Permit me to call your attention 10 a
letter in the' Statesman of this date, writ
ten from Washington City by Hon. T.
McConnqll, a delegate by tbe wool grow
ing interest of I'aliforoi 1 to appear before
the U. S. senate committee on finance in
oppositiou to' the pending Wilson bill be
coming law. ' Mr. McLonnell writes re
monstrants have been denied a bearing
before the committee, so, under the aus
pices of the National Wool Grower asso
ciation, will act by memorial, wuich will
be published in a lew days, and suggests
that citizens of Oregon wite to their del
egation in coagress for copies of tbese
documents.
I would add to tbat tbe suggestion, that
wool growers apply also for copies of ibe
"Report of the Bureau ot Aunnal Indus
try on the Sheep and Wool of the United
Stales for 1892," 60,000 copies of which
are printed lor distribution by members
ot congress. I know Senator Dolphjs
esirous tp.plape the copies' at bis dispo
sal amongst wool' growers, aud I presume
Messers Mitchell, Hermann and Ellis are
no less so. A line on a postal card .with
address of writer is all tbat is necessary.
There is. in my judgment, Mr. Editor,
no probability of stopping' the Wilson
bill, and the cala iity that comes with it
to American industries have, I greatly
fi;ar, got to bo tasied to tbe very dregs by
U0MM01J O0UN0IL.

A recent communication to the Orrgd

aline of misrepresentation by free-trade
Democrats in support of their cause, and
f tbink it should be met now witb tbe
truth of histoiy. What I allude to is tbe
monstrous assumptions made by Mr.
Slater that there were 42,000,000 sheep jn
the United States when tbe tariff, law of
1801 passed, and that there were 12,000,000
sheep slaughtered for their pelts and tal
low by American farmers within three-
years thereafter. The fact is there was
depression and appreheusion occasioned
by the extraordinary amount of wool and
woolens left on tbe market : by tiie. close
of the civil war, aud tbe Morrill tariff of
ltjGl being deemed inadequate protection,
tbe law of 18(il was pa.-scd tn time, us
