MARKET OPENING
DEPENDS ON WAR
Present Status Likely to Be
Maintained Until Decisive
Battle Is Fought.
CONDITIONS ARE BETTER
Cotton Market Spot in Domestic Situa-
don-Wsshington Chapter. Ameri-
can Institute Banking.

The few who still haunt brokerage
establishments and read war kilograms
from New York do not find any particu-
lar degree OF optimism expressed as TO
the early opening OF the stock exchange
Until there Is something definite from
the war it is. considered unlikely that any
direct movement toward opening the ex-
change viii result
At the present time the rate OF ex-
change is the worst feature, but 1t Is
expected this condition will be relieved
somewhat within two weeks.
Reports published by the national banks
of the country in response to the call
Of the Comptroller Of the Currency prove
that the banks have plenty Of money and
that the amount in circulation is ample
Farmers are getting high prices for grain
and live stock and cotton is the only i'm
portant AGRICULTURAL product that Is de-
pressed. Private capital is available as
the over-subscription Of the New York
City loan demonstrated, and the three
year notes have risen TO a premium that
puts them on per cent basis. The
State Of Tennessee has been able to
borrow S1,25l0OO from a New York bank,
and the bank statement proves that the
banks in that State were able to finance
it themselves.
General trade in the West is good. but
the railroads are feeling the depression
i'm the South on account of the slow move
ment of cotton. Exports OF grain should
soon become heavy. Canada is selling
wheat as fast as possible at current
prices. The outlook is good. but farmers
should remember that this is the largest
wheat crop on record in the United
States and there are limits in what II is
worth even in war times
Tobacco to Aid Cotton.
The American Tobacco Company will
lend its support to the Buy -Bale-of-

This will be done through the pur-

TONERS throughout the South. The States
affected are Alabama, Arkansas. Florida.
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi North
Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina,
Tennessee and Texas.
Percival S. Hill. president of the Amer
lean Tobacco Company, says in his let

Summer Constipation Dangerous.
Postmaster

Constipation in Summertime is more
dangerous than in the fall, winter or
spring. The food you eat is often con-
taminated and is more likely to fer
ment in your stomach. Then you are
apt to drink much cold water during
the hot weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Collie, Fever, Ptomaine
Poisoning and other ills are natural re-
suits. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well,
as it increases the Bile, the natural
laxative, which rids the bowels of the
congested poisonous waste. Po-Do-Lax
will make you feel better. Pleasant
and effective. Take dose tonight,
SOC at your Druggist.

Colorado River Bridge to
be put in Commission.

Supt. Christie, of the Santa Fe, was
kingman visitor this week and re-
ported to Judge Krook, president Of
the Mohave County Good Roads AS
sociation that the railroad company had
about worked out the details for the
planking and safeguarding of the
bridge across the Colorado river for
the use of automobiles. The one thing
that has been holding up the use of the
bridge is the working out of the cleo
trical detail to put the block system in
to use for automobiles as we'll as trains.
This has been solved and when it is put
in it will be operated in the same man
ner as that in use in the train service.
When machine goes upon the bridge
the block will close against trains as
well as automobiles and when the ma
chine passes over the bridge the block
will open automatically. This is to
guard against any possibility of an ac-
cident and will leave the bridge open
TO travel nlgnt ana uay.
No toll has yet been arranged for,
but it is thought this item will be very
small. The opening of the bridge to
travel will not be later than the first of
October and may be about the fifteenth,
although an effort is being made to
have the work completed by the 7th of
September, to allow machines to make
the run to Oatman from Needles.
The Nickel department store on
Front street was broken into a few
nights ago and about 1908 worth of
silks stolen. The burglars entered the
building through window in the rear
and made good their getaway.
Frank VanMarter, after visit of
day or two with his parents in King
man, departed H'ith his family the
first of the week to Prescott, where he
will engage in business.
Infection and Insect Bites Dangerous.
Mosquitoes, flies and other insects,
which breed quickly in garbage pals,
ponds of stagnant water, barns, musty
places, etc., are carriers of disease
Every time they bite you, they inject
poison into your system from which
some dread disease may result. Get a
bottle of Sloan's Liniment. 1t is anti
septic and few drops will neutralize
the infection caused by insect bites or
rusty nails. Sloan's Liniment disin-
fects Cuts, Bruises and Sores. You
cannot afford to be without it in your
home. Money back if not satisfied.
Only 25c at your Druggist.
