Business Will Eeturn to
Normal Now That Politi
cal Affairs of i Country
Have Been SettledBe
viyal o Trade.
(BpeeUl Dlapatek to Th J our sal.) .-i
Chicago, Nov. 4, That prosperity and
revival of business will follow the claaa
of the Taft presidential contest is the
generally expressed view of business
men. The. revival In industrial and
commercial fields is not to be confined
to any particular kind of business, but
will "be general in the belief of those
who hold this view. All lines of trade
and industry will feel the beneficial ef
tects of the removal of the factor of
uncertainty. The revival, it is predicted,-
is likely to begin almost Immediate
ly and will continue In ever-lncreaatnar
volume during the next six months or
' flo, until the. affairs of the nation in a
ouuiuess way are onca more normal,
. End of Depression.
Railroad men 'and bankers, manufae-
' turers and merchants, stockbrokers an-1
board of trade men, all Join In declar
ing the termination of the. conflict
means the end of depression. One of
the Immediate effects will be the carry
. lng through of many deals, and many
of them for large sums, which were
awaiting the cessation of the suspense.
It is stated that millions of dollars are
represented In - business transactions
, which were held "subject to release." All
this volume ef business will now be
Electrified into life.
Brokers -and 'board of '"trade "men
prophesy there will be the best times
- seen for many months on exchanges and
boards of trade. Dealing in stocks will
become active and there will be large
xpenditures both for Investment and-
for speculative purposes.'
It is stated that American securities
will become more-active In European
money centers. Foreign Investors have
been somewhat conservative of late, but
will now reenter the American field
With assurance. .
Wl aranoli Out,
In the manufacturing field there will
'Be an Increased output and the buying
of far larger quantities of raw material
than for montbs. Manufacturers and
jobbers have been carrying exception
ally small stocks for some time, but will
now begin once more to branch out.
The railroad men Join the ranks of
the prophets of prosperity. It is the
feneral opinion among transportation
nterests that better business condi
tions will obtain, almost Immediately.
Although many of them do not like tlio
fact that Taft apparently stands for all
of the Roosevelt policies, nevertheless
they are convinced he. is the best
equipped and sanest man for the post
tlon. ' Although they would not talk for
publication upon the subject, of in
(creased freight rates, there are a few
'who do not believe Taft's election will
obviate the necedslty of either a gener
al increase in rreirgnt rates or the al
ternative of reduced wages.for-railroad
employes1. Business men in general ar
looking to the railroads to aid business
materially. The moment the railroads
begin going forward again in the gen
eral direction of expansion, It Is de
clared, the whole country will move
with them. -

TAFT'S ELECTED
Filipinos Look With Confi
dence to Two Former In-
sular Governors.
By H. Lee Clotworthy, Staff - Corre
spondent of th .United Press, on
Board the Battleship Georgia.
Manila, Nov. 4. The Americans of
Manila and the men - of the fleet are
celebrating the election of Taft to the
presidency. '
The people of Manila expect an entire
change of policy on the part of ' the
government toward the Islands under
the administration of President Taft.
owing to his Intimate knowledge of
Philippine affairs and his extensive ex
perience here as governor.
It is expected . that strict restraint
will be exercised over the agitators
who, have been clamoring for Immedi
ate self-government for the Filipinos,
and there Is little doubt that the mere
fact of Taft's election will quiet much
of this talk.
The general impression prevails that
General Luke E. Wright secretary of
war, will have. active charge of the
Philippines question. As General
Wrlaht also served as governor of the
Philippines the islands expect to re
ceive mucn attention unaer me admin
istration of President Tart,
The firmness of General' Wright In
handling politicians Is well known, and
It Is expected that, he will take vigor
ous methods of directing the Islands'
affairs. - r ;
Both Taft and Wright have many
friends in Manila, and there Is much re
joicing at the success of the 'Republi
can party. The Americana here look
forward to an era of great prosperity
and ..extensive industrial development.
The men of the fleet, a large ma
jority of whom are ardent supporters of
President. Roosevelt, are delighted with
the result of the election, not alone be
cause of their admiration of Taft, but
because, t&ey look upon it -as an In
dorsement y the people of the Roose
velt administration. . The sailors think
the sending of the fleet around the
world was not the least Important act
of the administration, and they see In
the result of the erection an indorse
ment of the world cruise.
JAPS CONSIDER IT
A VICTORY FOR
ANTI-EXCLUSION
(United Pms Leased Win.)
Tokio, Nov. 4. All Japan is delight
ed with the outcome of the presidential
election In the United States, and pa
pers In various oitles Issued extras an
nouncing the victory Of Judge Taft.
The Japanese are particularly pleased
with the Indorsement of the adminis
tration of President Roosevelt, whom
they look upon as their good friend.
President-elect Taft is well remem
bered and much admired in Japan.
Many references to his visit to this
country last year are published today.
The fact that the Democratic party
on the Paclflo coast made an Issue of
Japanese exclusion also makes the re
sult' s source of gratification,' as the
people consider It a. rebuke by their
American friends, who, the visit of the
fleet has led them to believe, are in
the majority.

Vote Shows Gains.
(United Press -Lessed Wire.)
Chicago, Nov. 4. The Socialist vote
- of 16.000 shows a loss of 18,000 from
the figures of 1904. National Commit
teeman Simons In explaining the falling
off, said: , "
"The. "reduction is largely the result
Of the efforts of the organisation to
' make its members support the old par
ties. The Increase of the Socialist vote
.throughout 'the entire country will be SO
per cent, despite the falling .off In the
lndilttrlal centers." .
It Is thought by pollclans here that
the Socialist vota In 1904 in Chicago
was made abnormally large by .the bal
