that marked the recent opening of the

arrogant spirit of jingoism. It will be
remembered that the lower house in

have at heart the extension of occi-

herself is concerned, one does not have
to look very far to perceive that the
civilization of the west has really taken
firm root, tempered, it is true, by the
ancient theocratic spirit that has been
giving ground only since the great rev
olution of 1868 and modified by the not
unnatural tendency to revolutionize old

In this country it is strongly so because
the old stocks are exhausted and the
spinners are in need of wool for use

Of the country is greatly reduced and
the next clip will be many million
pounds short Of this seasons clip. which
itself was considerably short of the tAo
or three preceding clips. The same
causes that are making muttons and
lambs scarce and light, viz, a marked
shortage, are strongly influencing the
wool market. and it is quite impossible
to forecast next springs prices. except
to say that they are likely to 60 higher

one and one third cents over last sum-

advance on the next New Mexico clip,

have been secured. Two of the large
Idaho clips are contracted at 20 and
2o4 cents-a clear advance of four and
five cents over June and July prices,
and the general average of sales for the
state are y to 10 cents. 1t is the same
in Utah, Washington, Oregon, Wyom-

line, the sales in the latter state ranging
from17 to 81 cents. When eastern buy
