The Great Commercial Strife. West
vs. East.

From the Hide aaI Leather Interest,"
In our various trade articles we
have had occasion frequently 10 al
iude 10 the commercial rivalry be-
tween the great West and the great
East, III the lines of manufacturing
and merchandising at wholesale.
This competition has been increasing
for ye4rs. till at last the East has be-
gun To realize the results, in the re-
tarded growth other generalbusiness
While ut the same time, she saw
her old customer the great West, not
only increase in productive resour-
ces, and to the dismay of the great
East, demonstrate the ability to
supply very large portion of her
wants, and also gives promise, of a
condition OF things at no far distant
day, which will enable her To bid
farewell to the Atlantic States, as a
source of supply, and set up for her.
self, as manufacturer and whole
saler, for her own Empire west or
the Alleghanies.
We have watched the increase of
western manufac turing and western
wholesaleing, with some degree of
anxiety, for the past five years. The
belief has at last been forced upon
US, that We are not supplying half
the proportion of consumers there
to-day, that We were in 1850, and. ii
we continue to thus lose to an in
creasing extent per year our hold up
on Chicago, Toledo, Cleveland, De
troit, Milwaukee, and other large
ar Il rapidly growing cities, we shall
show most pitiable list of accounts
on our business ledgers at the end
of the next decade. To hold on where
we are, If we cannot get back what
we have lost, should he our great
aim and effort. This is only to be
done by instituting a sharp and ear
nest competition such a competition
as has notyet been organized "a COM
petition which will enablethe whole
sale buyers to land his purchases at
anywestern city, at less cost than he
can possibly get them from thewhole-
salers of his own locality. Our
Eastern manufacturers must throw
down the gauntlet to their sturdy
opponents of the West, and wage a
conflict dire and desperate, or gradu-
ally and steadily, and mere surely,
viii Western customers be lost to us,
and our transactions narrow down to
the basis of a third rate producing
and merchandising section.
