The conviction OF Hyde should put
a q~uietus on the over enthusiastic

South Dakota has suffered much from

shining example, aud his conviction
is likely to throw a decided scare

For a few days it looked doubtful
whether the report OF the Tariff
Board on the wool industry would be
given to the country, owing to the
opposition in the house OF representa-
tives to placing it in print-the rea-
son being assigned that it was too
long and dry for popular consump-
ton. However publicity finally won
out, and the country will be able to
study the wool question in all its
phases by securing a copy OF the re-
port.
