New York. June 6.--Although at first
to-day the stock market displayed
strength, and for a long period there
after was steady, even If dull at level
OF prices but little below the days high
est. It became demoraIized later on by a
renewal OF heavy selling. both for specu-
lative and investment account. due osten-
sibly TO a recurrence OF anxiety regard
ing the status of affairs in the country's
railway and other important interests
neeessitated by the recent action OF the
government in taking steps to prevent
an advance in railway rates.
II may be questioned whether this was.
in fact, the reason OF the break IN the
market this afternoon The decline that
occurred bore every outward indication
of being a speculative drive, even If II did
succeed in bringing about good deal OF
selling Of what Wall street calls long"
|stock, and OF carrying the prices Of many
active issues down to new low points for

Hope for Adjustment.

But they did not alter the conviction
of sober-minded people that there was
every ground for the presumption that at
the conference TO be held later IN the
afternoon between President Taft and tho
Representatives OF the Western railway
companies now under injunction, some
decision would be reached Of the existing
difficulties that have lately arisen be-
tween the government and the railway
organizations. r- .t
II can hardly be supposed that either
these organizations or the President wish
70 bring about great period of business

them is in such frame Of mind as not

ment of existing matters in controversy

Dear Farmer Boy: We have had
a great deal to say about the posi-

Now the time has come for action.
II you are boy on the farm and
under twenty years old I wish you

possibly can. because you will get
help that you would not otherwise

some prizes for boys who make the
biggest increase in yield as compared |
with the yield last year. There will
be special prize or two also for the |
boy who makes the biggest yield on
| five acres.
We are going to have all sorts of |
prizes and they are all going to be
worth working for. The Progressive
Farmer and Gazette is going to give
handsomely engraved 14-karat
solid-gold medal to the boy in each
State who makes the best crop, and
our advertisers are going to give
hundreds of dollars worth of prizes
in addition-and all these prizes to
go only to boys where some member
OF the family is a subscriber of The
Progressive Farmer and Gazette. If
you are not already a subscriber,
watch out for the special offer which
we will make next week. If some
member of your family subscribes
within the next thirty days you will
be in time. but you ought to begin
now SO as not to miss a single one
OF the articles which we shall print
on corn-raising.
AS / was saying, there are going to
be also lots of other prizes. We
are going to have lots of improved
farm Observation-Disclosures and cul-
tivators, disc harrows. weeders, etc.,
several tons of fertilizer, Gamers,
farm levels, wagons, besides calves
and pigs Of the very best blood and
breeding to be found in the South
ern States. Some OF these calves and
pigs will alone be worth from $50 to
SIS each. and the boy who gets
them will be nicely started towards
becoming q money-making stock
farmer.
just as quickly as we can we shall
work out all these conditions and
prizes and let you know about them
We are simply telling you this much
in advance SO that you may get
ready-and get ready at once. Your
father will let you have an acre of
land, and II he does not think that
he ought to furnish the fertilizer and
manure. tell him that you will pay
for 1t out of your corn crop. Where
you cannot get the land rent-free,
offer to pay the rent also out OF the
crop. Do not let anything balk you.
Get In this contest and go in to beat
the other fellow. Do not wait until
1t is too late and then wish that you
had won some $50 or SIS prize
which the other fellow will get east
ly besides making pile of money
for himself out of the crop itself.
You don't have to write US In or
der to enter the contest, but natural
ly we should like to know that you
are interested and we may be able
to send you some literature that will
be helpful. Suppose. therefore. that
you sign the following blank and

anything; 1t simply let's us know

can work together to better advan-
tage.

Of land and let's start with it right

RECALL IS PLACED
 IN ARIZONA LAM

Phoenix, Ariz., December 7.-The "con- servatives'' made a supreme effort to eliminate the recall from the Arizona constitution today but failed. The early session was marked by an attack on United States Senator Bailey. Delegate Webb of Graham county had received a
 telegram from Senator Bailey saying in
 reply to a question concerning the in-
 itiative and referendum and recall that
 1t would be inadvisable to write anything "debatable'' into the constitution as it might provoke the opposition of the
 President and invite the disapproval of Congress"
 Delegate Parsons of Cochise county then asserted that if the country had been
 raked there could not have been found
 more appropriate person from whom to obtain the desired answer. Senator Bailey, he declared, was not in reality a democrat.
 The recall was adopted on a vote of 3S to g, one democrat voting against 1t.
