If: you will kind' ly allow me. space T will' endeavor to correct the misleading statement made by the•Messrs. Beardrnote and otherti composing tilts combine, when con- fronted by Sir Ricbard Cartwright with, the printed declaration to he signed by tbe buyers of sole leather. The reply was that the document was called into existence on aecotittt of the action of certain Atnericap'•iirina iii ingterfeering with their ettpe1tattiol1o,of Stile leather, and the:securing of theho a market by offering a rebate to all those inter- ested, who have not imported any sole leather, except oak sole leather. Now, tbis sounds all very plausible and fair, but let me tell you,, sir, that this is not the only objept,these gentlemen have in view. Their " object is two -fold.; First, by trying t.o get the tariff on sole, leather increased s9 eie to prevent com- petition with foreign countries, acid, second, to prevent -competition at home by combining together and issuing cir- culars to the buyers of sole leather al- lowing rebates to such bnyers, upon their consenting to certain conditions contained therein. I have before me the affidavit, which has to he signed and sworn to by the buyers of sole leather before they are alluived the re - hate. If you will kindly allow me I w ill give to the public souse extracts from this precious document, which goes on to say: "I do solemnly declare, first. that I ant a member of the firm of , carrying on the business of in the— of , and as such have a full and intimate knowl- edge of all transactions ohm/ said firm or business, and know that the statements herein contained are abso• lutely correct, . • "Second, that since the day of up- to the tiwe of the making this de- clatration, I have neither purchased nor used in env way . whatever, nor con- tracted to buy, directly or indirectly, nor contracted for the production or manufacture of any sole leather of any kind or description whatever (except oak sole leather) save front the follow- ing firms.' (Here are printed the names of the firms composing the com- bine.) "Third, that my Hrw has not, n tb- er has any partner of mine, nomas anyone acting as my agent, nor hes anyone acting as the agent .of mv' fired, nor has anyone acting 'urs., the agent of arm partner .ol. nine, .pill llaZi anyor .....,htgcas bbe agent.of,thie,bud- nese deecrke:. ._" F ::. employed'by me, or by any rilti Tei o mine, or employed in connection with the business described above, nor has anyone connected with me, or with any partner of mine in any way"what- soever in the bus nese referred to above, nor has any one connected with my firm, or with the business described above. either purchased or used irt ahy way whits, ever, or contracted to buy, directly or indirectly. or contracted for the production or manufacture of ay sole leather of any kind or description whatsoever (except oak sole leather) save from She above mentioned ,firms. "Fourth, that all who are in any way connected with the business described above have in no act that would diet entitle the said business to the rebate otfered upon certain conditions by the firms above mentioned, in two circu- lars dated December 31, 1395, and Janu- ary 81, 1890, hut on the contrary, we have faithfully fulfilled, both in letter and spirit, all conditions contained in said two circulars." Now as this combine is composed of nine different firms (the circulars give n e fir a whittle names are given in the oirotdars). and the bit -wire of sole leather Must buy from them exclusive- ly or forfeit the rebate, how is it going to affect thedoxens of other sole leath-, Oe tanners throughout the country B b. bUt tbe question is asked, Oan'trthe other tat:mer'8 allow a rebate on the, same tetras as the combine. and so be on an evert footing with them ? The anbwer rs that this combine I9 composed of the only firths in Canada who manufacture !girth sole leather, and they pcaoticafl control that branch a the trade. They also manu- faeture saaughter sole leather as web, and in this line tlfey come in competi- tion with the small manufacturer out - eine of the combine, anti now here comes the point aimed at by the com- bines. They say to the buyers and dealers in sole leather, who have to have both kinds, viz., slaughter and Spanish sole leather, as both are nec- essary' in their 'business, You must buy from us exclusively or we will not give you the rebate ; that is, you have got to buy your Spanish from us, for you can get it nowhere else ; no one else makes it. You will also have to buy your slaughter sole leather from us as well, or you will lose the rebate. Now, I think I have made this point pretty dear, and you can see at once the position the small manufacturer of sole leather is placed in. The ques- tion might also he asked, Why do not .the smwll manufacturers of sole leather -go into the manufacture of Spanish sole? To this I would say that the hides necessary for the manufacture of this line have to be imported, and the small tanner lacks the capital neces- sary to do this. Ile has to confine himself to the purchase of what hides he can buy in his own locality, and is unable to manufacture Spanish sole leather on that account. I nave as many as a dozen letters from different firms stating that they are unable to buy from me on account of this com- bine ;' that theMould prefer buying in an open ntarket,, but from the exist- ing statti of things' it is against their interests to do so, and I have no doubt but that other tanners outside of the combine are in the same position as myself.' Now if this isnot a conihine, and if they do not exert an undue influence to prevent competition, what is it? It must either he a combine or a conspir- acy, and such 11 one as no Government that has the interest of the people at heart should allow to exist fora mo- ment. This association also asks file Gov- ernatent for an increase of protection, ere' it Will he impossible for them to carry on their business on account of foreign coinpetition. Why, sir, they are 'sending their surplus to Europe and competing with them there. What is to hinder them from corn pet ing with us at house? The fact of the matter is. they do not want competi- tion of any kind. Give them increas- ed Protection to shut foreign competi- tion, and they have things in such a shape that they can soon crush out competition at borne. Now, Mr. Edttor, if the Government cannot frame a law strict enough to do away with this combine (or any com- bine) the only way that I can see is so put Spanish sole leather on the free list, so' that consumers can buy their supplies where they like, and not he compelled, as is now the case, to buy from this com- bine. For my part I would sooner face open competition with the whole world than compete with this combine (.led.ars I now have to do) with 'my bands A TANNER (OUTSIDE OF THE COMBINE). December 15. The shove unrighteous combine was horn in sin about five years ago, and bas since -become so'htron g, that they threaten the very existence of the Gov- erurfient if they dare to interfere With them; and just here we ask leather cut- ters, what have you gained by your exclusive deal with the cambine, or what do you expert to gain if they succeed In driving all the slaughter sole leather tanners out of business, or what could you do then if they put up the price of sole leather higher? They have been simply chaiginq you about ten per cent. ,too high, and giving you a repate of five per cent., that is all. The above letter was published two years ago in the Globe. and we think it should be republished and kept before the public press 1111 just- ice is done. Sir Richard Cartwright stated distinctly on the floor of the House of Commons, that on proof of any combine he would open the market, and now they have got all the proof that any sane man requires, and we simply call up- on him to do justice in this natter. These are questions that the Government will he called upon to answer on the hustings. and on the floor of the House of Commons bext session, if justice is not done sooner. Oct. 20th, 1898. W. G.
