This is indeed strange phenomenon
for the consideration OF national wool
growers associations. Prices OF foreign
woods have declined about 40 per cont,
while prices of domestic woods have ad
vanced about 10 per cent during the
last two months.
In discussing the New York market.
the reporter says: "rhsrs ie consider-
able nibb!ing. but few hasvy bites.
The troubles are that holders are firm in
their visws and not in mood for grant
ing concessions-and they are justified
in being firm" The DryG Goods Ecuno-
mist OF two days later verifies these pre-
dictions. 1t ssya: prices remain firm
and transactions are large but we'll dis
tributed. Domestic woods are receiving
considerable attention and selling we'll.
There has been decided increase in in
quries for foreign woods, with SON @
transactions OF Importance. There is II
feeling of confidence throughout the
trade, and some predict higher values"
The result thus far is in exact accord
with the Democratic claim ana directly
contrary to the predictions of the
National Wool Growers association.
The Ohio prophets met again few days
ago ana passed some direful resolutions,
which, as they are based upon theories
and are contrary to the facts now dem.
onstrated, will have no weight with the
voters this fall. After having deceived

FREE WOOL.

What New York journal Says on That
Butject.
World, Oct. 1: For 20 years we have
been told by the political wool grove RS
of Ohio that high duties on foreig n
wools caused high prices for domestic
wools, and that free wool would punch
the bottom out of prices and ruin our
sheep industry. Well. notwithstanding
that wool was protected from 1896 to
1890 by duties varying from 40 to 60
per cent, prices declined almost con-
stantly, the average decline being about
40 per cent. Since 1890, when McKin-
ley increased duties, the decline has
been unusually rapid and has averaged
bet cen 40 and 80 per cent.
For the first time in 79 years, all
wools are free. Have prices tumbled,
as was prophesied by Delano, Harpster
and Lawrence? The following quota.
tions are from the Wool and Cotton Re

EXIT PRIZE FIGHTING.

The brutal prize fighting exhibitions
are nearly at an end. The numbering
of one of the brutes down in New Or
leans last week, by another brute, be-
fore several thousand brutes who had
gathered there as spectators, sounds
the keynote to the termination of the
disgraceful spectacles. The people
heretofore have protested mildly
against these exhibitions, and while
these protests have had tendency to
create sentiment favoring prohibitory
legislation, they have not been as eff
fective as civilized population could
wish. The killing of two men in the
ring during the past two months has
been just what was needed. The peo-
pie have become properly aroused
and they will now demand legislation
that will put certain and peremptory
stop to the british sport. State leg
islatures will be called upon to pass
laws, with heavy penitentiary SEN
fences, prohibiting it; and the officers
selected to administer the laws will
find such sentiment against the
practice that they will spontaneously
enforce the laws, without the urging
of a constituency.

The Episcopal Sunday school held
their Christmas entertainment in
Thompson's hall on Monday evening.
Instead OF tree they had chimney
of bricks. Each brick was box Of
candy. Each child received a box of
candy, ball Of popcorn, and nearly
all had present as we'll. Some of
the little ones sang and recited, and
all were delighted with Punch and
Judy, but of course, the greatest feat
cf all was thatperformed by Santa
Claus,in the person Of Jamie Beechsr,
who came down the chimney and gave
all the little boys and girls present.
Even Rector Beer was not forgotten,
and he desires tovery greatfully thank
the st. Agnes Guild,the Ladies Guild,
and the gentlemen of the congrega-
ton. Three times did Santa Claus
call the Rector up, and each time he
received substantial proof of the
loving good will his people entertain
for him. His heart is cheered by
these tokens of kindly regard, and he
is encouraged to go on his way re-
joicing to know that his labors among
them have not been unappreciated by

of a constituency.

Mr.. Donnelly states that he is once
more to retire from the political field.
We do not believe the statement, with
all due Difference to the eminent gen.
tleman. Such men as Mr.. Donnelly,
SO long identified with the political
history of the State and Nation, can
not retire from the active political
field. His restless spirit, his active fe-
cund mind, his desire for prominence
and political grandeur, the magnetic,
irresistible influence with which he
sways his followers, who refuse to de-
sert him. even in the darkest periods
Of his public career, will always bring
him forward in politics. That spirit
of revenge, so deep in the hearts of
all leading politicians, who have met
with disappointments, such as those
met by Mr.. Donnelly, will prevent the
absolute retirement. Always vigorous,
always original, always witty and hu-
man, he will have listeners to applaud
his remarks. He will be brought forth
from his temporary retirement, in
course of time, to lead some other
movement to victory or defeat.

A POPULAR CHORD.

The GAzETTE's advocacy OF sixty
days session of the 1895 legislature
seems to have struck q popular chord
with the people and the press, judg-
ing from the comments of the latter,
and a good many of the exchanges
are of the opinion that all Of the neces-
sary legislation could be accomplished
in much less time than that proposed.
Some have even limited that if no laws
we're enacted at all it would be better.
But the sentiment is apparently unani-
nous in favor of the sixty days as a
maximum session. Too much time is
wasted drawing salaries at the end of
every ten days by the members; by
laying around and doing nothing, or
while few of the members are at
committee work. Too much time is
wasted in adjourning, in talking and
attempting to make speeches, and
working through some class measure
against the interests of the people.
Let the legislation enacted be of the
best, and let it be enacted quick, and
then let the legislature adjourn.

Expensive Carefulness.

An unusual summons was received over the telephone not long ago by Dr. David Birney, of the University of Pennsylvania, from a wealthy man in New York, who wished him to go to Long Island. Dr. Birney endeavored to find out something about the nature of the case he was expected to treat, but the man, after securing his promise to go, refused to talk further over the phone. The doctor packed a case of instruments at random, and met the man in New York. After taking din ner at the Waldorf they took the train for Long Island, but not a word was said about the operation. When they arrived the man thanked the doctor and paid him fifty dollars; then, in re- sponse to the look of wonder from the astonished surgeon, he said: T saw my sister bleed to death in a railroad accident for want of a physician, and since that day 1 have never traveleo without one."
