alton, and it's doings in.this state"
You seem to have assumed for
granted, thati this company is vio1at-
ing the statutes Wisconsin, so far
as its Insurance businesssEis con-
cerned, andssrequire..uthe writer to
prove thissotherwise.
AS long as you have this assump-
ton, and put your own, and at the
same time a misconstruction on my
statements Il have. nothing.smore to
say and will stand ready to defend
the position of this corporation with
the proper authorities when the time
comes.
Permit me to say, that if you would
show the same zeal in igetting after
those who are writingssE Wild Cat
Business in this state, fromsChicago
and elsewhere, as you seemsto feel, in
this apparent antagonismEtoward this
corporation, you would become vastly
more valuable to thespeop1e of the
state of Wisconsin, andi at the same
time, claim the cooperation of this
company to that end, rather than the
opposite. Yours very truly,
The Wisconsin Insurance Agency Co.
By WAITER M. CowELL,
President.
Cowell holds that Host and his as
sistants are making anfeffort to make
capital of political nature out of
! this fight against the"so-ca11ed sswi1d
cat companies.
This is the first positive action that
has been taken by Host in regard to
these unlicenseds companies in the
state, and it is expected that the fight
will be a great one. Jusuwhat back
ing Cowel1 has is not known, but he
claims to have plenty of backing to
take the matter to theg highest courts
in the state.

STRIKE A GREAT MISTAKE.

The Rev. e. W. Smith. rector Of the Episcopal
Church OF the Ascension. is Of the representa-
tive clersymen who has made study of the strike
situation. Not only In connection with his church
work. but as vice-president of the Associated
Charities In Fall River has Mr.. Smith had an op-
portunity TO acquatnt himself with the situation
In common with all others who have studied the
problem before Fall River. he unable TO see any
way of arriving at a satisfactory settlement. He
IS willing to admit that Fall River Is facing the
crisis of her life. but he Is ready 70 believe
with others that the breHkng up OF her great In
dUStry would mean its destruction for all
time. With the natural advantages which Fall
River possesses Mr.. Smith believes that even il
out OF business under their present mana cement
they must in the natural order of things into
the hands of outside capitalists and under new
management. with new corps of operatives. restore
Fail River to her rightful position at the head Of
the cotton industry Of the world.
II believe IL was a very foolish thing for the
operatives to strike at this time said Mr.. smith
Their leaders are aware of the depression in the
market. To strike under such conditions was alb
surd. either a policy a business measure
II there had been sensible the heads of the
unions there would have been strike. I believe
in unions I believe they are the sal alton Of the

fact that this strike has been running eighteen
weeks with show OF violence may he taken
evidence that the standard OF union membership IS
being bettered.

NO SETTLEMENT IN SIGHT.

that he could see no possible chance OF settle

for no relief in legislation and shared the same
detection over the outlook as the merchants.
Asked what he thought the outcome would be- the
Mayor simply shrugged his shoulders in q most
expressive manner. In explanation Of the citys
position with regard to a settlement of the strike
the Mayor said: Eve have here in Massachusetts,

matter naturally comes For the city 20 take any

River offer any explanation OF the reason it is pos
sible for the company continue manufacturing
cloth and paying the old scale of wages in the
face of the fact that the heads of forty other big
corporations have declared such course to be
impossible because of the state of the cotton mar
ket.
The merchants and the citizens Of Fall River
generally attribute the action Of the Iron Works
corporation to the fact that It and operates
its own print works. No other Fall River cor
poration does the printing of the cloth il
features. Another explain ton offered is that the
mills of the Iron Works corporation located
on the waterfront and this does away with the big
expense OF cartng goods for shipment from a
distance, which most OF the other corporations are
obliged to bear However that may be, the Iron
Works corporation continues to manufacture cloth
at the rate OF 175.0o0,00O yards year, and the
forty concerns represented in the Cotton Manu-
facturcrs Association continue to declare II can
not be done This concern. employing about five
thousand hands. dlsburses something over $50 900
