of Kentucky. As to the latter he can
hardly be regarded as a possibility ,
eldefiy for the reason tlmat lie is not
classed among time leading cxpotlents of
time free silver policy. While probably
imaving as much ability as the 111ssnorl

that lme is time logical camididnie if the
unbound couveution is do minmited by the
free sliver mneu , but this does not seoul
to make any very strong or extended
hupresslml. ' 1'be inferenee Is that there
is a great deal of doubt aboutt the Misr
souirinu's availability with time supporters -
porters of ( rite silver who are not denio-
cents , but who it is expected will be
drawn to the support of a free silver
candidate. 7'hc leaders Of the clement

It Is quite possible that there will be
repeated at Chicago time history of 1572 ,

There is a movement to make
Senator Teller time candidate of
the Chicago convention and if

nment Is not unhikely 1o tithe on great
strength. It is said that seine very
earnest work is being ( lone to press the
clnhn of Senator Teller for time Chicago

fout tvolldl be endorsedby the populist ,
coiveutiou nud 1)y the cnnventiot of the
natlonal sliver party , both of which will
uteet subsequent to time convention at
Chicago. 'l'imey urge , above all , that
Senator Teller stands for time embodi-
nie11t of time free silver idea and that his
nomidnatiot would arouse enthusbdsm
for that idea in all time states west of
the Alleghenies. So fur as time Colorado
senator is concerned , there Is little
1'085011 to doubt that lie would accept n
notnluntion at the hands of time free silver -
ver deniocats. All he is as a public
mall h0 owes to time republican party
and he will go into the St. Tools cotven-
tlon a5 a delegate of lint party , but lie
has udrtsathy auiounced his deterumintion :
to desert time party if it declares for time
gold stauhrd. If , therefore , time free
silver deutoeats wet Mr. Teller they
may he assured of two things-that he
will be given the opportunity to withdraw -
draw from the republican party aid
that he will accept a noutiitniion at timeir
hanls. ( If the Chicago convention Simouid

A STRICRRN 18'DUSTRP.
Senator Dlorrill said In his recent
spceclm hum the senate that time democratic
tariff lmas made simeip husbandry no
longer successful in any American state
and this most attractive national imi-
dustry , if free trade supporters ] mold
the power , is to be wholly and forever
abandoned and extluguished. "Now , "
said time senator , "while time woolen
mills of Great Britain are busy and
have nothluig to couuplaln of , lucre in
time IJnited States it is differeuit. " Time
statistics of wool imports sloww how
time industry of wool growing in this
country has been stricken. The imports -
ports of woo ) In time year ending June
0 , 189"a , were ° _ 06,000,000 , pounds. Time
first nine months of time present fiscal
year show Imports of very nearly 200-
000,000 pounds , assuring a total for
time twelve months largely in excess of
that of time preceding fiscal year. In
a letter to IIon Ifichnrd P. Blu id of
Missouri , Mr. Moreton Frewen , an En ; ;
iislm free sllverite and free trader , referring -
ferring to the depression in Australia ,
said that but for free wool In our tariff
the situation of Australia must by this
time have been desperate. Not oni'
has time production of wool in Australia
lutgely increased during time last few
years , but time price lugs fallen 60 per
cent , so that America11 wool growers
imave been suibjected by time present tar-
1ff to this destructive compotitlon , tor
getimer with that from other wool-grow-
lug countries , and this is not mill , for
the democratic tariff has encouraged
nn clormous importation of siudddy ,
displacing to that extent how-grown
wool. It may not be creditable to
American mauufaetnrers that they use
this adulterant a > , d counterfeit , but
they may fluid some pallintiou for doing
so in the greatly lacreased competition
of foreign woolen goods.
At time beginning of 1801 time number
of slmecp in time Uulted' ' States was over
17,000,000 , vahred at Xl25,000,000. In
two years there was a loss of over
6,000,000 sheep and time value of those
rclnnitiug was reduced on&lmlf. It is. .
needless to say that there has been no
improvement in this industry since and
timero will not be wlmile time present
tariff law condoles In force. Time blow
to the wool-growing iudnstry 'bus been
most severely felt min time far western
