VIM. Harriott Of Altmont, s. D.,
father Of E. E. Harriott of this city,
was a pleasant visitor to our sanctum
on the day before Christmas. Mr..
Harriott has just returned from Chi
cago where he sold several carloads
Of sheep. The market he declares is
poorer than has ever been known be-
fore in this country. Train load after
train load hailing from Nebraska are
being placed upon the Chicago market.
The whole western plain is said to be
devoid of feed for sheep and with the
Wilson bill to add to the misery the
sheep industry is in a deplorable state.
MI. Harriott proposes to go out OF the
sheep business and move back to Elk
Point.
