DANGEROUS TO BUY
 NAVAJO BLANKETS

Thefollowing was clipped from a New York paper and Flag staff jobber was in New York about that time.
 kOne of the partners in west ern dry goods jobbing concern which handles large quantities of Navajo blankets was in New York the other day and dropped Tn on firm which also sells quantities of blankets. He was not known to the man i'll charge of the blanket department and on asking how much Navajo blankets sold for in New York was greatly surprised to be told that $500 was not an unusual price. As his firm only gets $35 or thereabout forgood blankets, he asked the New York dealer:
 What makes them so high?"
 "Well, you see," was the ex- planation. given with a serious ness which left the westerner con. vinced that the New York man thought to himself, "collectine Navajo blankets is a dangerous business. There are such hard, ships connected with getting them that, that increases their value. Why, do you know, three out of five men we send out to the wilds to buy the blankets are killed by those savage h. dians!"
 That's the kind of a man." said the western merchant, as he told the story, "who thinks buff. faloes still roam the streets ol Kansas City" ."-Flagstaff Sun.

COCHISE SHERIFF
 HAS BLOODHOUNDS

Hereafter when acrime ofpuzz ling nature committed in Cochlse county the bloodhounds will f. gure as necessary to the para pheruaiia for criminal nabbing employed by the Sheriff Harry Wheeler and his deputies. Three finely bred hounds, for some time quartered in Douglas have been forwarded to Sheriff Wheeler, two ofSthem by Deputy Sheriff Charles. Harris, and one by Bob Hilburn.
 The dogs are to be kept in Tombstone in readiness for any work their keen scent fits them for. They are highly bred animals imported from Texas at consider. ableexpense and should undoubt- edly prove themselves adopts at the art ot criminal tracing.
 There is some difference of opin- ions as to the availability of bloodhounds ill Cochise county, owing to extreme dryness pre- vaifng at certain seasons of the year, which some people say will spoil the chances of the dogs picking up the scent of a crimin- al and following it successfully For this reason their first trial will be watched with interest. - Arizona Democrat.

The greatest strength the Socialists have shown in Alaska vas at the last delegate election when they boiled a total of ,6SS votes Of that number 9SS votes were polled in the Fourth division. Therefore. if they do not elect their ticket here. where they show their greatest strength, their chances of having any appreciable number of legisla- tors in the first Alaskan congress will be mighty small.
