TEXTILE EDUCATION.

Georgia is to be congratulated that her
citizens seem to be thoroughly alive 10
the necessity for technical Industrial. or
textile, education in the States OF the
South. Georgia is pioneer in the sou,b
IN establishing schools OF Technology and
sne appears determined to maintain them
The last legislature voted $40 900 to the
Georgia school of technology for the pur-
pose OF adding a textile department TO that
institution. but there was the provision in
the appropriation that the States money
should not be available until another $40. /.
600 had been raised by popular subscrip-
ton.
The Atlanta Constitution, In reoent
issue, told the public that President Hall
had stated that the full sum of this "a
quired subscription had been ralsel and
that with the $4,000 available the textile
department would be al once added. Com
menting on this Information tho consti,u-
tion remarked:
There can be no doubt OF the fact that one
OF TIC most urgent needs of the South al this
critcai period OF Its Industrial developinent
Is the need OF moro thorough facilities Tor

have been conferred upon 1t for aiding In the
material upbuilding Of the South
Every Southern State should follow Geor-
gias example In the premises. The leg s.
latures and the moneyed mtn ought to
give freely of the public and private mtans
to equip these schools for the technical
training OF our Southern youth 10 those
departments Of manufacture that must
largely engage the attention OF the South
hereafter Texas is certainly rich enough
and vitality enough interested to maintain
such institutions and yet little thought ap-
parontly is given tho subject in this State.
The value OF such schools Is two-fold--
they not only equip the young men. or
young women for that matter, with the
ability and technical knowledge required
to take hold OF existing establshms nts.
but in turning out such graduates they
make of the latter the enthusiastic pro-
motors OF new plants and thus stimula e
the growth OF industries. II Is difficult TO
get our people to realize the Importance OF
the practical, technical education OF South
ern youth, but 1t is gratifying to note at
least the beginnings Of the good work.

CAUCUS ACTION.

The caucus OF the democratic members
OF the house of representatives, called to
determine the extent 10 which caucus ac-
tion Is binding upon those who participate
in the meetings at any time, adjourned
again, Monday afternoon last, until De-
cember next. There was not present quo
rum only about fifty members being in at
tendance.
The question at issue Is the broad one
whether a member OF the party should be
absolutely bound at all times TO support the
conclusions OF the caucus? There never
has been in the history OF any party
unanimous acquescence In the dictates OF
caucus action Naturally therefore, there
Is wide difference OF opinion as to whether
n rule should be adopted by mere caucus
that viii bind all the members OF a party
under all circumstances and Ia all cases
The directing authority. TO that absolute
extent rests, apparently rather with the
party conventions than the party caucus
The caucus is valuable In ascertainng the
majority sentiment OF the members OF a
party in house or senate and in that way
exercising moral influence upon all the
members of that party, but to go further
and prescribe iron bound rules which pre-
vent any freedom Of individual action on
public questions, would naturally raise the
party caucus.
This is the issue, therefore, now before
the house democrats in Washington. At
the meeting Monday an overwhelming RIA
lorlty favored the rigid rule, but II was
thought best to postpone definite action
until December
The question liz one purely OF party de-
tail and management about which there
are always differences OF opinion I'm all
part'es' II Is not a disagreement over
party principles. nor was there any speclol
measure In view upon which 1t was de-
s'ren 10 secure nnanim,y OF action. It
II nor In any sense a party quarrel nor
even serious divergence of views. How the
caucus may decide next December cnn not
