The Drover's Journal says in
a recent article THE wool
situation is by no means salts
factory TO the sheepmen of the
West. Much of last years clip
is still stored in the warehouses,
and there is little prospect OF
selling it at the prices which was
obtained early last year. Manu-
facturers are going into the
shoddy business because they
say that the demand from the
laboring classes is for something
cheap. and they cannot afford to
pay the present market price OF
wool and sell the cloth cheap
enough to make a garment that
would come within the reach OF
the ordinary workman. The ad-
vance in the price of woolen
goods has shut off much of this
: demand, and tailors are finding
their business shrinking percept
IDLY. At the Salt Lake meeting
, the wool men introduced a reso
luton demanding that some legis
lative measures be taken to pre-
vent or, at least, limit the manu-
/ facture of shoddy goods. How
far their influence can go in this
/ direction, however, is problem
: atical."
