The ninth annual convention of the Arizona Cattle Growers Association closed yesterday with a general busi- ness meeting. at which officers for the ensuing year were elected. Globe was selected as the city for the 1917 con vention and over 20 sets of resolu- tions were adopted. After the days work had been completed the cow men ended the three days of business and pleasure at a smoker while their wives concluded the fun at a card party.
 The officials elected are: L. L. liar mon of Phoenix, president; William Riggs Of Dos Cabazos, first vice president; Dan AIillett of Arlington, second vice-president; Judge Walter Shutes of Globe, third vice-president; Fen s. Hildreth of Phoenix, treasur- CT. On the recommendation of the organization and resolutions commit tee the body authorized the president to employ a secretary for the associ- ation at salary not to exceed SlHn per month and that ne shall be re- ouired to devote his entire time to the work of the organization.
 Globe won the 1917 convention by Q two-thirds vote over Nogales. Both delegations put up good fights for the meeting. The majority of the reso- lutions committee, Fred J. Colter, l.. H. Crabb, J. NJ. Waddle and I. l.. Campbell favored the Gila county city in their report while F. A. Reid and l. F. Wise, the minority, were incli1- ed towards going to Nogales. The report Of the majority was adopted after several speakers had put forth the claims of the two cities. Joe N. Prochaska. Harry Saxon, Charley Fowler, w. L. Barnum, John K. Hampton, Fen s. Hildreth, Bill Cook, F. H. Crabb and A. C. Webb spoke to the cowmen in favor of Globe. All kinds of good times were promised bv Prochaska while a written invita- ton from the Nogales Chamber of Commerce asking the cattlemeu to hold their convention i1 that city dur ing 1917 was read at the meet ing. The cattle industry in Santa Cruz county is large and the stockme are a real live bunch. The comme-- cial body promised that if Nogalej were given the convention it would guarantee that every provision Tor the comfort and entertainment of their guests would be in style equal to that of any Arizona city.
 Secretary of the American Nation al Livestock Association I. w. Tom- ! linson made a short talk before the | stating that ne and his wife had had one great time in Prescott | and that they had been entertained to the utmost. He also stated that he enjoyed attending the business end of the convention as much if not moro than the other part of it. Tomiinsoii advised the gathering on a number of important questions.
 The question of whether to support the Kent or the Ferguson land lease

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-Rates Of
the Rock Island and other railroads on
cotton seed oil, meal, hulls and cake
from Brownsville Tenn. to points east
of the Mississippi river and on or north
of the Ohio river were found unjustly
discriminatory today to the extent that
they exceed the rates contemporaneous-

The interstate commerce commission

Third. the commodities were staple and had

with six candidates practically GER.

thought that Whitfield county will raise
