HIDES, HORNS AND WOOL.
Read hie Items from the Cattle Ranges
 of Arizona.

Florence Blade: John Zellweger, the Kelvin cattleman, came down Wednesday to testify before the grand jury. The cattle thieves have made serious inroads in his range stock and he is anxious to see this sort of thing brought to a sudden close.
 Pheenix Gazette: Charles H. Brown was yesterday fined S200.00 in the federal court for grazing his sheep upon the forest reserve with out first having gone through the formality of obtaining a license. Be0ifacio Duran, a native, was fined $25 for the same offense. Duran is an ignorant Mexican and had not as many sheep as the defendant Brown.
 Bis6ee Review: The report is brought ill from the range country over toward the New Mexico line that there are cattle rustlers at work. A number of suspicious characters were seen and were questioned as to their business, but no charge could be brought against them, as only the fact that they seemed to be ranging around with out any appeSrent business could be charged against them Cattle thieves have been operating on the American side, aAd stock is missing, but the thieves operate from Mex icO and are over the border with their seizure before they can be ap prehended, and the existing condi- tien in Mexico makes it almost impossible to get stock, or in fact anything, after 1t has crossed the line. There is no doubt but that the cattle are taken for food.
 CoconinO Sun: The following dispatch from Prescott is self explanatory; One of the most i'm portant land and cattle deals con- sumated in this county in several months was closed yesterday when the interests of the Burnt Ranch Land and Cattle company lying west of Granite mountain were purchased by George A. Carter and Joseph H. Stephens. The con sideration it was reported runs to over $30,000. Embraced in the holdings of the selling company was the old Draper ranch, patented and two other we'll improved farming tracts also patented. Sev- ersl hundred head of cattle with the extensive range rights and pos sessory locations, are also included H. c. Cavness, secretary of the selling company, concluded the deal. The sale is noteworthy one, for the consolidation of range and livestock interests that will be effected It gives to Messrs. Garter and Stephens a domain that i, practically twenty by forty miles in extent, and with their othe interests, is considered one of tn, most desirable pieces of property in that industry in the state.

Vice President
James s. Sherman
Dies At Utica, Ny

Utica, N. Y, Oct. 3O.-After a
long illness Vice-President James
Schoolcraft Sherman died at his
home in this city at 9:42 O'Clock
tonight of uremic poison caused
by Bright's Disease.
He had been sinking since early
morning and it was realized that
death was only question of few
hours. There was a slight relief
shortly after Z o'clock caused by
an apparent improvement in the
condition of the kidney, but it
gave only temporary hope.
At 9 o'clock the patients tenn
perature rose to 100.
From that time his condition
rapidly became worse until the
end. Mr.. Sherman was unconscl-
Gus when the end came, and had
been for one hour. All the mem
bers of the family were present.
Besides Mr.. Sherman there we're
in the death chamber their three
sons, Sheriff., Richard U. and
Thomas NJ, and their respective
wives, R. Nj. and Sanford Sher-
man, brothers of MIR. Sherman,
and Mrs. l.. B. Moore and Mrs.
H. j. Cookingham, sisters of Mr..
Sherman.

Sum Of $4,000 Spent
For Bird Protection

New York, Oct. 80 The sum
of 100000 was spent by the Ma
tional Association of Audubon
societies this year for bird pro-
lection, Secretary 7. Gilbert Pear
son reported at the eighth annual
meeting here. He announced
that Mrs. Margaret Sage had
renewed her pledge of $4,000 a
year for three years for the pro-
lection of the robin in the south
ern states. The sum of 81, 800,
he added. would be spent for
bird protection in Alaska during
the coming year.
In the work for preservation of
the robin the reports show that
Virginia had responded to the
suggestion of the association by
passing a law taking the robin
from the list of game birds.
Work along this line would be
pushed in the six othern southern
states where hunters are now
permitted to shoot robins, Secre-
tary Pearson stated.

The governor is enthusiastic over his prospects for reelection and seemed to be absolutely confident of success at the polls next March. The receptions 1 have had during the past week." he said, "have been the most cordial I ever experienced At every appointment the crowds were large, the attention good and the manifesto tions of support all that 1 could de- sire. The opposition, in that section of the state at least, is apparently less than was shown in my race two years ago, and l am convinced that my majority in the counties 1 have just visited will be even greater than it was then" Governor Donaghey

FIRST FERTILIZER
 CARS RECEIVED

The first cars of what promises to be record-breaking receipts of com mercial fertilizer are being unloaded at Conway today, and for the next several weeks the air around the busi- ness section of Conway will be laden with the odors of this commodity. The fertilizer business here has grown to be one of great and constantly in- creas.ng importance, and this year the amount received, it is stated, will be much larger than ever before. Fear of the boil weevil, it is claimed

STRAWBERRY MAN
 MAY MOVE HERE

After making a canvass of the Vi cinity of Conway for the purpose of stimulating interest in strawberry growing, G. B. Brown of Morrilton was so favorably impressed with this section that he has about decided to come here to make his home, and is in Conway today for the purpose of buy ing a farm near Conway. Mir Brown is a prosperous farmer who has made success of strawberry growing near Morr.lton "There is unquestionably a great future for the strawberry business around Conway" he said to- day. q have never seen land that was better adapted to berries than that in the vicinity of this city. You people do not realize the tremendous possibilities of this enterprise, but it would not surprise me if in a few years strawberries should become your leading money crop"

MAY CALL STATE
 COMMITTEE AGAIN PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY
IS FAVORED BY CHAIRMAN MILWEE OF STATE CEN
 TRAIL COMMITTEE.

Little Rock, Feb. 12.-There is a probability that a special meeting of the Arkansas state Democratic cen- tral committee will be called by Chairman R. F. Milwee upon the re- quest of many of the members, for the purpose of reconsidering the vote by which at the last meeting the Har- rod resolution for a presidential pri- mary failed to pass. A large number of the committeeman have been writ ing Judge Milwee, requesting him to make the call, and it is understood that he is personally in favor of it. Those who have not yet written the chairman are being requested to do so. "The proposition is being pre- esnted to the voters of both parties in other states,' says the friends of the direct primary, then why not in Arkansas? Why should Arkansas be behind?"
 The Harrod resolution provided that on the ballot at the March pri- mary, under the words For Presi- dent" shall be printed the names of Woodrow Wilson, Champ Clark, Jud- son Harmon, Oscar Underwood and others who may at the time be prom 'nently before the country as candi- dates for the Democratic nomination. The person receiving the highest number of votes shall be declared by the committee as the first choice of Arkansas Democracy for the nomina- tion.
