Governor Aldrich received message
from ex-Mayor McConaughay of Hol-
drege this afternoon that eight head Of
cattle had died few miles from that
place with a disease which had all the
symptoms of the horse disease that is
raging in Nebraska. DR.. Bcstrom was at
once notified and left on the first train
to investigate the matter
The governor says that indications
point to letting up of the disease among
horses and he urges all farmers to fol-
low as nearly as possible the directions
given out heretofore. They should keep
the stock in as clean place as possible
and feed them on dry food and hay cut
on high ground. The water tanks should
be kept clean and pure water given to
the animals.

GARY AND PERKINS AUTHORS
He Says Business of the Steel Com.
hine Is Steadily Decreasing in
Districts Where II Has
Competition.

| MINNEAPOLIS, Sept 1s.-Eow III,
| United States Steel corporation inciden
tally would benefit by the plank in tn,
third party platform proposing regulation
of trusts by a federal commission wa,
| discussed by Governor Woodrow Wilson
In his speeches as he passed from Sious
City, Ia, to Minneapolis and ST. Pau
today
1t was at Sioux Falls, s. D., that the
democratic nominee first drew atteatlor
to the origin of the third party plank
for handling the trust problem.
Where was the method now proposed
of regulating the trusts suggested? 2?
asked the governor; 1T was suggested
in the inquiry by the house of repre-
sentatives into the Steel trust and it was
suggested by Mr.. Gary and Mr.. George
w. Perkins. They have thought this
thing out.
II am not interested to question their
motives. 1t may be, for all know, that
they think and honestly think that that
ktsstte way to safeguard the business Of
this country. But whatever they think
this they know, that 1t will save the
United States Steel corporation from the
necessity of doing its business better
than Its competitors.
Business of Trust Decreasing.
For IL you will look into the statis-
tics of the business of the United States
Steel corporation, you will find that
wherever 1t has competitors, the amount
Of the product which 1t controls is de.
decreasing. not increasing; In other words
that 1t is less efficient than its competi-
tors, and Its control Of the product is
increasing only in those branches Of the
business where by purchase and other
wise, 1t has practical monopoly.
Moreover, have this to say to the
working man. Carry out the plan Of Mr..
Gary and Mr. Perkins and you will have
given a control in the market for labor,
which will suit those gentlemen perfectly.
They don't want competitors to come
into the market of labor, because new
competitors will mean new wages and
new wage scales. These are the very
men and almost the only men who have
successfully opposed union labor in the
United States"
Wilson Pays Tribute to Taft.
Governor Wilson paid warm tribute to
the character of President Taft today.
Il want to pay my tribute of personal
respect to the president of the United
States" said Governor Wilson in his
address at the parade grounds. II don't
believe anyone who knows the facts can
question his integrity or purposes. II
he has gotten into bad company, it Is
no fault Of his. He did not choose the
company, it was made beforehand.
IF he has taken their advice, it was
because they were nearest to him and
he did not hear anyone else. That is
the reason why should rather hear the
advice of crowd like this than the ad-
vice Of cabinet"

There is no other newspaper in Arizona that appears seven days week. It is the only morning newspaper in Phoenix and it is the only owner of an exclusive Associated Press franchise covering radius of sixty miles from Phoenix. It is the only newspaper in the state equipped with as many as four linotypes.
