WOOL PRICES GOING DOWN.

The Tribune yesterday morning had
correspondence from Montana which
showed wide diversion of sentiment
between the wool raisers and the wool
buyers. The sheep men insist that the
buyers are not offering enough for the
wool; the buyers, on the other hand
insist that conditions do not warrant
the prices which the shcopmeu are de
manding. The result will be the ship,
ping of. the larger portion of the Mon
tana wool clip to Boston, Philadelphia
and Chicago, "uudcr consignment.
IN those cities, and, as the Montana
sheepmen are large stockholders in the
Chicago warehouse, they are practically
consigning to themselves such wool as
they send there. But, at the same time
they cannot ignore the Boston and
Philadelphia markets, and their final
sales will be made where the best prices
can be obtained.
The same condition that is reported
from Montana prevails also throughout
this whole mountain wool-growing re.

throughout the year,
AS Senator Dolliver says, the woolen
schedules are among those dealt with by
subtcrfuge, and the statements given
out IN behalf of them were intended to
deceive the country. After awhile, per
haps, the wool growers will wake up
to the true situation, find out Hwhere
they are at, and demand an honest
revision Of the wooden schedules in their
own behalf in place of entirely in the

manufacturers will import, even though
they lose something for a while in do

made during the first four months in
the present year indicate that the wool

the only ones who will buy it? 1t is
well known that there is no market for
American wool outside of the United
States, for everywhere else, wool Is
much cheaper than here. American wool
growers are obliged to sell to the Amer
ican wool manufacturers or not sell at
all. These manufacturers know this,
and can dictate their own prices. Will
they bid high or low7 That is, are they
phllanthropists or sharp business mem?
The answer in each case is obvious.

DOLLIVER HITS BACK.

That was spunky speech whicl
Senator Dolhver delivered in the Senat,
on Monday. He declines to be read ou
OF the Republican party, and declines t'
admit that the new bunko tariff Law
is test of Repubicanism. He hold:
that the law was one Of the two grea'
hoaxes of last year, the other being the
Cook claim of discovery of the North
Pole. That is putting it very straight
and clear, in a way that even the most
dense Fstand.patter" could not fail tc
comprehend,
| Senator Dolliver was very emphat tic
and also very strong when he stated that
the derellction of the "insurgents in
| refusing to support this bunko tariff
| bill was educ to their belief that it
failed to fulfill the party pledges;
that in their opposition they were clear
ly vindicating the President S campag gn
speeches, and fulfilling the expectation
of the country, which demanded revi.
sion downward of the whole tariff
bill, and honest work in that respect
throughout
Senator Dolliver distinctly says that
the Presidents showing in behalf of
the tariff bill in his speech at Winona,
was made by presenting "grotesque
table, of reductions in duties which
was prepared by a paymaster in the
army; and further, that his Winona
speech was In direct contradiction OF
his Lincoln Day address; all of which
is undeniably true.
Senator Dolliver then proceeded to
show the effect of the tariff law. on
the rubber tire industry. where those
interested in the monopolies fostcred
in this industry by the tariff law were
multiplying their wealth by rapid
strides. One concern in ten years had
increased its capital from $4,000 to
$l0,000,000, clear outrage and impo.
sition upon the public, robbery beyond
all defense.
Proceeding further in the matter of
exposing the fraudulent nature of the
new tariff law. Senator Dolliver pre-
sentcd figures TO show that rates had
Decu TdLScu, most OF tncn Dy SuDlcT-
fugc. Included in this list were the
products of iron and steel, sugar, the
wooden schedules, and, of course, the
cotton schedules, where the raises were,
as compared with the old law, in some
cases boosted away over 100 per cent,
the result being marked increase to
American consumers i'll the products
Of all of the cotton factories,
There is no question but that Senator
Dolliver had this matter right. The
argument is with him; the proposition
that the new tariff law was framed in
the interest of the trusts, combines and
monopolies, and that its effect has been
to put the markets in the hands of
those combines. is not susceptible of
denial. The argument is all one way.
The new tariff law is fraud an i'm
position upon the people, huge and
scandaous imposture throughout.

tells onehalf of the story, since it omits
altogether tn" amounts received by the
companies from their patrons and
policy holders. Perhaps if we should
estimate the amount received by the
companies, that amount might approx
mate something like double the amount
which the companies paid out.

States The ratio of premiums on sur
rendered policies decreased. The lapse

ments on policies for 1910 were in
