The PRICE OF WOOL

We are greatly puzzled and troubled
over the matter of the price of wool
Utah and Idaho wool growers are offer
ed for the clip prices ranging from to
cents per pound. 1t is difficult to
account for this. The tariff has not
been removed form the price of wool
shipped into the country; the repubi-
can party is still in power in the land
and will continue III power until March
next. Were we not told only short
time ago that the republican party had
put the price of wool up. And were
we not also told that as long as the
republican party remained in power the
price of wool would he high?
Didn't our republican friends point
to the low price of wool during q part
of Grover ClevelandS administration MS
evidence that the republican party was
the only true friend of the woolgrower?
And my, my, how they did talk about
cleveland on the stump! 1t was awful
Now we would like to have one of those
orators come along and explain the
2Tesent situation. Why has the price
at wool dropped during republican
administration, with II high tariff still
in full force?
Yes, the explanation has Just occurred
40 us, The woolbuyers are all afraid q
democrat is going to I've elected presi-
dent, either, next fall or i'm the fall of

pay reasonable prices The same cx-
PLANTATION will undoubtedly occur to a
great many of our republican friends.
Ut 49, by the way, about the only ex-
PLANTATION they can offer.
At the time the woolgrowers are to
be commended for their attitude in
refusing to sell except at better prices
thmn they have been offered. They
think they should receive more money
for their product. They believe the
buyers have combined against them.

TRUSTS AND HIGH PRICES

If capital and labor are pursuing a
right course, it is not SO evident that
those trusts which under tariff prOtec-
ton can advance the prices of necessa-
ries of life as they see fit, are acting in
good faith with the consumers of this
country.
The trusts obtained their power for
consolidating competing concerns with
the implied understanding that they
could thereby give the public more
reasonable prices. In the days of com
petition, after panic, the cost of ving
was reduced because the competitors
made prices lower-there were no gen
tleman's agreements" Now, with
trusts welding almost tyranical power,
the people find prices soaring instead of
being lowered in depressed times.
The farmers can not be blamed for
exorbitant prices of beer, eggs, vegeta-
bles and many articles that go into cold
storage. They do not receive the fancy
prices which the unfortunate consumers
must pay. The trusts see that no one
benefits besides themselves Exchange.

The Dover That Should Be

A society is forming in New York to
provide manageable girls with dowries.
What would be much better would be
to teach them to be frst-class cooks and
housekeepers. In that case they would
have their dover without having to be
married; something that would give
them much better chance to get mar
ried than would The possession of few
dollars.
Seriously there ought to be q school of
that kind i'll every town of 5000 or more
inhabitants in America; the expenses of
the school should be borne by the mu-
nicipality, even as are the public schools.
Such schools if established and carried
on for ten years would be so appreciated
that they would by general consent be
made perpetual, and the misery that
would be saved through them would be
beyond computation.-T Telegram.
