Today's market is the best of the week, which is saying a good deal, for local prices have been on a parity with Chicago and St. Louis most of the time this week, and quarter above Cleveland and Buffalo, as we'll as competing Mis-. souri River markets.
 Sheep and lambs here this week 43,S00, last week 4S.S00, same week last year 54,100. Values have ap- preciated 15 to 9 cents since Tues day, best lambs yesterday and today at $5 75 each day. Some fat Mexican wethers from the pan handle of Texas brought $4 % Wednesday. That country is pro. ducing a good many sheep now, and of good quality generally. Feeders have been going out in large numbers, lambs at $4 50 to S4 65 for good weight stuff, light ones down to $4.15. The expected shortage of beef in the near future is going to broaden the horizon of sheep end of the trade on the markets.

Readable Items from the Cattle Ranges
 of Arizona Territory.

Coconino Sun: l.. D. Landers purchased three high grade Polled Durham bulls from Babbitt Bros recent shipment that are as fine looking animals as ever struck Arizona. Low is delighted with them.
 Coconino Sun: k. H. Crabb, manager of the Coconino Cattle Go. went to Holbrook Monday to superintend the shipment of a carload of steers bought of the Hart Cattle Go. The steers were originally purchased from the Slaughter herd in Apache county.
 Coconino Sun: Ed. Hamilton, the we'll known WiIliamsite, was in the city Monday with MT. c. E.. Boyce. MT. Hamilton purchased the complete Boyce cattle and range outfit, which were turned over to him. There is between 600 aud 800 head of cattle in the outfit, including section of land. The land and cattle are located in the Spring Valley country, one of the best located ranges in the county.
 Coconino Sun: Cattle profits will be greatly increased in this section of Arizona in a short time The active interest taken by nearly all cattlemen in securing a plenti ful supply of young, high grade bulls this summer, is bound to bring a good return for the money in a heavier and better grade of stock. Concerted action by all in. terested is necessary to bring about the desired result, and that is what happened this year.
 Coconino Sun: A shipment of 400 head of the fattest cattle brought in this year, was made yesterday to Phoenix and Los Angeles by Rabbit & Thurston, F. L. Dickson, J. G. Van Deren and w. H. Dicki- son. The fat stuff went to Cali fornia and the feeders to Phoenix. All were purchased by Mir. Norton. The Coconino Cattle Company shipped 412 head of cattle to Los Angeles Monday. They were bought by o. B. Fuller.
 Douglas International: Many cattle are coming out of Mexico during the fall season, more it Is said, than ever before. Buyers From Colorado and states further noeth are searching both Sonora and Chihuahua for cattle. The .cattlemen on this side of the inter national line are making import t. ant purchases in Mexico which will be kept on the local ranges until spring. The cattle industry today Is probably the most prosperous of any in the southwest, according to the investment

Our Lost Shipping Business.

The dispatches say that a veritable
 sensation was caused at Buenos Ayres
 few days ago by the arrival at the capital of the Argentine republic of a steamer flying the American flag II had been more than twenty years since an American ship had been seen in that harbor. American warships in plenty have been seen at Buenos Ayres, but no commercial ships. When it is remembered that the commerce of Buenos Ayres amounts
 to hundreds of millions annually, and
 that the commerce of Brazil and of
 other South American countries
 amounts to additional hundreds of
 millions, and that all goods shipped
 from the United States are carried
 under foreign flags, it is obvious that
 immense sums in freight charges are
 paid to foreign ships. It is d fact
 that there is practically no longer any commerce on the seas under the
 Stars and Stripes-everything for foreign shores is carried in foreign bottoms.
 Recognizing the immense advantage which would accrue to the manufac- turers and wholesale dealers of the United States if American goods could ha carria5 1f,Sacfl,- to f,,a;,r,, ,,o.... E., American ships. President Taft has long advocated a subsidy for Ameri- can ships in order that the United States may regain some of its lost commerce. But the ship subsidy project has been defeated so often in congress that it does not appear worth while to press the matter fur ther. At most. the subsidy plan will never be sanctioned by congress ex- cept in such modified form as to make it of little value in rebuilding our ocean trade.
 Why not return to the policy which prevailed in the early days of the republic? In 1S10, for instance, this | infant nations ships were seen on every sea and in every port It was because the government allowed a | rebate of 10 per cent on all imports | anded from American ships. A re- 1uction of the tariff on all foreign | goods brought to our shores in Ameri- ,an ships would do more to revive | 'ur dormant shipping industry than would any subsidy plan that has been proposed.

