FREE WOOL.

The Democratic House at the last ses-
sion of congress passed bill to put wool
on the free list. II Grover Cleveland
should be elected president and that bill
become law the farmers of our wool
growing states would be badly hurt. Un-
der the Mckinley act the number Of sheen
in the United States increased l. 500, 900 in
q single year. and the wool clip increased
9ooo,oo0 pounds. There are 46 900, 900
sheep now in this country of the value OF
slI7, 900 600. With free wool the farmers
would lose the greater part OF that sum.
and in addition be driven ont Of a business
that now gives employment wholly or in
par. to l, 0oo.000 men.
The Democratic assertion that the
farmer does not get any higher price for
his wool because of the tariff is absurd.
Secured wool. the pure article used by the
manufacturer, of like grade. has for
eleven years averaged 81 cents pound
higher in Philadelphia than in London.
In lSsS, when Cleveland issued his free
trade message, secured wool declined in
the United States SO that the difference in
price, rs compared with London, was only
rs cents per pound. Cleveland's defeat
sent up the price of wool and the value OF
sheep. and If Cleveland is elected the price
at wool and the value Of sheep would come
down with run. The passage OF the
Democratic free wool bill would food this
country with the cheap shoddy goods Of
England. Here are some facts that are 10
the point N this discussion.
