started up again, and it is reported
that both mills will be running in q
few days. Whether the strike is a
new one, or continuation Of the

usual richness of Holy Terror ore. -

The wool sale days did not attract
many buyers to our little city last
week and the few here did not seem
at all anxious to buy, as we are in
formed that the best offer made was
IA cents. The sheepmen we're not
willing to sacrifice their clip and ac-
cordingiy stored their wool till they
can get a better price. The ware
house company approaching the
condition of affairs agreed to store
the wool for fifty cents per month,
just one-half the regular price. So
far as we are able to learn this is
the only warehouse that has given
the woolgrowers rebate on their
storage, and the fact is appreciated
by the woolgrowers. There is 49,.
600 pounds of wool now stored in
the warehouse. Belle Fourche
