Colorado Wool Valued at $4,000, 1000

Denver.-Prediction Of the value Of
the Colorado wool clip for 1914 place
the figure at s2,O000O and In some
instances even higher. A peculiarity
of the expected financial returns from
wool is the fact that gains in prices
have ben made under free wool. The
prices on which bids are being made
for this years clip range from l to 2
cents per pound higher than IA year
ago. Eastern buyers have already con
tracted for fully $50,00O worth of Colo
RADIO wool. while some growers have
declined to contract their wool at l3
cents or IA cents. believing the price
will go higher Shortage in the sup
ply of stored WOOL due princaplly to
the fact that manufacturers used their
supplies in anticipation of cheaper
wool under the new tariff law is CIV
EN- as the reason for the advance in
prices.

CHAPTER VI.

John RAwn, Prominent Citizen.
The blare and blaze of American
life went on in all its capitals Of indus
try. Buildings sprang up. factories
poured their smoke increasingly into
the sky. Men ran hither and thither
like ants, busy about what seemed
to them OF importance. Vast hives of
heaped-up stone twice daily poured
out their population of small creatures.
some Of them crippled. hurt, shorn in
the battle Of life. their faces pale.

But there came sort Of hush over
all the country, as though an eclipse
were passing, or some gloom cast BY
a cloud coming between these cities
and the sun. Men said that business
was not so good as 1t should be. though
the country was richer than ever.
None understood the popular unrest.
Many pondered. many attempted to
explain, but they found all save the
easy and obvious explanation. The
masses remained morose, dissatisfied.
Pamphlets appeared. In the journals
pretending to give voice to popular
trend OF thought there were now to
be seen many screeds from many un-
known men. Some men said that
prices should rise, others that rates of
transportation should rise. but that
wages should decrease. Others said
that wages should Increase few
