bitterly about the Santa Fe Rail-
road Company raising the rate on
carloads OF cattle from the Skull
country to Phoenix, and if
it were not for the poor condition
Of the cattle they would all be
driven in"

great forests of mesquite timber,

PACKING HOUSE PROJECT
Prest. Jesse NJ. Smith Of Wool Grow.
ers' Assn. Says il Will be Success.

President Jesse NJ. sHHh OF the Utah
Wool Growers association, expresses
qualification with the results OF the
| Portland conventions. There seems to
have been harmony and good feeling all
round. and a pleasing feature was the
appearance OF President Harding OF
the National Woollen Manufacture as
ISOLATION from New York This visitor
made an address In which he explained
that the eastern manufactures were in
sympathy with the main intent and
purposes Of the antl-shoddy bill. but
there were certain features Of II that
II carried out would work hardship
on the manufactures without confer
Ing any corresponding benefit on the
live stock interests. so the conyen lion
appointed committee to redraft the
the bill, so as to eliminate the objec-
tionable features,
AS TO the proposed packinghouse pro-
ject to be backed by the stockmen, Mr..
Smith Is confident that this viii be n
success. II was al first thought the
best Plan would be to make ID one large
plant, but afterwards the best plan
seemed TO be 10 establish plants at the
large centers-eastern plants for east.
ern cattle interests. and western plants
Tor western cattle interests. For in
stance. plants would be built at Seattle,
Portland, san Francisco, Salt Lake and
Denver 10 care for the western trade,
and plants at the large eastern cities
to care for the packing interests In the
country tributary to them. Mr.. Smith
did not have any Idea what the present
packinghouses would do. but IL they
cut or changed prices, these prices
would have to be met. He felt conf
dent the new packinghouse combina-
tion could hold its own against the
present big houses no matter what
they did Mr., Smith had noted that b.
+, saunders had doubts about accept
ing the presidency Of the new packing
syndicate, hut arrangements had al
ready been made to take the bulk Of
the load from his shoulders, so that he
would be able to remain the head OF the
syndicate, The new scheme will save
the stockmen a great deal Of money
that would otherwise h& paid out for
shipping cattle to distant markets.
Mr.. smith said that while the attend
ance at Portland was not equal to that
OF the Salt Lake or Chicago conven-
lions, still II was good and n represen-
tatlve body Of men. About rs delegates
from Utah went as far south as Los
Angeles. Mr. Smith gave California a
fair looking over, and concluded that
Utah was good enough for him, He said
the fruit growers appeared to he pros

grain growers and farmers hardly
compare favorably with the Utah farm
