effort was made today to demonstrate
the strength of the bear position in
the stock market speculative issues.
especially Steel, which was subjected
to heavy pressure and prices declined
rapidly during the early part OF the
day The movement was accelerated
by the circulation of various disquiet-
ing reports. but the downward move
ment was checked almost before the
days trading was fairly under way
with good fractional gains Copper
stocks, the most prominent. about
duplicated yesterdays rise of u point
or more. The buying movement in
these stocks was based Ostensibly on
the movement Of the copper market.
but il is regarded as probable that
the movement was largely speculative.
One of the most noteworthy events of
the day was the suspension Of divi-
dends on Denver Rio Grande pre-
ferred. which have been on a five
per cent basis since 1901 The action
of the directors occasioned no sur

no probability that the Bristow

Will never accept. inasmuch as they

been unable to insert the Bristow

MIR. Taft's Coming Visit.

The semi-official announcement is
made that Mr.. Taft Will this fall
again visit the west The proposed
"trip is To he frankly a dignified cleo
tioneering tour The president pro-
poses To speak 10 as many people as
possible between the Atlantic and Pa
cific coasts. tell them what NJ has
done and tried 10 do. and then leave
il TO them To decide whether he shall
be renominated and reelected. While
he viii make no formal announce
ment of his candidacy. it VIII be well
understood by everybody that the
tour - for the purpose of presenting
his case to his countrymen.
Some emphasis is laid upon the
statement that he viii make several
speeches in Nebraska and Oregon. In
these two states. under the provisions
of unique primary laws. the people
viii choose delegates TO the national
conventions without the machinery
Of local conventions. 1t will be in
teresting TO observe developments in
Oregon. for in that state insurgency
under the lead of Senator Bourne is
supposed to be rampant Evidently
Mr. Taft proposes to carry the war
into Africa, so far as Bourne is con-
cerned.
When he swings through Arizona
the president Will have no occasion
to make apologies. If statehood hap
pen TO be in allegiance still, il will be
no fault of his. on his former visit
he told the people here how to get
statehood speedily. They did not
choose to follow his advice, and
year has been lost already. But 50
earnestly is Mr. Taft for the admis-
sion of this territory that he is will
ing TO waive some of the serious
objections he has TO the constitution
which was framed contrary To his
advice-he now asks for but one
thing: protection Of the judiciary
from the recall. He may even forego
this objection. if congress passes up
10 him the house resolution. but in
any event no apologies will be due
from him

Statistics of Agriculture in Arizona

The preliminary statement Of gen.
eral farm data for Arizona. issued by
the director Of the census on the I'd
of this month-mention Of which was
made in this paper some days ago
furnishes some interesting details of
the progress Of the farming industry
in this territory during the ten-year
period from 1900 to 1910.
The statement explains that al
though marked increase in the
number and value Of farms is re
ported for the territory. there is a net
decrease of farm area of nearly 100
900 acres, confined principally to two
counties-Navajo and COconino-
where some 100000 acres belong to
large land company. The transfer
TO the forest reserve Of large areas
Of land, previously owned bt the
railroad, that was rented for gra zing
purposes in 1900, account for another
large area. These lands were used
for the same purpose in 1910, but
not under circumstances that permit
their classification as farm lands Elk
elusive Of the two counties reporting
decrease, the acreage Of farm land
in Arizona increased a. per cent.
These lands, not enumerated i'm 1910,
were all of small value per acre. and
their omission makes the average
value Of land per acre show up
slightly larger than was actually the
case.
OF the whole number. SOS. Of
farms reported in 1910 there were
1913. or "A per cent, operated by
white farmers. and 2,1O5, or &c per
cent, by negro and other non white
farmers as compared with a total Of
$500 in 1900. of which 1905. or So
per cent, were conducted by white
farmers, and 1903, or 81 per cent, by
negro and other non-whites. The in
crease in the number of farms Of
white farmers during the decade
amounted to 1867, and in the num-
Der of farms of negro and other non
white farmers to 302.
The total number OF farms oper-
ated in 1910 by owners. part owners,
and owners and tenants, comprising
the "an owners" class, was 1860, as
