Stock Market

April 11th 1910. Cattle receipts here last week were 24,OOO head the smallest total for any week since Christmas, and other mar kets also had extremely slim supplies, with the natural result that prices made a good gain, 20 to 80 cents. In some cases the close ot the week looked as high as any time, but the aver age was still 10 to 25 cents be low the best time, two weeks ago. The gain last week was purely due to the small run, and not to any wide expansion in the retail demand, and differed from the easy rise of the market dur ing March in that last week there was a fight on every cent of advance asked. This would indicate that there still remain some clouds on the horizon of the beef situation. To day the liberal run of ,OOO head arrived here, with good runs elsewhere and prices are 10 to 1 5 lower on all kinds of cattle except stockers and feeders today. Top steers sold around $500 here today, but strictly prime steers are quotable at $S. 80, and bulk of sales at $6.75 to $7.SO. Cows bring $4.25 to $6.5O, heifers $500 to $7.15. Calves broke $1.O0 to $1.5O per cwt. last week, and the best veals now sell at $7.75, fair to good veals around $7.OO. Bulls are still 50 to 75 below the high time, as they were an exception in the general rise last week, selling to- day at $3 75 to $5 S5. Ship ments of stockers and feeders to the country from here last week were less than 20Ocars, but were up to the limit of the supply, and closing prices were Is to 25 higher for the week. The mar ket on them is about steady to day, with feeder; selling at $500 to $6.75, and stockers $4.50 to $6.35 A string of Colorado feeders brought $6.5O today, horned. Forty loads of Cobra do beef cattle are here today, selling at $6.5O to $7.65.
 The hog market got the worst set back last week 1t has had any week this year, prices off g to 80 cents, net. There was some gain at the end of the week from the low time, but as a promise for better prices this week 1t was misleading, as the run of $500 head here today is selling 15 to 20 lower than close of last week Heavy hogs are selling today at $1O.25 to $1O.35 and medium weights up to $1O3O and tops on lights is $1O.15. A big break in provisions was the main weakness in hogs last week, and the downward trend of prices is due to falling off in consumption, with some slight increase in vol tune of the supply.
 Sheep and lambs came in for share of the tribute toward the cheaper cost of living last week, and prices dropped down as low as $1.OO per cwt. below the highest time this spring. Since Thursday there has been bulge in prices again, and the market IS up 10 to 20 cents higher to- day, with top wooded lambs to day at $9.75, and top clipped lambs at $S.S5. Best yearlings are worth $9.OO, wethers $S.25 ewes $7.6O. A band of Texas , clipped grass muttons sold to day at $7.OO, and goats arc worth $3. 50 to $4.75..

Much Ado About Nothing" :"

, , -N~ ~A News, of which Sidney Sapp is the editor and publisher, there appears an article occupying al most two columns of valuable space, under the caption, "The J. H. Breed Estate"
 The article referred to consists of a reprint of a news item that appeared in this paper, a lengthy quotation from the Pacific Re- porter and discussion of cer- tain case that came up for trial before the Probate Court of this county.
 We have taken the time to wade through this mess of errors ill grammar and diction, as well as themultitude of typographical errors, and really it is difficult to find the reason for the article. There are vague references as to where the writer procured his in- formation, flor the benefit of fair and unbiased public," whose only interest is that of "an hon. est man."
 In the first place, the writer of that article undoubtedly pro- cured his information from par ties that were interested in the case, and we believe that the facts stated in that article are true. It appears to our untu- tOred mind that the first duty of newspaper is to print the cold facts ot an event-in this in stance trial that came up for consideration in the Probate iCourt. The writer is in no way interested in the case, and does no care one whit for the conten- tions of either party in the case We also do not deem 1t the duty of newspaper to present the merits or the contentious of one of the parties to the case. The plans and arguments of both sides, so far as they are public property, may be printed. It does not appear that a news paper should condemn the ac- tions of a court, neither should the actions of a court be com plimented and lauded to the skies. The court is in a position to take care of itself, does not need any props from one side and knocking and hammering from the other, to assist in m ain tairing the official dignity.
 It seems to be i'll very bad taste for the attorney represent ing parties in a law suit to dis cuss in any way the contentious of his side through the columns of a newspaper. Now there is a possibility that this prejudice may arise from the fact that we have not the honor of being a member of the Arizona bar, but common sense teaches us that were we a member of that host of legal luminaries, we would commit to memory and use as a guiding star throughout our professional career, Section 20 of the Canons. of Ethics adopted by the American Bar Assoeia- tion, which reads as follows:
 Newspaper publications by a lawyer as to pending or antici- pated litigation may interfere with a fair trial in the courts and other prejudice the due ad min1stration of justice. Gener- ally they are to be condemned If the extreme circumstances of a particular case justify a state nent to the public, 1t is unpro- fessional to make it anonymous ly. An ex-parte reference to the facts should not go beyond quo- tation of records and papers on file III the court; but even in ex. treme cases it is better to avoid any ex-parte statement.

