STATE BOARD OF TRADE.

The annual meeting. of the state board of trade was held during fair week, in Phoenix. MT. Andrew Kimball was elect ed president of the board and other officers were changed around and moved up. The inn portant feature of the meeting was a decision to get all the commercial bodies vigorously behind the movement to make big and successful shows here after at the national congresses, especially the soils and pro- ducts, where such signal success has already been achieved. The board decided also to hold semi annual instead of quarterly meet ings unless there is some occa- sion for special meetings when they may be called by the pre- sident. Prof G: E.. P. ..

 Deputy sheriffs in Ray have orders to arrest everybody they find carrying a bottle of liquor; and all persons so arrested will be prosecuted for violation of the new prohibition amendment which forbids the transportation of liquor from one point to another within the state of Ariz- ona.
