CURRENT TOPICS.

On Sunday last in Chicago, William VI.
Salter, before the Society for Ethical Cui-
ture, d.sscoursed upon Business is Bus
ness: a Study in Practical Ethics" He
said in part:
The maxim Business Is Business may
have bad meaning and it may nave a
good meaning. When used as an excuse
for any sort of methods that seem neces-
sary to business success, such as mislead-
ing advertisements or lowering the wages
of labor 10 meet competition, it is permit
cious. Business is only a part of life
and truth is the law of the whole, and
business has no exemption. No excuse is
good for reducing wages below a living
level. Eeather conscience or the law ought
to prevent it,
There is a law to prevent such reduc-
ton OF wages. 1t is the natural law OF
trade Labor is commodity and mas
its market price. It is beyond the power
OF man to force it up or forcs it down
for any considerable length OF time.
There is now some discussion as to
whether the Legislature at its extra ses-
Son will consider any business other than
that of arranging and providing for the
convention. It may be wise. It may be
absolutely necessary to Iegislate on other
matters, but the legislators should remem-
Der that they are called together to ar
range for the Constitutional Convention.
That will be what they are in Richmond
for and this business should be first at
tended to and gotten out of the way.
After that they can spend the balance of
their forty-five days discussing and leg
islating upon any other question they may
choose to wrestle wtll.-NeWport News
Herald
That is good sense and we hope the
members will govern themselves accord
ingly. No outside matters should be per-
mitted to interfere with the specific ob
ject for which the session is callsu.
So far as free silver is concerned it was
dropped by the very men who forced it to
the front four years ago. Not one orator
on the Democratic side made a free silver
speech during the campaign, so far as we
know. The free silver issue was placed
in the Democratic platform and then aban-
1t should have been abandoned before the
platform was drafted; or it should have
been vigorously advocated after it had
been placed in the platform The milk
and-water policy pursued disguised the
silver West and we carried only five West
ern States. Tho same policy Disguised
the East because the Eastern people were
afraid that ell the talk about Imperialism
was INDUCED in order to veil the free
silver purpose of the party. The East
considered the party tainted with silver
fem jn fhn,1oflt n no nj,
had turned its back upon silver. Being
neither fish nor fowl we succeeded in thor
oughly disgusting both selectio1s.-Mem-
phis Comnercial-Appeai.
Now let Democrats ask themselves these
questions: Who forced the free silver
plank into the platform? And why was
that plank feared by the interests oe the
country? The answer to both questions
in the same.
