Tariff Reform of Cleveland
Administration Caused De-
preston For Five Years.
HOME MARKET FOR FARMER
BEST FOR HIM TO SELL IN
Loss in Farm Annuals Alone During
the Cleveland Administration Was
Eight Hundred Million Dollars-Not
. Jest but an Actual Experience.

Washington, Oct. 2s.-President
Taft today made public statement
in which he declared that the four
years of depression which followed
the second election of President Cleve-
land was due to the promise Of tariff
reform and the democratic changes
in the tariff that followed.
The president said the issue before
the voters is clear. ION the one hand,
prosperity and real progress: on the
other a leap in the dark"
1.-The American people," he contin-
ued. have more than once surprised
those who thought the people were
being successfully fooled and 1 be.
lieve that a similar surprise awaits
our opponents on the coming 5th of
November"
President Taft said in part:
''The effect of the tariff reform of
1S94-95 was actually felt from 1902
to 1907. This is apparent in the stat
istics Of wages paid in the manufac-
turing industries in the decade of
1s9o-19oo as compared with preced-
ing and subsequent periods. In
1890 the wages paid had increased
nearly $1,000, 100000 over 1880
from $947.973.793 to $1.s91.22s.-
s21. Whereas in 1900. when the
country was recovering from the
blight of the four years Of demo-
cracy, they showed an increase of only
So, 00s. 1851, ,000-that is. about $1l7,-
100000 over 1880. In the subsequent
decade Of protection, the manufacture
ing industries increased $3.427,O ,O3S,-
900.
'The experience of the farmers is
equally impressive. Their losses on
the value of farm animals alone dur
ing the Cleveland tariff reform
regime amount to about $s00,000.-
900.
''1n this connection it may be noted
that our democratic friends prefer to
discover the cause Of amusement In
the alleged claim by the republicans
OF credit for this years abundant
crops. The credit that the republi.
cans claim with the experience OF
fifty years to sustain them, is that the
republican policy of protection for
American industries maintains the
best market in the world-the home
market-for the farmer to sell his
his crop in, while the foreign markets
have been invaded and gained for
both the farmer and manufacturer to
Ia degree never even distantly ap-
preached under a democratic admin
istration."
