Col. Carrol D. Wright, in the
cember Forum feaye that a great
many valuable lessons will be learn-
ed from the Chicago strike. While
studying its phases, its origin, ita
course, and its close, two very far-
reaching ethical-economic questions
Iiave been constantly in my mind.
These are:
1. Shall a man conduct bia own
business in his own way 1
2. Shall the savings of labor be
considered a reserve from which
labor must draw, in order to enable
it to subsist during periods of de»
pression or of adversity, while the
reserve of capital is kept practically
intact under like circumstances, or,
if drawn upon at all, in less measure
than labor drs*s on its savings?
Society haa long sines answered
these questions in some important
particulars. It says to the property
owner, the manufacturer: "You
must not so conduct your business
as to injure the property of your

No property owner

whether these rights and
come under the head of right to
freedom from injury to property, or
the privilege of living without dam-
age to health." Bvt the question
which is much more far-reaching,
and which will inevitably be an-
swered by society, relates to condi-
tions of men rather than to their
material surroundings; and this
question is: "Shall a man or a cor-
poration who does not, or is not able
to, conduct his or its affairs so as to
avoid public disturbance, obstruc-
tion of trade, loss of wages, or the
lowering of the standard of living,
be free from the interference of
society?'
TEXAS CAN SUPPLY THE COTTON.
Representative Sayres, of Texas,
chairman of the House Committee
on Appropriations, says Hie Phila-
delphia Ledger, "attributes the de-
feat of the Democrats in Texas to
bard times and reduction in the
price of cotton, which has been sell-
ing below 5c. per pound. The
Populists made great gains, and
Mr. Sayeil sa|s le Would hare been
defeated had not the Republicans
of his district came to his support.
All kinds of falee and mischievous
stories were circulated against Mr.
Sayers in his district, but such
stories, he says, were not necessary.
'When it costs 6c. a pound to rfuse
cotton,' raid he, 'and the producer
can get only 4^c. or 5c. for it, he is
very apt to feel dissatisfied. As a
consequence the "renters"' were
against me. I cannot ass that mat-
to. .re t. improve for
come. The cotton crop this year
will reach 9,000,000. Texas alone
