This is the way in which it makes this
sannounce cement GAS to the probable
length OF the period of depression it is
difficult to speak with exactitude. It is
however, generally felt that change
for the better will not be seen during the
present year. Business in the United
States will naturally be largely affected
by the November elections. ALI agree
that much is at stake in this election and
some of our leading makers declare that
if President Harrison, the Republican
candidate, should be reelected, an even,
seYercr blow than that hitherto felt BY
the trade, will be dealt to the Welsh
staple. Should General Harrison be re-
turned to power, it is believed in South
Wales that the example of Messrs. M ore
wood & CO., Mr.. ". H. Edwards of the
- s
Duffryn Works and others in erecting
works in the States will be followed by
other Welsh firms. Hope is, however,
yet entertained that the Democrats will
succeed in returning Nj Cleveland, the
champion of Tariff reform.
There is no m1staking the meaning of
this Language. The hope Of the Welsh
tin-plate manufacturers is centered in
Grover Cleveland because they feel that
il he should be elected next November
he would apply all the influence of the
Presidents office to remove the present
duty. on tin-plate. As rivals of Amcri-
can nStin-plate manufacturers, they conf
IDENTIFY count on the candidate of the
Free Traders taking sides with them in
their efforts 20 capture the American
market.
Another Welsh paper, the Cambrian
Daily Leader, voices in it's issue of Sep
tember 9th the same sentiments expressed
by the South Wales News. It, too.
wants Grover Cleveland elected because
it believes his election will help to kill
the tin plate industry. After describing
the stagnation Of business throughout
Wales the Cambrian Daily Leader pro-
.ceeds to add: =:
ssUnder the general stagnating effect
the Mckinley Act has produced there is
very little outlet in other portions of
Wales for the surplus labor of the par
ticular kind to which Landore men have
been reared. Even were these outlets
existing, there would be the deleterious
effect Of fdepopulating Landore to that
extent. It is only to be expected that
tradesmen of every branch in the locality
suffer materially. All have agreed that
the stoppages have affected them in very
tangible manner, and they fervently hope
for the better time that seems a long
way off at present. The men are between
two countries, so to speak. It is not
expected that the period of acute de-
preston through which the Welsh tim
plate trade is passing will see any change
for the Oetter during the present year
On the other hand, the market for labor
is not yet fairly opened in the States,
for not only is business affected largely
by the November elections, but the future
of Welsh tin-plate hangs in the balance.
It is hoped that the champion of Tariff
Reform, Mr.. Cleveland, will be returned
by the Democrats, but if President Har-
rison is reelected there will be a genuine
exodus Of Welsh firms to America,
Both of these Welsh papers agree IN
believing that Grover Cleveland is the
main reliance of the Welsh tin plate man
ufacturers IN the present crisis. They
contemplate the possibility Of President
Harrison's reelection as positive Gala
nifty, because the President stands on a
political platform that pledges him to
protect our tin-plate and every other
American industry. Grover Cleveland
stands ou no such platform. Hence the
desire for his election that is manifested
in England and other European coun-
tries that are seeking to capture the Anne
lican market.
