MAGNUS BROWN HAS
RETURNED TO
THE CITY
President of Wool Growers
Cooperative Milling Co.
Arrives from North Where
Has Been for Some Time.

Magnus Brown, president Of the
Wool Growers Co-Operatlve Milling
company. which some time ago pur-
chased and renovated the old woolen
mili IN this city, arrived today from
Minnesota and Wisconsin. where he
has been on business for several
month";. Brown will be remembered
because OF his newspaper alteration
with william M. wood. president OF
the wool trust, last February.
Mr.. brown IL quite pessimlstic
about opening the local mills. lie
said that support was lacking and that
northern capital, whscli II had been
hoped 20 draw into the enterprise,
war OF the opinion that the machin.
cry here was not fitted for turning
out good goods. MIR. Brown said:
Il personally believe that the local
mills are plenty good enough 10 min
blankets. flannels and other standard
woolen goods. but there does not
seem to be much use In trying 20 put
the scheme through here. We are
thinking very seriously about making
our initial experiment elsewhere. You

wool IL worth. 10 min II well. paying
what the labor IL worth and then 20
sell the R9Ods to the consumer at "A

do that here, on account OF the OPP
position either passive or active,
which we are encountering.
THE lack OF support we are re-
cciving IL rot ali Albuuuorque fault.
but M any rate. we must have favor

paying the wool grower what his wool

ditians every where are bulllah. al
though there are reports that the
