Secretary Meyers plan for W new
mammoth battleships, as well as his
recommendations for building smaller
ships, has been approved by theSCom-
mittee on Naval Affairs Of the House
Of Representatives. The size Of the
ships is not fixed in the report of the
committee. but Secretary Meyer will
authorize the building of tw~enty-sev-
en-thousand-ton vessels, if Congress
adopts his plan, instead of the TWEEN
INSTRUMENTATION size Of h Wyo-
ming type. How far the theory OF the
proper size for battleships has ad-
vanced since the war with Spain may
be realized when it is recalled that
at that time twelve-thousand-ton ships
were the largest America had. Admir-
al Mahan, the greatest living writer on
naval affairs, said, in 1898, that this
was the ideal size, and that more
would be lost than gained by an in
crease in ttnnag5. Yet the ships have
continued to increase in size. Unless
there is a change in the temper OF the
world-and there is no immediate
prospect of that-the only limit upo
the size of warships is mechanical.
There is a demand for the biggest and
most powerful vessels which can be
constructed with safety out OF the
materials now employed, and propelled
by the power now available. The
United States is a Pacific as well as an
Atlantic power, and it's enormous coast
line on the two great oceans, together
with its possessions beyond the seas,
demand that it prepare for an AIDE
Quate defense of them.

The terms of agreement which have
ayerted a tariff war between the Unit
ed States and Canada were made pub
lie by the State Department simulta-
neously with the submission of the
United States secures Canada's inter-
mediate rates on thirteen groups Of
commodities, including ~ninety-seven
articles, while Canada secures applica.
ton of entire minimum tariff of Unit
ed States. Canada, in return for the
application of the entire minimum tar
if of the United States, has granted
Its intermediate rates on thirteen
groups of commodities contained in
the commercial treaty giving preferen-
tial rates to France, which rates sub
s%equently have been extended to twelve
other countries with which England
has most-favored nation treaties. 1t
is not contended in Washington that
the United States has driven a sharp
bargain with our neighbor across the
border. Primarily, however, the idea
was to avert a disastrous tariff war,
and our officials claim to have done
tho best they could with a tariff act,
rigid beyond qualification in it's max
imum and minimum feature. We had
to give Canada our whole minimum in
return for such concessions as Can
ada was willing to grant. And SO,
therefore, Canada gave. finally, less
than half of what we originally de.
handed.

A Word from Friends Who Have
Been Here.
Those afflicted with any malady very
properly desire evidence as to what they
may expect when they are in search OF
a cure, and especially so if they have al
ready expended money for treatment.
Therefore we herewith append a very few
brief extracts from letters received from
those who know from experience what
DR.. Nichols can do.

An increase of 100000 in the pop
ulation of the United States in ter
years and a decrease of about 5000,
900 in the number Of available food
animals is the estimate made by the
buerau Of statistics from reports on
these two subjects, made respectively
by the census bureau and the depart
ment of agriculture. Another lesson
in the law of supply and demand, de
duced by the bureau of statistics, is
that the supply of food animals has
gone down 8 per cent while the value
has increased % per cent. In the
meantime, the price Of grains neces-
sary for food for these animals has
increased from Sc to rs per cent. The
value of cattle, sheep and hogs in this
country in 1901 was estimated at 81,
943, 900, 900; in 1910, at $2,36s, 0oo. 900
This is an increase of % per cent. Cat
tie are the one class Of food animals
which has come anywhere near keep
ing pace with the growth in popula-
ton. Cattle have increased in nun.
Der 16 per cent. There were about
2.3 animals to each person in the
country in 1901. In 1910 there are
about 10.

one can establish his ownership of any range horse or other range an imal, and without this no convic- ton for the theft of it can be made.
 It is said, and may be true, that the persons engaged in horse-steal- ing study these brands and take only such animals as are not brand ed with a recorded brand, or if a recorded brand be upon 1t, the brand tax has not been paid up. Be this as 1t may, it is a condition at this time, whether the law be a good law or not, that so long as 1t IS in force, as 1t now is, no suc- cessiul prosecution for stealing of range animals can be maintained until the owners of the same com ply with the stock laws of the ter ritory, It is therefore entirely useless to ask the sheriff to appre- hend or prosecute such thieves, if such there be, until such laws have been complied with by the owners of such range animals.
 In view of the conditions sur rounding these matters, deem 1t appropriate and partly my duty to suggest the foregoing to the pub. lie. Respectfully,
 X. N. STEEvEs,

