A wooIerovrera' Trust.

According to the Salt Lake Herald,
a woolgrowers' trust is being organ
lied throughout the west Already, It
is stated, seventy OF the leading sheep
men of Utah have gone into the organ
izaton, while many OF the principal
woolgrowers in Nevada, Oregon and
Idaho have also joined forces with the
new organization. Abolition OF the
middlemen's profit and the turning Of
the same TO the woclgrowers are stated
to be the objects Of the new organiza-
ton. This would seem to be the most
difficult Of all combines because Of the
wide distribution and isolation OF
growers.

estimated that the wool clip for this
season will amount to nearly half a
million pounds Of wool for the south

many Angora goats are going in as
sheep. These animals have thrived bet

wool is worth twice as much as COM

A NEW LINCOLN MONUMENT.
Beautiful and Appropriate Emblem Has
Been Planned.

Beautiful and Appropriate Emblem Has
Been Planned.
Senator Cullom's project for great
monument to Abraham Lincoln in
Washington is receiving gratifying en-
couragement in consignment of the
plans of the Burnhnu. Olmsted and
McKim commission tor the improve
ment of the national capital. In the
development of these plans fine sites
for great monuments results, and it
was agreed that the chief of these sites
of the axis of the Capitol and the
Washington monument-should be as
signed to Lincoln.
The memorial which the expert com
mission proposes was presented simply
as a suggestion; but the Washington
Star reports that it seems to have met
with universal acceptance. A number
Of the leading architects of the coun-
try have seen the drawing of it, and
have expressed their satisfaction with
the conception. In form it IS q paris
tyle of Doric columns, $50 feet long by
220 feet broad, supporting a high tab
let inscribed with the words of the
immortal Gettysburg speech. The
Doric is regarded, with justice, as the
appropriate order to represent the
character of Lincoln. The drawing
shows that the monument fronts vast
terrace, or esplanade, adjoining large
basin with fountains, and at right and
left it is inclosed by plantations of
frees. The dignified, noble and clas-
sical simplicity of the conception ap-
pears to indicate that the idea might

Nc matter if she is poor and ignorant and a stranger in the country, she was still entitled to as much consideration as q rich woman and he would insist on the case being conducted with all due decorum and respect. This closed the direct exam ination and court adjourned for the day, it being o'clock. .
 Court opened to-day with sensa- tion. The plaintiff was not on hand when Judge Cowell took the bench. A search was made for her and she was reluctantly brought in. Tn ans wer to questions she stated that last night the defendant said he would kill her if she persisted in going on with the case, and that he had also threatened her witnesses. This made her afraid of him and ,she thought it better not to appear ill court. Judge Cowell seemed greatly angered by this statement and he ordered the defend ant to be taken into custody by Sher- if Mcdonald until the case is over The examination then proceeded and cross-exanination began.