 ions and armor as if they had beer
 made of paper.
 The under water hits, of which | there were a great many, did tht
 most damage, and the fact that the
 vessel sank at the second salvo oi high explosive projectiles prevented many fires that would otherwise | have been started. As it was we had
 d roaring furnace on the gun deck in two different places and in the con ming tower, which the two fire tugs | got under control after an hours eff fort.
 'The upper works were absolutely riddled. There was not a single hal yard or a means of communication left The chart house was mass of splinters after the first projectile, and the decks were cut through as if an enormous pair of shears had done the work
 "One or two salvos from any one of our dreadnoughts will accomplish the same destruction. Of the salvos which were actually directed at the target the percentage of hits at that great range was away beyond eX- pectation The spotters have for the first time gained the necessary in formation which cannot be learned by firing against anything but a real vessel"
 It is possibly true, as many papers have urged, that the old Texas could have been put to some use in harbor defense in the event of war But as a fighting ship on the seas, she was utterly obsolete. This is proved by her quick destruction at a distance of five to six miles from the dread nought New Hampshire. from which the destructive shells were fired In the next war. victory on the ocean will be won by the navy which has the most accurate gunners; and as Secretary Meyer has well said, nee essary information was gained for the first time by making target of the Texas.

The Target vaIu. of the Texas.

| The many criticisms directed
 against the administration on account
 of the destruction of the old battle
 ship Texas in target practice are ad-
 mirably answered in the official re-
 port of what was accomplished.
 ''The New Hampshire placed the salvos anywhere she wanted" says Secretary Meyer, ''and when the gum ners wished to have some hits on the lconning tower and the turret armor | in order to observe the effect they
 had no trouble placing the shots at | from ten to twelve thousand yards range at just the point desired. "A few projectiles were directed against the masts. so as to show what would happen to the exposed com munication systems.
 An inspection of the vessel after the firing showed immense holes which had been ploughed through from one side to the other, many of them being below water and any one or two of them being sufficient to make the vessel a total loss. The armor of this vessel was unable to withstand the impact at the very great range at which we fired, and the battleship was a total loss after the first two salvos. were directed at her
 "All the officers of the fleet were deeply impressed with the accuracy and the great destructive effect of the projectiles. All the manikins which were placed at the guns rep resenting the crews were dreadfully cut to pieces. and the fumes and fire left by the passage of high explosive projectiles would have destroyed every living thing. The bulkheads in places were like sieves, due to the. action of high explosives, and all the compart- ments below were completely ri0died
 Tt was remarkable to note the enormous power of some of these projectiles, which at 12,0O0 yards went through the heaviest armor and con- tinued their work of destruction in- side of the vessel. This practice has demonstrated beyond doubt the im- mense value of the long range firing we have been having for the last two years, and shows that our methods of training are positively the best.
 There was no doubt that the Texas was a total loss very shortly after the firing began, and all hopes of raising her were given up. There are a dozen places where holes from four to six feet in diameter go right

The Kohlsast Case.

