Editors Chicago Tribune:
Our citizens are agitating the question Of
building first class woolen mill, and rs your
widely circulated journal has ever shown m
interest in Western manufactures, send the
following communication, hoping It may at
tract the attention Of some ono wishing 10
embark In the business. It has been stated
By one who las the means Of knowing, that
within circle Of fifteen miles surrounding
Iacoo, there are twenty thousand shtep.
With q country unsurpassed in agricultural
resources, and as densely populated as anF
portion Of the State, with our hills filled with
coal, and IN abundance Of pure water, there
is not 20 much as carding machine within
tlfty miles. The wool grown here Is bonsht
BY the merchant, who sells 1t to the wool bro
ker, who dispotcs Of 1t 10 the manufacturer,
who sends It a thonsand miles distant to be
made into cloth. after which It Is disposed Of
to the jobbcr, who sells It to the retailer, by
whom 1t Is brought West and returned to the
producer. Here 1t pas6ts through five differ
cnt hands, paying to each one profit, Is
transported two thousand miles, and comes
back to the WOOL grower, when It could havo
been manufactured at home ut less cost than
abroad, as VIC will show.
Assuming steam to be the motive power,
