The way for this is clear. We

STORY OF THE
OLD IRON DOG
OF PHOENIX

IHlS is Tie SIOIy VI dill lIOH uOS
that now historic iron dog that
stood vigil for generations in front
of Talbot and Hubbard'S hardware
store in olden Phoenix This par
ticular dog became business SYM
Dol or land mark known far and
wide throughout the Salt River
Valley, for the store in front of
which it stood did heavy and
lucrative business for many dec
AIDES in the days of the pioneers.
Both Talbot and Hubbard, who
started the hardware business and
brouht the iron dog to Phoenix,
have long since gone to eternal
rest, but. the iron dog is still on
watch in Phoenix in the hands
of other masters, newcomers to
the capital city.
- 1t was in the early part of 1888
that Walter Talbot and Charlie
Hubbard came. to Phoenix and,
after looking over the town, they
decided to open hardware store
here. They first started business
in rooms = facing Center street
IN the old Commercial Hotel
building (now the Hotel Luhrs),
which was at that time owned and
managed by George Luhrs, an
early-day blacksmith and wheel
right of Wickenburg and, later of
Phoenix. The coming of the hard
ware men to Phoenix was re-
corded as follows in the Phoenix
Herald of April II, 1888:
"The rooms on the north side
of the Commercial Hotel are un-
dergoing a rapid change in order
to fit them for the large stock
Of hardware with which Messrs.
Talbot and Hubbard will open
business in few days. Four car
loads of the stock have already
arrived"
From the Commercial Hotel 10
cation, Talbot and Hubbard moved
to a place on the south side of
Washington, not far to the east
of Center street, where they re-
manned for a great many years
This last location stood on ground
once occupied by the county court
house = an adobe structure =
which after being abandoned as
public building by the county,
had been sold to w. Tom Smith,
who demolished the old adobe and
built thereon a couple of brick
store rooms.
Immediately to the west of Tai
bot and Hubbard was located the
business place of D. H. Burtis, tin
smith and plumber. The fronts
of the two stores were much alike
and customers were continually
lnistaking one business place for
the other. Finally, daughter of
Mr. Talbot suggested some distinc-
tive business landmark for the
hardware store and proposed the
iron dog, which was eventually
chosen.
It seems that on the ancient
coat-of-arms of the Talbot family
there appears a canine figure and
that fact bore heavily in favor
of the iron dog. Thus the iron
dog was brought to Phoenix and
Z thereafter stood guard = year af-
ter year = during each business
day, Just in front of the main en-

trance to Talbot and Hubbard's S
store, always looking north =
across Washington Street =. at
Whiskey Row. He was purchased
from an eastern firm by means
of catalogue and came to Phoe-
nix by freight in 1892.
When the iron dog reached his
destination Talbot and Hub
bard's hardware store = he was
placed in charge of Billy Heflin,
then a young employee of that
firm, and Billy was the one who =
for the first time - wheeled the
iron dog to his new station in
front of the store. For more than
thirty years thereafter he per-
formed the same task each morn
ing.
Billy Heflin, now residing in
Glendale, Arizona, is a native son
of the golden west, having been
born in California in 1873. He
came to Phoenix in 1889, and dur
ing the first. summer and winter
worked for John Y. T. Smith, ain
early merchant and miller of the
Salt River Valley. In the sum-
mer of 1890 he drove one of the
cid mule-draWn street cars on
Washington Street and, in the fall
of that same year, was hired by
Talbot and Hubbard's hardware
store, where he remained until
1923.
The iron dog is, apparently, of
the sturdy, courageous mastiff
type, and natural alertness and
sagacity have been carefully pre-
served in the minely nodded fl
CURE In olden days when the home
of the iron dog was on Washing
ton street, many little tot, pass
ing by, begged his fond mamma to
lift him or her up on the broad,
unbending back of the iron dog,
and thus enjoyed for a few mo-
ments a childist - but not soon
forgotten = thrill.
The Indians of the nearby reser-
vation never referred to this pion-
eer hardware store at Talbot and
Hubbard's, but as "The Dog Stand
ing Store"
When Talbot and Hubbard's
hardware establishment went out
Of business in 1929, the stock on
hand was sold to the Phoenix
Hardware Trading Company,
whose place of business was To-
Gated on Washington Street oppo-
site the Boston Store. To this new
location the iron dog was taken
along with the purchased stock,
and he stood a silent, patient SEN
tinel at this business place for
some little time. Then some boys
climbing on his broad back =
broke in some way the sturdy iron
tail. The iron dog was then sent
by the hardware men to welding
shop, where the tail was welded to
the body, and it appears today as
strong and durable as ever. The
iron dog has now finally come to
rest in the hands of it's present
owners = Hicks Furniture and
Hardware Company - where 1t
attracts much attention from
young and old.

Testimony Completed
In Times-Picayune
Antitrust Case
BY the Assoeiatsd Press

NEW ORLEANS. May lS.-Afte,
three weeks testimony, trial o1
the Governments civil antitrust
suit against the Times -Picayune
Publishing Co., is ended but the
judges decision will not be made
until late summer.
The last witness testified yester-
day but oral argument was de-
ferred until July IL.
Attorney General McGrath filed
the suit in Federal Court here
June IA against the publishers OF
the combination morning Times
Picayune and afternoon New Or
leans States. But the decision
could affect 176 other publishers
who publish morning and after
noon combination newspapers.
Whatever decision is made by
Judge Herbert Christenberry, the
losing side is almost certain to
appeal to the Supreme Court.
The Government centered its
attack on the Times-Picayune
Publishing Co.'S practice of requir-
ing national and classified adver-
tisers to buy space in the morning
Times-Picayune and afternoon
States as a unit. Advertisers are
not permitted to run ads in either
paper separately.
Justice Department attorneys
maintained this practice-known
as a forced combination-violated
antitrust laws.
