MANS FAITHFUL FOUR FOOTED
FRIEND.

To the Editor Of The Republican. Sir:
As the humane and sensible side Of
the dog question has been given space
! in your valuable paper | wish to say
word through the same medium in
defense Of that intelligent brute friend
Of man, the dog, that has not the
necessary funds to CRAFTY the de-
mands of that inhuman ordinance
which demands his tax or his life Why
kill the poor dog because he cannot
pay his tax or because his master is
not able to pay it for him? Who does
he bother? Mad dogs are practically
unknown in the valley or territory, so
that could not be given as an excuse
for destroying him. The dogs in
Phoenix are all in good fix. which in
dicates that they have homes where
their wants are looked after, and that
they are not strays.
l notice in the Republican that some
one has complained to the police of
dogs that are kept housed up through
the day and turned loose at night 1t
is only reasonable to assume that this
is done not to escape the tax, but to
protect the pet on which they are I'M
able to pay the tax.
our attention has often been called to
numerous instances where dogs have
actually saved human life in various
ways, and in some instances where
they have persisted in flames after
warning the inmates of burning build
ings. As Mr.. Edwards remarks in this
mornings paper, nobody but Mexican
or Englishman would stOop to this
low traffic. As everybody in Phoenix
knows, a colored man first undertook
this unholy job, but after one day Of
its brutal requirements, gave it up in
disgust.
Then a greaser, he of that nation
ality who always get their greatest
pleasure out of the suffering of dumb
brutes, be it bull, horse or dog, or any
thing else. was put on the inhuman Job
and according to the papers is doing a
rushing business This whole system
is wrong and should be abolished at
once.
If we must have a dog tax and a dog
killer, let's have them after the man.
ner of Pasadena or Los Angeles. The
writer is also of the opinion that the
practice Of allowing a swarm or kids
to congregate at the slaughter is not
calculated to elevate their growing
manhood very much.
Respectfully,

or away or about to leave and there
is no Indication Of any bull campaign

very much selling in the local copper,
but buying/orders are hard to find and
declines of half a point between sales

MARKET REPORTS
BY PRIVATE WIRE

New York, June 21.-The report that
recent negotiations in regard to the
resignation of the Wabash issues have
not been conducted successfully caus-
ed a weak stock market today after
an early show of strength in which
all issues sold higher than Saturday.
The late decline was started by the
rumored serious illness Of Mr.. Harri-
man. The creation of a good sized
short interest should tend to help the
position of the market and form the
basis for higher prices when cOndi-
lions become more assuring.

For the Fiscal Year Which

DECLINE HERE S2OO,OOO,OOO

Washington, June 21.-It is now APP
parent that the exports from the
United States in the fiscal year which
ends with the present month will
fall materially below those of 1908
and 1907, and slightly below those of
1906. The total value of domestic
merchandise exported in 1908 was
1885 million dollars in 1907 1854 nil
limos, and in 1905 LIS millions, these
figures being in round terms. The
II months figures Of the Bureau Of
Statistics, just made public, indicate
that the domestic exports for the full
fiscal year 1909 will be nearly 200
millions below the average of 1903
and 1907, and perhaps 80 millions be-
low those of 1906.
The causes of this marked decline
in the export trade of the United
States are practically those which
have produced similar conditions in
other parts Of the world-a reduction
in the general demand for merchan-
disc and a material reduction in the
prices of certain of the more import
ant articles exported. That the
worlds markets are taking less pro-
duce in 1903 than in 1913 is quite
apparent from the figures published
from month to month by the Bureau
Of Statistics of the Department Of
Commerce and Labor. The total i'm
ports of our largest customer, the
United Kingdom, for example, were
in the 10 months ending with April,
1909. $123,0OO,OO0 below the cores
ponding months Of the preceding
year; and our own exports to that
country in the same period of time
fell 68 million dollars. Canada shows
for the II months ending with Feb
ruarv, 1909, a fall of 6S million dol
lars IN her imports: and our own
figures of exports to that country
show a fall of II millions in the 10
months ending with April, 1909. Ger
many shows a fall of 101 millions in
imports in the calendar year 1905
compared with this of 1907. India
shows a fall Of IL millions in her
imports in the II months ending with
February, 1909, compared with the
corresponding months of the preced-
ing year Japan shows for the 3
months ending with March, 1909, a
fail Of 16 millions in her imports;
Mexico, for the months ending with
February, 1903, a fail OF 81 millions;

