AS TO WOOL MANUTAOTUIiE.
During tho past, week Secretary Mc
Cluro of tho Woolgrowers' Association
made an earnest appeal to tho wool
raisers of all this interior country to
put up woolen mills of their own and
utillzo their product, sending out to
market only tho finished cloth and wool
en goods that would b producod in
.such factories. Fonnor Governor John
O. Cutler sees some obstacles in the
way of doing this, but. ho wishes tho
project woll, and spcak3 oncouragingly
of tho Provo woolen mill, which is work
ing night and day. Ho states also that
tho woolen mills at Pendloton, Oregon,
arc in successful oporntlon. But there
are two points which, ho brings forth
that, aro important. One is tho lack
horo of different qualities of wool,
which would have to be brought in. at
considerable expense. As Mr. Cutler
says: "Much of tho wool that goes
into tho modern 'all wool' 6uits is com
posed of part puro scoured wool, somo
extract or couibod-ovor wool, and Bomc
timos a percentage of cotton. In order
to compete irith tho Eastern manufac
turers, we would havo to ship in this
rtv(riil ntwl nMmp tti n i ilrifi 7c tt-1i?i1i wnnlfl
bring up the coat of production."
Another obstacle which he slatca is
the difficulties that would ariso "on
account of the competition in labor."
Most of tho tailors in this country aro
cither Germans or Scandinavians, as- ho
shows, and they come Hrst to Now York,
where they go to work in tho sweat
shops for half of what they arc paid
later in Chicago after the' learn tho
kind of work and tbo language. But
wo would havo to pay higher wages
here, as Mr. Cutler explains, than they
pay cither in Chicago or New York.
Tho tailor proposition, however, is nat
urally soparale from the making of the
cloth, and the first practical question
that ivould. arise would bo whether wo
could mako cloth, hore in competition
witli tho cloth of the East and sell it
in tho open markots in opposition.
"Wo judge from Mr. Cutler's expres
sions that ho does not think that this
could be done, and as ho .has had very
large exporionco both, in tho manufac
ture and handling of local made woolen
goods, his opinion is of great practical
value in this connection. But his good
will toward tho enterprise is evident,
and in this Tho Tribune heartily joins.
THE CONTESTING GOVERNORS,
Doubtless a good many people will
bo puzzled as to how it comes about
that two men aro claiming to bo Gov
ernor of the Stato of New York. The
situation arose from tbo fact that Gov
ernor Snlzcr has lwen impeached by
tho Assembly branch of the Legisla
ture of that State, and is put tip to
the Senate for trial on tho charges upon
which tho Assembly bases its articlos
of impeachment. Under tho constitu
tion of Now York, with these given
facts, the Governor is supposed to bo
automatically removed from office, pend
ing his trial. There is no question as
to the leading facts in the case. Tho
constitution clearly and plainly pro
vides that when impeachment is voted
as recited, the Governor is suspended
from office until the Senate ends tho
trial.
Why, then, does Governor Snlzer not
yield to the constitutional mandate, and
step down and out ponding his trial?
The answer is a complicated one. First
of all, ho holds that tho oaso against
him is one cooked np by Tammany, as
a part of the quarrel he haB with that
corrupt organization, and that since tho
impeachment, as he looks upon it. is
moroly a political job, it does not fall
in the meaning of Impeachment in
good faith as contemplated by the con
stitution. Second, tho impeachment pro
ceedings are brought at a special ses
sion of the legislature, and Governor
Sulzer claims that it is not competent
for the legislature in special session,
called together for another purpose al
together, to proceed with impeachment
proceedings.
To these points It is replied, first,
that tho proceedings- aro official, and
it is not competent for Governor Sul
zer to inquire into the motives of the
Assembly, and anyway, tho motive
ascribed by Sulzer is denied. Second,
that as tho legislature is in session,
there is no power that can control Its
proceedipgs; and, although it is a spe
cial session, once it is called into be
ing, tho legislature Is froo from all
restraint, and can ttike up any matter I
that it soes fit to act npon.
