BOISE, Idaho. July % -Sheepmen Of
southern Idaho are not pleased over the
new Smoot wool tariff measure and II
finds little favor among them. The new
bill was introduced by Senator Smoot OF
Utah this week and is now In the hands
of the proper senate committee. The
wool men here are OF the opinion that
they are 'in for It," in that public opin-
ion demands q reduction of the tariff and
in some form or other are determined to
see that wool is on the list. They declare
however, that the Smoot bill is no i'm
provement over the former proposed
legislation
1t was pointed out today by local wool
men that an alleged joker is buried In
The Smoot measure. They cite that IT is
located in that provision OF the measure
which permits the manufacturers to I'm
port their pick of the light woods which
shrink 80 per cent at a rate of nine cents
Idaho wool which shrlnts so per cent un
der securing. If the buyers can obtain
competitive wool which shrinks hut 80
per cent the wool men declare IT Is easy
to figure out Just where the native grow
er Will get off. This they say. Will easily
cut the protection OF nine cents pound
| on all classes OF wool. as provided In the
| Smoot bill down to between four and
| five cents,
For some strange reason the public

] what they arc expected TO pay for such
goods In practically every store in the

wool situation
