certain advances. This move was ex-
ceedingly unpopular A nue. and cry
was raised against it throughout the
country. Mr.. Taft, yielding to pres.
sure OF the shippers. and perhaps to
gain popularity, took the position tina,
such concerted action by the railroads
was combination In violation of the
Sherman law, and ordered an applica-
ton for an Injunction. BY this blow
he recouped his popularity and the
prestige OF his administration So pop
ular was the move with the great mass
of the people that the tide Of public
sentiment veered completely around to
his support
His measures, which had been hang
ing fire. went through Congress. and
from that day his popularity has been
growing, until now he has c, fair show
for the nomination in 1912. The In
terstate Commission is appointed by
the President. and is practically his
agent and instrument. II this COM
mission now grants the demands of
the railroads 1t will be equivalent to
a declaration that the Injunction
should not have been invoked to pre-
vent them from doing what they wera
entitled to do: that the shippers We're
wrong. and Mr.. Taft erred in yielding
to their pressure, The probability is
that some concessions will be made,
but nothing of sufficient Importance
to change the present deplorable sit
nation, say deplorable situation be-
cause If this situation is not altered
there will be trouble, and probably
serious trouble. Gross earnings are no
longer showing increases, which could
make up for increased expenses. In
July the railroads showed Toss or
nearly Z per cent. in net, in spite of
their increase in gross. Increases In
gross are diminishing and will soon
disappear Before the ond OF the year
gross and net will both be decreasing.
Political outlook.
So much for the business situation.
Now take the political outlook. All
signs Indicate a sweeping victory Tor
the Insurgents anu Democrats at the
fall election The Payne Aldrich bin
is the principal issue and the Chief
subject Of denunciation. The Demo
Gratis will control the House. and the
Democrats and Insurgents together the

new tariff bill If there is, as 1 ex-
pect, an unmistaKable pronouncemen,
OF the nation against the present tariff,
may not the administration itself cen.

tial election on such an unpopular
Issue? The l.ouse Will probably PASS

We are both old enough to remember
the panic which followed. and the con-
sequent depression. from which there
was no substantial recovery until Nc
kinley was inaLsurated In 1907. Mr..
Taft came into office March 4. 1909. on
a platform promising revision OF tha
tariff by the Republicans. He called
an extra session of Congress in the
drop in steel and the Generalization
If the market which ensued, although
that revision was to be made BY the
friends, not by the enemies of protec-
surgents shall succeed IN passing a
tariff bill or not, the dread of 1t will
hang over the country, and there can
be no revival of business until that
apprehension is removed, or until the
new tariff bill ia passed and we know
what is the worst we have to expect.
Bull Market Impossible.
That we should have anything like
bull market Under such. circumstances
as I have detailed Is. to me. simply
unthinkable. In my judgment, it is
much more probable that the great
manipulators and holders of stock will
not only continue to liquidate, but that
state of things will be brought about
similar to that of 1903. when securities
sold for. not much, more than half the
value they brought on the boom.

mention the facts in this regard since
1875 In the year 1878 we commenced
TO recover from the long depression
consequent upon the special resump-
ton act In 1881 there was a great
boom Garfield was shot and we had a
great drought. There was heavy fall
in the stock market. but the country
was sound and recovery took place.
In the spring of 1884 we had the Grant

car through a slough near Louisville
that had held up farm traffic, in any

for. two days and had travelled the last
