Wool men ot Douglas county are greatly worried over the prospects for the market this year. Wool has accumulated ill large quamttti'S in the warehouses of the United. States and the high price of clotnuig is pre venting it front being made into gar ments. Thia tact will doubtless greatly reduce the price paid for wool this year, and It will be difficult to secure a suitable market for the clip. Late statistics have shown that more wool is in storage than Is con sumed by tbe country In a year, and consequently buyers are not going to be anxious to pay high prices for the wool this season. There is sow a bill before congress which has for Us purpose the enforcement of a meas ure to place a stamp on all wool goods In order that shoddy may be detected from virgin wool goods. More than 1,288,000,0(0 pounds of virgin wool have accumulated In the storehouses of the world since the beginning of the world war, accord ing to statistics compiled by the Na tional Sheep and Wool Bureau of America. When the world's wool clip of 1920 is completed, a few weeks hence, this amounUwlll be in creased by 2,500,000.000 pounds. It la expected. In spite of the high price of wool fabrics, the storehouses of America alone contained 700, 000,000 pounds of virgin wool last September, ten months after the signing of the armistice, or 100,000,- 000 pounds more than the country's annual consumption.

Hig gle, whose age Is 23 years, was at times rational but his Injuries re ceived at the battle fronts in France left him mentally unbalanced and although the county officials made every effort to have the government take care of him in cie of their hos pitals. Judge Stewart received or ders from the Seattle department to commit him to the Insane asylum tmd was obliged to abide by that rul ing. The affair Is a most deplorable one and tho news of his auicide was a terrible shock to his sister, who at present la residing in Sutheriin. He- cause other patients at the hospital complained of his suoring. Higgle walked out of the Institution, un noticed yesterday morning and wen to the loft of a nearby barn, where he killed himself. Early In the day e had complained to the .officials at the hospital that several patients had awakened him during the nignr because of his snoring. An boar later Riggie was missed. Besides his sister In Snthertln, the young man Is survived by a father who re sides in Dallas. H had an excel lent service record and was over seas, for tnany months during the war with Germany. During his time spent at. the front he was wounded several times and spent some time In foreign hospitals. His strenuous service was no doubt responsible tor his mental relapse. He was gassed during the battle of Chateau Thierry and In the Argonne forest, besides fustainlng shell- injuries to . the knee. Shortly after he wss committed to the state hospital the Vntpcua Pst of the American Lesion took up cor respondence with the government of ficials and attempted to gain his re lease and have him replaced nnd-ir the care of specialists In one of t'te numerous government instltutlon.t. The legion was unsuccessful in their attempts, however, and received no satisfaction whatever. Just prior to his commitment, Riggie stood before Judge Stewart nnd with tears streaming down his cheeks said, "Judge, it's hell to be sent down to Salem after all I'vj gone through over there." It was one of the saddest cases ever to come before the county officials. The rank injustice which was done tms rioy should not go unnoticed. He was deserving of better treatment and the local Legion members are highly Incensed over the fact that he was re fused admittance to one of Vnclcl lthln Say's' hospitals. compel manufacturers to stamp "wool cloth with the percentage or cotton or shoddy used In Its manu facture.

In brief, ts a fac simile, as near as could be obtained, of a thrilling tragedy which almost took place within the confines of tbe county, and a true representation of the 0-miIe race to the scene of the ciimo taken by tbe sheriff and the coroner, and what they found when they got there.

Kilter: "It's a child,' til right.

The dealers are greatly aroured over a report that gasoline has been aold at exorbitant prices. A complete Inves tigation was made and the charges In all but one Instance were refuted. In the one case It is claimed that gaso line was sold at tt per gallon. A committee was appointed to secure affidavits and In the event a substan tiation is secured the person making the sale will be turned over to the authorities on a profiteering charge.
