the sheepmen OF Nevada by the re-
duction of tariff on wool. From the
bank accounts stacked UP by the
sheepmen Of Nevada il would appear
that the sheep growers have Jared
we'll under high tariff and the people
have paid the price.
The butchers at the present time
are paying the sheep men from S. to
50 per head for sheep. This does
not include the wool clip which the
owner takes off. amounting on an av-
erage to 81 per head.
There are probably 100 sheep men
in the State Of Nevada. On the 9th
er hand there are 10000 people within
the state. just why 100 men
should be protected as against $4,000
consumer is hard to figure.
With free wool in the market it
would be possible for the consumer
to wear wool clothes for the price he
is paying for cotton. Suits that
should cost $40 now COM At SIS,
mainly because wool is protected.
Across the line in Canada where
practically the same price is paid for
labor suits and all wooden stuffs can
be purchased for one-half the price
asked in America. The people are
paying for the get-rich-quick policy

Go to your butcher to-day and buy
a piece of lamb or mutton. You will
soon realize why the sheepmau has
grown rich. The sheepmen OF Neva-
da have all made fortunes. A man
with a few thousand head of sheep
has had a better thing than a gold
mine. He has taken no chances as
the people must eat and must wear
clothes. Ii is time that the shcepman
