tation has done no one any good, and
under no circumstances can 1t benefit
the consumer. They promised you two
years ago that when the duty was re-
moved from hides that you could buy
leather and shoes cheaper. The result
has been that the government has lost
s., 600, 900 per year in revenue, and the
consumer has paid more for all leather
goods. The same will happen with
wool when the duty is reduced.
The census of 1900 showed 765, 0O0
wool growers in the United States,
and the next census should snow over
100000 individual growers. You
cannot bring financial distress TO
900. 900 American farmers, without
disturbing in a large degree the COM
merciaI progress Of the country. The
sheep of the United States are valued
at s233. 900 and the lands upon
which they feed are valued at 100000,
900 more Thus the sheep industry rep
resents an investment of $535,0O0,000
Is this to be destroyed purely in the
interest of political expediency?
The democratic House has made an
enviable record for hatred of the sheep
industry They passed the reciprocity
treaty. admitting sheep free from Can
ada and giving the Canadian the right
to drive his sheep into this country,
shear them and leave the wool here.
free of duty They passed the Farmers
Free List bill, removing all the duty
from mutton and placing our mutton in
competition with the cheap meats pro-
duced by the half civilized natives OF
South America and other countries.
Now they seek to complete the de-
struction of the sheep industry by plac-
ing a duty on wool which will make
its production in this country impos
sible
The wool growers Of the nation only
ask for a square deal They have in
dorsed the idea of tariff board to as
certain the difference in cost of produc-
ing wool in this and foreign countries.
The representative of the tariff board
has gone to the home of the wool
growers and has been welcomed there,
in an endeavor TO obtain the true facts
as they relate to the sheep industry.
The tariff board has sent expert &C
Icountants TO many of the sheep ranches.
who have gone over the books of the
sheepmen in a very careful manner.
This board will report it's findings to
the American people next December.
and the wool growers only ask that
action upon the wool tariff shall be
delayed until this report makes it pos

said of The Contest is that it is worthy of
the author In every field he has entered,
as a writer of modern realistic tales, detective
stories, historical romance, as well as ro-
nance of this day, Sir Arthur has had
succession of triumphs. And these tales of
the early Christian era are classical not only
in the setting but in their quality.
You know, perhaps, that A. Conan
Doyle, as he was known before he was
knighted in 1902, began writing fiction when
he was practising physician in .Southsea.
His father was an artist, and his uncle,
Richard Doyle, was the famous caricaturist
of aPunch" Sir Arthur was born in Edin-
burgh, and was graduated from the famous
university there.
The practice of medicine did not appeal
to him so much as writing; but his experience
in that profession gave him much valuable
material, of which he made use at once.
Those tales, afterward published under the
title of "A Study in Scarlet appeared in
current periodicals and attracted attention
