hands of the middleman or mill owner
IN an unWashed condition. This means
a direct loss to the farmer of
thing like 80 per cent or several mil
lions a year in the aggregate.
Wool values are nearly always de-
termined upon a clean or secured basis,
and washed wool is on the average
classed about 80 per cent higher than
unwashed wool. In old times the wool
was nearly all washed before going to
market, and unwashed wool was rath-
er the exception. The reason for this
change has been that washing the wool
on the back Of the sheep always threat
ened them with cold and death. The
loss in this way was considerable, and
in the end the growers determined not
to wash wool before shearing, as the
30 per cen loss in value was better
than to lose a great number Of sheep
from colds contracted while holding
them in the cold water to. wash them.
The colds thus obtained would often
weaken the systems Of half the sheep
In a flock. and they would, then con-
tract whatever disease happened to be
around. The change was probably for
the best. but it does seem as if that so
per cent difference in value of washed
and unwashed wool should be saved.
There should be some way for the
grower to make it and add it to his an
nual profit. 49, l..-"
The practice of selling the wool on
the sleeps back to begin with is bad.
This at once leaves, room for specula-
tors to depress the market price of
wool until most of the crop has been
bought up and then advance it rapidly.
The farmer is duped and finds that be
has sold his wool for a nominal price
when there was an actual scarcity of
wool in the country. When he sells the
wool on the animals back, he has no
opportunity to hold back his stock for
better prices nor to wash it. Now.
there is nc reason why farmers should
not clip their own wool and then wash
1t before sending it to market. In this
way the price obtained for it in some
years would be nearly double what the
producers now receive. Probably wash
ing the wool on the backs of the ami
mails is a mistake. but certainly wash
ing it at home after shearing is some
thing that should take its place.

AFFORDS

Minneapolis Times: The rapidity
with which the officials of the Great
Northern are settling up the territory
along that line between the twin cities
and the remote west is a matter. of in
tense amusement to railroad men gen
orally. There was a great flourish
some time ago over prospective home
seekers travel. 1t was given out in
Chicago. and credited to the immigra-
tion department of the Great North
ern, that fully $4,000 settlers would go
into the northwest in the next few
months. Certain specified periods
would, it was understood, witness sew
eral thousand in transit.
On the first Of this week was to take
place the first big forward movement.
1t was unanimous that $4,000 or more
mighL be looked for in the twin cities.
F With a show of delicate modesty the
Great Northern did not claim all, of
course. The 500 and Northern Paci-
fic would probably receive a few. At
any rate, the movement failed to ma
terialize. No extra coaches were
added to any Of the outgoing coast
trains Tuesday, and none Wednesday
as far as learned. This, is the state
ment of officials who saw the trains
leave st. Paul. ... h
Tuesday it was explained that some
delay had prevented the big army OF
homeseekers from reaching st. Paul
but they would arrive yesterday. They
may have come, but no one seen could
find them. There were a few home
seekers, but the number did not ma
teriaaly affect the daily westward
travel nor tax the equipment of the
roads. Now comes the cry from some
lines that homeseekers' rates are being
abused, and that people who have no
intention of taking up lands are work
ing their way west on the reduced
rates. Wonder has been expressed
as to the tangibility of the $4,000 who,
President Hill says, settled along the
Great Northern last year, and just
what effect their vote may have ON the
presidential election in western states.

CAss COUNTY BOY. III \
Fargo, Oct. 5.---Walter Smith. the
~l2-year-old o OF Thomas Smith, a
farmer living near Whea1land, was in
standby killed yesterday afternoon at 5
O'Clock by the accidental discharge of
a gun in the hands OF his cousin. Al
fred Smith. In %|
1t appears that Alfred Smith, the
l5-year-old son Of John S. Smith, a
Well-known farmer living five miles
south of Wheatland, was blowing in
the field near a duck pond. He was
accompanied by, his cousin, Walter
Smith. Jimmie Brown, the 1O-year-
old son of J.. G. Brown, county commits
sioner, was herding cattle near by and
was riding a horse. He rode up, tied
the horse, and the. three boys went
down to the pond to shoot ducks with
a gun owned by Alfred Smith. The
ptoW team was left standing in the
nelds "a snort distance away, and the
boys sat down to await the approach
OF a flock of ducks which we're seen
clrcling about the pond. vu Alfred
Smith, the eldest boy of the three, had
Charge of the gun by right of his longer
experience, and sat with the weapon
across his lap.
Just at this moment the horses at
'5achea to the }plow became restless
and started away, and as the boys
leaped to their feet the gun was acct
dentally discharged. The shot in a
compact mass. struck Walter Smith in
the left eye, and blew the top part OF
his head entirely off. The brain with
its m~embranous covering was thrown
to the ground Intact, and the unfor-
tunate youth fell to the ground a
corpse. Death was instantaneous.

against Imperialism and the Mckinley
policy OF expansion It was his first

all doubt as to his position on the Phil

He reviewed at length the history Of
the controversy over the islands, He
held that If the same recognition and
consideration had been given Aguinaldo
and his government that was given the
Sultan of Sulu there would have been
no war, no loss of life, no vast expen-
diture of money and no troublesome
colonial difficulties His speech was
well received and literally applauded.
