DAY Is HOLIDAY

From the commencement of our
history as a people, by the designa-
tion of special anniversary days, it
has been the costum to commemorate
events and achievements marking
the progress of the nation, or in
grateful and loving tribute to citi-
zes who by their lives or nobility
and patriotism have upheld the hon
or and glory Of their country.
AS the story of the Liberty Bell
brings TO each generation of Ameri-
cans feelings of gratitude, pride and
joy, 80 will history give to future
generations the story of the signing
of the armistice on November II,
1918. That outburst of JOY as re-
corded throughout the land may nov
er be repeated, but as long as time
shall last every American on the an
niversary of that triumphant day
will pay grateful, joyful tribute TO
the victorious heroes of the Great
World War.
The American Legion has suggest
ed that November 11th be known as
Armistice Day and requests that it be
set aside as a legal holiday.
AS Governor of the State of Idaho
] am glad to comply with this sug
gestion and request.
Now, therefore, l, d. w. Davis
Governor of the State of Idaho. dc
hereby designate Tuesday, November
II, 1913, Armistice Day, and pro
claim it a holiday throughout the
State Of Idaho, to be observed by the
people in a split of thankfulness and
Joy and prayer that Divine Provi.
dence may continue to guide our ne.
tion to righteous victories.
In witness whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused the
Great Seal of the State of Idaho tC
be affixed.
Done at Bose, the capital of tn,
State, this 29th day of October, 1919

FINANCES AND
MARKETS
TRepubIicN ZAP. Leased wireJ

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Under pres
sure from the Federal Reserve board
and powerful financial interests, Wall
street today adopted more vigorous
measures to put its house in order.
This was accomplished by further
severe impairment of quoted values,
a turnover of more than 2,500000
shares, the years record. and an ad
vance in call loans to 80 per cent-a
rate unparalleled since the panic of
1907.
Altogether, the session witnessed the
most severe purging the stock market
has experienced since Wall street en-
tered upon its period of postwar pros
perity.
During the decline, which began at
the outset, speculative favorites regis
tered losses of 10 to % points, their
minimum quotations being so to 60
points below maximums of the last
fortnight.
General Motors. which recently sold
at higher price than any other stock
again was under persistent pressure
dropping 6S1a points to ESQ, or a loss
of 1861 points from its high record 81
last week.
Z
riety of stock issue, although United
States Steel, high grade rails and the
copper shares finished at relatively
nominal losses However, rails as &
group forfeited virtually all the i'm
provement made in the previous
months.
Liquidation was so general and con
slant as to defy analysis. From al
accounts much of the selling was in
voluntary and a large proportion wa,
traced to out of town traders, who ex'
pressed encouragement at the mar
ket's sharp reversal.
There was little calling of loans, bu
only small sums were available at cal
at the opening rate of IA per cent
while time money was scarcely obtain
able except for short dates at 712 to
per cent.
The local reserve bank officials a
their meeting took no action looking +
a further advance of the discount rate
Banks which specialized in loans t
brokers stated after the close of tn
market that loans had undergone yer,
substantial reduction. While no fig
ures were mentioned, it was believe
4 that events of the last two days ha
/ curtailed brokers' accommodations b
no less than $250,000000.

GARDNER IS At TER
TEN ROUND BOUTS

Bob Gardner. a promising looking
coast lightweight, has recently arrived
in Phoenix TO be initiated into the To-
round game. Accompanying him TO
this city was Joie Jenner, another coast
lightweight.
Gardner is only youngster but has
promising future, judging from his
work on the coast. He has been care
fully schooled in the manly art of self
defense and his training work indicates
that he has been under the direction
of masters in the art.
Realizing that little was to be &C
complished if he was to forever be
confined to four round bouts Gardner
came TO Phoenix and Arizona in the
search of opponents over the longer
route. However, his handlers have
insisted that he proceed carefully,
gradually working up to the 10-round
game rather than by plunging in a
bout of that duration at the jump.
Young Gardner is brother of Tip
Gardner, well known second, who sue
| cessfully piloted Rufus Williams
through his 10-round bout with Speed
ball Hayden last Friday evening after
being all but knocked out in the first
round.
The wide experience of the elder
! Gardner, together with his knowledge
of the game. will be a valuable asset
for the junior member of the family
in his bouts in Arizona.

MINOR LEAGUES MAKE
PEACE WITH MAJORS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Nov. -. -
Business relations between the minor
and major baseball leagues which were
strained year ago with the abrogation
of the national agreement, will be re-
sumed as a result of action taken by
the National Association of Profess
sional Baseball leagues in it's annual
meeting.
According to Secretary John H. Far
rells report, following an all-day ex-
ecutive session, the minors have de-
cided it is best to work in harmony
with the major leagues. He made no
announcement as to the methods to be
followed in bringing the subject before
the American and National league rep
resentatives. Among other things, the
new agreement would mean the re-es-
tablishment of the drafts and optional
agreements.
A general revision of the salary
limits in the minor leagues was made.
The class A. A. clubs were given per-
mission to increase their monthly limit
to $4,000, an increase of $1,000 while
other leagues were granted proper
tional increases.
j. Ewing Of Oakland, Calf, was
elected vice. president of the national
| association to succeed A. T. Baum of
! San Francisco, retired. Mr.. Ewing
was also named a class A. A. represen-
| tative on the arbitration board to sue
coed Mr. Baum.

LET CONTRACT FOR
CONSTRUCTION WORK
ON SHRINE TEMPLE

A. G. Hulett, ilustrious potentate and
chairman of the building committee of
Ell Zaribah temple of the Mystic
Shrine, let the contract yesterday to
Clinton Campbell for the excavation,
basement, walls. and piers of the new
Shrine Temple on North Central ave-
nue., and work is expected to start
before the end of the week.
Lescher and Kibbey are the archi
tects for the new building, and the
structure they have designed is Of
great beauty and certain to add i'm
mensely to the dignity and grace of
the city.
There are at the present time 1900
members of Ell Zaribah Temple in
Arizona, and the activity which is
now being manifested in the Shrine is
only one form of the general activity
in Masonry throughout the state.
Imperial Potentate Freeland Ken
bricks of Philadelphia is expected to
come to Phoenix in January, in the
course of a visit to the Pacific coast
temples, and the local temple is ar
ranging for a novel desert ceremony
on the decision of his visit. Mr.. Ken
bricks is one of the three highest
ranking officials of masonry, and a
finished artist in ceremonial work, SO
it is expected that the local mobiles will
| receive his heartiest cooperation in
their undertaking.

NOT A CASE Of FLU
IN CITY OR COUNTY

There is not one case of influenza
in either the city or county, is the
joint statement made last night by DIR.
Harry Carson, county physician, and
DR.. II. X. Beauchamp, city physician.
The statement was made to allay
any fears as the result of rumors that
a number of cases of influenza were
now in existance in this community.
There was a misunderstanding among
some people as to the cause of the
death of Edward ]. Doheney, of Hyder
Brothers, several days ago. Doheney
died Of meningitis, said DIR. Carson.
and not of influenza. He suffered an
attack of Spanish influenza last win
ter. It left him weak but there was
not a return of the disease prior to
his being afflicted with meningitis.
DIR. Carson saying that it was not fair
to the community to connect influenza
in any way with his death.
Health throughout the county and
city is normal, both physicians state.
The usual run of "colds" is current but
these colds are not of the influenza
type and should cause no fear.
