will endure In the coming four years repetition
of the experience which they suffered from 1898
to 1881 or enjoy a continuation OF the conditions
which have blessed them under the Administration
forget: Mr. Bryan is radical. He stands not
merely for extreme tariff revision. but also for a
financial revolution. His election would surely
precpitate a panic, bring business chaos and
paralyze manufactures 1t would be followed by
action concerning the currency which would bring
the country a silver basis Then the wage earn
ers who are depositors in savings banks would find
themselves not simply deprived of opportunity for
adding to their accounts. but made subject to the
payment Of their deposits in dollars &c a dimin-
ished purchasing power. In a word vote for
Bryan is vote TO decrease future earnings and
to reduce the value OF savings already made.

Two such object lessons seemed to be enough and
In 1886 the district overwhelmingly elected Re
publican Congressman and gave big majority for
Republican President. 1t took year to reverse
the tobogganing of industries to the lowest
depths, but the Dingey tariff the Mckinley Ad-
minstration and the sound money legislation of the
nepublican party arrested the decline. set the
wheels of industry hummng, gave the wage earn

relegated free soup the limbo of bygone things.

ALL INDUSTRIES AWAITING RESULT
FREDERICK AVER ON THE BUSINESS CON
DITIONS IN NEW-ENGLAND

Frederick Aver, for forty five years a prominent
business man Of Boston. president of the Ameri-
Woolen Company, and identified with the cot
ton manufacturing industry and other leading in
terests OF New-England, when asked what had
been the business condition of New England in
the last four years under the Republican Admins
tration, answered:
Very prosperous in all of the various lines of
trade until December last, when trade conditions
were affected and contracted by the anticipation
of a possible change in the Administration at the
ensuing election"
What. in your opinion, would be the result of
the of the Republican ticket and the con-
tinuaton OF the Administration for another four
years?" asked
"A revival of prosperity; a restoration of conf
dence in the stability Of the currency larger ex-
tension of manufacturing industries and of gen.
eral business interests; larger markets for all prod
ucts and steady employment furnished to all
classes of labor We knew that a continuation of
the present Administration would mean a contnu-
ance OF business prosperity. and l do not believe
the country wishes to try any more experiment of
Democratic rule after the experience of the two
terms of Grover Cleveland. which resulted In ex-
business interests.
1T is also highly important that President Nc
Kinley should be supported by a majority in Con-
gress Of his own party. During the next few years
many grave and important questions of foreign
tile House of Representatives would emba rrass and
and development Besides. business interests would
ne afflicted in measure owing to lack OF con-
ndence, and general commercial stability would be
somewhat affected and impaired"
Speaking of the iron mining industry in which
he is interested. Mr. Aver continued:
Il have large interests, with others in the Goge-
bic and Menominee ranges, in Michigan. and the
development OF their vast interests under 4 con-
tinuaton of Republican rule would be greater than
the country has ever known, because the mines
furnaces and mills We're never so well prepared
for large business Extensive plans have been
matured for the use of iron and steel construction
throughout the country. which will be Immediately
put in operation upon the success of the Repub-
Hcan ticket in November
Until this political question Is settled and Bryan
and Organism. with all that that implies has been
buried. capital will be timid and reserved The
election OF Bryan would be National calamity
carrying with it further contraction of all classes
OF industry, general reduction OF wages and the
general depression which existed during the two
terms of Democratic Admnistrat ton"
What do think of the present outlook"
The election of Mckinley seems assured
and our efforts should be devoted until Elec-
ton Day not only to secure the success of
the National ticket, but also to have for the sup
port of the President a Congress composed of a
majority of his party. With this secured l
believe this country will enter upon reign OF
prosperity unequaled in history

the DAYS of Mckinley prosperity, the most mar

Truthfully these figures picture forth the CON-
citions well known TO have prevailed during the
period which they cover they yet fail to represen+
the whole truth. for 1T is well understood that in

orators in mine and forge and factory are making
