Saturday. when Sir Charles Edwards,
the justly famous piano tuner, turned
up like the proverbial bad penny,
after having been given the alterna-

City of Rawlips. This gentleman is

taken up their residence in Rawlins

aggressive and his attitude was at all
times so belligerent that complaints
regarding him We're numerous and
came to the ears of both city and

the former arrest and fine. He was
at that time given his choice between

.SHEARING Pens
ARE shut Down
LANDING HALTS sREARING FOR TWO
WEEKS, Two THIRDS OF
sheep ALREADY SR0RN

There has been a decided lull in
wool activity during the past week,
due to the fact that nearly all of the
clips which have been taken off have
either been sold or consigned to
warehouses In the east. while shear
ing has been temporarily sidetracked
by lambing, which is now going on
in all flocks OF the county.
Notwithstanding the record of 81
cents. which is still the highest local
sale made public, there Is a strong
upward feeling among flockmasters
whose wool is still unshorn and un-
sold. One of the most prominent in
this class remarked the other day
that he would not accept SO cents If
offered. There seems to be an inn
preston that the market will event.
ually settle around 40 cents, and that
there will be q more keen demand as
soon as 9hearing is resumed. This
idea finds encouragement in reports
of an easier money market in the
east and a consequent tendency to
speculate and to endeavor to profit
by future price advances which all
agree must come.
This forty-cent idea obtains quite
generally in other Wyoming wool
centers according to exchanges which
reach The Republican, and is appar-
emily well founded. Sales at this
price are reported from Big Horn.
Lincoln and Park counties, while
from Converse county comes q re-

for two big clips, the buyers offer

Fully two-thirds Of the Carbon
County clip has been taken off to
date and practically all shearing pens
are shut down and will remain so un-
til after lambing is over. Az soon
as flocks a be brought in from the
lambing grounds the remainder OF
the local wool will be sheared and
submitted to buyers. whose principals
will have had a week or two to con-

Another encouraging feature of the
