SANITARY BOARD-~The live stock
sanitary board closed it's three days
session in consideration of affairs un-
der its administration. Most of the
buriness was routine and the discus
gpection districts, none of which. how
ever, are of sufficient Importance TO
require publicity or that could be i'm
proved by it. The only ',ction that con-
Ceras the public generally was the fix
ing of dates of the open season, when
cattle may be brought in from points
below the quarantine line. Those dates
are from NO~embev 1. 1905. to January
81. 1906. inclusive.
CATTLE CONTROVERSY = Will
liam Speed, special inspector. repre-
senting the sanitary board, spent yes
terday in the city enroute from the
northern part of the territory to his
home at Wilcox. On the 12tn of the
month, at Mayer Mr.. Speed assisted
by the Arizona Rangers, seized five
head Of calves that were at the time
of the seizure in the possession of
Charlie EspinOza, who claimed a right
to retain them. His ownership was de-
MED by Judge Knapp, the justice of
the peace at Mayer, before whom a
hearing was had Wednesday. Accord
ingly the cattle were turned over to
the proper officials and sold for the
4 territory. Espinoza had formerly been
working a bunch of cattle on the
shares with James Morris, a we'll
known stockman of Yavapai county.
All of the partnership cattle had been
sold, however, at the time EspinoZa
branded the calves, and he did not
! have any mothers on the range. The
brand used was the same as formerly
run by the partnership, and it was
claimed that the calves were a part
of the Morris lot. Several other cases
are under investigation by Mr.. Speed