Governor Sulzer holds the executive
offices, and Governor-claimant Glynn
claims tho offico by right, and Is sup
ported by tho Secretary of State and
somo of tho other Stato officials. Sul
zer 's proposition to Glynn to take the
matter into court, under an agreed
statement of facts, is refused by Glynn,
who claims that tho constitution la im
mediately operative, and that there is
no quostiou to appeal to tho conrts upon
at alL
And thus the matter rests, in an ex
tremely unsatisfactory condition for tho
State.
BRITISH EXHIBITORS.
There are indications that tho British
pcoplo are not content to ignore tho
San Francisco Panama Canal Erposition,
despite tho unfavorable attitude as
sumed by tho British government there
to; and indeed hops is czpressed in
Great Britain that tho action of the
British government will bo reversed,
and that official participation in that
canal exhibit will yot be had by the
British government.
The exhibition branch of tho London
Board of Trade is seriously considering
the proposition of ending tho Arts and
Crafts exhibit, which in itself would
be a showing of great merit. This
Arts and Crafts oxhibit is a successful
fenturo of tho present World's Fair at
Ghent, Belgium, and rw a compromiso
for tho British failure of official par
ticipation in tho Panama Canal Expo
sition at San Francisco, it would cer
tainly be a feature.
But if tho British government should
repent its injudicious Tofusal to take
part in that exposition, then thoro -would
be an oxhibit all along tho lino that
would bo definitely and. distinctly worth
whilo for tho British pooplo.
RURAL CREDITS BILL.
Senator Duncan U. Flotehor of Flor
ida has introduced in tho U. S. Senato
a bill for tho creation of rural bank
credits throughout thin country, bo.sod
upon his conceptions of tho rural cred
its system of Germany. Mr. Flotehor
admits that tho procedure under this
bill wheroby tho making of long-time
loans on farm lands covering periods
from twenty to fifty years is not tho
sort of financiering thnt banks could
usually engage in, nor docs ho under
take to niako financial opcrationo of
that kind the obligatory or oven tho
voluntary business of National banks.
Nor does ho show how nuch loans could
bo offectod in the Uuitod States, -whoro
interest ia high and whero compara
tively quick turns and short-time con
tracts aro tho rufo. It is certainly
doubtful if any .National systom of
credits running from twonty to fifty
years on a 2 per cent basts, as lu Ger
many, could bo a success. In no part
of tho United States is buainoss done
on a basis of that sort, nowhero is tho
rato of intorest as low as 2 per cent,
and nowhero is there any practice or
custom -which supports a proposition for
a " per cent loan running twenty to
fifty years, whethor this loan is secured
on farm property or anything else.
Even if ho proposod to havo tho rato
3 or ! per cent, there is abundant op
portunity for pcoplo who havo money
to loud it on hotter terms, and on con
ditions that would give thorn their
money within a reasonable timo after
tho loan had been made.
In Germany conditions are altogeth
er different. There aro largo accumu
lations of monoy thero, in fow hands,
and comparatively few opportunities to
lend it are offered at a stablo revenue
In Germany a family is qulto content to
lend money on such long torms ns in
dicated, and at very low rates of In
terest, because the money accumulation
in a given family is so very groat that
the timo consideration is of no conse
quence The main thing thoro iB to
have a socuro income, and tho longor
that income is provided for the better.
Those conditions are quite different
from conditions in tho United States.
Thoro would nppoar, therofore, to be no
reason why wo should introduce ut tho
prcsout time any National system of
this sort, when thero is not in sight
anywhere the least support for it from
those who havo money. Any ono who
has monoy to invest for long time, can
buy cit', Stato, or railroad bonds with
it, or corporation bonds, running from
4 to 0 per cont, and such securities aro
alwnys negotiable. Any one who has
such bonds, can sell them on tho mar
ket, and often thero may 1)e a good mar
gin in a bond deal in itself to say noth
ing about tho interest.
Unless, therefore, Senator Fletcher
can show somo likelihood of thero be
ing money to lend in this country on
agricultural credits at extremel" low
ratos of interest and for long terms, it
would appear to be idle to press any
such measure es this.
THE CASE WELL STATED.
