Voters of Navajo county, meet Mr.
T. c. Hoyt of Snowflake, the latest
entrant in the race for county attor-
ney. Since leaving the forest service
some two years ago Mr.. Hoyt has
maintained law office at Snowflake,
he having been admitted to the bar be-
fore the supreme court of Utah in
1903 He claims to know something
of the duties of county attorney
having served in that capacity in Kane
county on our northern border, where
the state line offered some obstacles to
legal processes and procedure. In
1905 he entered the government SER
vic in an administrative position, but
was soon called to Washington on de-
tail where he was assigned to legal
work in the forestry service of the
department of agriculture. After a
period of investigative work he was
detailed to assist trial attorneys in
the department of justice and the land
office in the preparation and trial of
important land fraud cases and was
specially commended for his work in
that connection
Mr. Hoyt is of the opinion that peo-
pie generally do not appreciate the
Importance of the work of a county

opinion, to be legal advisor of the

Peace With Honor
Is Labor's S Demand

Enemies of organized labor have
learned that organized labor cannot
be destroyed, John l.. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica declared in a Labor day message
made public at Indianapolis last year.
Mr.. Lewis asserted that the last
year had been filled with trials and
vicissitudes for organized labor, due to
a constant and steady attack 'by pow
erful interests and Influences" but
they have learned that the trade union
is a legitimate American institution
and that the American public has CIV
en- it's full approval of the idea.
"OrgariZed labor stands in favor of
peace in industry" he continued. La
Dor desires that peace which comes
with honor and through the applica-
ton of the principles of fairness and
Justice Labor will do it's part to es-
tablish and maintain that kind of
peace.
Let us remember that without or
ganization labor would be helpless to
express itself, or to take it's own part
in the struggle against the forces that
would destroy labor's liberty"

KANSAS CITY STOCK
YARD REPORT
August %, 1924
BY CHAS. M. PIPKIN
Correspondent

Though 10000 cattle arrived today
this supply was 21,000 short of year
ago. The western movement is so
much short of, a year ago that it is
evident that grass and feed conditions
have placed the western producer in a
position to resist a declining market.
Many cattle will be held through the
winter that probably would have
reached market this fall had prices
been higher Hogs broke 10 cents, and
sheep and lambs were weak to 25c
lower
TOday's Receipts
Receipts today were 10000 cattle,
10000 hogs and II 200 sheep compared
with $4,000 cattle, 10000 hogs and
1000 sheep week ago, and 81, 500
cattle, 13,450 hogs and 12,450 sheep a
year ago.
Beef Cattle
A heavy run of fat cattle centered
in Chicago today and that market re-
ported general declines. Here, how
ever, receipts were short of a week
ago, and much smaller than year
ago, and trade was active at fully
steady prices, exceptions higher. Some
prime yerling steers sold up to $11.25.
Other choice steers brough $40 to
$10.5O and good to choice fed steers
sold largely at $8.75 to $9.75. Offer
ings of grass fat cattle showed a wide
difference in quality and sold at $4 to
So, and wintered summer grazed steers
up to $S.75. In some cases cows and
heifers were higher, and the general
market was strong. Veal calves and
bulk were steady.
StOckers and Feeders
Stockers and feeders, except heavy
feeders were in active demand. The
fleshy classes sold slowly but steady.
Several punches of fleshy grass steers
1000 to 100 pounds went into feed
ers hands at $725 to $3.50, or more
than killers offered. Texas stockers
sold up to ST. Stock calves were 25
cents higher.
Opening bids for hogs were 10 cents
lower, but later trade became active at
to 10 cents under last weeks close
Shippers bought freely and packers
were more inclined to follow that
lead The top price was $965, and
bulk of sales 1925 to $500 Packing
sows sold at $8.25 to $3.50, and stock
hogs and pigs 7.25 to $775
Sheep and Lambs
Lambs opened 25 cents lower and
closed 25 to so cents lower. Native
lambs sold largely at 13 to $3.50, and
western lambs $13.25 to $1375 Ewes
brought $5 to $6.25 and wethers to
SITE. Heavy receipts in Chicago and
Omaha sold so cents lower.

Third Party to Harm G.
O. P. Hayden Believes

That La Toilette will damage the re-
publican party great deal more than
he will hurt the democrats in the COM
ing presidential campaign is the belief
of Carl Hayden, democratic represen-
tative from Arizona who, with Mrs.
Hayden, visited in Winslow last
Thursday and Friday on his way home
to Phoenix from the east where he has
been attending to business matters
since the adjournment of congress.
Mr.. Hayden believes that La Toilette
will recruit his vote in states which
are normally republican and that his
candidacy will have little effect in
those states which are normally dem
ocratic. The south will go solidly
democratic, as usual, Mr.. Hayden
thinks, with La Follette's candidacy
causing scarcely a ripple there.
A feeling of hesitancy was prevalent
in political circles in the east until
the speeches of acceptance of the var
ious candidates were published Mr..
Hayden said, politicians not caring to
commit themselves too freely until
sure of the stand taken by all candi-
dates.
Davis strengthened his position a
great deal in his speech of acceptance,
Mr.. Hayden says, and he regards the
democratic candidate as one of the
biggest men in the party and as one
of the best possible men to carry the
democratic party to victory
He regards Bryan as happy choice
for Davis running mate and said that
Bryan also had strengthened his
chance of election by his acceptance
speech.
Mr.. Hayden is ranking democratic
member of the house committee on
world war veterans legislation. While
on the way westward he visited vet
Grams" bureau throughout the country.
Because of the approaching elections,
both state and national, the commit
tee as whole, consisting of 81 mem
bers, cannot visit all hospitals and
veterans bureaus in the country, Mr.
Hayden said, but has divided the ter
ritory, and each member of the COM
mittee is visiting certain hospitals and
agencies. When congress convenes
the members will have a fairly com
prehensive view of the situation, Mr.
Hayden said He had found conditions
fairly satisfactory in the places he Wis
tied, he said.

