ADHERENTS ARE DEALT A
 HARD BLOW

PHOENIX, July l.-The first real test of the strength of the supporters of Governor Hunt. in Phoenix came on Tuesday when an ordinance pass ed by the city commission was sub mitted to the voters at referendum election. The ordinance in question provided for the consolidation of the offices of city clerk and city magis- trate, and will effect a saving of about S3.0O0 per year to the city, with out affecting the efficiency of the ad ministration of the business of the city court.
 The referendum was secured by petitions circulated by friends of the governor, who desired to keep the present city magistrate in office, re- gardless of what it might cost the city, as he is one of the chief sup porters of the chief executive.
 In spite of the fact that all of his henchmen in the city worked against endorsing the ordinance, and the further fact that the "big white auto mobile" of the governor was used uulihS thS Ndy AO NsiiS NOtSiS lO ihC polling places, the action of the city commission was approved, and the ordinance endorsed, by vote Of over three to one in its favor, tho vote standing 345 in favor of con tinuing the sinecure of office. to l,l64 in favor of consolidation, and the say ing which it will produce in the ex- penses of the city.
 This result was made possible be- cause the merchants and the taxpay- CTS of the city generally became alive to the importance of the issue and took the trouble to vote in sufficient numbers to bring about the over defeat of those who still believe public office to be a private snap.

LOCAL PEOPLE START
 BIG BREEDING FARM
jFrom Fridays Daily.)

D. w. Russell and Richard Lamson of this city, who are establishing a livestock breeding farm in Skull val Icy, occupying portion of the ranch of W. w. Colby, are attaining consid- trablc prominence in that region for the high class character of the ami mals they are bringing in. The two registered Hereford bulls, received a few days ago from Roanoke, Mo, valued at over S400 per head. arc at- tracting very much interest in range circles, and with the 40 head of high grade Hereford COWS, Y heifers and 2 bull calves, this array of bovine celebrities is pronounced the finest bunch under one fence in the western rart of the county. It Is probable that in few years Prescott will lose a banker and a lawyer and the range will win a couple of cattle baronS, from the quiet manner in which these local residents are molding a future to have their product dot thousand hills.

CATTLE MARKET.
Special Correspondence.


 KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS. June 26-The course in cattle prices
 most of last week was downward.
 Receipts were liberal, quality showed
 a plainer case and killers increased
 the spread in prices accordingly
 Prime grades held steady, and short
 fcG and grass fat steers were off g to 5 cents. This decline caused
 falling off in the movement today, and moderate strength appeared ir the trade. Here receipts were 3lOO0 less than a week ago, and the same as a year ago. Most of the grass fat ard short fed steers sold at SS.25 to S950. and better grades brought $975 to Sl0.50. Nothing strictly prime was offered On the quarantine side, steers sold at So to $o15. With wheat harvest well under way in Southern Kansas, and spreading northward. and Tuesday of next week, national holiday, commission men say supplies will be small until nearly the middle of July. Cows and heifers have moi changed much in price and today they were in active demand. Veal calves arc bringing s to Sll. and bulls s to s. This is the slack sea son for stock and feeding cattle, but the few offered are finding ready outlet at SIPS to SS5O.
 After advancing g to 30 cents las, weeks hog prices declined moderate Y, and today turned up again and ! were within cents of the highest point last week. The top price today . was S9.95 and the bulk of the hogs sold at S965 to S9.9O. Considering the liberal receipts the market is uu- usual both as to outlet and prices. Last weeks $lO hogs were the first that ever crossed Kansas City scales at that price in June, and 70 cents above the high point in any previous June
 Demand for sheep last week was active. but today killers took off 25 to 50 cents and put the price list for lambs under II cents The bulk or the offerings today came from the Southwest and were Spring lambs that sold at SlO.25 to SlO.S5. Some clipped ewes brought S6.75.

32 MILES ID BECOME
 CITIZEN
SIXTY-FIVE YEAR OLD PIONEER CELEBRATES VISIT TO PRESCOTT BY ATTENDING MOVIES.

A small, foreign-looking man, ! olear-eyed and tanned by years of
 toll beneath the Arizona sun, walked into Prescott recently with an easy,
 swinging gait. No one noticed him
 particularly; he was dressed as a
 miner, carried sack of ore speci-
 mems and looked no different than the hundreds of other men who roam into Prescott every day from the sur rounding country.
 The name of this particular man was Charles l.. Sannicr, and he is one of the pioneer residents of Arizona. Although having never enjoyed the glare of publicity, Charlie Sannier has always been known as one of the squarest men in the State. Thurs day he proved that he was more than that, for when he reached Prescott he had completed 32-mile walk for the sole purpose of taking out for the second time his first citizenship papers.
 Sannier came to Arizona in 1879. Soon after he took out citizenship papers. He went to California in 1882 but returned to Arizona in 1895. The following year he went to Park creek, near the Placerita camp, where he has lived ever since. During his travels back and forth Sannier lost his citizenship papers He attempted to secure new ones from the records of their issuance but found that the records had been destroyed by the San Francisco fire. Court Clerk Pat Farley was called upon but could find no trace of the papers.
 Sannier at last decided that the only way he could ever become a legal American citizen again would be to go through the entire work os application and examination once more. At 5 o'clock Thursday morn ing he nonchalantly started out afoot. Although 65 years of age. the walk was nothing to him, and at } o'clock in the afternoon he sauntered into Farley's office, as unaffected by the hike as ii he had but walked across the street.
 When Sannier took out his first papers, half century ago, he re- nounced allegiance to William l. of Germany. Thursday he renounced allegiance to the present ruler O. Germany, a grandson of William l.
 "Thirty-two miles Is not walk" scoffed Sannier My nearest neigh bor on Park creek, Carl Rush, lives 2H miles from my house and I some times walk over to sec him several times a day. I have the best home in the world, and Park creek is boom ing. A Nevada man IS putting up new hoist on the old Hutchinson mine and values from it arc running from SIP to S60 ton"
 Sannier celebrated his trip to Prescott by attending a movie theatre ard probably got more en- joyment out of watching the flicker actors than any other person in the audience, for. in spite of its prosper ity Park creek does not as yet boas, Of any place of amuse<ent.
