CITIZENS PROTEST.
The Removal of Trees from Mapleton ca
Forth Strong Remonstrance.

The Removal of Trees from Mapleton CA1a(
Forth Strong Remonstrance. Y
The proposed removal of the trees from
the center OF Mapleton avenue is calling
forth decided remoDstrance from the
dwellers all over town and especially on
Mapleton hill. The removal of the trees
was decided upon by the council Mon
day night, but the exact scope of their
action was not generally understood un.
til today. The expressions of disap-
proval are general and decided and it is
not unlikely that if the council removes
the trees the citizens will demand their
restoral.
Mayor Ricketts, in speaking of the
matter said that the trees as set at pres
ent interfere seriously with the proper
grading of the street. This is not re.
garded as valid reason by some of the
citizens most interested and immediate
steps will be taken to arrest the work.
It's hoped by many that the Boulder
Improvement society will interest itself
in this matter and assist Mapleton in
saving its beautiful adornments. The
trees have start and it is the general
opinion that it would be an objectionable
act to remove them.

The Wool Market.

As was anticipated by the ARGUS.
the recent crushing victory at Santi-
ago has had a good effect upon the
wool market and the price has made
an upward jump OF from = to 3 cents
in the past 10 days. A little earlier
than this last year the market was
quiet and some growers said they
did not expect to get over 10 cents.
but a change took place inside OF two
weeks. or as soon as the buyers com
menced to arrive in the local mar
kets. and over 10 cents was realized
for choice clips, while the average
price was about II. The factis, also,
Montana woods are in great demand.
especially those of the Judith Basin,
and it would not be surprising to see
some clips from this county bring Is
cents a pound before the season
closes. The wool is cleaner than
usual and its superiority owe woods
from other sections make the clip
very desirable as a substitute for
Australian woods. Surely, the wool
grower will have no complaint to
make, and when the clip is all mar
keted it will mean the return of lots
OF money to Fergus county, which
will help out the general business sit
uatiOu.
