H. Frohmiller 11 Norh San Francisco MAYO BROTHERS MAY BUILD SANATORIUM IN COCHISE CO. There has been a consistent lumor during the past few weeks that Mayo Brothers, world-famed surgeons and healers of human ills, are contemplating the erection of a modern san- itarium in this district. According to the rumor representatives of this famous institution spent several days in this city some time ago and their report as to the local situation was favorable. That Tombstone possesses the climatic conditions for an enterprise of this nature, is a widely known fact, and it is understood that Mayo Brothers hae contemplated an investigation for several years past, even before the world war.

Every year thousands of patients flock to Mayo Brothers, suffering from ailments that can be benefited, if not completely cured, by the wonderful climate that is Tombstone's most widely recognized and heretofore fcomewhat ignored natural resource. The report of the investigation by representatives of Mayo Brothers may well be taken as a forcwoid that Tombstone's invigorating and unexcelled all-year-round climate will be made a boon to hundreds if not trou-aands of ailing people.

G. Randall, prominent Florence physician, by a jury in superior court at Floiencc Sunday. The jury recommended life imprisonment. Judge Joseph Jenckes of Phoenix, who piesided at the trial, set December 21 for passing sentence. Defense attorneys indicated they would ask for a new trial at the time.

Dr. Randall was shot and killed August GO in the apartment of Miss Encinas, a nurse, who had previously been emplojcd by him. Miss Encinas surrendered to the sheriff immediately afterward. The defendant testified during her trial that she shot in self defense after Dr. Randall had offeied her money for some "letters," called her "vile names," and threatened to kill her.

STANDARDS Oil, COMPANY -ia CATTLEMEN OF STATE SAY THAT STOCKYARD LOWERS THE MARKET Cattlemen of Arizona are experienc ing the most unsettled conditions of cattle markets that have been known for many years. The unccitainty of market prices for cattle coming from feed lots and ranges of our state seems due to a very great extent to the present chaotic condition of the Los Angeles stock yards. The Union Stock Yards in Los An geles have been direct cause for holding back several cattle buyers who heretofore have worked throughout this state and as a result not nearly so many cattle have moved from our ranges as in years back.

Since the opening of the stock yards November 1, hundreds of head of cattle have moved into Los Angeles from Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Montana that have formerly gone to eastern pens. These cattle are thrown on the open market in the coast city and in many instances have sold for a groat sacrifice being unable to move elsewhere. This condition added to that of holding back buyers from adjacent states to California has resultel in fewer tattle being sold throughout Arizona than for several seasons previous. It directly forces Arizona cattle to compete against the everemely heavy steers and cows from those northwest and Rocky mountain states. At present good heavy beef steers are selling from cents to 7 cents per pound in Los Angeles whereas the same steers bought on the ranges and taken to plants in San Francisco will cost buyers from 7 cents to 8 cents laid down in the Bay city.

This materially reflects a much weaker market in Los Angeles today over that of the prices paid by San Francisco buyers. Many shipments of cattle have been forced to feed several days in Los Angeles before a buyer makes a bid on them and this expense of care is bourn by the owners who ship to that market. Furthermore, the freight charges and the shrinkage as well as the feed duiing transit must be met by the owner, this coupled with the delay at the yards in hiding a buyer makes a much reduced market price for cattle in Los Angeles. Even after a buyer is found the owner must pay a very high commission for the sale. It is a deplorable condition indeed and cattlemen not only in California but over the ranges of Arizona are feeling the heavy effects of the depressed conditions.

The stock yards thusfar aie proving no salvation whatsoever to the cattlemen of this state and it will be interesting to watch the progress of those yards upon the cattle industry of the entire southwest. The cattle growers are loathe to give up the present fair system of selling their herds at the ranches where "cutbacks" can then be left at home and never be shipped if not sold. The buyers thus handle the shipping as the cattle leave the ranges, and the cattleman himself is in this way not forced to play the other man's game on the open maiket. From a feeder standpoint which is the bulk of the cattle Arizona supplies California the stock yards so tar prove of not value whatsoever and the same respect as on fat cattle aie depressed conditions materially. Arizona cattlemen should watch constantly the progress made by the union yards in Los Angeles and the effects they are bringing about California receives piactically all of Arizona cattle and if the Los Angeles yards continue to prove a hindcrance the cattlemen should do all within their power to keep away from that system of marketing.

Should they prove a success, of course cattlemen will welcome the change of conditions. BIRTHS EXCEED DEATHS IN STATE FIRST HALF OF 1922 SAYS LATE HEALTH REPORT The number of births in the state during the first six months of the year 1922 exceeded the number of deaths for tho same period by 540, according to reports compiled by the state health board and contained in the October bulletin of the department, 'wnich has jus.t been leceived fiom the printers.

He was taken to Pir-tlesville, where he lived for 12 hours. Fimbrcs had been hunting rabbits and had shot one as it was bolting down hole, into which the hunter thrust his arm. Within was the snake.

The rancher was 43 years old and left a wifo and four small children, who at the time were on a visit to Miami. Uncxploded shells, bombs, and similar war souvenirs to the number of 6,600 have been picked up in Paris streets since the beginning of this year.

A heathen meant originally a dweller on a heath GOVERNOR-ELECT HUNT CLAIMS HIS STAND ON RIVER PACT UNCHANGED Governor-elect George W. P.

Hunt of Arizona, who conferred with Sec retary of Commerce Hoover on the Colorado River compact, entered into by the seven river basin states at Santa Fe, N. last month, an nounced that his "position was unchanged" as a result of the conference. During the hearings of the Colorado River commission at Santa Fc, Governor-elect Hunt sent a telegram to Mr. Hoover, as chairman of the commission, setting forth his opinion that Arizona could not ratify a compact for at least two years, due to the lack of adequate surveys and engineering data in regard to the state's irrigation possibilities. The pact must be ratified by the legislatures of all seven states as well as congress before it will become effective.

In stating that his position was "un changed," Mr. Hunt offered no comment or elaboration of his prevoiusly expressed views. Secretary Hoover also held conferences with groups of members of the Arizona state legislature and members-elect of the sixth legislature, before which the compact will be taken for ratification. "The Colorado river compact, which has reached the stage of ratification or rejection by the legislatures of seven states involved, unquestionably is the greatest single asset in undeveloped resources in America," Mr. Hoover declared in an address at a mass meeting in Phoenix.

"What is done with it now will affect not only our lives, but the lives of our children's children. Ours is a responsibility which seldom falls to the lot of any one generation." o- TEN AIRPLANES HUNTING FOR LOST AVIATORS IN MEXICO Ten airplanes in command of Cap tain Erwin left Nogales Monday to pcnetiate into Mexico in search for the missing aviators, Colonel Francis Marshall and Lieutenant C.
