For many years the territorial board

made a plea for a reduction In the
valuation. They c%ontended that
eight dollars a head was a fair valua-
tlon for cattle all over the territory.
The board made a cut 10 the valug.
tion, but not as large as was asked,
and fixed It at nine dollars for the cat

doubt about its being the best. No
other will cure a cold so quickly. No
other is so sure a preventive Of pneu.

SOME OF the New Mexlcans who are
opposing joint statehood are telling
how unfair It is to New Mexico in a
financial way. They say that the
debt OF New Mexico is less than a
million, while the debt Of Arizona IS
mor than three millions Of dollars.
The Liberal has examined into the
proposition and inds that IL is true,
and Is not true, according 70 she way
you look at II. Governor Brodle's re.
port Of the condition OF the territory
at the end OF the last fiscal year, June
30, 1904, shows that the total debt Of
the territory Is 80, 1855, 275.2 %. That Of
this amoun 81, O4l, 1902, SO Is county and
city indebtedness, funded by the terri.
tory, which leaves the actual debt Of
the territory 81 ,Ol0, 972 43, not enough
larger than the debt Of New Mexico to
be worth quarreling about. In Arizo.
ma the legislature provided that an
the county bonds should be backed by
the territory, which guarantees the
payment OF the interest, and Of the
principal, at maturity, aud collects
the money TO do II with from the
counties. This lnsures the regular
payment OF the Interest on the county
bonds, which makes them a better In
Sestment, and so they can be hoated

There are many things the LIBERAL
knows little about, aud one OF these is
the ancient and mysterious game OF
golf. It has drawn from reading that
IL is played by knocking a ball over
the country with various sized sticks,
but how the score is kept is still a
mystery. Is the high man out, or
does the low man win? Does the man
who makes the most points win, as he
would If playing whist, or, like hearts,
does the man who gets the most lose?
The Liberal got interested in this
by reading the score OF a game played
at the County club iu Los Angeles last
Saturday, 10 which two ArizOnans had
a hand, aud one of the ArlzOnans aud
her partner Won, or else they were at
the tail end of the race. The other
Arizonan stood next to the bottom II
the arst one won, and If the first
mentioned lost be stood next to the
top. Mrs. Charles M. Shannon and
ker partner had 60 points. No other
couple had so few. Then came eight
more couples with scores running up
to SO. Then came the other Arlzonan,
Frank Hudson, and his partner with a
score of 90, and then another couple
with a score OF %. Mr.. Hudson was
either second nigh, or he had the luck
to beat che team. Knowing Mrs.
Shannon's ability IL is a safe guess she
won. The LIBERAL hopes she did.

SHEEP-There was a much better feeling
In the big sheep barn today, sellers having
the advantage. There were about forty
five cars on sale, so buyers had plenty to
pick from. There was good demand from
all sources for supplies although trading
on the opening was trihe slow, sellers
stuff and h,tvers gstting a line on the re-
ceipts. Fat stuff ruled generally lower last
week, but today buyers showed an evident
desire for killers and prices on sheep were
l0ql5C higher than at the close Of last week.
Feeder buyers were out I'm force and had
plenty OF orders to fill. Trading on these
kinds was active and prices were stronger.
The feeling on lambs, both fat stun ana
feeders, was particularly good and the mar
ket l5q25c higher.

CATTLE-TheTe was a tair run of cattle
here today, about l72 cars being on sale,
with a good sprinkling of grass cattle
offered most OF which went for feeders
The quality Cf the receipts was fairly good.
Buyers were out carry today ana while
there was no excitement TO the trade the
cattle were picked up right along. In the
beef steer division the receipts were mostly
corn fed cattle, and there was little better
feeling than there was the latter part of
last week. The good corn fed stun and good
range steers were just about steady with
last Friday, while on some OF the commoner
kinds ana poor grassers the market looked
a little lower. 1t required but little pedd-
ling on the part of sellers TO dispose OF
their choice cattle and a partial clearance
was made in good season.
There was a fair supply of cows and
heifers here, the receipts including a good
many grass cattle. The feeling on cows
was a little better today and packers as
well as feeder buyers took on supplies
more freely. On the good corn fed and
choice grassers the market ruled fully
steady, sOme sales looking d little stronger.
The poorer grades were harder to move and
prices were a shade lower,
Bulls, veal calves and stays were in about
the same notches as Saturday, prices being
about steady, with fair demand for feeder
bulls.
The supply of stockers and feeders was
fairly good today, good deal of western
stun being included in the receipts, There
was a good call for supplies and buyers
picked up the stun in good season, there
being considerable activity to the trade.
Prices were steady to strong on the good
stuff, but looked lower on the commoner
