WOOL MARKET QUIET.
Sale of Territories Have Been Comparatively
SnlaIl-HOlders Feel Firm.

Reviewing the wool market for the
past week, the American Wool and
Cotton Reporter says:
The business transacted in territory
wools has been comparatively small.
There have been no large transactions,
and the buying has been of a piece
meal character. Some houses report a
fair amount of sample bags being
business later on, but the past week
has been the quietest one in territory
woois which has been reported for Il
long time. Holders feel very firm
however, in view OF the strength mani
tested in the country, and the high
prices at which the early shorn wools
in Arizona have been moved. Quota
tions may be given on the following
basis: Fine medium clothing, +5c,
clean; fine medium staple, 45M 47c,
fine. 47W5O, according to staple and
general condition. A dead fine terri
tory is quoted at about 50 cents, and
some choice Nevada is reported to
have changed hands at that quotation.
Utah wools which are fine cost 2m3
per secured pound less. Fine territory
wools are comparatively we'll picked
up, and are not now very plentiful.
The market is strong on fine woods,
and one house reports tnat it had been
able to do better on some fine secured
than 1t could have done three or four
weeks ago. Choice medium Montana
and Wyoming have sold at II cents,
costing about 50 cents, clean
Wools have been contracted for on
the sleeps back at prices which are
understood to be fully equal To 50
cents, clean, landed. One Chicago
house is reported as having offered
quite freely at current prices for wool

NORMAL BOARD WON'T
BUY SAMPLE BOOKS
In Refusing Proposition, Of ex-PresIdent
kleeberger, Commissioners Recon-,
mend New Library Law.

The State Normal board held a brief
session yesterday afternoon at which it
disposed of NUMBER of routine mat
tiers pertaining to the opening of the nor
NAL schools. The only subject of interest
to come before the board was the much
agitated question. Of the disposition Of
books sent to the normal school presidents
as members of the State Library commits
sion.
The agitation over this subject all
came about over proposition of EXPIRES
ident Kleebergef, of the. St. Cloud normal
school, to sell number of books sent him
by publishers when he was a member of
the library commission, to the school for
a small amount
The board of control, to which the prop
Osition was referred, took the position
that the books did not belong to Mr..
school, and Attorney General Douglass
gave an opinion to the same effect.
Mr.. Kleeberger. however. disputed the
right Of the state to the: books, and the
normal board, at its meeting yesterday,
ton declaring it against the policy of
the board to purchase from normal
school, president books which he had re-
ceived in this way.
The. agitation before the normal board
brought to a. head "a long discussed prop
osition to the. effect that the law making
the normal school presidents members Of
the library commission is a mistake, and
should be repealed.
said that there had always been feeling
that library commission, whose duty it
was to select books for the rural, graded
and high schools Of the state. composed Of
normal school presidents, was hardly log
icaI. AS a result of the agitation, the
board adoptedfa resolution favoring a re-
peal of the law at the next session Of the
legislature. n

AS a matter of fact, the hotels have
become congested earlier this year
than ever before Usually it is not
until the middle Of fair week that the
obsequious hotel clerk is compelled tc
inform applicants for rooms that:

ask them whether they would prefer
to sleep in the parlor next to the
