such confidence as will permit him to
build safely for the future, he fills his
warehouse with goods to meet future
demands. During the dull seasons he
works his force at full time and fills
his warehouses. When the busy sea.
son comes on and he is unable to
manufacture goods fast enough to
meet the demand, he draws on the
warehouses to meet current orders.
When the busy season is over the
warehouses are filled again and his
force of labor is constantly employed.
But II confidence Ia withdrawn he
cuts down his force in order to just
permit filing current orders. He has
not the confidence in the future that
will permit him to fill his warehouses.
His force Is consequently cut down
and part Of his labor Is unemployed. I
1t is the same With the merchant.
He carries just enough stock to I'LL
current orders. He does not buy stock
for the coming season, because he has
no assurance that he will be able to
dispose Of it except at q great loss.
The result is that he only orders for
present needs, and thus the factory
only manufactures goods as they are
ordered.
The reduction of forces by the manu-
facturer and merchant throws labor
out Of employment These unemployed
cannot buy anything but the bare
necessities. Consequently the volume
of trade is cut down and period OF
depression comes on that remains UNI
til conditions are changed so as to
bring restoration Of confidence.
This is not any ones personal opin-
ion. It is history. It has happened be-
fore, and it easily can happen again.
The election Of democratic legis-
lature in this state and a democratic
national congress would unsettle pub
lie confidence. It would mean that for
the next two years, or until the presi-
Dental election of 1912, the country
would suffer from lack of confidence
that would affect employer and en-
plOye alike.
