they say, hesitate to PLACE orders Of
any size hoping for reductions. This
condition is due to the general un-
certainty in all of the textile mark
cts. Prices for next springs goods
the wholesalers say, will be as high
as for the spring just passed. Deal
ers are shaving prices as much as
they can for they find it difficult to
get loans from the banks and they
need ready capital.
Manufacturers are keeping up pro-
duction to q limited extent. Whole
salers can not place big orders with
them because of the lack of interest
displayed by their customers. Several
Of the local houses have thousands

| OF New York;
| Japanese competition In our do
nestle markets does not menace
American industry. The first factor
is distance. Yokohama is 1886 nauti-
cal miles from San Francisco. 1899

canal, and S414 statute miles by wat
| er and rail route via San Francisco.
Freight charges are not large tom
/ in the case Of articles the value Of

! 1t is Obvious that the distance makes
Japanese competition a negligible
factor in the heavier classes of conf
modities which the United States is
fitted to produce either by reason of
natural resources or the character of
the labor supply Japanese compete
ton is much more important factor
on the Pacific coast than on the At
lantic seaboard, But it is likewise true
that about 80 per cent of the popula-
ton of the United States, and hence
approximately the same percentage
of purchasing power. is east Of Dem
yer, so the relatively more advan-
tageous position Of japan on the pa
cific coast is not to be regarded as
constituting serious threat to Amer
lean industry.
The second factor is the relative la
Dor cost. In recent years great
changes have taken place in the la
Dor situation in Japan. Prices have
risen even more rapidly than In the
United States. Wages have advanc-
cd to meet the increased cost Of liv-
ing is rising. Altho 1t is prob
slowly growing out Of its passive
orientalism and the standard of liv
ing is rising. Although it is prob
able that the efficiency Of Japanese
labor is improving as a result Of
changing conditions. the gain has not
yet been great enough to, offset the
increased money cost which has TAX

should not he at any marked disad-
vantage as far as sales in the United
! States are concerned.

critics without knowing all about It.
However. he is not worried but
charges the numerous and sometimes
severe criticism to general apathy on

issues as viewed by his party.
THE position Of the party in this
campaign" Mr.. Calderwood said, ais
that the prohibition party is needed
in the failure of the major parties to
take any stand on the prohibition
question.
Next to prohibition, our candi-
dates will discuss the league Of ma
tons. I think we take the best stand
of any on this question. We urge i'm
mediate notifications Of the league
treaty together with the covenant We
believe the quickest and best way to
.optain what changes are, needed is
to get into the league and fix it from
the inside, according as experience
teaches, rather than stand around
theprizing to no effect on the outside
and so blocking progress"

ION pdFIES pTeSlQenClal nominee,
