THE COM.MERCI L OUTLOOK. "The best if times for th- country Is Just ahead," sas Jnines J. Hill. !r. Henry- 'lews, the banker and financial expert, whose weekly letters haye lately been ting- some what with pessimism due to hi prox imity to Wall street. is dei iilelly more encouraging- In his view of pr-s-ent conditions. The recent de line in "values" has "put the market upon .1 safer and sounder basis." The many disturbing influences in world polities have either distinctly 'Improved or been fully discounted for the time being. "Without doubt the technical position of the market has positively Improved, and though the clouds have not by any means rolled away and left clear sunshine, a fair rally In values has been distinctly warranted. Whether it will make further progress or not depends largely upon "ents. Should these prove favorable, still higher prices may be expected, for those who bought freely two weeks ago to stop the decline want better profits than the market yet offers be fore letting go their surplus holdings." The Improvement In the bond market la a favorable feature, so Is the in crease In exports. ; The war in Europe is not very seri r ous per e, but may at any time dis turb delicate adjustments. Berlin's financial crisis has been tided over; Paris and London breathe easier. "The efforts to trace causes for the recent financial depression still con tinue. They are numerous enough to cause amusement were it not for the serious consequence Involved. The majority of opinion are based upon conditions with which th-lr authors are chiefly familiar. Pome blame Mr. Hoosevelt, some ho'.u Prer'-lent Taft responsible, others Mr. Wlckersh.irn. Home say politics, others say too much speculation l the bottom of present difficulties. Home blame the tariff, others the antl-truiit law. Home noy high prices are responsible, others partial crop failures. A few say oo many securities, many say too much Inflation. At one time the Mexican difficulty was blamed, at another tho Supreme court decisions: still later, the Moroccan crisis proved the most popular explanation for cur troubles, but even that has temporarily disap peared without leaving corresponding Improvement. The truth is all of these explanations have contributed to the decline in Wall street values, though after all they are but part of the phenomena, connected with a gen eral trade reaction following the world-wide boom which seemed to culminate this midsummer." THE EM "OUT TO H EC ALL COM- PETITION. President Taft ha informed all ' who car to hear that he is taking the middle of the road. And at that he must recognise that by this time he I going a rocky a way as ever man trod. Upon the present administration has been forced the necessity of tamper ing with business conditions estab lished through decades, and the pre sident fully realizes the danger of hi position. In his Pocatello . speech be pointed out that drastic economic readjustments eould not be attained without adverse affect on business, and he pleaded for cheerful compli ance with the law a the speediest mean of passing through the period of travail. The President 1 forced to heed a popular; demand attaining great proprotlona to equalize mors nearly economic opportunity, while, at the slightest effort to tamper with It, Big Business) draw back with cries of fright, real or feigned, and the stock market shlvtr at Taft' every word. 'I he President knows that if the end doe not Justify hi policy, and he should mske a serious mis take, those who are urging him on would bo the flrst to turn against him. and that hi administration, however well Intentloned, would b 6U.redlt el. It would seem that a real and dras- t;' reform along th lines Indicated 1 v the Supreme court and advocated Mr. Taft would demand a more . j hif rw'J" ii-.o.t, as a matter , thiin tb rt'oiediH proposed --or. I :.i ( y i'utes- men of progressive tendencies- gener ally have regarded huge combinations of capital as enevitable. and favored placing them tinder governmental control, but Mr. Taft would shiver the whole structure and call back the day of actual and active competi tion. ...

Secretary Wilson had the misfor tune to be on the unpopular side of this issue in the beginning, and that the President threw his case out of court is a severe blow to his prestige, so that statements are frequently heard that his usefulness as a cabinet officer is ended. Singularly unfortunate in many of his political alignments, it must be i conceded that Secretary Wilson's ad- J ministration of his department has I been such as to cover multitude of sins, in the storm of adverse criti cism and contemptuous comment, it ought to be rememlered that under his direction the portfolio has been of incalculable benefit to the Ameri can farmer. Scientific research of value has been prosecuted along many lines, new plants have been intro duced, experiment station work has been brought abreast of the times and reliable crop reporting methojs worked out. It is because of the friends he has made that Secretary Wilson Is blameworthy and not be cause he has failed to handle the ad ministrative work of his office with zeal and foresight. QUOTING IR WII.SOX AS AGAINST CANDIDATE WILSON'. Jovernor Woodrow Wilson seem In a fair way to experience some of the embarrassment which hampered Col. Theodore Roosevelt in his political ' career and which Is the curse of pub-1 Helms who lay aside the pen to seek eiectlve office. Repudiating the ut terances of 20 years. Gov. Wilson has lately come out as an advocate of i the referendum and recall, evidently bent upon making that an issue in his race for the Democratic Presiden tial nomination. It must therefore have been with mixed feelings that he learned that counsel for a Pacific Coast corporation the other day quo ted him. in a brief filed with the Supreme Court, In support of the ) position that referendum and recall are repugnant to the constitution of the United States. The change of heart of Gov. Wilson In this matter I causing constema ion among Democrats of a not ultra- progressive cast, who apply the rule of expediency, if not of reason, to their political conduct. Throughout his long and distinguished career as the head of Princeton, Woodrow Wil son was an untiring opponent of these innovations, so that his sud den advance to more radical ground has occasioned much speculation. Many of his admirers South and East remember that Bryan dashed his most signal oportunity against the rock of government ownership and are won dering whether Wilson will meet s like fate and drag the party to defeat with him. This class seem to regard the move as bid for Bryan support and for that of the radical of all parties, but the effect It wilt have on th great conservative host I feared.

Ask Arbitration Treaty With Germany ' Washington. Oct. Th n.rmnni of th United States, as represented by the German-American alliance now n convention hss. have signified their wish that Germany enter Into nego tiations With th Unltert Ptntfis for a general arbitration treaty similar to those with Great Britain and France now pending ratification by the United Stales senate. If R man wants to poe aa . i r- n ii 1 a ' 1 I " l an uj.j.oi t OFFICIALS OF SU REACHED CITY YESTERDJIY Messrs. Finley, Hardwick and Wearnicke Each on a Mis sion of Importance. W. W. Finley. president of the Southern railway, arrived in Asheville points wouiu oe con tinued and the winter tourist tickets to southern points, which go on sale October 15, will route the tourists by Asheville one way. either to or from the southern point. This will prove of very great advantage to this section, giving the great throngs from tile north a passing glimpse, at least, of the beauties here. Other advantage ous and convenient transportation fa cilities are under consideration that will very materially effect Asheville but thee are not yet so far assured as to be announced. Mr. Wearnicke is the assistant land and industrial aent of the Southern system, and during his stay here will confer with Secretary Buckner of the board of trade about certain factory propositions for Asheville. The two held a short conference this morning and discussed the possibilities of five or Bx ,uch propositions. Some of these have been under consideration for some time, data as to labor, trans portation facilities, fuel, power, etc., have been furnished the Interested parties and it is certain that some of the factories will be secured. No statement has lieen given out as to what sort of manufactures these in clude but the assurance is made that any of them will add materially to Ashevllle's industrial progress. The Southern company, through the officials, are displaying marked inter est in the development of this sec tion, with Asheville as the natural dis tributing center and It Is safe to pre dict that, with their co-operation, the local board of trade will succeed in securing some very much coveted manufacturing companies.
