Trade among wholesalers and jobbers

CRUMP VICTIM IN
BOYD HEIGHTS SPILL

William P. Crump, hay and grain
and produce dealer of Ray, while re-
turning from Phoenix accompanied by
his two children, had a bad spill on
Boyd Heights, the middle of the week.
Mr.. Crump was driving a Ford truck
and a piece Clipped off the axle which
threw the gears in neutral. The car
was going down hill, and, as he had
no brake, the momentum became
greater, so, to avoid all the danger he
could, Mr.. Crump turned the car into
the nearest fence, and, just as he hit
the fence, one Of the tires blew up,
which caused the car to overturn. The
occupants were thrown from the car
but none was seriously injured.

HERRERA WILLIAMS
GO HERE. april e
Will Be HOT One

Arrangements have been completed
to bring Battling Herrera of Bisbee
and Rufus Williams of Phoenix to
Ray for ten-round bout on the 23rd
of this month
Williams has won a wide reputation
for the number of victories he has
won via the ''K. O." route, and is con-
fident he can put the aggressive little
Mexican away in short order.
On the other hand, Herrera's ad-
mirers predict an easy victory for
their man and point with pride to a
long string of victories he has to his
credit, and though they admit the col
ored boy is a clever boxer, they are
depending on Herrera's speed and
punch to bring home the bacon.
Three cracking preliminaries, fea-
turing some of the best Toys of Ray
and Superior, and battle royal will
be included on the fight card.
The bouts will be staged at the Jua,
rez theater in Sonora and tickets are

GAS PRICE IS
DUE TO LACK
OF CRUDE OIL

The advance in the price of gaso-
line in the last year amounts to
about 1870. Large oil marketing con-
Germs report increase in operating ex-
penses in last year of more than $3.50.
Average price of high grade crude oil
has advanced at least 500. Besides
increased costs, which are general
throughout oil industry, large refin-
ers and marketers of gasoline on At
lantic coast have had to meet the
Mexican situation. Some of refineries
operated prior to Carranza order
shutting down wells in Mexico on as
much as $3.50 Mexican oil. Percent
age of gasoline refined from Mexican
oil goes a great way toward meeting
domestic consumption and export
Threatened scarcity. Of Mexican crude

tion of drilling by large operators is

Standard Oil Company of California
answering inquiry of railroad COM
mission, states advance of cents a
gallon in Pacific Coast gasoline price
is due to necessity of establishing
differential to cover transportation Of
gasoline from San Francisco to New
York, amounting to Z cents by rail
and cents by water, to prevent job

Increase in the demand for refined
oil products is reflected in the re-
ports of the Standard Oil refining
companies that have issued their 1919
statements. Standard Oil Co. of In
diana, the largest manufacturer of
gasoline in the country, showed sur
plus of more than $105,000,000 at the
end of 1919, indicating net earnings

SHERIFF HALLS
men RAID Still
At SONORATOWN

J. J. Haywood, Martin Holden and
Chief Deputy E. E. Thurman, repre-
senting Sheriff Halls office, proceed
ed to Sonora last Saturday, and after
watching the offenders for almost
twenty-four hours, lay siege to the
outfit for distilling whiskey.
The culprits and the paraphernalia
were taken into custody and later TAX
en- into Phoenix for hearing before
the federal officers. Federal Officers
w. T. Webb and w. A. Benson, from
Phoenix, were in town Sunday and
took the two prisoners back with them
via automobile.
The outfit was one of the hest that
has been captured and the product
was of very nigh proof.
The still was made by taking a
twenty gallon milk can and soldering
sleeve into the opening at the top.
To this sleeve pipe, graduating in
size from three inches to about half
an inch at the other end, was soldered.
The coil was then connected to this
so that the condensate could be
formed while the steam from the boil
ing mash was going through the cop
per coil, which was cooled by being
submerged.
The Republican in carrying the arti-
Gle in regard to the capture gave all
the credit to the federal officers,
when, as matter of fact, they did not
even know of it until Messrs. Webb
and Benson arrived in Ray, they he
ing here on other business. Of course,
as they were on the ground, it was a
saving of expenses to have them take
the prisoners to Phoenix, which was
done via automobile Sunday after
noon.
The deputies of Sheriff Hall in Ray
are entitled to full credit for this cap
ture, and while the Republican gave
the credit to the federal officers, af-
ter it was called to their attention,
they corrected the statement in the
next issue.

these causes would have been suffi-

is now in the hands of Flame Delhi
asking if he would care to come back
to the old stamping grounds in the
desert, where the warrior of many
battles on the Ray diamond will be
pleasantly recalled as having walloped
most of the teams in this section, with
the aid of the balance of the team,
putting Ray in the lead almost as a
professional city club
Delhi is in California and there is
no assurance yet that he, or for that
matter any Of the above named ex-
cellent players will return to Ray, hut
should they come, they will find
hearty greeting, and we know that
they have improved and their love for
Ray would naturally make them play
that much harder just for old-times'
sake.
American Legion Helps
Mr.. AL Earl of the Los Angeles
branch of the Spaulding compan ny is
a personal friend of Doc Hutton's and
he is looking after the interest of Ray
and trying to secure the best there is
to be obtained and most likely will be
able to land us some excellent play
ers.
Another feature that will be Of
much interest is the fact that the
boys Of the American Legion will give
a dance in order to assist the club in
raising funds for the support of the
team. The dance will be given for
the express purpose of raising this
money and every one interested in
the game should remember the dance
and help along ty purchasing ticket,
whether they go or not
You need not worry about your
money not being properly spent Doc
will make a good manager. and will
account for all funds received and dis
bursed so if any are holding back on
that account. let their little worries
disappear and permit them to devote
their attention to the real need of
help from each person interested in
the game in Ray.
Let all get together now and make
the baseball season one of the best
we have had. Doc Hutton has worked
hard and faithfully and has shown
his public spirit by overcoming many
obstacles that 1--WE arisen, and now
the fans and lovers of the national
game should get Lusy and support
the team. They'll make good Will
you?
