Sunday at the Fair Grounds.

There was an entertaining
game of baseball at the fair
grounds last Sunday, witnessed
by quite large attendance of
fans who lacked nothing in
enthusiasm. For the second time
the School of Mines team was
defeated by the Junior Blues, but
the defeated team showed con-
siderable improvement and they
hope that with more practice to
be able to hold their own against
the Blues. The game was not a

and Maine, have therefore to rely for
a market, mainly on shipments to
eastern points where a high quality is
demanded rather than a cheap price.
The local freight rate from northern
Arizona to this valley, coupled with
higher Arizona mill prices, has made
it impossible for the Phoenix dealers
to handle any considerable quality of
Arizona lumber except small boards.
Harrison Conrad representing the
Dennis Lumber company of Maine was
is the city Thursday looking after his
cOmpany's interests and primarily on
the business of trying to see if some
thing could not be done to increase the
business of his concern in these parts.
He satisfied himself as to the facts
above stated and remarked to the To-
cak, dealers that it was evident the
Arizona mills would have to make bet
ter prices in some way though it was
hardly apparent how they could do so
without selling at loss.
Quite coincidentally, Paul p. Hast
ings. general freight and passenger
agent of the S. F. P. e. p. railroad,
was in Phoenix Saturday on similar
business. He appreciated that If the
valley towns could use more Arizona
lumber it meah more business for

the S. F. p. & p, beside stimulating
home industry and keeping Arizona
money circulating in Arizona. Seek
ing for information, in the hope of de-
vising some plan to better conditions,
Mr.. Hasting called upon Mont Ander-
son Of the Buckeye Lumber Co, and
spent some time with him. during
which he found competitive conditions
between the Arizona and the coast
mills lust as they have been outlined
above. Later in the day Mr.. Hastings
visited several other local yards and
still more fully verified his findings.
Mr.. Hastings found that the price
of California lumber f. o. b. Phoenix
was almost as cheap as the Arizona
lumber f. o. b. at the mills and the
situation looked rather discouraging,
unless he could induce the Arizona
mills to offer some relief also, for if
he hauled the lumber for nothing the
coast could still compete at present
prices.
Mr.. Anderson, in conversation last
evening, informed The Republican that
he had on Thursday evening got
Messrs. Hastings and Conrard togeth-
er for general talk over the situation.
Incidentally it was brought out that
the Arizona mills require a heavy ton
mage of hay for their stock. 1t was
suggested that if the mills could slim
ulate q greater tonnage of traffic by
buying their hay here, it would be an
inducoment to the railroad to lower
lumber freights and stimulate the
Of AYiz fhn
valley.
The gentlemen seemed to agree that
if these plans can be worked out they
will be for the advantage of all con-
cerned and left Mr. Anderson with the
impression that each would do his
part to that end. Mr.. Anderson as
sured them that so far as he was able
he would guarantee that whatever re-
duction they made in the cost of Ari-
IONA lumber, f. o. b. Phoenix, the peo-
pie would get the benefit of and he
would take pleasure in trying to push
the sale of it,
An effort was made to follow the
trail of the lumber and freight men a
little further. The O'Malley Brothers
were called upon and asked concern
ing the facts outlined above. They
said that both gentlemen had visited
them on Thursday and talked over
the situation. The company did not
recall that they had made any prom
ises at that time as they were seeking
information chiefly, but naturally the
O'Malleys will be as pleased as any
body else if these better conditions
can be brought about.
z =. Corpstein of the Valley Lumber
company spoke in a similar way He
said he told Mr.. Conrard that he
would have to make better prices to
get the business, all of which the lat
ter was free to admit and while Mr.
Hastings promised nothing at that
time it was hoped these negotiations
would prove fruitful

PAPA DID NOT KNOW

When the Engagement Was An

Out.

