hope for action, but believe that after
 the establishment within this terri
 tory of a properly organized railway
 commission, that an adjustment of
 freight rates can be more promptly and satisfactorily brought about
 There are many matters of vital in terest to the cattlemen. both local and national. which will come up in the next few years, and l feel that an earnest effort should be made on the i part of every member of this organi- | Zation to increase the membership. also feel that just as much as possible an increased interest should be taken ! by the cattlemen of the territory in ! the work of the association. and that | they should feel free at all times to present their troubles to the officials | of the association so as to maintain that close community of interest which | makes for success.
 In order to make more effective the work of this organization. I feel that the annual dues should be increased | from $1 to $2 per member. and that in order to raise additional funds for the work of the association, a payment at the rate of one cent per head should be made each year into the treasury of the association by each member of the association for all cattle in excess of 200 head. This would bring a req sonable fund into the treasury and enable us to continue paying the re- ward which we now pay for conviction of cattle stealing cases, and to sarry on more successfully the general work of the association.
 In closing I wish to assure the cat tlemen that I have thoroughly appre- ciated the honor of serving as presi- dent of this organization during the past year, and ionly wish that it had been possible for me to have given more of my time and work to the pro- motion of the interests of the associ- atiOn.
 The cordial support which have re- ceived from the cattlemen throughout the territory has been most gratifying. and I shall always look upon my off cial connection with this association as one of the pleasant things of my life.
 The cordial support which I have received from the officers of the as sociation, and in fact from all mem bers with whom I have come in con- tact, has been most gratifying.
 There seems to be a general recOg- milton that this association is endeav- bring to do a work that counts, and I earnestly trust that as the years go on it's membership and influence may steadily increase.

PRIEST. HEARD's ADDRESS

At the first meeting or the Arizona Cattle Growers association, on Friday night, President Dwight B. Heard de- livered an address in the nature of an annual report which has since been favorably commended by the mem bers of the association and visitors in attendance. The address in full was as follows:
 During the past year considerable work has been accomplished of vital interest to the cattle growers of this territory. Among the principal mat ters affecting them has been a steady growth of a strong and favorable sen timent on the part of western stock men regarding the federal' control of the public grazing lands. Within the territory there has been an increasing realization that more favorable freight rates for the shipment of cattle both within the territory and to points out side, and in various local questions which have arisen in which the inter- est of cattle and sheep men were in vOlved, the association has been able, by prompt action. to safeguard as far as possible the interest of its mem bers.
 The last annual convention of the Arizona Cattle Growers association was held just year ago today. Among
Arizona republican., 1908-11-16

the important resolutions passed at that convention by an unanimous vote was the followIng:
 We, The members of the Arizona Cattle Growers association, favor a supervision and regulation of the pub lie grazing lands within this territory by the federal government through some system which would operate in an equitable, just and proper manner to all of the occupants of the range, and which would not interfere with nor hinder homestead entry at set per iods
 We suggest that a fair and just regulation of these public lands can be accomplished by leasing upon a per capita carrying basis. and in the event this method is determined upon, we favor the issuance of leases for periods of not less than ten years. We believe that under any system of gov ernment control the range rights of the present occupants of the grazing area as determined by priority of Oc- cupancy and use should be carefully safeguarded, and we urge that in the enactment of such a law for control of the grazing lands. it be provided that no provision of such law shall affect or in any way interfere with the sanitary live stock laws of this territory.
 Such a supervision and regulation can only be accomplished by the enactment of the proper federal laws, and we earnestly request congress to enact such laws.
 We deplore the devastation caused throughout the northern portion of the territory by the migratory sheep herds. and we look to the federal con troI of the public grazing lands to prevent this unfair use of Arizona's grazing lands.
 This resolution was largely brought about by the satisfactory and favora- ble treatment which the cattlemen had received while grazing upon the na- tionaI forests. and it was felt that the policy of federal control of the public range was of such decided advantage to the cattlemen of this territory that at the annual meeting of the National Live Stock association, held in Dem yer, Colo. January 21st and 22nd. 1908. a delegation of three members or the Arizona cattle growers, at their own expense, attended this important meet ing of the American National Live Stock association, held in Denver, Col. This committee was composed of MT. J. J. Riggs. MT. M. A. Perkins and Dwight B. Heard.
 The live wire of this convention was the active discussion by stock men present of this subject of federal control of the public grazing lands.
 The following important letter on the subject of federal control of the public range was received from MT. Clifford Pinchot:

4 MINE ON THE DESERT
The Bee Line Group Three Miles and a Half North West of Salome Shows Rich Gold, Silver and Cop per Ores.

