City Marshal Attacked
By Women Thursday

Marchal c. M. Bledsoe, ever
vigilant i'll his duty, stepped iuto
a small sized riot Thursday
morning. Since the recent order
regarding the muzzling of dogs
went into effect the marshal has
been taking great care that all
unmuzzled dogs are attended to
by being promptly shot. Thurs
day morning Bledsoe sighted a
poodle dog without the necessary
wire trappings. He proceeded to
act on the order and the canine
died an unnatural death. The
lady owning the dog didn't ap-
prove of his methods and to
show him that she was displeas-
ed tried to break an umbrella
over the sombrerro of Mr.. Bled-
soc, much to his discomfort.

Heavy Rains in
Winslow This Week

Winslow was visited by the
worst rain storms experienced
here last Wednesday evening
and many of the theatre goers
suffered from a severe drenching
nobody being prepared for such
downpour. The local weather
bureau records show that 112
inches rain fell during the night
but It really came down in about
two hours. On Thurcday after
noon the clouds again let loose
and 70 an inch OF rain was drop
ped in Winslow within 45 min
utes. The streets and alleys, a.
a result OF this rain, are in a
more or less sloppy condition,
the sewer line in many places
making deep holes the dirt hav
ing settled. A few cases of wag-
ons being nired was noticed and
several pedestrians barely escap
ed bad ducking in their effort
to get home, stumbling through
the alley crossings.

Many people have resolved not to patronze business

Furthermore there is chance to quote prices and

rational way There is no logic in the bill board 1t
does absolutely nothing to convince the reader that
you have bargains. Street advertising is not read
by one-tenth of the population of any city i'll which it
is used. Figure it out for yourself. One half of the
people do not ride in the cars more than once week
The other one half haven't time to read tue advertising

1910 Territorial Fair to be held
at Phoenix November 7th to
10Th has been directed by
four commissioners looking to
the Improvement of the live
stock and industrial department
exhibits the speed department
has by no means been neglected,

MARKET, STOCK
and RANGES

Aug. 8, 1910. An advance of 40
to Is cents was made on all kinds
of cattle last week, lifting the
market back up to its position
before the big break two weeks
ago. Calves are an exception, as
they lost 25 to so cents last
week, steady to-day, and best
veals bring 800. Good general
rains cut down the supply nearly
one third from the previous week,
and while the demand from kill
ers was not exceptional, 1T was
generous, and country buyers
hocked in by the hundreds, ex-
pecting a big run from the dry
sections, and had to compete
with killers for a good many OF
the cattle they bought. There
was a good Friday run here, and
killers pulled a long face and
succeeded in enforcing a decline
of 10 to Is cents on some grades,
declaring the big advance of the
week was fictitious, and would
disappear this week with the
arrival of a liberal run. This pre-
diction had no foundation in fact,
for the fairly good run of Is, ZOO
cattle here today is selling steady
to ten higher. The run at all the
markets is normal to day, and
the way it is being handled looks
good to those who have cattle
yet to market. Country buyers
are again a big source ofstrength
to the general market, as more
good rains yesterday and to-day
insure an immense amount OF
forage this fall and winter. Gov
ernment report on the corn crop
will be out this afternoon, and is
expected to show a condition 3
or 4 points below July 1st, but
still indicating total yield OF
three billion bushels, and recent
rains will have the effect of halt
ing the declining average condi-
ton. Top steers sold at $50
to-day, highest in month, best
grassers $7.25, fair to good
grass natives and westerns $4. rs
to $6.25, grass COWS up to $4.25,
bull So 90 to $500, stock steers
$500 to $500, feeders $500 to
$5.75.
Hogs lost 13 cents net last
week, but the week closed strong,
and the market is up 10 to 20
cents to day. The low figure last
week was only a shade higher
than this time last year, and the
lowest since last October. Run is
5000 here to-day, light hogs at
$3.50 to 1856, medium weights
$S.15 o$S so. heavy hogs $500
to 1926. A feature lately is the
appreciation in values of heavy
hogs, as compared with the
others, in anticipation ofa heavy
call for lard in the near future.
Supply of sheep and lambs has
been small, and the market made
small gains last week. The run is
5000 head to-day, considerably
above recent runs, and one halt
the supply to-day is from Utah
and the Northwest. The market
is a shade higher to-day,
although lambs closed a shade
weaker, top lambs to-day $500,
highest price in more than a
week, bulk of lambs $3.50 to
$685., feeding lambs around
5000, fat wethers $500 to
$3.50, top ewes to-day $4.15
Country demand is large, since
plenty of feed is assured, feeding
wethers around $500, and
breeding ewes $3.65 to $4. 25.

