Peace and Prosperity.

will and friendly feeling, in order that
prosperity might be ensured to the
whole people. He alluded to his almost
unanimous election as an indication
that his government would be not one
of force, but one of the people, for gov
ernments of force always met their
end through force. Owing to the alb
sence in the United States of Minister

IDAHO WOOL GROWERS PROTEST
Congress Denounced for Placing Their
Product on the Free List.

Product on the Free List.
Boise. Idaho, Sept. 10.-The Idaho
Wool Growers Association held an in
teresting meeting and transacted a
large amount of business. The ques-
ton Of the association assisting to de-
fray the expenses of the prosecution of
the men who will be arrested for cattle
killing in Long Valley came up on the
report of the committee to which the
matter was referred. The committee
reported that the prosecution would
cost the stockmen in the neighborhood
of $500. After considerable discussion
it was decided by vote of rs to to do
nate $3.50 to aid the cause of the Long
valley stockmen.
During the day Senator Shoup was
sent for. The senator responded and
addressed the association briefly, assur-
ing the members of his interest in their
welfare and stating that he would do
everything in his power for the ad-
vancement of their industry. An inter
esting discussion took place over the
shearing question, comparison being
made between the hand and the ma
chine work. Mr.. Ormsby stated that a
band of sheep at Casper, Wyo., was di-
vided, half being sheared by hand, the
others by machine. The machine, he
stated, had saved the cost of shearing
in the increase in the amount of wool
secured

recite the effect Of the free wool clause
of the democratic tariff law giving
elaborate tables of figures and con-
cluded as follows:
Resolved, That free wool has proved
disastrous and appalling mistake in
the United States, entailing a direct
loss upon the sheep industry of this
country of more than $150,000000 and
reduced the price of sheep and wool
fully one-half.
Resolved, That the interest of this
country demands early action at the
hands of the Fifty-fourth congress and
the correction of the appalling mistake.
No supposed party or political advan-
tage will Justify it in postponing this
plain and honest duty.
Resolved, That the singing out of
wool from among the so-called raw ma
terials for sacrifice by the last congress,
while others of less Importance were
cared for and protected was a crime
and an outrage upon our industry and
should be resented at the polls.
Resolved, That if it shall unwisely
and unjustly become the settled policy
of the government to maintain free
wool, we will then as a measure OF
equal justice, demand free wooden and
cotton goods and we ask our senators
and congressman to lend their energies
that way until the manufacturers are
placed on the same footing as the pro
ducers of this country"

able to render him any assistance.

eral times. and realizing that he could
90 nothing. an being in strangled
condition, he hit Weidel several times

Perry tried to swim TO the ferry boat
with what strength he had LETT but
was about to go under when Mrs. u
seph. who was on the boat, handed an
oar to him. Her screams attracted the
attention of several men, who ran to
his aid and pulled him on the boat IN
an exhausted condition.
Porter, who was out in the river a
good distance at the time, swan in
and went to Weidels assistance also.
The drowning man grasped both OF
Porter's wrists and be was unable to
do anything Porter was pulled under
the water twice, and the third time
Weidel went down he let go his grip
on Porter, and was seen no more.