Salome, Ariz., Nov. 1S.-(Special Cor respondence of The Republican)- Griffen and Baker report that their shaft, which is now down about seven teen feet, is all in ledge matter and well besprinkled with sylvanite ore. It is reported that on roasting some of this ore and subsequently, banning it, wonderfully rich prospects" were the result. The claims are about six and half miles northwest of here and about a mile and half from the Cal cite country.
 This region is on the south side of the Harcuyar range and mineral lodges occur along the contact between the broad schist belt which runs along the range and the granite, especially where the big diorite dikes cut across the country.
 Among the striking prospects in the vicinity is the Bee Line group, about three and one-half miles northwest of Salome and right out on the flat. As exposed in the two ten-foOt shafts on the property, the ore is very rich in gold. silver and copper and pitches di- rectly toward a big diorite dike, which parellels it about seventy-five feet fur ther south. The ore is cuprite and

TALK ABOUT SLEEPING.

Women are like men when it comes to sleeping. Plenty of restful sleep makes man strong and viz orous, and it makes a woman happy and beautiful. But both women and men can procure restful sleep by using Sexine Pills. It is well known that nervousness and overwork pre- vent sleep. It is equally well known that SeXine Pills produce that de- lightful relaxation that folds ones tired limbs in Natures arms while the unconscious body draws new life and vigor. Sexine Pills are the per feet tonic. They are guaranteed. They cost s1 a box; six boxes $5, with full guarantee enclosed.

Girl kidnapped by a Bear.
Pet Who Had Heard Call of the Wild Takes Former Mistress to
His Den In the Woods and Tries to Keep Her
There For a Playmate.

The strange story that Miss Maggie
Caime of Zarilla county, Tex, and her
friends have to tell concerning the con
duct of black bear will tax the ere
dulity of those who are not familiar
with the humanlike Intelligence often
displayed by bruin.
Miss Caime has always been very
fond of pets, ana for a long time she
was passionately attached to a fine
black bear that she had raised from a
small cub. She called the bear Niger,
and he would answer to his name and
come running the moment his mistress
commanded him.
Niger was very Intelligent and for
a long time he was as playful as kit
ten and regarded as perfectly harm
less. AS he grew older he began to
show considerable temper, and he of
ten got so angry that he looked dan
gerous. and his mistress would con-
slider it prudent to chain him to a tree
for awhile-at least until he got IN a
good humer. He never tried to harm

He GRowLED AND RAISED HIS PAW.

Miss Caime, and nothing pleased him
better than to follow her from place to
place. She alone fed him, and he APP
peared devotedly attached to her.
Finally he began to show that he dis
liked all the other members of the
family. In the absence of Miss Maggie
he would sulk and refuse to eat. Mig
gers ugly traits grew so pronounced
that Maggie's brothers talked about
killing him. One day he scratched one
of the boys and tried to break his
chain. The boy was angry and ran
and got a gun. Maggie barely prevent
ed him from ending Nigger's career.
Bruin saw it all, and with his head
turned to one side he listened to the
threats made against him. II believe

his teeth. She became convinced that
he would spring upon her if she did
not keep quiet
Finally she concluded to walk slowly
along the path, thinking that she might
induce the formerly tame beast to fol-
low her home.
After going short distance she
came to a pile of logs and brush,

pleased. He walked about the place.

down at Maggie's feet.
During the whole of the long night
the bear laid and watched the terror
stricken girl. The slightest movement
attracted his attention, and he would
raise his head and look at her. Miss
Gaines people thought she had re-
NAMED overnight with the neighbor
she had visited. and she was not
missed until after o'clock the next
morning.
When it became known that the girl
was missing. the whole neighborhood
was aroused, and soon the woods were
