sheep--There has been another continued
decline In sheep and lambs the last week.
True, the break has not been nearly so
rapid as IL was the week before, and since
Monday there has been no bad decline, but
the undertone has been easier and every
day has seen lower prices for some grades.
though towards the weeks close bulk held
about steady at the decline.
Clipped lambs show less OF slump than
anything else, not having dropped over 75c
since last weeks close. High dressing
clipped Mexicans are still selling up to $1425,
having been unchanged since Tuesday, while
S13.5001400 Is buying the bulk Of the
clippers. Compared with the high time
clipped lambs are not over 50 lower.
On the better grades Of springers there
has been break of about $100, while fair
to common stuff. which includes most of tho
natives that are coming. are off more than
that. A good many OF the native spring
lambs are selling at s12.o0@16.0o. Those
that have been bringing the latter price
were not the best, but packers say that the
figure 10 about the limit. though sellers
have an idea that something real desirable,
whether natives or rangers, would sell a
little higher. Culls are selling at 10000
1900. Values are from $3.50 on the better
kinds to s4.00 or more on others under two
weeks ago. the high spot
The supply of old sheep has consisted
mainly of wet ewes In lots OF q deck or less.
The better Of these arc selling around $500
@s.7b. with others at s7oo0soo and the
worst culls under that. They are around
si.B0 lower. Choice few westerns from the
same feed lots as those that brought $14.00
at the high time. were unable to beat
$1,000 on the midweek trade. Wethers and
yearlings are nominaly credited with q
similar reduction, though none Of conse-
quence have been offered.
What feeders are coming have, while a
little slow, sold fairly we'll. As high az

springers. while feeder buyers took thin
natives at s1o.0o@13.oo. California feeding
yeariings sold at s116o@13.0O. while odd

NEW DEVICE MAKES IT
EASIER AND SAFER TO
LEARN CAR DRIVING

Several months of successful opera
ton of a double steering wheel car by
Bishop, Mccormick & Bishop. OF
Brooklyn, have supplied the comfort
ing assurance that day is coming
when embryo motorists will learn the
art of driving with much greater
safety to themselves, to other motor
lists, and to the general public.
The double steering wheel device
permits the instructor to retain con
troll over the car at all times, even
though the pupil is doing the actual
driving and gear shifting. This ar
langement enables the pupil to try his
hand almost Immediately on traffic
ridden streets, with the result that lie
is far better equipped to drive alone
after one or two lessons than the aV'
erage raw motorist" is after three 10
four. The instruction car is not only
equipped with two steering wheels
but with two sets of brake and clutch
pedals. Automobile TOPICS" saws:
Because OF this ARRANGEMENT both in
structor and learner feel confidence
that cannot exist when there is SIN
gle control In unskilled hands. The
nervous strain that is eliminated can
best be appreciated by those who have
been through the experience"
The Brooklyn firm precedes this In
struction by series of lessons in an
anchored car" which is set on a plat.
form in such q way as TO leave the
wheels free. In front of the car is :
semaphOre with which the instructor
flashes signals to the driver. Sharp
turn" steep hill" etc, direct the pu-
Pill to manipulate his controls accord
ingly, while q special brake lever e.
ables the instructor to produce prac-
tically the same conditions as would
result on the road. Both the dual
contro. and the anchored car were
originated by Bishop, Mccormick &
Bishop. and patents are applied for on
each. Bishop, Mccormick & Bishou
are the Dodge Brothers dealers in
Brooklyn. ..

had more population. They will be
lamentably shy on that item when
the strike closes, however, and there
in is no small threat to the future,
because it means that there will be a
shortage of labor as well as short
age of trade. It.will not be recovered
from in months, because many of the
men now leaving are going to new
lines of employment, mainly in the
shtpyards, in such cases as they are
not finding locations in distant min
ing camps where trouble has not en-
tered. Meantime boarding houses are
closing, merchants are working their
collectors overtime, but nobody else,
and retrenchment is the order of the
day. Many summer vacations will not
happen.
The wages being lost to circulation
because the copper is not being got
out to pay those wages, will run to a
total of more than one million dollars
the week on the present shortened
basis of production, the amount grow
ing as production goes down. Thus
more than $4,000,00O the month is be-
ing lost to business channels while /.
w. W. terrorism keeps men from
work in Arizona The companies are
losing as much more from surplus and
dividend possibilities. And producers
of mining machinery, fuel and sup
plies of every kind, the production of
which calls upon practically every
line of manufacture in the United
States, for there is nothing the peo-
pie of the mining center do not use,
are losing an equally large amount
Decrease in the effectiveness of
present strikes may soon cut down
the 100000 pounds, the monthly
loss which is now being sustained;
but, on the other hand, threatened
strikes in districts other than those
now suffering may materially raise
the total. With it ALL the l. w. w.

strike after another. Federal troops

SCHOOL BOND ELECTION CALLED
FOR AUGUST Il; WILL BUILD
TWO NEW, DP-TO-DATE BUILDINGS

The notice calling for an election
for the purpose of voting bonds in the
sum of fifty-eight thousand dollars
has been posted and appears in this
issue of The Copper Camp. This bond
money, if voted favorably upon, will
be spent in erecting two school build
ings for the Ray district The pres
ent school quarters have become too
cramped to give efficient training, and
at a recent meeting of the board of
trustees it was decided to call an cleo
tion if a market could be found for
the bonds. After investigation it is
thought there will be little difficulty
in disposing of the bonds and it may
be possible that Ray will have some
ned school building in the near fu-
ture.

