absolutely that a great ship passed
the crippled Titanic at time when
moments meant lives and thta the
rockets sent up by the great ship
went absolutely unheeded, though the
other vessel was scant score Of
miles away-or less.

form Of 1908 as well as the Democratic
platform of 1908 declared for reyi-
sion of the tariff 1t seems to me that
the only question before the American
people now is, Who will give them
the downward revision for which they
made a new demand in 1910 when a
Democratic congress was overwhelm-
ingly elected? 1t is clear that the
only man in the race who will stand
for an intelligent revision downward
is Woodrow Wilson and the only party
which will give it is the Democratic
party.
Now, if Mr.. Wanamaker is correct
in his assertion that prosperity de-
pends wholly upon Republican rule
and the maintenance of a high tariff
policy, how does he explain the in
controvertible fact that with every
body demanding tariff revision down
ward the whole business of the coun-
try today is, in anticipation of this
very revision and the certainty of
Democratic success, in better condi-
ton, more stimulated and more ag
gressive than it has been in many
years? Does he not know that our
shrewd merchants, business men and
bankers almost infallibly sense i'm
provement in business conditions, or
as they say in the vernacular, "dis-
count it?" Democratic success is on
all sides conceded
Is Not to Destroy.
Finally, it bears strongly ON Mr.
Wanamaker's statement to note that
the Democratic campaign is largely in
the hands of business men. can
not claim the distinction of being a
merchant, yet l hope / can qualify as
business man. Certainly 1 should
hesitate to advocate the adoption of
any policy or to ask my friends to
follow the leadership of any man or
party likely in any way to bring harm
to the people of this country. 1t would
be easy to add the names of distin-
guished manufacturers all over the
land who are in active cooperation
with the Democratic national commit
tee in this campaign. These men, hav-
ing great business interests at stake,
are not likely to be deceived into pro-
noting their own destruction. They
feel, ais do many others of our leading
manufacturers, that the Democratic
party in promising gradual revision
Of the tariff is helping and not hinder
ing our industries. Governor Wilson
has frankly said:
'1 am not interested in disturbing
the great course of business in this
country, but l am interested in en-
riching it." w. G. M'ADOO.
