Republican POI::j.

The American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter, the acknowledged organ of the
wool growers of the United States, in
its current issue, makes thefollowih9
editorial comment on the wool sched-
ules in the Dingley BILL.
@Che story lately current that the
Senate Finance Committee will re-
duce the clothing wool uuly to eight
cents, is on it's face extremely i'm
probable. There are only forry-two
straight Republicans in the Senate,
making it necessary to secure outside
votes in order to pass any kind Of a
tariff bill. These votes are looked
for in the West among Senators
whose sympathies r with the silver
party, but who also represent wool
growing constituencies"
That is to say, the Republican par
ty must be bulldozed into giving a
western product, such as wool, a fair
share Of the fruits of protection.
The DingIey bill, as it passed the
House, stands for the present policy
of the Republican party. That policy
is in opposition to western interests.
Wool, Of the class raised in the west,
is virtually on the free list, as are
also hides, while on the other hand.
there is not an eastern industry that
is not amply protected. If the Ding
ley bill e~merges.from the Senate in a
more favorable form to western in
terests than it now presents, it will
be the work of western senators
who are in a position to demand and
command an equitable division Of
protection. This will not be especially
pleasing to the wool manufacturers,
who have learned to expect much aid
from the paterral hand of govern
mont, but it will be a source Of salts
faction to western men.-Ogd0n

had the sympathy Of the public and
even of part of the employing class as
that one did and yet when an appeal
was made for financial aid less than
seven cents per striking miner was re-
ceived." There was much bitter criti-

Offering up his last supplication, the
signal to haul away was given. The
applause as he went up was deafening.
In about four minutes he was pro.

viewing the body, cut it down and
summoned a jury, whose verdict was
that Bushrod came to his death at the
hands of unknown parties.
During the entire time of the lynch

the hill and hillside overlooking the
public square, and when his dangling
form went up, cheers upon top of

the women gave double assurance to
