TAFT ATTACKS
TARIFF REFORM
Declares Democratic Platform
Means a Leap in the Dark"
for Voters.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2S.-President
in which he declared that the -four
years of depression which followed
the second election of President
Cleveland" were due to the promise
of tariff reform and the Democratic
changes in the tariff that followed.
The President said that the issue be-
fore the voters is clear, "On the one
hand prosperity and real progress;
on the other, a leap in the dark"
1.-THE American people," he con-
tinued, have more than once sur
prised those who thought the people
were being successfully fooled, and
I believe hat a similar surprise
awaits u opponents on the coming
9th of November.
'In view of statements
regarding the causes of the -four years
of depression which followed the sec
ond election of President Cleveland"
says President Taft in his statement,
ut may be well to recall the facts.

and made it the leading issue between
the parties. Tariff reform Is still
u purpose he said. Though we
oppose the theory that tariff laws
may be passed having for their OBJ
ject the granting of discriminating
and unfair governmental aid to pri-
Vate ventures, we wage no exter-
minating war against American in
terests.' This has a familiar sound
today, save that, instead of tariff
REFORM the Democratic slogan now is
a tariff for revenue only According
to the Baltimore platform the tariff
is not merely to be reformed. but
the principle of protecting American
industry is to be excised. root and
branch. On that platform Governor
Wilson stands.
"As Secretary Knox says, the for
eign market is a vital consideration
in our industrial life, and wherever
we may look we find American
products forging their way into the
great markets of the world. To
quote from a leading newspaper:
The figures are almost bewildering.
They tell the story of prosperity
which should not be disturbed
Then why disturb it? l would not
suspect the Democratic candidates
for the White House and for the
capitol of such falsity to their
pledges that they do not intend to
disturb it. Their speech is very much
like that which heralded the election
of Mr.. Cleveland, and they may be
presumed. in justice to themselves,
to be as sincere in their purposes as
he was. Therefore they do intend to
disturb the prosperous business We
are now enjoying at home and with
foreign countrles-for u foreign
trade is based largely on provisions
of the Payne tariff law, which the
Democratic party condemns and pro-
poses TO repeal"
