ALSO FIGURED LABOR DOWN FINE.
ave have figured it down fine and
have ascertained that with sufficiently
large investment we can make 4 per
cont per annum even under the present
law. OF course, 1t means monopoly
and the closest kind OF expenditure in
wages and supplies. but that is the way
it is done in England and Australia and
we must follow the same plan.
"The plan 10 simply this: We pro-
pose to get $4,000 or $4,000 of eastern
capital invested. With our present
lands, leases and stock, this will make
big Investment We will then buy 3d.
COO to $4,000 more sheep, Of the better
breeds, and acquire as much more land
as necessary. We will pay bed rock
prices, spot cash, for sheep and land.
In the present financial condition OF the
farmers, this will be even lower than
the figures l have given. We expect to
lease all the land We want for from 80 TO
40 cents an acre.
"Next comes the question of labor.
l. requires large force OF men to carry
on the business on the scale we have
been conducting it; but OH the scale We
propose to 90 it will be proportionately
larger. We had been paying our hands
the same price that all the farmers
were paying up until eighteen months
ago, when the drop in prices, caused by
anticipated tariff reductions. came
along. The rate was from so to Sd per
month and board.

PlTrsBUaon, Oct 16-The Dispatch
this morning prints the following inter.
view, which will be Of interest TO all
sheep raisers:
A wool producing monopoly Is about
TO be inaugurated in Ohio Us result Of
the present tariff law. This Is probably
what the trainers OF the law expected,
but there is no room for doubt that
such will be Its effect The farmers who
until year or two ago had a com:
Portable income from sheep raising will
be forced out OF tho business; in fact
many have already been forced out, and
the balance are trying 70 got rid oil their
stock as rapidly Us possible. It 10 going
farther than that, for many oil the farm
ers arc SO situated that ordinary farm
ing is protitless, and. unable any longer
to produce wool, they airy trying to sell
or lease their farms for whatever they
can get for them.
How this new system ia operating was
explained in detail last night by Will
iam Morehead, OF Morehead & Cowen,
OF Eimville, Highland county, Ohio.
OLD uANDb AT ThE bOolNESos
"We have been in the sheep raising
business in Highland, Adams and
Warren counties. o., since lssS," he
said, .'having several thousand acres Of
leased land, and at present 5000 sheep
OF the finer wool-producin2 breeds. Two
years ago we valued our sheep at an av-
erape OF S. so each. We sold wool for
from 20 to 80 cents per pound, aud had
good profit. The farmers all around
us, on q large or small scale, made a
good profit on their production, also.
'Its different now. We can buy
sheep OF the common breeds tor 81 to
81 % each In any number. Fine South
downs are worth less than = and any
number Of them are to DO had. We
sold our wool this year for IA cents, in
anticipation OF the Mckinley bill being
nnnuled, and lost $1,000 in cold cash.
Our loss, however, was nothing to that
of hundreds OF farmers all through
Ohio, who had nothing but their wool
Weld to live on. They had actually ex-
pended in producing their wool crop
more than il brought them, and alter
selling the crop were in debt on it
"WhiIe IA cents seems very low fig
ure il is not as low as we must get. I'M
der the present law Australian wool Is
brought into this country and sold ut IL
and l2 cents pound. In order to meet
that price we must adopt Australian
methods. That is what we propose to
do. 1t is simply cold business propo-
sition with us.

OUSTED THE PRESIDENT.

yoINcd In II Legal Row.

There IL trouble in the Stryer Sick Ben
eft Society. 1t all grows out of the So
ciety's last election. and the Supreme
Court will have to determine who Is
President. Civil justice Roesch will de-
eide who gets the bank books Thursday.
Some four or five weeks ago the So
cIcty held meeting and elected new
officers. Nathan Steckel's term OF Office
expired on that night. and his successor
was to be elected. Max Eichel got the
plum.
Some members. however, were not sat
| isned, and when few OF Eichsl's
friends left the indictments. without
any ceremony. It Is alleged, fired him
| out Of the chair. reopened the nomina-
ton for President. and Morris Wan
derer was elected IN his place.
Wanderer demanded the bank books
given them to Eichel. Then the trouble
began.
The Society obtained from Justice
Roesch writ Of replevin against Steek-
| el. and when Marshals Wolf and Elm
stein went to replevy they found moth:
irg. In the mean time Steckel retained
| Lawyer Alfred II. Jaworower, OF the
| Pulitzer Building. to appear for him
| Elchel also retained Lawyer Jaworower
to apply to the Supreme Court for an
order directing the Society to show
cause why he should not have the Pres.
ident's chair.
In the mean time the Society has nc
bank books. and while the leaders are
fighting the poor members suffer.
