This is Mr. Balfour's definition Of a
newspaper: "A commercial speculation
requiring enormous capital. great skill
and dextclity in managing that capital,
and, like all other undertakings of q
similar kind, those who run the con-
cern have got to look to their custom
ers. 1t is one Of the institutions under
which we live, which we submit to-
which we profit by, which we suffer
from, but which we do not criticise." !"
1t is interesting in this connection to
note the rnmor that Mr.. Ralfour never
reads newspaper Ii the rumor is a
fact, Mr. Balfour, Of course, speaks
without prejudice.

WOOL.

The caltmlty howlcrs prophcsicd
that when the Wilson bill was pass
cd and wool was put on the free list
the price would fall and the indus
try of sheep raising would be ruined
and farmers be placed in still
worse condition than they have
been.
But contrary to their cxpecta-
tions. and in fat contradiction of
the fundamental theories Of Pro-
tcc'ion, the price of wool has risen
since the pass lgc of the new tariff
bill. 1t will be remembered that
when the Mckinley bill was passed,
there was sudden fall IN the price
OF wool, and wool has been going
down ever since. 1t is hard to i'm
aglnc what more positive proof
could be asked by f,rmers than
that the Mckinley law was inimlcal
TO their interests and was tho cause
of the unfortunate condition into
which they have fallen as whole.
This object lesson will be very
instructive, too, in considering the
general tariff question. What does
II mean when product falls i'm