IMPORTANT TO
WOOL GROWERS

Some years ago, the under
signed, believing it was not a
good business principle to con-
sign wool to a wool house, who
bought and sold for speculation
other woods from the same sec
ton or of the same class, set
about to find reliable broker
through whom our wools might
be safely handled and sold to the
manufacturer at a minimum ex,
penSe to the wool grower. After
careful investigation including
several days spent in Boston,
such arrangements were made
with Salter Bros. & Co., Wool
Brokers, OF Boston. am assured
they do purely brokerage bust
ness and do not directly or indi-
rectly buy or sell Oh their own
account. We have consigned to
them for a number Of years and
saved thousands of dollars by so
doing. This year, for example,
they sold the Gosney & Odell
clip so as to net us, practically,
two cents per 10. more than the
highest bid at shearing corrals
by the buyers.
AS a matter of justice to Salter
Bros. & Co. and our duty to the
wool growers of the Territory,
and with no ill-will toward any
wool merchant, we have repeat
edly recommended other wool
growers to consign to Salter
Bros. & Co. Their business in
Arizona has constantly grown
until the present year when they
received on consignment a very
large portion of the clip of the
Territory.
We noticed recently, a state.
ment quoted from an Albuquer-
que paper, and generally circula-
ted among wool growers of the
two Territories, to the effect
that Mr.. VandarwOrt, a well
kno WIN wool buyer, until recently
representing the hustling Firm
of Brown & Adams, had bought
in Albuquerque from Mr.. Pollock,
a large clip for Salter Bros. &
Co.. thus leaving the impression
that Salter Bros. & Co. were
wool merchants or spectators,
as we'll as brokers, working
wholly in the interests of their
customers. We took this matter
up with Mr.. Pollock and with
Mr.. Salter and are now able to
reassure the wool growers that
this statement was not correct.
The clip in question was bought
by Mr.. Vandarwort and paid
for by Gross-Kelly & Co. and
Salter Bros. & Co. have nothing
to do with the wool in question,
except perhaps to sell it on con.
signment, for the purchasers.
They have handled wool for
Gross Kelly & Co. in the same
way as they are selling for Ariz-
ona wool growers for years, and
we are told Mr.. Vandarwort
arranged with them to have
them sell for him any wool he
might purchase on his own
account. When we remember
that as a buyer Mr.. Vandarwort
was one of the strongest open
ents of Salter Bros. & Co., his
practical endorsement of them
in this way is gratifying recon-
mendation of their ability and
integrity.
We make this statement be-
cause we feel largely responsible
for the business Salter Bros. &
Co. have received from Arizona,
and more because we believe the
wool growers will profit by con-
tinueing their business with this
/ Firm.
We have heard Of reports or
rumors before to the effect that

Postoffice Moves
Into New Building

The new postoffice is now in
active operation having been
moved last Saturday and Sun
day. Miss Mahoney has returned
from her visit to Los Angeles
and is again in active command
OF the forces employed. c. F.
Dutton, Inspector of the Post
office Department was in town
this week making a check of the
accounts and Of the office gener-
ally. One of the building inspec-
tors of the department is expec-
ted from Washington within the
near future to pass on the new
structure and within short
time it is said that Postmaster
General Hitchcock will pay
Winslow a visit in which event
the citizens will undoubtedly
make preparations to receive the
distinguished visitor. Miss
Mahoney says that the coming
year will show increased receipts
and though Flagstaff ran ahead
of Winslow last year it is
thought that the coming year
will show a different result. The
Winslow postoffice, i'll the mat
ter of money orders, is second
only to Phoenix, showing the
great amount of work for the
Postmaster. Sufficient help has
been provided to keep things
moving in the new building and
hereafter efficient service will be
given.
