COLLAPSE OF PROSPERITY.


The hollowness and fick1eness OF
our present so-called prosperity are be-
coming apparent. Its delicacy and
unsoundness are now being admitted
by the many textile manufacturersi in
Philadelphia. Nearly 100000 of their
employees are on strike for shorter
hours and some of them also for high
er wages. The textile workers think it
only js:r that they should get a small
share of the great prosperity which
they have been hearing and reading
about for SO many years. They are
now being told that it is too late and
that not only are the manufacturers
not making the profits they made a
few years ago, but that the outlook for
the future is bad. The following is
from an editorial on the Philadelphia
strike in the Wool and Cotton Report
