Wool warehouse scheme to centralize market gains steam
J B Congriff of the National Wool Warehouse and Storage company plans a Chicago wool market. A five story building rises to handle wool with 3,000 workers, stock offerings include 400,000 dollars capital, and western growers receive one cent per pound, while Chicago interests fund the rest. The move aims to open prices, ship wool to Chicago, and advance growers’ payments, with strong backing from banks and the Chicago Association of Commerce.

Why We Support Gowen in Caldwell Mayoral Race
The Caldwell Tribune endorses Gowen for mayor amid city election rumors. It rejects false claims of a 99 year exclusive franchise for Caldwell Electric Light Co and notes Nichols would not accept police chief if offered. It praises Gowen’s willingness to fund and support local enterprises and contrasts him with Smith. It also cites Gowen’s prior giving to the band and College of Idaho fund.
