Sheep Values Contrasted.
lFrOm American Economist)

From American Economist)
The difference in the value Of sheep
under Free-Trade and Protection il
shown in the results Of an assignee's sale
OF the estate OF Thomas McElroy, a
farmer in Jefferson County, Ohio, who
had given particular attention to sheep
husbandry. This sale took place in Oc-
tober, 1894, few weeks after the pas
sage OF the Wilson bill, and the animals
offered were all fine black-top merinos.
The files of the Ohio estate Journal
show that forty ewes were sold for go
cents each, 80 lambs for 20 cents each,
and one registered buck for 80 cents.
Other lots chosen from the flock sold at
similar prices, and all were fine merino
sheep.
Secretary Miller OF the State Board
OF Agriculture" says the Piqua "Dis
patch, sis authority for the statement
that to-day ewes Of the same grade are
worth So to 81 each, lambs 81 to 81 90,
and registered bucks from $l5 to $25 A
few days ago the Insurance Association
OF Medina County made an allowance Of
81 each for common breed lambs. This
is what the Republicans have accom-
plished by restoration OF the Tariff on
WOOL"
In April, 1896, there were 2,633, 4lO
sheep owned in the State OF Ohio, in
Texas 2.9l1, 1893, in California 2,7S9,907,
in Oregon 2,4sG,247, in Montana g.
900, G57, in New Mexico 1896, 1852, in
Utah l,9O2,5l6, in Michigan 1,4ss,S9l,
in Wyoming 1896, 1874, in Colorado ], 25S,-
1913, and in all the States and territories
the total sheep owned was 30, aga. 405.
Allowing an average gain Of 81 per
head in the market value OF ewes,
lambs and bucks, as contTasted with the
prices realized at the assignee's sale in
October, 1894, Tn etotal addition TO the
wealth OF the country from this source
alone amounts TO So, 928,8I0
The total WOOL clip for 1896 amounted
10 272, i74, 70s pounds. and the clip for
1897 is reported at 259, l53,25l pounds.
A comparison OF the prices OF wool cur
rent to-day with those Of August l, 1896,
shows that nineteen grades OF American
wool average 63 per cent. higher to-day
than In the summer Of 1896. At this
rate the gain in values ofsheep and wool
as the direct result OF the Protective
Tariff OF 1897 reaches at least 500, 0O0,-
900 twill take good deal OF argu-
ment 10 persuade the American people
that there Is anything to object 10 Ia
policy that at a single stroke adds tlO0,-
600, 900 10 the value OF a single aericul-
tural industry, 10 say nothing OF the
future value and productiveness OF that
industry as the flock OF sheep and clips
Of wool increase each year under the
stimulus Of Protection.

4 FEW WoRDs IN sE1soN

~ NVhffo Nv cEdOON.
VIZ hope by this time, that possibly
the unfortunate candidates in the elect
ion two weeks ago and their friends
have had time to cool off and give mat
ters some sober thought and proper
consideration. The Republican waterloo
in this county was calculated 10 throw
fellows off OF their guard. Democrats
were lifted out Of their boots as it were
by something like cyclone, but it
could not be checked. 1t seems like
everything went under the log cabin,
the returns from the rural districts,
where we expected gairs for the ticket,
disclosed nothing. The candidates work.
ed hard but lot of the fellows, didn't
do what they said, they would do, vote
under the Fusion ticket. That's where
we lost. Who was to blame for ii :?
The Lord only knows, unless it was them
other fellows. Some sharp criticisms
and harsh reproof has been hurled at the
News and its editors, for some so called
treachery, to the party and the ticket.
God knows we did what we could to
help the thing along. The truth is that
sometimes we hardly knew "where we
were at" One fellow here was making
magnificent suggestion at one point,
out yonder was another. 1t was impossi-
BILE to follow them all. Because
county newspaper has something else to
do, besides giving its whole time to the
regulation of county politics. However
as we have said, we did what we could,
to help the boys get elected. So we
suppose did all other fair minded Demo-
Gratis. But the situation was critical
from the beginning.
The Democrats six months ago were
helpless as they stood with the gold
bugs on one side and the Populists on
the other. They could not get the aid
of one, but with the promised assistance
of the other, they went into fight, for
the county offices. The fight was 10
down the Republicans by an artful COM
bination which in the beginning,
promised some hopes Of success, but in
the end proved disastrous. That's the
fact Of the business.
The blame can't be laid to any one
mans door. The Fusion was a blunder.
1t tended to confuse. The voters did
not understand the ballot. They could
not vote intelligently under two devices.
Moreover large number, did not fall
under the Fusion device, as they had
promised. This is all Of it, Hereafter
we council the Democrats to stand by
the party device, and to consult wise
leadership
The News is always open to legitimate
criticism, but we detest mud singing.
We do not have TO parade our Demo
cracy to the world. In the future we
shall go along as in the past, attending
strictly to our business. Counseling the
success OF the party, as we see it.

jim and Charlie Durham will invest
this fall $500 in sheep and the Hon. Tice
jolly says he is going to plant fifty acres
in Burley. The farmers are getting a
move on themselves. High prices
stimulates trade, stimulates farmers and
helps everybody. It's not the question
of what brought about these high prices,
but the thing to do now, that they are
here, is to take advantage OF them and
get our share of the prosperity. That's
what wide-awake farmers like the gem
tleman we name above are doing and it's
the thing for all farmers to do.

Miss Leila Henley, of this city, has
announced herself as a candidate for
State Librarian. Miss Henley is a
woman OF exceptional executive ability,
and is in every way worthy Of the
position. She has served two terms as
postmistress in this city by appoint
ment under Mr.. Cleveland and we VEN
ture to say the town never had better
one. Everything about the office was
kept in perfect order to the minutest
detail. When Miss Henley goes before
the Legislature as she will do later and
presents her claims to that body of dis
tinguished men, we think she will make
votes as none of her opponents can or
will. We predict success for her.
