cago wool paper as offering the fol-
lowing advice to growers:
Growers should carefully consider
foreign wool market conditions before
accepting lower prices for their crops" :"
said A. ]. Knollin Foreign markets
are active at the highest prices of the
year and home market conditions are
not warranted except through causes
entirely due to domestic influences.
Certainly the new clip will not exceed
consumptive demands as we will be
compelled to import wool for a num-
ber of years to come. Strike threats
and rumors of tariff revision may
have been depressing influences and
there are doubtless many who are
honest in the belief that prices of
wooden goods in this country are too
high to the consumer, My advice is
to store wool and not make conces-
sions to the dealer that are of sacrifi-
cial nature. 1t is going to be a long
drawn struggle between buyer and
producer this year and dealers show
decided disposition to clean up old
stocks before starting out

It is strict rule of the theater
management that undergraduates may
not purchase tickets for stage boxes

other satisfactory chaperone. on this
particular day tickets for a party Of
five in box were purchased in the

The women were dressed in white
silk with richly embroidered cloaks
over their crisply curling tresses white
lace theater wraps were drawn and
punched up loosely at the throat.
Their skirts, daintily held clear OF
the ground by white gloved fingers,
revealed glistening high patent
leather shoes and the slim lines of
neat ankles and shapely insteps, veiled
with black silk open-work stockings.

Washington, d. c., May 5.-The
regulars today refrained from further
effort to pass the rate bill. They are
waiting until President Taft returns
from his western trip so he can ex-
anime the wreckage Of the railroad
bill and decide what action for the
leaders to take. Indications are that
there will be some hot sessions be-
tween Taft and the senate leaders
when they meet One veteran said
he would tell the president he had
no business travelling around when
important bills were threatened.
Through the formation yesterday Of
an organization which its leaders
claim represents a clear majority OF
the entire senate and to be made up
wholly OF regular republicans. a move
ment was started to settle whether the
senate shall remain conservative, be-
come radical. or be thrown into po-
litical chaos as far as concerns any
coherent policy on the administration
program.
Senator Aldrich called the regular
republicans together and confronted
possible political effect OF their ap-
parent defeat at the hands of the in
surgent republicans and democrats in
the fight over the traffic agreement
section OF the administration railroad
bill. He asked his associates wheth-
er they were ready to submit to DOM
ination by such a combination. Any
such surrender, he warned them,
meant failure OF the Taft policies and
the downfall Of the conservative con-
troll. not only in congress but in the
republican party generally.
Some one reminded Senator Aid
rich that senator's then gathered to-
gether were not in agreement on all
points, whereupon he replied they
must get together and agree to stand
together and let the details be Sec
ondary. otherwise. he said, congress
would adjourn without accomplishing
a single item of the Taft program.
The entire tone of this conference
was belligerent toward the insurgents
This was the dominant note: Let us
get together and stand as unit
against every insurgent proposition
II the insurgents propose anything
good, we'll take II over bodily and
put it through as our own; II they
propose anything bad We'll stamp II

Though woolbuyers have been
fiocking to Pendleton and other east
ern oregon points for several weeks
none of this seasons clips has so far
been sold, so far as can be ascertain
ed. Growers are apparently of the
opinion that strong influences are at
work to keep the price lower than ac-
tual conditions justify and they are
therefore showing a disposition to hold
until sales day Last year there were
no sales days for the reason that all
the wool was disposed of at satisfac-
tory prices before the time Eor the
sales arrived.
1t is said that last years activity on
the part of the buyers was due to an
effort to break the Chicago Storage
Wool Warehouse plan. This failed,
however. IL there ever really was any
such scheme on foot and growers
are displaying more Independence this
year than ever before
