GLOOMY VIEW
AS To WOOL:
INDUSTRY
ACCORDING TO SECRETARY Me
CLURE FREE TRADE Is Full.
OF PERIL TO MASTERS.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 23.--
Administration leaders in the
house of representatives, in MAX
ing their fight recently to retain
raw wool on the free list, quoted
President Wilson as saying that
free wool would not hurt American
wool growers, ''as he understands
wool was as high in London as in
the United States This asser-
ton was called to the attention of
S. w. Mcclure, secretary of the
National Wool Growers Association
qnd he made this comment:
President MisinfOrmed-
If the President made any such
assertion as this he is grossly mis-
informed about the state of the
wool market. Over a long period
Of years wool has averaged from
four to seven and a half cents
per pound higher in the United
States than any other market i'll
the world. In order to determine
the relative price of wool here
and abroad, | have sent represen-
tative samples to the Boston and
London markets. All of these
samples ranged from five and
quarter to seven and a third cents
per pound higher in the United
States than they did in London:
These tests were made last fall
and winter, and prove beyond dis
pute that under free wool our
prices would have fallen from five
and a quarter to seven and one
third cents per pound. OF course
at this time the price of our wool
is falling so d. TO reach the Lon
don free list basis, for cur 1918
clip will not be manufactured un-
til the present free trade bill has
become law.
What Wilson Bill Did.
When the Wilson bill was pass
ed in 1894 the wool grower was
then assured that it would not hurt
him, as The foreign price was as
high as the domestic price, but re-
gardless of such assurances, the
Wilson bill was followed by a re-
duction of 80 per cent in the price
OF wool which brought disaster
to the sheep industry and all allied
industries. The sheep industry
never recovered from free wool in
1894, and free wool in 1913 will
wipe it out of existence.
"Even had the president been |
correct in stating that wool was
as high abroad as in this country, (
it would not be an argument in
favor of free wool. for if a tariff |
on wool does not raise the price
of our wool it can not then be
doing any one any harm, and we
know that it raises an average of
S16,OO0,00O III revenue which should
not be thrown away unless some
compensation is to be gained some.
where.
Means End of Industry.
If wool is to be placed on the
free list, it must be done with the
full understanding that it will de-
;troy the American sheep industry
md seriously embarrass all allied
Industries The ruin of the sheep
industry will be seriously felt
the nation, for be it re-
nembered that there is S580000,-
400 invested in our sheep business.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 22-
The people in the Eastern end of
Bannock County in the vicinity of
Bancroft and Chesterfield. have
made application to the Interior
Department for the purchase of
sufficient water from the Black
foot reservoir to irrigate from 90
900 to 10000 acres of land. Sena-
tor Brady visited the Interior De-
partment and learned from the Sec
retary of the Interior that the mat
ter would have to be handled by
the Indian Bureau and the Recla-
nation Service.
Senator Brady. in company with
Congressman Smith, then visited
the Reclamation Service and the
Indian Bureau and urged upon
them the necessity for immediate
action in the matter for the reas-
on that unless water was taken
from the BlackfOOt reservoir addi-
tiOnal water will have to be sup
piled for the Indian reservoir
from some other source. This
could be accomplished at this
time but if delayed it might result
in the water being used on other
PAOJttIo. dilQ II lil4S MdLEl - uOl
secured at this time these lands
will forever be without irrigation.
These departments seemed to be
favOrably impressed with the pre-
SentatlOn of the matter and an in
vestigatiOn will be made at once,
and the officers of the Farmers
Union and the committee in charge
of the matter will have an OppOr-
tunlty to present the matter per-
sOnally to the representatives of
the Government.
Senator Brady and Congressman
Smith took UP in detail with the
secretary Of the interior the mat
ter of the Brown Bear and Horse
shoe coal claims in Fremont COun-
ty. The unfairness of the pres
ent demands Of the Government
We're made very plain to the sec
retary and he has taken the mat
ter under advisement.
These coal claims are owned by
idaho citizens who have develop
ed the same in good faith, and they
should have the hearty cO-opera-
ton and support of the Government
instead of the Government trying
to prevent them in developing this
property. when means so mucn 10