There is a good deal of mystery sur
sounding tho alleged proposal that Spe
cial Representative Lind was author
ized to delivor to Provisional President
Huerta in Mexico, for his guidance,
from President Wilson. Naturally tho
torms set forth by President Wilson
would havo to bo delicately couched in
order not to givo offense, for the very
intervention which President Wilson
makes in Mexican affairs is in itself of
an extremely dolicate nature. It is not
armed intervention, but it is interven
tion just the same, though diplomatic.
In the very naturo of the caso, it would
eeem also that this diplomatic Interven
tion must carry a considerable degree
of expressed distrust of President Huor
ta, who, in his position as Provisional
President of Mexico, is bo obnoxious to
President Wilson as to prevent this
country recognizing tho Mexican gov
ernment as established; although that
government is duly recognized by Great
Britain, France, Germany, and other
powers.
It has taken Mar. Lind some time to
get into any sort of diroot communica
tion with the Mexican government, but
it is stated now that ho has made that
connection, and delivered his message.
We may assume, therefore, that within
a day or two there will bo a response
It Is to bo hoped that Mr. Lind was
more fortunate in his approaches to Pro
visional Prosident Huerta than Embassa
dor Wtbson was in his approach to Presi
dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan in ex
planation of what he had been doing in
Mexico. However, Mr, Lind is a man
who has had considerable training in
publlo affairs, and it can fairly bo
hoped that he delivered his message
and laid down tho terms entrusted to
him with ns much dolicncy nnd iuof
fonslveneas as possible.
In the meantime, it is comforting
that there are at least some people in
Europe who understand fairly well the
real sentiment in this country with ro
spect to Mexico. The London Times
voicos this sentiment very woll indeed
in an editorial, in which the American
position is thus stated: "Tho ono
thing that tho American people want of
Mexico is that nho shall give them
peaco on their borders and some rea
sonable measure of security for the vast
amount of American capital invested in
Mexico and for tho lives of American
citizens."
Tino is as trur and as fair . state
mont of tho position of this country
and of tho feeling of tho citizenship of
tho Unitod States with respect to this
mattor as any ono could make, cither
in this country or elsowhcre. It states
the caso accurately, and it ought to
win friends for ur in all European circles.
BUSINESS AND TRADE.
A good dual of intorest haa been
taken during the week in the expres
sions' of the railroad advertising men
on their return from thoir trip to tho
Ycllowstoue On this return, as well
as on thoir departuro for tho Yellow
stone, these advertising men were en
thusiastic about the beauties and ad
vantages of Salt Lake City. On thoir
return thoy cave assurances that Salt
Lako City would be woll treated by
them in tho future, that thoy would
put Salt Lako City always on their
lists, and w.nuld sot forth in railroad
advertising for tourists nnd general
travolors tho desirability of a visit to
Salt Lako City nnd a stopover here
long enough to look into tho resort ad
vantages and also tho business oppor
tunities hero presentod. Tho railroad
advertising- meu were enthusiastic ovor
Salt Lake. Few of them dreamed that
wo had hero tho great advantages that
are combined in tho lako, tho canyon
resorts, nnd tho mountain breezes that
temper tho air so as to mako summer
in Salt, Lako a delight. Wo are satis
fied that much can bo fairly expected
from tho enthusiastic attitude of tho
railroad advertising mou towards Salt
.Lake.
k
During the week assurances have
been iven of good progress on tho
Orcm intorttrban road, and these as
surances wore warmly receivod in thin
city. Thoro can bo no doubt of tho
advantage of tho construction of tins
road from Payson, Spanish Fork,
Springvillc, Lehi, and other points in
Utah county to this cit-. It will open
for us a great source of farm supplies
that aro greatly needed in this city,
at rates that will uudoubtodh be fa
vorablo to "tho consumer as compared
with the rates now paid. Every one
will rejoice in the speedy construction
of this road.
The contract for putting in for the
citj- of tho dams at tho outlot of tho
lakes owned by tho city in Big Cotton
wood canyon has been let, and it is
stated that work on tho construction
of theso dams will begin tomorrow.
This is welcomo news, for that work is
needed, and the time for doing it is
limited.
