One Seems to Ho Kcully Happy.
Idaho In not the only state where
woolgrowers are having trouble In
getting prices they deem fulr for their
product this year. The Knit Lake Re
publican, In a recent Issue, nays:
Idaho and Montana woolgrowers
are still sparring with the buyers anil
between this strife and a season of ex
tremely unfavorable weather, the In
dications are that the clip will not be
cleaned up before the first of August,
at lnf l wI(h iHier thnn iual.
At present, shipments are at a stand
still. 1
Discouraged by the slowness on the
part of buyers In the field to meet
their, terms, the woolgrowers banded
together and formed a pool for the
purpose of combining their clips and
sending them east where they were to
be stored and sold through an agent
directly to the manufacturing con
sumers. Large buyers In Salt Lake
sny this move Is regarded as a bluff
on the part of the growers and ex
press Uie opinion that later develop
ments will prove buyers have been of
fering all the wool was worth and
that they will eventually get the bulk
of the clip remaining unsold around
ID cents. In support of the theory
that the combination of growers car
rles with It an element of "bluff,"
buyers say It has been decided to hold
special sales at various points where
buyers will submit sealed bids for the
clips offered. The growers say that,
falling to sell the 6,000,000 or more
pounds ot fleece In this manner at
satisfactory prices, they will send the
whole lot to eastern warehouses In
charge of a selling agent.
Traveling freight agents In the In
ter-mountaln region Bay their titles
should be changed to "wool loaders.'
They are having troubles too numer
ous to mention. One of the Bait Lake
boys returned to "civilization." as he
called It, after having spent ll days
loading one car, and the agent for
another road who started loading a
car last . week wires that he hopes
to come home Saturday If he can fill
the car by that time. The cold rains
of the laHt two weeks have caused
henvy losses to sheepgrowera and
some have postponed shearing Indef
initely. As for the railroads, they are Inter
ested principally In the threat of the
Idaho growers to send their wool east
In a bunch, for this would mean a
congestion of traffic In the west erl
ously. If, however, the movement
continues ns It has been for the last
two weeks, It will mean more disagree
able work for the "wool loaders" and
no congestion for the railroads.

Sewell came east last summer. He
quickly rose from an apprentice boy
to a first-class jockey. Charlie Rowe,
owner of Colonial Girl, that beat Her
mls In, the $50,000 World's Fair han
dicap, soon discovered that Sewell
had great ability, and he engaged him
at a big salory. The boy went to New
Orleans last winter, and at the fair
ground track soon rode so many win
ners that In spite of an Illness of sev
eral weeks, he managed to hold the
lead among the riders at that track.
Nlcol Jumped Into prominence last
season as the pilot of Sysonby. He
rode that horse In the majority of his
races. James R. Keene, who was so
Impressed with the way he rode the
champion that twice he paid him
$1000 to come from the west to guide
his favorite In big races on the local
tracks. During the winter Nlcol went
to New Orleans and at tho city park
track soon was the leading jockey.

Contractor Had Thirteen Hour to
Spare When Completed.
The last spike In the Vale Mal
heur Valley railroad was driven and
the construction train arrived In the
city promptly at 11 o'clock the morn
ing of the 10th, says the Vale Gazette.
The ceremonies attending the comple
tion of the railroad from the Oregon
Short Line to the county seat of Mal
heur county were In the nature of a
demonstration by the citizens of the
city and surrounding country, who as
sembled to witness the entrance of
the first railroad train Into Vale.
Steve Culver, the contractor for the
construction work, whs obliged under
his agreement to finish the work by
12 o'clock Sunday night. It was pre
dicted some days ago, when the storm
visited this section, that Mr. Culver
would fall to make good, but with an
Increased force of men and teams he
overcame the difficulties and complet
ed the task, with 13 hours to spare.
Regular train service between this
place and Ontario will be Inaugurated
at once, and the result of rail trans
portation means a great boom for
Vale and the Malheur valley.
Three 18-Year-Old Uoyw nn Eastern
Circuit Earn $20,000.
Three little lads, none over IS years
of age, are scheduled to earn from
$30,000 to $35,000 each during this
season on the eastern race tracks,
says a Memphis dispatch. These boys
with trust official Incomes are Jockeys
Herman Radtke, Lee Sewell and David
Nlcol. They range In weight from 95
to 105 pounds. What the steering
gear is lu a snip ine jocKey is 10 a
race horse. A single miscalculation,
a too sudden pull on a rein or a lack
of Judgment In regard to pace, may
make defeat certain, and backers of
the horso will lose thousands of dol
lars. If a Jockey Is not competent
enough to elude nil of the "pockets"
In which rivals try to ensnare him all
the speed of tho horse goes for naught.
Oftentimes $200,000 depends upon
the fleetness of foot of a thorough
bred. In order that tin best horse
may not lose where he is able to win,
wealthy turfmen pay from $10,000 to
$20,000 to little Inds who have clem
onstrnted that they can think nulckly,
grasp nn opportunity and land the
horse the winner. The fleetest horse
Is often benten. A bad start, a "pock
et," a Jockey's lack of Judgment or
Interference, one or all of these things
may prevent the best horse from win
ning. Radtke, Sewell and Nlcol fill all the
requirements of a flrst-clasB Jockey.
For a year they hove displayed skill,
courage, alertness and strength to
such a remarkable degree, that they
