It was em phatically requested I should favor no side, but get at the facts, "let the chips fall where they may.' Philadelphia manufactures almost' ,, it ,. ..i. ivtii ,i, na three times as much textile goods as its closest competitor, Lawrence, Mass.; more than three times as much as New York city, Paterson, X. J., Tall River I or New Bedford. Mass., and nearly five times as much as Lowell, Mass. Tho textile mills of Philadelphia employ 60,000 people. The workers of this industry form a population exceeding that of Dayton, O.; al most double the population of Tren ton, more than double that of Troy, X. Y.'nnd almost three times the population of Harrisburg. It is therefore obvious that n paralysis in this industry for any great length of time must necessarily affect every branch of social, industrial and finan- ml life of Philadelphia. At present 80 per cent of the work- i-5 in the textile industry of Phila- deluhhi arc out of work. Quite true. iO per cent of those idle nrc on i . -trlke; but, whether by force or vol intarily, the fact remnins that 80 per cent of the bread-winners of Pliila iclphia's largest industry are idle. Many Causes of Idleness There are a great many reasons for this idleness, the main ones being lack of orders, chaotic condition 'of j fho retail trade throughout tho ' Pnitcd States, unfavorable, compcti-1 five conditions in tho South and re fusal of .thousands of people to buy textile croods so lontr as they believe I that possibly the nrice will iro lower.
