CAMPAIGN FAKE rs EXPOSED.

Republican protectionists, who every
presidential year work day and night to
create the impression that a Democratic
tariff-refOrm victory will mean business
depression, are put to rout this year by an
analysis of export and import figures for
merchandise issued by the Bureau of For
eien and Domestic Commerce,
These figures show that despite the fact
that this is presidential year the export
and import business is larger for the year
ended August 81, 1912, than any cor
responding year in the last six years.
Business, instead of becoming staenant in
view of the prospective election of Wood
row Wilson on a tariff-reform platform, is
gaining by leaps and bounds. The month
of August, 1912. itself shows a distinct
gain over July and June and ranks even
with May of the same year.
For the year ending August 81, 1912. the
imports of merchandise were SLIP, 847,-
375; for the corresponding month of 1911
they were $l,515, 551,796; for 1910, ST.
583.038,894; for 1908. $1,121, 532 1856.
The exports of merchandise for the cor
responding month of 1912 were $2,249,-
346.490; for 1911. $2,O71,5O8,476; for
1910. Sits, lS9.745. and 1908. $l,818,-
595,995.
These figures tend to show that foreign
ers who are doing business with American
merchants, and the American manufac-
turers who are shipping goods abroad are
not worried by the Republican cry of hard
times" which the protectionists are raising
as the probability Of Wilson's election be-
comes greater. Business is going on as
usual
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Curtis has given out a statement in which
he says the custom revenues are also
growing by leaps and bounds and that
the prospect of deficit in the government
treasury, which was anticipated last Janu-
airy. is nowhere in sight at this time. He
says this presidential year is exceptional
in that the campaign has not depressed
business.