TEXAS HALTS FIRE
INSURANCE TRUST

Austin, Texas.-1n accordance with
a proclamation issued by Governor
I. II. Campbell, the legislature of
Texas convened in special session to-
day and was called to order at two
O'Clock this afternoon. The specific
purpose of the session as named in
the call is to repeal the first insur-
ance rating board law and to enact
such other legislation as will prevent
a combination or trust Of fire insur-
Texas. Since the call for the session
was Issued the State Fire Rating
Board has given a decision to the eff
feet that the fire insurance rates are
~unreasonably high and has ordered
sweeping reductions. The insurance
companies are preparing to make a
strong fight to prevent any general
reduction in the present rates, de-
spite the assertion of the business in
terests of the state that the rates are
excessive beyond all reason.

WOMAN HOLDING UP
RAILROAD EXTENSION
SUCCESSFULLY CONTESTED
CLAIM OF MITCHELL MAN
FROM WHOM ROAD
BOUGHT RIGHT OF
WAY.

Dallas, S. D.-Grading contractors
al: work on the Northwestern extern
sion west from Dallas were today
served with notice of a temporary in
junction, issued at the instance Of
Miss Eleanor Sallee, a homesteader,
two miles southeast of Colome. The
contractors are restrained from oper-
,ating on Miss Sales farm pending
adjudication of her claim for right of
way damages.
There arises in this case a peculiar
question in the matter of a homestead
er's title. The tract of land from
which the grading contractors are
temporarily tabooed was taken up
under a filing by Otto Schneider, of
Mitchell, who held No. 4 in the Tripp
county land opening. Several months
ago he made right of way settlement
with the railroad company, receiving
the sum of 1866, although his entry
was at that time under contest by
Miss Sallee. Subsequently the con-
%testant's rights were held to be good
and she was given a filing. She de-
MES the validity of the settlement
made with the original entryman and
is promoting a personal claim for
$1,000.
Both federal and state laws make
provision for the legal acquisition Of
railroad right Of way through home
stead lands, and the right of a home
steader to make settlement OF this
kind is unquestioned, unless adverse
rights are affected.

Changes in Law May
Be Needed Before
Their Establishment.
DEMANDED
Letters Are From Post
masters Wanting Infor-
nation of Them.

Washington, ID. C.-Little, if any,
progress is being made toward the
establishment of postal savings
banks. The three men on whom rests
the responsibility of working out a
system under the new law, the Sec
rotary of the treasury, the postmast-
er-general and the encouragement
have gone away from the capital for
the summer and there is small pros
pect of their getting together again
before the first of October.
In the meantime a committee of
under officials will devote the hot
weather months to a study of the
workings of postal savings banks sys-
tens abroad. This committee of
clerks is not authorized to prepare a
working plan under the new law. It's
authority is limited to the gathering
of a lot of information for the trus-
tees.
May he Many Months.
The general impression about the
three departments that will have
something to say about the establish
ment of the new system is that it will
be six or seven months before the
first postal savings bank is opened.
A cursory examination of the enab-
ling act has almost convinced the
three cabinet officers who constitute
the board of trustees that there are
many lame places in the law which
will have to be amended by congress-.
Under the circumstances there need
be no surprise if the establishment of
receiving points is delayed until after
the legislative body has had an oppor-
tunity to make changes in the law.
That there is no widespread de-
mand for the new system is indi-
Gated by the falling off in the num-
Der of inquiries that are coming to
the p%ostofice department.
The correspondence of the depart
ment is largely with postmasters who
been sending in inquiries as to
what will be expected of them in
case their office are designated as re-
ceiving points. Broadly speaking the
public is not clamoring at all for the
opening of the new banks.
Bankers, taking time by the fore
lock, are still applying to the treas
ury department to be made deposit
tories under the new law.
