Representative Mattox is a
Hustler

To Frank Mattox of Winslow, Nav
ajo county, belongs the credit and
honor of having introduced the first
act in any legislative body in the
United States having as its object the
ratification of the seventeenth amend
ment to the federal constitution, Which
provides for the direct election of un;.
ted States senators by the people.
There was no opposition to the re-.
solution, the vote being unanimous in
approval. If the Senate shows the same
celerity In passing this resolution as
has the house, Arizona will undoubtedly
be the first state in the Union to ratify
the amendment.
In addition to the above resolution
MattoX was successful this morning in
getting through the house by a un-
animous vote, his bill providing for
the erection by the state of bridge

Kansas City Stock Yards, June 3rd,
1912.-Top grades of cattle are steady

fairly secure position on account of
scarcity, but middle and lower classes

leaning towards strength for the good
ones, and weakness for the others. The
supply to-day is 5000 head, a moderate
run in the native division being aug
mented by good supply of quarantine
cattle, about 100 cars. The quarantine
cattle now coming are largely
from Texas, about equally divided be-
tween the Northern and Southern
parts. Those from Northern Texas have
had fairly good course Oh meal and
cake, and sell at $500 to $3.50, while
those from South Texas are mainly
straight grassers, at $5.10 to $3.50, some
that have had cake on the grass up to
$6.35. These cattle are plentiful at all
the markets, either direct from shippers
or consigned to packers, who have
bought them at Ft. Worth, where most
of them congregate. This is the only
bear item Oh the list, and buyers are
making the most of it. 1t has served
