BATTLES:
1t is generally supposed that coming
events cast shadow in advance. If So
the ol-growers of this country have
reason to be thankful that they voted
for Cleveland and free wool.
Under high protection prices of woods
have been declining for thirty years
They were the lowest ever known on
last election day, November s. when
the sheep raiscrs cut loose from their
old allies and advisors. the political
wool growers. and wisely determined
to try the opposite policy.
For two months prices remained sta
uonary. On January 5. 1898. when
prices were beginning to stiffen little.
Ohio X was quoted at ~ To 26il cents;
Ohio \ and above at 9. to 2s: Michigan

Ohio No I combing ut - to IS. Since
then prices have been getting firsner
and prospects brighter On January
26, the American Wool ard Cotton Re-
porter said in its Boston report:
''Since the nth the market has
evinced even more activity than during
the Immediately preceding week; per-
haps Australian has led Nearly all
new woods that have arrived have been
sold, and the bulk of the old Fleeces
have manifested undiminished strength
since last writing: stocks are very small
and the demand for them has been ex-
ceptionally active Holders of NX Ohio
will hear of nothing less than soc; one
cannot buy No / combing under SIC; of
fine Ohio delaiue nothing can be oh
tanned for less than $50.
Southern wool is largely cleaned
out, Georgia steady and firm at market
qotations Texas and California woods
are in fair request, the former indeed
in very good demand.
The advance in fieeces has had the
effect to harden territories and brace
them up
Good woods are especially firm, and
the trade will be. doubtless, wise
enough to hold the market at the pres
ent prices
In brief il may be said of the market
during the week under review. that il
is very strong. that wool of all kinds is
in good, firm position"
And yet Judge Lawrence. the chief of
political wool growers and the pilot
who has almost wrecked the WOOL
growing industry of this country while
steering ii straight against the jagged
rocks of high protection. says that IL
free wool comes he believes in ''waging
a war of political determination against
those who would extermmate our
sheep" Who will SIGHT his battles?

There is certain yachtsman who
loves a joke. especially one of a prac-
teal kind. He is rich and can there
fore indulge this weakness with less
fear OF the consequences than most
people would have. Last year he made
his headquarters at one Of the hotels
on the Jersey coast, taking frequent
cruises on his schooner yacht Being
liberal with his money. he was the

proprietor put up with his cccentrici.
ties rather than lose his valuable
patronage. One day in August the
yachtsman said to the hotel-keeper:
Your servants have 70 work pretty
hard. don't thcy?"
We'll. yes was the hesitating re-
ply.
They seem very faithful. and !
think they deserve little rest
YES" said the hotel man, wonder

i've been thinking that it would do
them lots OF good to have sail on my

they haven't time to go on such a trip"
'ics, they have. They can go di-
rectly after luncheon and ge. back in
time to cook dinner
You would be SIRE to bring them
back in two or three hours?'
Certainly; you needn't worry about
that"
Consent was given. and the guest in
vitcd all the servants for an after
Moons cruise. They accepted the offer
eagerly. The next day was named for
the time. Luncheon was hurried
through with. and the start was made
without washing the dishes. The
yacht was of good size, so that there
was room for everyone. All the en-
ployes of the hotel went. except the
clerks. The cooks and their helpers,
the walters, hall boys. baggage hand

on their best bibs and fuckers for an

il was all right After an hour or

time the guests were in fine state 81

people went into the kitchen, washed
