Salt Lake City, March 22.-With
the approach of the time when wool
shipments will be heavy, and which
is only about month away, the
Utah representatives of the rail-
roads are busying themselves in pre-
paration for the new shipments.
Shearing will begin early in April,
and most of the seasons clip has
already been contracted for by East
ern buyers. Prices range from 13
to is cents, with occasional clips
bringing about 20 cents. These
prices range from 25 to 80 per cent.
higher than last year.
Reports have been received that
shearing at points along the Salt
Lake route will begin about April
5. The big shearing corral which
has been located five miles west of
Lehi, in the mountains, has been
moved to point on the Fairfield
branch, seven miles west of Lehi
Junction. This will do away in the
future with the long wagon haul
of wool, as it will now be possible
to load the clip on the cars direct
from the corral. 1t is stated that
from 80 to 40 flocks OF sheep will

Woman Suffrage Victory in Chicago.

Woman Suffrage Victory in Chicago.
Woman Suffragsts of Chicago are
rejoicing because of the great vic
tory which they won in the charter
convention Saturday, March 18th.
The conventions. after short debate,
by vote of 30 to ~, adopted the
plank which provides for municipal
woman suffrage. The question now
goes to the state legislature, and
the Suffragists will maintain a lob
by at Springfield and go to the Can
ital from Chicago and other parts of
the state in full force when a hear
ing is granted on the measure. This
municipal suffrage campaign has
been admirably conducted, and has
been of immense educational value.
1t has been supported by women rep
resenting the best thought Of the
city, prominent among whom are
Jane Adams, Mrs. Charles Henrot-
in, Mrs. Catherine Waugh McCul-
Tough and Mrs. Ella S. Stewart. Mrs.
Stewart is the president of the Hin
ois Equal Suffrage Association, an
officer in the National American Wo-
man Suffrage Association and the
treasurer of the Woman's Municipal
Campaign committee. 1t is she who
raised funds to carry on this work.
Mrs. Stewart was also the most in
tluential factor in the organization
of the Mems League for Woman
Suffrage recently launched in Chi
cago and Differed by some of the
best known political reformers in
the Windy CITY,"

should take an interest in it. Those
who are interested in the growth of
the county, in agriculture, in stock
raising, and all that kind of thing,
should take hold of it and make 1t. a
success. The interest of the many
is much better than a few, even
though more money should be repre-
scented by the few. Do not fail to
help the thing along.
