Gollmar Brothers

AS the seasons come and go,
and the people depart from the
circus then, they may be heard
to give expression to their amaze
ment by saying, "Well, what
won't they do next?" The ques-
ton is invariably answered when
the Gollmar Brothers show comes
the next time.
The many features with the
Gollmar Brother Circus this
year are creating great attention
from the fact that there are so
many new and truly wonderful
acts offered. Among the coterie
are the Moro family, acrobats

Recently we overheard two
men discussing dogs and dog
owners, and this much of the
general summing up of the Grey
hound and its owner, impressed
us as being worth considering,
'the Greyhound has been bred
for special purpose-to run
If 1t also be desired that he kill
his prev after catching, he must
undergo special training to
that purpose. He is kept mainly
for sport, as flew followthe chase
for profit. The coyote and Jack
rabbit are the ligimate objects of
the chase in this country. The
winter months, the only time in
the year when the owner can en-
gage in the sport of the chase,
the remainder of the year the
hound is a loafer, and unless fed
well, becomes also a thief and
neighborhood nuisance. Few
men can afford to keep one Grey
hound and no man who has pro-
per consideration for his neigh,
bors interests can afford to keep
more than two. 1t is we'll to look
with suspicion upon the man
who undertakes to keep pack
just for the love of a dog or fond
ness for the chase unless fed to
a degree of safety almost impos-
sible to attain, he becomes
prowler, an egg hunter,a smoke
house visitor, a vexatious and
sometimes dangerous thief and
pilferer. AS the owner is seldom
able, and never willing to make
amends for the damage done by
his dogs, and few can be per.
suaded his dogs are guilty,
man becomes an undesirable
citizen at once who enters
neighborhood with a Grey hound
and the man who keeps a pack
should be required to confne
them to his own premises as he
does his hogs or cattle and not
permit them to run at large. AS
for the town hound which makes
its daily or nightly round of
visits or raids it should be
promptly sent to the happy hunt
ng grounds beyond the river
and the owner made to mourn in
silence, the loss of his dear de-
parted in hopeless desolation.
This gentleman's opinion may
De prejudiced, The extent to
which it impresses YOU will be
measured by the amount of your
Drovender appropriated for the
support of your neighbours dog
'r the persistency of his cussed-
less. Our idea is that the Grey
hound belongs on the frontier,
lie is not adapted for civilization
,ither in disposition or occupa-
ion. He is not companionable
Tor useful and is apt to become

not many months ago that the bonfires were lit to express praIse for those who mad saved us from joint statehood, especially Senator
 Foraker. Even those who favored
 joint statehood at that time are now glad that Arizona has the right to erect a state within her own boundaries. There are men at Washington, not in the legislative halls, who rendered invaluable service, to Delegate Ralph Cameron, and the man whom ne was about to present was the mead and front in shaping things so that Ralph Cameron was able to redeem the pledge he made to the people of Arizona. In pre- senting Postmaster-General Hitchcock, he was greeted with tremendous ap- plause that lasted several minutes.
 In responding MT. Hitchcock said: ''Friends, first or all, 1 appreciate this honor and am pleased to share in the honors with my friend Ralph Cameron, I always like to come to Prescott because here the visitor is so cordially welcomed. The last time I was here was when I was a member of Presidents Taft's party and I recall how heartily you greet ed him. I believe you would like to know that later on the train he expressed his great pleasure at the reception accorded him in Prescott. He was surprised at Arizona and wish more of our friends would come to Prescott for they would revise their opinion of Arizona. am glad that you are improving the ;p' breaches to your city, went over the territorial highway today and it will be a valuable asset to you As to President Taft's visit here. my recollection is still vivid to the promise he made to you tc

Postmaster General Hitchcock was the honored guest of the citizens of Prescott yesterday. He has been with Delegate Ralph Cameron and J. L. Hubbel for the past week on trip through Apache county, dur ing which the distinguished visitor from Washington witnessed the Ia nous snake dances of the Moqui In- dians on their reservation. MT. Hitchcock is in Arizona purely for recreation and his visit mas no poli- tical significance. Long before Ralph Cameron represented Arizona in Washington, Frank Hitchcock visit ed him and enjoyed hunting trips in his company. The Postmaster Gen eral is an athlete and prefers Ari- zona to any other place for his vacations, for he likes the freedom of the West and enjoys her people and the grandeur of her scenery.

 The hospitable feature being con- cluded, all repaired to the library of the club where a large aggrega- tion of citizens had assembled in response to an invitation to be present at a non-partisan reception, given to Postmaster General Hitchcock. All present were in- troduced to the member of the presi' dents cabinet and he was greeted most cordially as a characteristic of Prescott's hospitality.

 DENVER, Aug. 29. - Roosevelt sharply criticized the acts of the Supreme Court before the legisla- ture today. He cited two decisions, which he declared contrary to the principles of democracy, and which he said emphatically if indicated as the permanent attitude of the court, the entire American system of popu- lar government would be upset.
 His speech was one of five in Denver. He was everywhere greet ed by cheering multitudes.
 The colonel faced the legislature democratic in both branches with one woman member.
 An unqualified endorsement was given Roosevelt by Government Shaf- roth and Mayor Spear, both demo- crats, at the auditorium. The mayor said "The great ma ority of republicans in the west, and many democrats will not be silent until they see you the head of this great nation. You are loved because you cannot be controlled. Your honesty of purpose appeals to every heart. Your courage made your opponents wonder what to do next. You have work to do and wrongs to right. May your life be spared to accomplish the work the American people believe you are destined to perform"
