Primary debates split on money and reform

Wool Market Slows as Buyers Hold for Shorn Wool
Local wool buyers report a slow market with no intent to buy until wool is shorn and ready for inspection. The prevailing price centers around 40 cents with Birkeland singled out as the only buyer at that level. Much wool has been shorn and is being held for transport to the city, awaiting better conditions. Joe Joseph suffered a wrist injury after a fall, with Dr LeCair assisting the injured member.