By coming forward to relieve his
 friend Edward Kohlsaat. from the ob-
 ligation of secrecy which Mir Kohl
 saat assumed when he published in
 the Chicago Record Herald some facts
 as to the Lorimer bribery scandal,
 MT Funk of the International Har-
 vester company not only did a manly
 thing, but saved both Mir. Kohlsaat
 and the investigating committee of
 the Illinois legislature from a very
 embarrassing predicament Mir Kohl
 saat had declared that he would not
 reveal the name of the man who had
 told him that a slush fund of one hundred thousand dollars had been
 raised, and the legislative commit tee had declared that MT. Kohlsaat would be sent to jail for contempt if
 he persisted in his refusal to give the
 name of his informant Thus mat
 ters stood when NIT. Funk appeared
 and volunteered the information that
 he was the editors mysterious friend According to Mir. Funk's story, he first learned of the bribery fund in question when he was approached, after the election of Lorimer, with a request that his company contribute SI0.O0O to a fund which was being raised to reimburse the parties who had advanced the hundred thousand to the corrupt legislators. He re- fused to contribute anything. and gave the information to Mir. Kohlsaat in confidence
 We note with interest that the press of the country is divided in opinion in discussing the ethical features oI this incident The papers which in sist that MT. Kohlsaat had no right to take an attitude of silence in face of the demands from the legislative committee have, we think, the better side of the argument
 The laws of this country do not recognize a newspaper confessional | It is true. of course, that newspaper writers generally, and newspaper managers particularly. are constantly | in. receipt of confidential information | about all sorts of subjects and ques- tions. A vast deal of the informa- ffrF haac fn If it were printed, sensations of which | the public never dreams would be sprung" Reputations would be shat tered, and citizens of good repute would have to go into exile. On the other hand. the public interest ire quently requires the publication of confidentially received. but it can be said to the credit of the newspaper profession that con- fidences are never voluntarily be- trayed. It is extremely rare that such a situation arises as that which, confronted MT. Kohlsaat But when such a situation does arise, what is the duty of the editor responsible for the publicity in question?
 It appears to us that the re- 'ponsible editor, having published the natter, must, in the interest of so- ,iety, stand ready to give the source # his information when so ordered I 'y a court or a committee of the equisite Jurisdiction The very fact hat information of grave importance 0 the public has been published, lays I he publisher under the moral and egal obligation of giving the source {. f his information when the ends of ustice require him to give the name . f his informant Mir Kohlsaat's case a las not on all-fours, as he seemed to mink, with the confidential relations f

OUR BODIES TEMPLES
-

Our bodies are the temples of the soul and he who misuses or defiles the temple hurts the soul. This is as true
 in the physical sense as it is in any other. If we are to live to the highest
 purpose we must take care of the body
 One may not scorn it and expect to
 have satisfaction out of life.
 Nature has wonderful and sure way
 of exacting her toll and when she de-
 mands payment is about as insstent
 as the tax collector. We may not
 abuse the body today and expect to escape some sort of punishment to-
 morrow. We may not neglect to pay attention to the needs of the body and
 expect to escape the penalty for the neglect.
 A physician called to attend a young woman who was suffering from an ill., ness that might have been prevented if she had attended to the ordinary needs of the body said to her as she walled out her suffering: Remember. my dear young friend. that our bodies are tenn pies to be kept in perfect order When we neglect them we must expect to pay the penalty. You are not suffer ing mortal illness. Your condition might easily have resulted in an ill., ness which would have been mortal, but when your monitor, Pain. stationed at the door of every human temple warned you you took notice. If we would but remember that these temples of ours are the most delicately con structed of any that can be conceived of and that when once deterioration sets in it is difficult to make repairs, we would not be so careless
 Most of us give more attention to keeping our shoes in order than we do in keeping our bodies in prime con- dition, and yet to do the latter exacts little hard work or extra time. In the first place while we have health and strength We are likely to overtax both Because we are physically strong we persist in making deep drafts upon the supply that should be conserved for our future emergencies. We strain our nerves in efforts that should never be attempted. We overtax our brains with tasks that should never be inn posed upon them and we do a thousand and one foolish things that We should not do. We remember all our foolish- ness when the emissaries of these fool hardy deeds assail us for payment of the toll Nature demands.
 Few rational people would contem- plate deliberately committing suicide, yet they do things that ultimately hasten death Few people would de- liberately injure a beautiful temple or in fact any temple no matter what it's physical attractions or lack of them, yet they destroy the beauty and symmetry of the temple of their own souls be- cause of their thoughtlessness and heedlessness
 It is no preachment to urge attention to the physical needs and to prevent physical ills by being careful in the days of health and strength. Attention to the sanitary needs Of the body, to giving it proper and sufficient exercise in the open air and keeping away from everything of a deleterious character will go far towards preserving health. ! keeping us fit for the emergencies of | life and helping us fulfill our purpose here. And. what is also important, give | us a comfortable old age.
