Especial Correspondence to Morning Journal
Portland. ore, Dec. iS.-When the
National Wool Growers association
meets in Portland next month in an
nual convention, the session viii re-
semble@ a consultation OF physicians
over a complicated case. The prob
lem to be solved is how to keep the
next ngre from making a jig
saw puzzle out of schedule X. which IS
in grave danger, its friends fear, OF
being cut to pieces when the demo-
Gratis get in control of the next house.
This will be the dominant topic OF
the convention, beyond a doubt. No
less than 5000 sheep raisers from all
PARTS of the country VIII be in attend
anee, and there will be many a dis
cussion over the threatened tariff
changes as they affect the wool men.
President Fred w. Gooding of the
national association, in discussing
matters that viii engage the atten-
ton of the delegates when they meet
in convention, said.
zone OF our chief concerns as fol-
lowers of the Oldest line of h~ushandry
of which history speaks, is the assault
that has recently been so persistently
made upon the wool and woolens
schedules in the Payne-Aldrich tariff
law. Discussions thai VIII be held
in The convention will be educational
Not only is the general public almost
entirely uniformed, or rather misin-
formed, in regard to the merits of the
tariff rates on wool and woolens, but
| believe hat a very large majority
of the wool growers themselves have
but little idea of the importance OF
the subject.
"If, through the discussions that
will be held in the convention, moth
ing more is accomplished than the re-
moval of the prejudices that have
been engendered by the muck rakers
in the magazines, and the mudslingers
on the political hustings against the
wool growers and wooden manufactur-
ers, the convention Will have been well
worth holding
