The constitution Of Panama pro-
vides that no one can be elected pres-

that office for the six months next
preceding his election. The real pur-
pose Of the provision is that no
president in office shall have the DOW

force an election which might be
questionable. In a republic as tur-

There are fox hunting scenes picturing
the "bloods" gathering at their meets
against a background of ivy-clad church
and peaceful English elms, or scurrying
across the open country with their packs
Of hounds. There are prints of old beaver

HERE FOR BIG WOOL MEET
Secretary Of National Wool Growers
Comes to Convention.
TELLS OF THE WORK TO BE DONE
Mcclure Talks of the Price OF Wool.
the Tariff and what the Com
sumer Has 10 Pay for
His Clothes.

s. W. Mcclure Of Gooding. Ida. secre-
tary OF the National Wool Growers as
sociation. reached Omaha Friday, this
time to stay until the national convention
next week.
Mr.. Mcclure says the tariff is to be
the absorbing topic Of discussion at the
meeting ami has written the following on
the subject for The Bee
let us see what the tariff upon wool
Is costing the American people, and
whether or not the American wool grower
Is in any way responsible for the high
price Of clothing at retail.
Cloth for mems clothing weighs any
where from ten to sixteen ounces to the
yard. The average weight of a yard Of
cloth for medium weight goods is fourteen
ounces TO the yard. To make the average
mans suit of clothes consisting Of three
pieces, three and one-half yards OF cloth
are required. so that the weight Of the
cloth in this suit Of clothes is three pounds
and one ounce. As the wool comes from
the sheep 1t must be washed and secured
before using. After this is done con-
siderable waste occurs in converting the
wool into cloth, so that to make this suit
weighing three pounds and one ounce ap-
proximately ten and one-half pounds OF
greasy wool would be required.
The average price Of wool in the west
this year did not exceed IA cents per
pound, but in order to be fair let us as
sumo that the wool grower receives lf
cents per pound for his wool. If this be
true, then for all the wool required to
make the average all wool suit of clothes
the American wool grower received the
enormous sum of S1.6S. Now, remember
that3this is an all wool suit. large enough
for the average-slzed man. 1t is made
OF pure American wool, and contains
neither cotton nor shoddy. This is a suit
that your tailor will charge you from
$40 to $50 for, and the storekeeper will
charge from $50 to $40. With this show
ing is it fair for the American people to
endeavor TO destroy our sheep industry
blythe removal of the little tariff thai
we now get?
THE tariff on wool has probably in.
creased the cost of the wool in this sui

believe that If it were removed that q

The manufacturer sold me the three anc
one-half, yards of cloth-for $455. But tn,
tailor, with me furnishing the cloth
wanted as much as $i5 to make it into

of contradiction that at the present price
there is not a suit of clothes in the cit,
of Omaha that the American wool grove
received as much as $3.50 for furnishini
all the wool required to make it, and I
