PRESCOTT Journal-M Miner, Feb. 25.)
James Forepaugh, hunter and trap
per, who was in Prescott about two
months ago, is getting rich quick by
the novel route of killing skunks, ac-
cording to a report given yesterday
by George E. Darlington, a mining
operator from the Date Creek range
The latter stated that Forepaugh to
date had captured 796 of the skunk
family in traps of his own invention,
and the entire lot had been expressed
to an Omaha furrier, the pelts aver
aging at least $3.50 each.
The sink of Date creek was the
field worked by Forepaughs and only
a limited number of foxes were in
the cleanup. Mr. harrington stated
that perfumed bait was used by the
hunter. The dog responded to this
bait, but the coyote, the lion and the
lobo wolf would keep away from the
scene.
The interesting part of this big
he termed "first aid" dope to treat
roundup was in preparing the pelts
for shipment, Forepaugh having what
each pelt, making the fleece soft and
oliables and rendering the hide easy
to preserve.

NEWS AND PRICES
WALL Street

Stock Exchange price swings to-
day were so narrow that but few Of
the floor traders had the courage TO
attempt to scalp a pront. Commits
sion house business was practically
at a standstill. The Volume Of trad.
ing was approximately the same as
that OF yesterday. which was the
lightest Of the year.
The bulk Of the days business was
done in tho first hour. Because OF the
unexpected cut in Chicago and North
westerns dividend, announced yes
terday. bearish professionals sold the
leading railroad stocks and circulated
reports that additional important
railway dividend reductions will soon
be announced However, no particu-
lar companies were mentioned and
the rumorB were so vague that they
failed to receive much attention. Out
side selling OF the rails was not in
ducCd, and the raid soon ended. After
showing fractional recessions the
railroad list crept up to around last
nights final figures. Reading con-
tinued In good demand on expecta-

The Republican Convention at Chi
cago attracted much more attention
than the narrow stock market fiuctu-
ations. Definite indications as TO who
will receive the nomination were
eagerly awaited. A large number OF
big market operators, man who were
10 argely responsible for the recent bull
boom and the subsequent down
swing are on the ground and II Low
den, Knox or some other so-called
conservative Is nominated Il Is antici-
pated that Chicago wires will be kept
busy carrying buying orders.
These expectations are entertained
despite the fact that money conditions
are decidedly adverse TO a bull price
swing at this time. Time money Is
again almost unObtainable and call
rates to-day rose TO 8 per cent. One
factor back OF the present stringency
is that banks are making preparations
for June 10 tax payments. But bank
ers admit that really easy money con-
ditions win not prevail until the Fede-
raj Reserve Bank Is able to force an
important reduction in the amount OF
commercial borrowings.

only in the concerns VINO are using
the canal TO its utmost advantage, but
on the part OF other investors when
these few elements are fully devel-
Oped But somehow, some way, just
as the railroads did everything to
discourage the canal development,
just so to-day It is practically i'm
possible for those in power to secure
any cooperative scheme or inter-
change of freight that will settle the
matter once and for all and thus in
vite full development
One mistake has been made In the
building Of the canal. The height Of
the bridges is but Is 1-2 feet and this
admits naturally OF only certain
styles OF boats.
The present EFFORT In getting the
boats from the Federal Government
for the state and the seeming lack OF
development during the Federal con-
trOl of the canal are described by Mr..
Walsh as follows;
During the 1918 season OF naviga-
ton the canal barges operated by the
Railroad Administration carried but
IS per cent. OF the total canal ton
mage. In 1919, Notwithstanding the
Railroad Administration had in SER
vice fifty-seven new barges OF total
cargo capacity OF perhaps 2S,50O tons,
they carried, during the entire season,
only 194,352 TONS or less than l6 per
cent. OF the total tonnage.
while the total canal traffic in
creased per cent, that portion
transported by the Government SER
vice decreased per cent Such a
record, therefore, in my Judgment,
is not indicative Of the ability of
the Federal canal service to aid in
Nt1VR 90 IN the
waterways
"On the contrary, I believe that
the operation Of Government barges
carrying cargo that otherwise would
be transported by independent opera
tors detracts from the ability of
the Independent operators, who are
striving earnestly and diligently to
build up traffic, to expand their GER
vice, enhance their revenues and add
new equipment TO their plants.
''The task OF restoring traffic to
the waterways Is a difficult one al
best, and nothing must be permitted
TO stand in the way OF its progress
The first requisite in the undertak-
ing is the formation Of many strongly
financed, well-equipped carriers.
1T ind there are men who look with
favor on canal transportation project!
and are eager to engage in the baisl
ness under certain conditions, anS
one of tNe controlling conditions il
that Federal utilization, control AIT
jurisdiction Of the waterways be dis
continued. Few, II any. shipping mel
are willing TO compete with a subsI
died Federal canal service that ope

assumes no obligation TO produce I
d. profit from its operations.

Ing Federal inhuence.
Transportation legislation pending
in Congress. however, does not est15-
lish definitely the status OF the In
land waterways on which the Cover =
ment has operated barges and n is
proposed to transfer the Governments
inland waterway activities from the
Railroad Administration TO the United
States Shipping Board, to be dealt
with by the Shipping Board under t7s
provisions of the Shipping Act Of 1916.
"If, in this summer yJthe Government
should continue it's canal operations
through the agency Of the Shipping
Board. the situation would be uu-
changed.
"There stiM would remaln in op-
Grafton a Governmentally subsidized
transportation service with which
private enterprise is reluctant TO
compete, in fact, with which it de-
cllnes to attempt to compete.
Il do not understand that the Ship
ping Board Is authorized under the
Shipping Act to operate vessels or
barges IL controls, but must permit
OF their purchase, lease or charter
when persons or corporations came
forward with a proposition that sat
isfied the terms and conditions of the
purchase, lease or charter prescribed
by the Shipping Board.
III, therefore, pending legislation
will be the means OF terminating the
Federal Governments activities OF
the New York waterways and Of re-
leasing Government barge equipment
for private operation, the problem
confronting the state is solved.
''On the other hand, II the measure
now before Congress does not have
such effect, 1 urge the imperative
necessity of the introduction in
Congress and early passage Of legis-
lation that will rid the waterways OF
the state Of the destructive Govern
mental operation.

panies who may furnish n common
carrier service, have been at great
pains to point out to the larger man.