Under the headlines Secret We'd

Friends" the following story concern
ing the announcement of the marriage
of Miss Alice Harvey and S. ID. Dun
lop at Crown Point Indiana on May
%, appeared in the Tuesday issue of
the Chicago Tribune received here
yesterday. Mr.. and Mrs. Dunlop it
win be remembered arrived in Phoenix
about week ago and have been stop
ping at the Hotel Adams, therefore
the last paragraph in the article is
erroneous. The article says:

age of Miss Alice Marguerite Harvey

William Riley Harvey. Of Oak Park,
mailed the cards after having told a
few days before of his daughters en-
gagement, she at that time being a
bride, but he did not know it,
1T was all the fault of the engage
ment announcement that their secret
became known. Mr.. Dunlop left last
month for ranch near Phoenix,
Ariz. He and his bride were friends
in their school days. Before he left

ANOTHER PHASE OF

Negotiations For Better Trade Rela-

Northern Arizona Mills.

Here is a bit of news that will be of
interest to the lumber dealers of this
valley and incidentally to almost
everybody else. Though the expected
is not an assured fact the influences
at work in that direction are coopera-
tive and it is believed will result in
conditions that will make it possible
for this valley TO use a much larger
quantity of northern Arizona lumber.

for valley products, particularly hay.
The facts are that the present mill
prices on lumber at coast points are
much below mill prices on similar
lumber in northern Arizona, where
mill costs are greater. though in some
lines of stock the Arizona lumber pro-
duct is of much better quality. The

men are doing, and as warning for
the future when men may refuse to
go into politics because of the villifi-
cation, abuse, deliberate misrepresen-
tation, and criminal libel committed
through newspapers posing as moral
agents"
Mr.. Spreckels' remarks might fit
the Republican organization in this
Territory If 1t were not fact that
the business men of the city, business
leaders and busy men, were not only
members of the campaign committee
now, but have been, ever since annex
alton, taking an active part in the
administration of the City and the
Territory.
These business men have done and
are doing. in and through the organ
ization, what the business men of the
mainland cities should have done
years ago. and, failing in 1t, now find
they must go over great deal of
ground left in a sad state of neglect.
Sprcckels has not compared Homo
lulu with the cities overwhelmed with
graft and crime. The only persons
doing so are the men who have COM
mitted crimes against decency and be-
smirched the good name of their own
city for no other purpose than to
serve their selfish political desire to
either rule or ruin.
The trouble with the "best-man"
propaganda in Honolulu is that they
wait until the primaries are held and
the conventions have named the
candidates, and then II results are not
to their liking, get out and make a

change of plans after reaching Wash
ington. At the offices this morning,
| the officials were even unwilling to
hazard guess as to the number of
men that will be required to handle
the work.
| Dillingham; Is now arranging for
the purchase Of the tools and machi-
merry needed in the work. and 1t Is
considered likely that actual dredg-
ing will be commenced Immediately
after. the new year begins.
Five Dredges at Least
In all probability, at least five big
dredges will be used in carrying on
the work. The exact number Will, of
course, depend upon the capacity Of
each, but certain requirements of the
Government engineers have to be
complied with in connection with the
work.
The material mentioned in Items
4 and 8 Is for the use of the Army in
filling the marsh land around Pearl
Harbor to make IL suitable for forth
fication sites. without the material
the Army engineers would encounter
serious difficulties in their work, so
1t is considered practically n foregone
conclusion that contractors will be
required to conserve the dredged ma
terial in accordance. with the specifi-
cations.
The contract price for the actual
dredging, $3,56O,OOO, will therefore
be increased to $4,1O9,0O0, the extra
$4,000 being for the conserving
and delivery of 1850, 900 cubic yards
of dredged material at 16 cents per
cubic yard.
George Denison, who accompanied
Dillingham; to Washington, inspected
the dredging work now under way
for the Florida East Coast Railway
Company, along the Key West line
The conditions there are said to be
similar to those existing here, and
the difficulties which have been en-
countered here have been much the
same as those that will have to be
overcome in the dredging of Pearl
Harbor.
