SEEKING
TO BUY CATTLE
In THIS AREA

Coming with a view Of buying cat
tie, Walter Spradley, of Hereford,
Texas, who shipped the large consign-
ment CT cattle from Escada, Mexico in
December, is back in Douglas and vi
cinity and has hopes that he will put
through a deal that will get him an
ether large shipment within the next
few days. Mr. Spradley is engaged in
the stock business in a large way and
keeps in close touch with the markets
and it is his belief that there is rea-
scnably good outlook for at least an
ether yea:' of good prices for the stock
men but he says that he is not so
canguine about the future if one goes
into it farther than a year.
Cattle prices ought to be continued
at present levels indefinitely" said the
Texan, "but some times it looks like
that might not happen Stockmen had
a long period of hard times and now
that things are coming their way
again, it ought to be fair for it to
continue so that they may have
reasonable share of what we term
prosperity They have been paying
their debts and have at last come to
position where, if prices firmed and
held as they now are, the stockmen
would get into strong position finan
cially.
"There is no industry that is en-
titled to larger share of prosperity
than those who grow the necessaries
of life and meats are in that line.
There is no line that is entitled to any
fairer consideration than the cattle
business. 1t carries the hazard of
stock disease and dozen and .one
other things SO that there is q just
ground for claiming a good margin of
profit on the animal sent to the
SHAMELESS If the present prices were
to prevail--and it is not at all impos-
sible that they may, only at times I
doubt if they will-then those who are
engaged in stock raising in the south J
west will be occupying q pleasant place
in the business picture for the last
two or three years have been fairly
good"
Spradley says he likes Arizona. Give
been travelling through this state for
some years now, from time to time,
and this is one of the sections of the
United. States that always looks good
to me- think have never seen any
section that no universally appears to !
be prosperous and where the towns
seem to be busy in their several lines"

of the faculties that would enable
us to enjoy the life to come the
more. The speaker called attention
John in vision saw some standing
before the throne of God With palms
in hand dressed in robes of white
but did not recognize them, but
when the angel said, "These are they
that have come up through great
tribulation have washed their robes
and made them white in the blood
of the Lamb" indicating that thev
were the spirits of the martyrs,
John then recognized them, for he
had preached to some of them on
this earth. But the change was so
great he at first did net recognize
them.
"The spiritual relationship" said
DR.. Violette, 'is greater than the
family relationship. The latter will
end at death for we who are obedient
to God will be children of God"
He told an interesting story of
LaFayette's return to America AZ
years after he had fought beside
Washington for American liberty,
coming back in old age upon the
invitation of congress. He told how
LaFayette looked through glasses a
long distance before reaching the
New York harbor and saw how the
city was decorated, how the reception
committee approached them at sea.
He wondered what it was all about
when the vice president said it was
meant for him.
eff men make such a welcome for
an honored one, / wonder what must
have been the reception made in
heaven when such characters as
Livingston and Frances Willard
reached their heavenly home, said
DR. Violette

THEY LIKE HIS
QUESTIONS And
ANSWER PERIOD

Many favorable comments on the
first part of the service were heard
last night at the Christian churcls
when DR.. E. E. Violette answered
a number of interesting questions
handed in by different individuals.
Some said that that part of the
service itself was worth going a
long distance to hear Another man
was added to the membership,
making a total of so recruits to date
"Shal We Know Each Other After
Death?" was DR.. Violette'S subject.
suggested by the 18th and 18th
chapters of I Corinthians. The
evangelist said that there are so
many things in this life to depress
one and SO many difficulties We
have to face, it Is profitable for us
and fitting that we talk over to-
gether things that might mellow our
hearts and make us more considerate
and kind to one another. He said
that a man once told him that he
didn't have any sentiment "But
sentiment" said pr: Violette, 'is the
most powerful thing in the world to
move one to action I pity the wife
of one who has nc sentiment"
DR.. Violette said t1lao only one
friend understood 4 Jesus before Hi,
death. That even His disciples did
not understand him. When Lazarus
died, Martha who worried about many
things met Jesus but Jesus had to
teach her And when she called for
Mary Jesus gdid not have to teach
her about the resurrection for she
understood Him. He only had to
comfort her. Martha got his teach
ing, Mary got his tears.
"In travelling, said DR.. Vioiette,
"n1y wife and I in 10 countries,
meeting all classes and races and
tribes Of people, found three doctrines
well fixed in their minds.
"First, belief in a supreme being;
second belief in future life; third,
belief in future recognition, and this
is my first argument that we shall
know each other after death. When
you take off all the roughness of
all peoples and tribes and all sensual
ity you will find in the depths of
their. souls these three natural in
stincts or convictions, and God who
has satisfied all the longings of men
will not disappoint us in these which
mean most to us"
The evangelist second argument
was that if death ends all, then
the memory Of loved ones would die
with them, He indicated that our
faculties vSuld be more acute and
powerful after death than they are
now, and that memory would be one
