TINKERING WITH SCHEDULE "K'
tesm

The Idaho sheepman feels himself
slipping" SO far as any possible prof
it's from his spring crop of wool are
concerned. And as the wool market,
at least to some extent, governs the
price of sheep both as stock, and as
a food supply for immediate use, he
is anticipating that the prices of
lambs and mutton throughout the
present year will be subject to un-
healthy fluct, atoms. All this gloom
is predicated on the fact that action
will be attempted in amending sched-
ule X, the wool schedule, just about
the time that the wool grower will
shear his sheep, and market his
lambs, and that while the congress
sional discussion is producing a fer
ment, the prices of these sources OF
his livelihood will be depressed be-
low a living point.
The western wool grower contends
and in this he is borne out by the
facts, as the past history of the in
dustry discloses them, that congress
sional agitation inevitably works
damage to him. He desires above all
things that what is to be done, shall
be quickly done, SO that whatever
damage is to be inflicted on the in
dustry, may be known at once, and
the industry be left to recover from
it's wounds, adjust itself to changed
conditions, and as nearly as possible,
recover the ground that has been
lost.
What he fears To- is that the
threat of the Democratic ways and
mean committee may be carried out
and that action on the wool schedule
may be deferred until the very last.
If it is intended by the Democrats
to inflict the greatest possible dam
age on the industry, they are going
at it in the right way. No n in the
state of Idaho or of any of the west
ern states, will regard radical reduc-
ton of the tariff on raw wool 9TH
er than as a misfortune, but better
that now. than the threat of 1t de-
%veloping into a reality later in the
season.
There is a phase of the wool sit
uation which it would be well for the
Democrats, who are DESTROYS OF pass
ing a schedule which shall create a
revenue, without providing other
than the least degree of protection, to
ponder over. 1t is entirely possible
that the present tariff law as it al
fects wool and woolens is wrong, and
that the ultimate producer is made
to bear a greater burden than he de-
serves. But it is certainly true that
this schedule does not unduly. protect
the wool grower. The tariff scehdule
if wrong, is wrong only in the event
that it furnishes opportunity for the
middleman to profit unduly in the
consideration of the wooden schedule
proposed. Great care should be TAX
en- not to blindly look only to the
creation of a revenue from the i'm
portation of needed foreign woods
while stopping the taking OF exces
sive profits by the handlers of wool
en- fabrics. There is a great indus
try at stake-an industry upon which
the prosperity of a number of west
ern states may be said to depend. AL
the things that are desirable in
wool schedule may be had and at tn
same time the wool growers may b.
fairly protected. This is what shoul'
be the aim of congress.
