OTHER TOWNS
 WILL SHARE
The Probable Application of Reduced Live Stock Rate Granted Phoenix by l. c. c. to Other Points in Arizona.

In the judgment of F. A Jones'
 commission, who has just returned from Chicago, where he appeared be- fore Chairman Prouty of the Inter state Commerce commission in cases affecting livestock rates in Arizona. a good case was made, and it is practically certain an adjustment of rates will be made in accordance with the requests of shippers. The proceeding was prosecuted by the National Livestock association and the corporation commission. Those directly in interest are the Arizona Cattle Growers association and the Arizona Wool Growers association, which are branches of the national association referred to above.
 The object of this hearing was to obtain for all other points in Ari- zona the same rates as those en- joyed now by Phoenix shippers. It will be recalled that some months ago the Interstate Commerce com mission ordered a reduction on cat tie rates from s12S.S5 the 36-foot
 
 tentative agreement reached at conference at Ash Fork last winter The tentative agreement was entered into by some of the subordinate of ficials of the railroads, but was aft erwards repudiated by those higher in authority. Subsequently the mat ter was taken before the commission
 and a reduction was ordered to cor respond with the figures comprised
 in the agreement.
 That order. however. applied only to shipments from Phoenix to the l coast market. All other towns in Arizona were left at a disadvantage, and it was for the purpose of ex- | tending this rate to all other parts | of Arizona that this proceeding was | brought.
 Mir Jones and T. w. Tomlinson 1 appeared for the shippers and sev- 1 eral railroad attorneys appeared for ! the carriers, the Santa F'e, Southern ! Pacific and Fl Paso and Southwest l ern. MT. Norton, representing the | railroads. asked that the case be
 continued but the request was de- | nied. Chairman Prouty, however. | said he will be in Denver about the middle of September. when the case
 will be reopened and additional testi- 1 mony may be offered. The shippers
 however. made out their case com l plete and it is unlikely that they will have any further evidence to intro l duce. ---.-
 i In discussing this matter yesterday | MT Jones said there is no question
 but a s95 rate is sufficient to pay a good profit to the carriers. Indeed | he favored an sS5 rate, as, he said 1 shipments in many sectons are car l ried a greater distance than from 1 Phoenix to Los Angeles for that 1 amount Presumably. however. the l commission will fix the rate at s95 | the rate which now applies to this 1 city.

And not only is the track in good sha pc but all other matters relative to the big show are shaping up splendidly. There will be plenty of high class racing en- tries-in fact we look for some of the best rae n.s that have ever been put on the Phoenix track and we shall be disappoiHted if this year does not wit ness the breaking of some important records. It must be said also there is d general and most gratifying response on the rart of propOesd exhibitors; and when all the features are taken into consideration we have every req son to believe that the first state fair will be the best that has ever been witnessed in Arizona
 In addition to those already mention ed a vast number of minor improve ments dre under way. The women's rest room will be repainted and fur bished up throughout; the grounds will be put in the best condition poss- ible; and every other detail will re- ceive careful attention.
 The members of the commission left at five o'clock yesterday evening for their homes. The next meeting will be held probably shortly after the close of the summer vacation season.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
 AT FAIR GROUNDS
Among Them a New Building For
 Exhibits.

Following it's work of Monday the fair commission was again in session yesterday and transacted a large amount Of business The concession contract awarded to Chas. Sanichas, the details of which had not been fin ished the first day, was completed. The commission in company with Sec retary C. B. Wood. took trip to the fair grounds. inspected the track and buildings. and decided definitely upon improvement details. Also. the adver- Using arrangements were completed. This work will be in the hands of Harry T4ffe who had charge of it all so, last gear
 But perhaps the most important de- CisiOn reached by the board. the one al least which will be of interest to the largest number of people, was for the erection of a new building for ex- hibits. This building will be 40 by 80 feet and will be located between the mineral building and the woman's building. Steps will be taken at once to provide for the submission of bids and the awarding of the contract.
 The track was never in better con dition at this time of the year" said the commission yesterday in discuss ing the prospects for the 1912 fair.

 OSBORN

OSBORN: July 23.--News that will please the residents of this district most is the improved service which will be given to those who reside on the Indian school car line. President
 Mitchell. of the Phoenix Railway Co.,, has gone to St. Louis where he will buy four of the most up to date cars on the market, two of which will be run on the Indian line with the two that now are on the Glendale line, making ten minute service. The work on the second track, which has been delayed on account of the material not arriving will be resumed in ,a few weeks, and it is expected to take about three months to finish, so as to handle the extra heavy traffic which always comes with the cooler weather. The special features about these new cars are the seats. which will be cushioned instead of the present time back breakers" the ears will have air brakes, making them much easier to operate and safer to ride on and the entrances will be in the middle of the car in-

Fine roads, boat getting along swimmingly and little me enjoying every minute of it. is the way Hal Davis writes Harley headquarters concerning his long cross country spin on a motorcycle.
 The letter came from Hartwell, Nebraska, where Hal has passed over a week fishing and hunting He mentions the fact that his actual running time between Phoenix and Hartwell is just ten days. which is some dusting for a tWo-wheeler.
 In the opposite direction are two more perspiring Phoenix chug- -bikers, Babe" Valentine and Joe O'Connell, who crossed the desert and traversed California without much predicted misfortune.
 The boys have been gone about four days. actual running time, and having taken it slowly were able to tell they had been through some pretty country. They have arrived in Los Angeles by the time this is before their friends.

You're doing that

He seemed to have his own way
with her. She followed him into the
house, and, sitting before the piano. he
struck several chords.
''This won't. do he said snappishly.
THE thing can't have been tuned in
years. These people can't expect you
to get on with tin pan. What's the
agents name?'
Before she could stop him he had
rung up the agent on the telephone. and
she was Mortified to hear him say:
Miss Kissock. the head gardener,
wants to know what you mean by
leaving the piano in such condition
She says if you don't have a man here
to tune it right off she'll throw up her
job"
He flung down the receiver and re-

you have there's none left for us wo-

She consented to let the matter rest,
and, sure enough, the next morning
the piano was tuned. Then the first
assistant gardener insisted on the head
gardener spending the morning with
him in the music room.
Finally the grounds were laid out on
the new plan The men the assistant
had hired kept at work and seemed
satisfied with their pay. How their
boss managed the finances to make
anything was a mystery.
When the work was ready to turn
over to the agent the artist took his
traps and moved on 1t seemed to the
girl that her world had moved on and
left her desolate. The agent sent word
that the owner had arrived and he
would bring him to inspect the
grounds. Miss Kissock dreaded lest
her scheme should be disapproved.
Doubtless the globe trotter owner was
used to the beautiful landscape gar

the two arrived she was in her room.