To this end he has dur ing the last two months, upon such requests, with scarcely any profit to himself, made diligent efforts to comply with the peoples wishes and for that purpose has travelled over much territory, even to going so far as Calexico, Imperial Val ley, California. On his return he reported having seen many horses, supposedly stolen, some from this section of Arizona, others from Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and else where. When he found these horses none of them were so marked or branded that any con viction for the larceny of the same could by any possibility be had, simply because the ownership thereof could not be proven on ac- count of the owner not having a proper and legally paid up brand thereon.
 The livestock laws of Arizona pro ride that no livestock shall be permitted to roam and feed upon the range unless it be branded and marked; that such brand and mark shall be recorded in the office of the secretary of the livestock san itary board; and that, as a condi- ton to the right to the continued use of any brand beyond the first day of July, 1905, the owner thereof shall before the first day of July of each year file with said board a written statement, under oath, of his intention to continue the use of such brand, with the number of animals assessed to him for the then current year, and also pay each year brand tax of one dollar for such brand, and one cent per head for all animals so assessed, in excess of one hundred.
 Our courts have in all cases which have arisen wherein this law was brought into question, upheld this law,as constitutional and val id, and held that in order to prove ownership of any range animal by its brand or mark, such brand or mark must have been so recorded and such brand tax have been paid. Therefore, upon any prose- cution for the larceny of any range animal, (i. e., any animal which is customarily permitted to roam upon the open and unenclosed tracts of lands in this territory, whether of the public domain or in private ownership, and upon which by custom, license or otherwise livestock is permitted to roam and feed, and not in the immediate actual possession or control of the owner or any person for him), un- less proof shall be made of full compliance with this law, such prosecution has always in the past failed, and must in the future also fail.
 There is, however, d further pro- vision of the law that ownership of animals may be established by the testimony of any person or persons who may know the animal and it's owner independent of any mark or brand. Under this, Judge Doe in q recent case tried before him held that such identification must be

 In order to be of more assist ancc to the Stockmen of the north, the editor asked the secretary of the sanitary board for a duplicate record of shipments and other rec ords of his office which he furnishes other papers in the territory, and this genial gentleman, who draws a salary probably for his handsome appearance and general desire to please himself, kindly advised us as follows;
 Phoenix, Ariz., Aug. I, 1908. MT. F. $. Breen, Flagstaff, Ariz.
 Dear Sir: Replying to your fa- vor of the 3oth ult. will say that the reports of cattle shipped and slaughtered are published in the Arizona Range News free Of charge. They also publish a list of un- claimed strays free of charge, and a list of our inspectors in the same manner. The only thing that they charge us for is the list of new brands applied for. The latter is also published in the Southwestern Stockman. l do not believe there would be any advantage to the board in furnishing the slaughter and shipping reports to a second paper, as the stockmen all over the territory have now learned that it appears in the Arizona Range News, and in no other paper, and large number of them take that paper for that reason. As a mat ter of fact the Range News is not valuable for any other purpose. We have all the work to do in this office that we can comfortably han dle, and am not looking for a chance to furnish another newspa- per with this same material.
 Yours truly,
 ]. D. CARTER,
 Sec'y Livestock Sanitary Board.
 The stockmcn in the north are extremely proud of the secretary. They know they are welcome to anything in the way of information they can get away from him with a pick-ax. Anyone can readily see from the kindly tone of his letter that the door mat at his office has Welcome" embroidered on it in silk that shows on both sides.
 or course a person who did not know better might take it for granted that the secretary owned the two papers mentioned, and compliment him on his financial sagacity, but this is a doubtful conclusion. If they concluded that he merely owned the territory, there might be more grounds upon which to base their supposition.
 Very seldom is any complaint heard, except when stockmen refer to the subject, which is very con servativc way of putting it.

Monday with the three new specta-
Giles in continuance of the prosperity
that manifested itself at the success

CARA" is thought to be the most
poetic of all the advertisements ever
plannedat the big playhouse and
the fact that it is danced by cory
phees In Indian costume has justi-
fed It's being called a genuinely Am
erican ballet. The circus part of the
program has also been accorded
much praise. The acrobats perform
many stunts that are really novel
ties; Louise Stickney in her white
gown with her white horse and
white dog is a graceful equestrian
feature and the performing lions,
elephants and bears provide the an
tmals which are always looked for
at the Hippodrome and seem to at
tract the older as much as the young
er patrons. The Yacht Race, show

been led to believe that she is a
widow, but he is not SUI of it, and
when next they meet, circumstances
lead him to the absolute conviction
that she is the wife of his best
friend-his old pal and college
chum. Georgiana realizes his mis-
take in a flash and makes capital of
It. Here is her golden opportunity.
He must steal her from his best
friend, force her to get a divorce. If
he does this. she will have proven
him bad enough to answer all re-
quirements. She leads him on with
her woman's wiles to the point of
desperation. And Just when he has
reached the point when either he
must betray his best friend or run
away, he comes suddenly to what he
calls his senses. He has led such a
decent life that he doesn't know a
good woman from a bad one, and it's
time he educated himself-high
time that he sowed his wild oats.
He begins his education headlong
with a musical hall artistic and
makes rapid strides. Georgiana at
once stops flirting and begins in
earnest to win him. Explanations
follow and all ends happily.
