THE STEEL MARKET.
Current Volume of Incoming Busi-
ness Affords Hope for Higher Prices.

Leading steel authorities feel confident
that the second half of the current year
will show considerable improvement over
the first half, and a number of concerns
are already doing much better this month
than they did in June The improve
ment In the case Of the independents is
even more pronounced.
At the present price levels not much
margin OF profit remains for Independent
manufacturers and they have been ar
fcctcd more severely in this regard than
has the steel Corporation, which is able "a
effect much greater economies In fabrica-
ton Should orders be maintained at the
present ratio all are confident that higher
prices will be quoted soon.

A GOOD RECORD

In supporting the candidacy of
Fred L. Ingraham for superior Judge,
| the Examiner desires to call atten-
ton to Mr.. Ingraham's excellent re-
cord as a member of the constitu-
tiCnal convention. The three dele
gates from Yuma county to that con-
vention, all elected upon the Dem
Ccratic ticket, were Short of BouSe,
Ingraham and Winsor of Yuma. No
delegation had greater influence
upon the constitution than the delega-
zion from Yuma county. The pro-
gressive and liberal provisions of that
document bear in every line the
impress Of the work O. Yuma county
delegation.
Great pressure was brought to bear
upon that convention, through the
yellow press, and otherwise, to induce
outlined by the people in the election.
Some delegates hesitated under the
fire and finally ran, but not Yuma
county's delegation; they, with voice
and vote, labored to the end for a
constitution such as the people had
outlined.
And when the constitution was
finished-the greatest and freest
constitution of any state in the
UniOn-aH parties of Yuma county
forgot partisan differences in gen
uine and manly admiration of that
triumph for the common people and
the honest effort that had accomplish
ed it. A great non-partisan banquet
was given at the Southern Pacific
hotel in Yuma in honor of Yuma
county's returning delegates. Many
who were present will long remem-
Der that event as one of the rare oc-
casions when genuine feeling, rising
above all political controversies and
ambitions, paid a tribute to the real
worth of three of our fellow citizens.
The voter in making up his mind
how to vote for superior judge should
not forget the patriotic services of
Fred L. Ingraham Yuma
Daily Examiner. Advt.

ANNOUNCEMENT

My friends Of northern Yuma coun-
ty have prevailed upon me to make
the race for state representative, be-
lieving that this end of the county is
entitled to at least one member of
the legislature
Another reason for my candidacy
is that in the event of the success
of the constitutional amendment pro
viding for state reclamation, it will
be necessary to secure additional
legislation at once so that the meas
ure may become operative and in full
working force, so that the Parker
lands may be reclaimed by the state.
The proposed measure appears at
this time to be our only immediate
hope of financing the Parker irrlga-
ton project. Therefore, it was
deemed highly important that this
part OF The county be represented
in the next legislature. In comply
ing with the wishes of my friends
Of northern Yuma to stand for the
office l have been actuated solely
from sense of duty which every
citizen owes his home community.
During the past four and half
years | have worked necessarily for
the opening and reclamation of the
Parker lands, and if elected to the
office of state representative l shall
continue to do everything within my
power to accomplish this much de
sired object, as we'll as conscientious
ly working for the general welfare
of the county and state.

GEORGIA STATE LEAGUE NOTES.

The dope in the Georgia State at this
stage of the game indicates that the
league directors will be called upon to
buy no less than six pennants.
Every team in the league looks better
than ever before, and naturally each
city feels that this is pennant year.
However, this much is absolutely GER
tain Manager Dudley. of the Thomas
vile Hornets, proposes to do his best for
a second rag.
There was lot Of talk last fall of the
Georgia league being increased to an
eight club circuit, and now the dope is
moving again to the extent that Dublin
and Fitzgerald want TO enter
Having an exceptionally well-balanced
league of six teams, il is not probable
that the directors will increase the
league to eight teams this year If the
1914 season proves all the prospects in
dicate favorable action may be given
applications for membership later.

league boys and lot OF knocking that

season has signed with Naycross for
1914. He is considered splendid left
fielder and bats around 800 regularly.
