BUYERS TRY
TO BEAR MARKET FOR
WOOL MAC HOKE SAYS
Secretary State Wool Growers
Association Declares Prices
Are Bound to Continue Good

With wool in the Northwest still .on
the sleeps backs awaiting that time
when the sunshine becomes quite lot
warmer than it is now before shear
ing will start, local sheep men declare
that the eastern buyers are using the
same old bearish tricks as fyore IN
their effort to put the wool market
under big, heavy, wet blanket.
During February some little excite
ment was caused when it became
noised abroad that five clips in Nor
row county had been contracted on a
| basis of 80 cents a pound with one
dollar a fleece in some cases being
| advanced to the grower
| Since that time there has been lit

state with the exception of line OF
talk being put out by the representa-
tives of the eastern houses to the eff

bound to go lower in price.

| problem" Mac Hoke, secretary of the
Oregon Wool Growers association ad-
mitted today. "The chief contributing
factor to the uncertainty in which the
buyer and seller both find themselves
is when the permanent wool tariff
bill will be enacted and put into cfr
feet. If we knew that, then both
buyer and seller would know fairly
definitely just what to expects
Hoke holds to the belief that the
position of wool is very strong an6

EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
NEWSP APER PUBLIC FUNCTION

Consider the value of the newspaper
in the operation of government. The
direct primary would be a complete
farce without the aid of the newspaper.
Even the candidates for the more
prominent offices in the state can see
but a small fraction OF the voters who
must pass upon their qualifications at
the primaries or in the general cleo
ton. Thav can only reach fragment
Of the electorate with their printed mat
ter and personal letters.
Intelligent choice of public officials
is Impossible If the people who are
doing the choosing know anything
about the personality of the candidates
they must choose between and less
about the important. policies they ad-
vocate.
Here is where the public service OF
the newspaper is exemplifled TO the
highest degree BY giving space day
after day. without money and without
price to political news. the newspapers
bring TO thousands who otherwise
would not even hear of the candidates
the story of their activities, a de-
scrip:ion of their personalities, their
pictures and the details of the policies
which they advocate.
In addition to this the newspaper
gives valuable data on election details
polling places and the results, which
are not given by the state, or which
are given in faulty or DELAYED form.
Every one knows the large part th'
newspaper plays in serving the public
in election years, though few have
thought OF It specifically.
All this is one reason why II is un
just for the government 10 impose upol
