Fine Wool BusInes in a Nutshell.

Er"ia Letter by Theodore W Justice
The main cost of raising wool in foreign
countries where the sheep Craze over the
public domain is the wages of the hel der.
In tho Argentine Republic this quality Of
labor receives three Spanish dollars pei
month. In Montana, where the sheep also
stszs ON the pnbio domain, he wages OF
the herler, which is also the main cost .oi
growing VIC ol there, is $40 per month, as
against So in Sonth America. This is an
increase in the cost Of growing American
woJl, otherwise under simil Al conditions. of
1900 per cent. The freight on woel from
Buenos Ayres to New York by sailing vessel
is only one-quaTter cent per pound, while
tAe cheapest freight from Montana is two
cents per pound to the same market Here
is an increase to tsc Montana grower in the
cost of transportation OF 100 per cent. over
the cost to the South American grower
W tn this d'htressa against the American
grower on the fee raogc, how much mcre
must be tSc cost Il Iaisiug wooi on farms
worth $50 to SO er acre"

of the Democratic party in regard TO tax re-
duction and tariff revision as enunciated in
their nRtioBai platform. Every citizen of
the United States who expects to vote next
November should read this bill carefully

posits policy of tie Republicans as generall,
expressed in their National platform, and
as yet without any specific tariff or revenue

voter should study both policies until h,
votes.
There is no prospect of the Mills bill pass.

will probably prefer, as the Republican Re
rresentatises have done, to frame no new
tariff bill, but to let their party go befor,

Meanwhile the people will continue til,