.L|FELESS GAME
WON BY SMELTER

The Smelter defeated the Mill base
ball team last Sunday at Hayden in
game that was anything but snappy
While both pitchers were touched up
for seven hits each, Leverett, pitch
ing for the Smelter was able to keep
his we'll scattered and no par ticular
damage resulted. In the seventh John
son, pitching for the Millers, was
found for three hits of the seven and
the three hits resulted in four runs
buddy was the feature of the day, get
ting two safe hits and one of them
being a home run. Both pitchers ap-
peared to be in fine trim at the start,
but Johnson was apparently weaken
ing in the latter half of the game
Leverett was steady through the full
nine innings and was, if anything, get
ting better at the last.
Critchlow, the new fielder for the
Smelter boys, appeared to be improv-
ing over his last appearance. He was
playing left field Sunday and accepted
everything that came his way without
an error. Out of three trips to the
bat he succeeded in driving the pill
out for a clean two-bagger. Engle, the
new addition to the Mill team, was
seen at short in Sundays game, while
Davis was playing center field.
Following is the score.

DEATH CALLS FOR
c. A. RICHMOND

Many hearts were saddened last
Saturday when word was passed
around that G. A. Richmond, one of
the best known and liked men of the
town had passed away on the train
while being taken to Phoenix, where
he was to be treated by specialist.
The immediate cai1se of death was
due to the contraction of the muscles
of the throat
Mr.. Richmond had been a sufferer
from throat trouble for several years
and recently the trouble became
acute. He was treated by local physi-
clans, and it was decided the latter
part of the week that he should go to
Phoenix to a throat specialist. Sub
sequently he was driven to Ray juno
tion and there took the train. He
was very weak from the exertion of
the trip and because of the heat, and
the train had not gone a mile out of
the junction until it was discovered
that he had passed away in the arms
of his loving wife.
The train was backed up to the
junction and the body was returned
to Ray, where it was prepared for
shipment to the old home of the fam
lily at Hart, Michigan.
Mr.. Richmond is survived by wife
and two children, and to whom his
passing has been a great shock, in
deed. The bereaved ones are joined
in their sadness by host of friends.
Mr. Richmond was until confined to
his home employed by the Ray Con-
solidated company and had been here
for several years. Mrs. Richmond and
the children left Monday for the east,
where they will reside in the future.

STRIKES COSTING TAXPAYERS
OF STATE 100000 A WEEK

BISBEE, Ariz., July 19.-Arizona
taxpayers are losing something like
100000 per week because of the Ia
Dor troubles in the state at this time
That figure is based upon the taxes
the copper mines would pay if operat-
ing full capacity for the privilege of
taking ore out of the ground. Their
tax payments are figured upon the
tonnage of copper they produce and
the price they get for it.
Arizona's production the present
month, under normal conditions,
would have been around ninety mill
ion pounds. AS matters stand, 46
million pounds %have been cut off the
total by strikes. Canannea's 100000
pounds should be added, making 53,-
100000 million pounds taken out of
production through the 1. w. W..
movement in Arizona. The tax loss
on the 46,OOO,0OO pounds which the
state will not make this month, fig
uring % cents as the price the pro-
ducers would receive, which is about
what their contracts average, will go
something over 100000 the month.
The business man, the city property
owner, the farmer and the cattleman,
the latter two classes in the largest
measure, will have to dig into their
pockets to make up the shortage, for
the state needs every dollar of normal
times tax production to conduct it's
business.
Meantime business men the state
over are being handed a close-times
envelope that two months ago they
did not dream to be among the possi-
bilities. Those in the mining districts
are at the immediate time the heav-
lest sufferers, but the tightening up
is reaching out over the state from
the mining districts rapidly, and it
will not be long until the outside cit
les feel it sharply. The money of the
mining districts keeps the banks of
outside communities flush, provides
loans for farmers and cattlemen, and
for those improving city property
Thousands of dollars of it, too, are
carried to the outside towns by trad
ers and vacationists from the mining
centers. 1t has been estimated that
but for the present trouble, Arizona
miners and their families, and the
business and professional men and
their families would have carried ten
million dollars to Los Angeles and
it's beach resorts this season. They
will have to get along with probably
less than half of that unless there is
more speedy wiping out of the trou-
BILE in the state than there is now the
prospect Of
1t is estimated that in the larger
mining cities of the state the decrease
in business and the loss of accounts
will run from $15O,OOO in the first
week at Globe Miami to more than
100000 in Bisbee Pocket-books have
snapped shut Trade is at a stand
still. Nobody is doing business ex-
cept the railroads. These are carry
ing more passengers from the mining
centers than ever before in their his
tory, because the mining camps have