year 1909 compared with 1908, about
80 millions will be found in food
stuffs over 80 millions in manufac-
lures. and about 20 millions in cotton;
and that the general cause Of this
reduction is lower prices for certain
articles, and a general reduction in
importing power by the principal
countries to which our merchandise
is distributed

Editor Eevening Leader,

Unsolicited, it gives me great
pleasure in saying a word regarding

Cure treatment now In our city.
under the special management of
DR.. j. J. lMcKanna at the Altamont
Hotel. For long number of years
| was so addicted at times to the
drink habit that / suffered the tor
lures Of hell on earth.
Through fortunate circumstances
| was admitted to this treatment at
richmond, Va, and 1t affords me
untold pleasure as well as the deep
est of gratitude to say that since my
discharge from the treatment some
three months or more ago, that |
have not In any sense OF the word

IL seems most wonderful indeed
that a treatment so apparently Sim

wonderful results but nevertheless it

ment the treatment to any one Slf-
fering from this trouble.
Very truly yours,

The letter printed above is strong
and needs no further words-as i,
always the case-those who take the
Mckanna treatment, their relations
and their friends are the strongest
supporters. If DR.. McKanna print
ed half the letter of praise received
from ex-patients he could print a
volume as large as the unabridged
dictionary.
Daily those who have taken the
treatment bring others 20 DR.. Nc

Ii Is seldom you find a man who
has taken the treatment that is
ashamed to admit it. They are so
full OF gratitude to be free from that
curse-a craving for drink-tha.
they want every one to Know it.
Once, it was considered imposN-
bic for a man to free himself from
the thirst habit for liquor without
shutting himself up in a sanitarium
for a month or longer.

the tariff.
South Carolinian Opposes.
"A voice from the south offsetting
the protective declarations Of Mr..
Daniel came promptly from Mr..
smith, OF South Carolina. who
is entering upon his first term In
the senate. His theme was the evil
OF destroying the forests and water
sheds of the Carolinas and Virgin
la by stripping the bark from the
chestnut tree for the purpose of
manufacturing quebracho extract
Recent disastrous floods in his state.
he said, had resulted from stripping
the uplands and mountains of their
forests.
Incidentally, Mr.. Smith discussed
what he declared were the Unequal
tiles of the protective tariff system.
The preservation OF the forests. he
contended, was more important than
the encouragement of an industry
in products for which substitutes
could be obtained cheaply from
abroad. Destroy the forests, he ar
gued, and the great cotton crop Of
the south would be endangered.
Simmons Aids Daniel
Following the senator from South
Carolina, Mr.. Simmons, OF the Old
North state, retorted in support OF
the principles favored by Mr.. Dan
lei. He denied that the forests were
being denuded by either the tanbara
Industry or by the making Of wood
pulp.
When a tree Is ripe and ready
to be cut, what law or economy
prohibits 1t being cut?" asked Mr..
Simmons.
Wise cutting of timber, he declar-
ed, only assisted the growth of
younger timber. He had not, he
said. received single protest from
his state against the cutting of the
BARK Of the chestnut for the manu-
facture OF quebracho.
Offering an amendment to further
reduce the duty on quebracho to
one-quarter OF cent pound, Mr..
La Toilette declared that the tan
ming Industry was being driven to
Canada, where quebracho is admit
ted free OF duty. He declared that
the oak and hemlock have been
killed of 80 that now only the in
ferior chestnut is left which could
be used successfully to make an
extract to mix with the imported
quebracho.
Mr.. Gallinger declared that leath-
er was inferior to leather tanned
