Search for Finer Wool.

The possibility Of developing new
sources Of fine wool has been sug-
gested. Referring in Nature TO new
search for the golden fleece, Prof. ].
G. Ewart of the University of Edin-
burgh states that the first domesticat-
ed sheep in Europe were undoubtedly
introduced about 1000 b. c.. and that
nearly pure descendants of this an
cient Neolithic breed-a urial, Owls
viegnei-still survive on the small I'M
inhabited island OF Soay tSheep is
land), near ST. Kilda. Crosses be-
tween Soay- and Southdown sheep
yield excellent mutton, with wool Of
remarkable strength and quality; and
the late discoveries Indicate that
crosses of the urial with other wild
types may yield still finer and more
beautiful Wool. THESE discoveries in
clude that of wool forming the inner
coat of several of the wild sheep of
Asia. This wool is longer than that
of the Soay sheep, and decidedly finer
than and quite as white as superfine
Australian merino. regarded as the
finest and whitest wool in the world.

WAGES NOT GUT HERE BY OPEN SHOP ASSN
 OFFICIAL DECLARES

At a recent meeting of the Phoenix Open Shop association a resolution was passed to be given publicity to the ef- feet that wages have not been cut by open shop employers in the city of Phoenix and that the open shop asso- station was st.ll operating and was Sunctioning 100 per cent in the matter of upholding the American plan in in- dustry in this city.
 This resolution was passed to quiet the unauthorized rumors that wages have been cut by open shop employers. At the present time the open shop association is furnishing employers with workmen of every description and practically every man registered with the association is employed. In secur ing work for any man, the fact is not taken into consideration whether or not he carries a union card, the only re- quirement being that he shall work on the open shop plan. The association eXacts no fees whatever from either the employer or the employe, the transac- ton being made for the one purpose alone of finding the right man for the right job"
 Working men are coming to know that the open shop association affords them greater protection in their rights as working men than their union, and great many union men feel that the function of the union has become purely fraternal and cannot again ex- ercise the arbitrary control over its members and their relation with their employers which it formerly did.
 The Phoenix Open Shop association represents neither the employers nor the employees" said George IT. Todd president of the association, and the public is coming to know that the workingmen's rights as we'll as the em- ployers' rights are best protected by an organization which is not dominated by either faction. Employers who were formerly in favor of the closed shop are now operating open shop and finc greater degree of efficiency thaT they ever had any reason to believe wa. possible. Mechanics who formerly were dominated by their union off cials and walking delegates are sur prised to find that the employers ar, inclined to meet them more than hal way in adjustment of questions whicl are to their mutual interest.
 The labor press has repeatedly re ferred to the open shop as union haters and we have not taken the trouble t either affirm Or deny the accusation oeliving that 1t were the better par to demonstrate the fact that the Phoe nix Open Shop association was abso lutely sincere m it's desire to ad1us industrial conditions for the benefit O the public first of all and for the bene Tit of the employer and employees equal ly, and for the employees in particular whether or not the individual was member of a trades union or not.
 The secretary of the association ha repeatedly placed mechanics on. wor who carried union cards. The onl stipulation being that when they wer placed on the work they were not t interfere with other men who did no carry cards"

Campbell as private secretary of Col. J. E. Thompson, personal representa- tive of Governor Campbell during Obregon's inauguration, but was pre- vented making the trip by the illness of his wife.
 Senor Pecina said yesterday that all information reaching him is to the eff feet that General Obregon will be able to weld into harmonious solidarity all the Mexican political factions and lead his country forward on the path of achievement and prosperity. He takes no stock in the reports of new insur rections and says that, even if a few dissatisfied politicians attempt to start something their efforts are foredoomed to failure.
 He is particularly pleased with the cabinet selections made by President | Obregon. These men are, without eX- Eception, the best who could have beer ) nominated to the responsible position.
