- -. N—-——— THE CENTRE REPORTER. _ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 81, on STABILITY WHAT WE NEED. Full Measure of Prosperity Cannot Be Realized Until Country Is Satisfied With Genuine Tariff Reform. | Edward A. Filene is president of Ed- waurth A, Filene & Son, Boston, Mass, one of the largest retail dry goods stores of the country. He is a former president of the Boston chamber of commerce, memes ber of the National Councell of Commerce, National Civic federation, National News- paper league, Cleveland chamber of coms merce and 8 member of a score of clubs and other organizations; is the author of many articles on business, clvie, labor and industrial relations. | To the Merchants and Business Men of the United States: John Wanamaker's appeal to you in the New York Herald of Oct. 4, calling for a continent wide rally to the sup- port of Mr. Tuft on the part of the merchants and men of the country, has no doubt received your serious attention It hns seemed to me that those of us in business who believe Mr. Wanamaker's position is mis 'n should make known our po- sitions and the reasons for our firm belief that the business of the country will be best served by the election of Governor Wilson to the présidency. There 18 every reason to believe that we are on the eve of abundant pros- perity, and in my opinion one thing likely to prevent the setting in of such dod would be the re-election of ut Taft acd the one thing that prosperity most certain would be the election of Governor Wil- This opinion based upon my belief that for the business world noth- Ing else so important as stability.

He does not now offer nite tariff program. These thing me to believe that his now, like the re-election of Taft, would mean four years more of tariff agitation. With Wilson elected one may reason. ably expect a satisfactory sointion of the tariff question His expressions on this matter show a full conception of the country wide demand for tar- if reform, a knowledge of the ways in which tariff laws are made and a determination to secure as promptly us possible the much needed legislation. At the same time Gover nor Wilson has shown that he recog nizes as a fact the intimate relation which tariff has been made to have to the structure of business in this coun- try and that he wonld keep this fact hh mind fo handling tariff legislation. Governor Wilson's election would mean and would be taken by the coun. try at large to mean that we would have very early In his administration gf revision of the tariff which would give the country the relief it is de manding and which at the same time would be made carefully and with view to preventing business disturb faince. Until this is done, or nt least gntil the country. feels sure that it i= to be done. there cannot be that stability which Is #0 necessary to the fullest development of an era of prosperity. Truth About Prosperity, Certainly the facts do not warrant Mr. Wanamaker's conclusion that a Republican administration insures pros. perity and that the periods of trade de pression which the country has seen from time to time have been due to Democratic tariff revision. Mr. Wana. maker's appeal is based largely on the theory that Democratic tariff revision was responsible for the hard times of Asoo. In the face of the facts no au- thority, however eminent, ean reason. ably ask that we accept the theory, Now, according to facts, the panle which was commonly known as that of 1803 might very properly have been known as that of 1800 or 1801, because it was under the McKinley tariff bill, which became a law on Oct 6, 1800, that the first signs of this disturbance appeared. On Nov, 17, 1800, Barker Bros, bankers, of Philadelphia, suspended ' with Habilities of $5,000,000, and the clearing houses of both New York and *s lead election thorough Boston voted their certificates to banks io need of assistance. There ware 5 - otuer big suspensions und failures In this year and the nest In 1502, while the country sas stil ander the Republican administration and a Republican aril nw, strike aft er strike broke out as a result of the workingmen's attempt to resist reduc tions in und these strikes cul minated tn the great Homestead strike and riot. 1p other words, the panic of 1803 was well under way when Cleve land came Into otlice Under the tarily nw siere were more than 15,000 in the United Stites, amounting to S$40.000.000 On cratic revisioyg 1804 the 13.000, nud the to $173.000.000, 1805 the number Iy 1,000 less remained about half fatlures than this In (13.441) Mr. Wanamaker the Republican 1007.