Arizona Wool Men
Want Tariff Fixed

Harry Embach, Flagstaff, secretary
of the Arizona Wool Growers associa-
tlon, announces that the sheep indus
try in this state has had a prosperous
year and that it is rapidly recovering
from the effects of postwar condi-
tions. Because of the California foot
and mouth disease quarantine, Ari-
zona lambs sold at higher figure
than had been expected and feed con-
ditions during the spring and sum-
mer have been good.
The Arizona wool growers have
gone in for cooperative marketing
and will concentrate all their wool
either in Phoenix, Los Angeles or
Boston, where it will be stored for
sale at the best possible figures. The
fall clip of mohair is being concen-
trated at Phoenix and Mr.. Embach will
be ready to receive bids by Septem-
Der /.
The wool clip this year, Mr.. Embach
says, totals about five million pounds.

Mans Only Labor Power
His Ability to Create

AS all the world knows, the labor
power of a human being is his power
to work. his power to create. That
power is the result of the co-ordina-
ton of the mental and physical forces
of the individual to accomplish par
ticular purpose.
These forces are personal; they are
inseparable from the living body OF
the worker; he can ALLEVIATE them in
no way. The power to work develops
as the mind and the body Of the in
dividual develops and reaches it's high
est efficiency in the period Of fullest
development of the worker and begins
to wane when the physical powers OF
the individual deteriorate with age. Il
ceases altogether with the death OF
the individual.

Printers Led in Work of
Labor Organizations

The printers were the first craft of
anv CONSEQUENCE to extend their or
ganization all over the United States
They established the National Typo
graphical union in 1880 In order to
take in Canada, they established the
international Typographical Union in
1862, being the leader also in this
broader field
The formation of great corporations
and the immense expansion in indus
try which began soon after the Civil
war melted larger labor combinations
than had existed prior to that time.
Some of these formed the National La
Dor Union, established at a convention
in Baltimore in 1885, which entered
politics in 1872 by nominating the La
Dor Reform ticket, putting Charles
O'Connor up for president. It's votes
were few and it attracted no general
attention in the campaign. That broke
up the combination, and labor sOc1e-
ties, as societies, kept out of politics
for the next few years. AS societies
their most extensive participation in
politics was in the congressional cam
paign of 1900.
Starting as local secret society in
Philadelphia in 1869 and holding it's
first general assembly in 1878, the
knights of Labor was the earliest so
ciety which aimed to gather all the
workers of all trades into single
organization. 1t had 100000 members
in 1886, with Terrence V. Powderly as
the head. Then began it's decline and
fall. It's strike on the Gould system
of railways in ST. Louis and the south
west in 1885 it won, but the larger
strike in 1886 on the same roads it
lost From that time onward it grad
ually shrunk in importance.
The American Federation of Labor
rose as the Knights of Labor fell At
a convention in Columbus, Ohio,.. in
1886 the American Federation of La
Dor was formed, and it has gradually
absorbed nine-tenthS of all the labor
organizations of the United States. In
it the several crafts retain their au
tonomy, but are federal for purposes
of cooperation. In recent years the
American Federation of Labor COM
prised 119 national and international
unions and claimed to have 100000
members. The affiliated unions pub
lish 245 weekly or monthly papers de-
voted to the cause of labor.

with special oil counsel and Chairman
Ladd and Senator Walsh and it was
indicated that an indictment would be
asked this week of a grand Jury now
sitting in the District of Columbia.
The conference took place within
few hours after the formal order of
the Senate had been signed by Acting
President Moses and sent to the dis
trict attorney.
Should an indictment he returned,
there would be put squarely up to the
federal courts the question of the au-
thority Of Congress. and Senator Walsh
said that if this We're sustained Sin
clair probably would be hailed before
the bar OF the Senate for contempt and
placed in the custody of the sergeant
alarms until he agreed to answer the
questions put to him.
Today's open session of the commit
tee itself was brief and devoid of sem
sation. NJ. D Thatcher, president of
the First National Bank of Pueblo,
Col, testified to loans of slightly more
than 100000 to Falls cattle company
by the NJ D. T. Thatcher Estate Co.,
and Senator Walsh commented later
that the evidence before the commit
tee shows that Fall has received a to-
tai of $4,000 the source of which has
not been disclosed.
Thatcher told the committee ar
rangements had been made for the es-
tate company to advance 100000 to
the cattle company for improvements.
but that this sum had been increased
by $1,000 through an overdraft, which
was taken care OF in a note.
The only other witness was Anderson

For Me. HOnOrs Thurs.

Biddeford, March PA game to
decide the State championship will
probably be played in Portland
Thursday night between Biddeford
High and Northeast Harbor. Both
teams participated in the Tufts Col

nament Biddeford fans have been
advocating a game between the tro-
ply teams Of eastern Maine ana
western Maine for the State cham
pionship.
Steve White talked over the mat
ter last week with the eastern
Maine CHI; mps and they expressed a
desire for such battle in order to
determine the question Of superior
ity, and establish the championship
of the Pine Tree State in the indoor
sport.
The game will probably draw the
biggest crowd Of the year in Port
land. Biddeford will send a small
army of fans as more interest is be-
ing taken in basketball this season
than heretofore.