Tho general business in this city has
been of the usual summer order, rather
above tho average, the woek showing
an increase in bank clearings of 5.G
per cent above those of tho correspond
ing woek last year. All of the mer
chants are enjoying a good trade, and,
as heretofore, an unusually largo per
centage of that trade is cash on sale.
Tho building operations in tho city
are boing pushed with energy, and re
sults appear every woek. This con
struction ranges, from the preliminary
work for tho Stato Capitol to the ad
vance work on the Administration
building of the University, tho east
side high school, a number of business
structures, and hundreds of dwellings
of various kinds, from the pretentious
residence to tho flat, the apartment
house, the bungalow, and the cottage
Tho realty market in Salt Lako is
alwnva fnnd. rnnft arniirifl io firm It- Imlt
Transactions arc at about the minimum
now, but in aggregate thoj' aro con
siderable evory week. The advantage
of owning Salt Lake realty is evident
to every one who looks on tho map
and notes tho centraht3 of location in
this citjr. The deal which ia on, in
volvintr the old Hogle proper ty on Main
street, above Second South, is at $8750
a front foot.
Crops of all kinds arc now woll as
sured, from tho staple grain crops to
fruits and vogotables. Everything will
bo abundant. Utah fruit raisers have
reason to oxpect an unusually cood
yield, because of the abundance and
the scarcity olsewhorc; and also
because of their organization, which
will provide for moro export picking,
packing and marketing than over be
fore. Reduced colonist rateB by the rail-,
roads will facilitate the location of uew
settlers in all this region.
Interest has mainly centered agaiu
throughout tho past week on the metal
market conditions, aud the improve
ment in prices has been steady and
gratifying. Copper reached tho 16
cent mark a Any or two ago, and it is
Btated that thoro is little or no motal
available at that price. Tho threat
ened strike in the Butto district lias
given rise to considerable uncaain'ess.
for tho production from Butte would be
sadh' missed. Should this strike bo de
clared, the likelihood of a runawa3'
copper market is as good as accom
plished, and that is something that fow
desire.
Tho world-wide tendoncy towards
optimism is boing reflected in many
linos of industr3r. but in none more
than in mining. Lead and spelter arc
firm, tho lack of stocks constituting a
factor for tho making of a stiffer price
that will ho cion more imprcssivo as
the sources of supply become depleted.
There is nothing more in demand than
lead and zinc with so little possibility
of increasing the supply.
With improving sentiment the stock 1
markets have advanced very satisfac
torily. Tho upward trend last week,
espocially in the copper issuos, was pro
nounced before tho reaction on Fridaj-.
The close yostorday was firm aud some
what higher, fl is agreed that vtbile
there will be reactions from tnui' to
timo, thi. will serve mcrelv as brakes
lest tho upward trond bo too pro
nounced. The public is coming back J
ulowls' to tho stock markets, but it is
noticed that interest-bearing 50-mriticB '
aro more in demand than purelj' spocu
lativo issuos.
Thoro is litllo chnugo In tho local
mining or mining shnro situations.
In the general business situation of
the coiutr3, tho sensation is tho dam
age to tho corn crop through heat aud
drought in tho old West. In conse
quence, tho price of corn has rushed up
boyoud all expectations, and tho
"bulls" havo oomplete control of the
market.
Tho weekly trado ro views report cur
rent distribution of merchandise of nor
mal valuo, with steady preparations for
an active fall and wintor business.
Conservatism has boon accentuated b3'
tho damago to corn, "yet in a broad
souse crop conditions aro still promis
ing, and with remunerative prices pro
vailing, anothor prosporqus year is as
sured." Heavy movomontB of grain
to innrkot contribute liberully to trans
portation rovonucs, whilo the exports
of grain aud othbr commodities added
materially to our credit balances
abroad. Tho monotary situation haa
boon roliovod to a considorablo degree,
and tho cessation of war in tho Balkans
has also eased conditions in Europe.
Tho, wool market in tho litu.t fihows
surprising strength, indicating that the
prospoctivo damago to wool prices by
reason of tho Democratic tariff bill
has boon largely discounted, and the
supplies of wool aro such as to reliove
tho dealers of any groat mulapprob.cn
siou for tho immediato future
Tho mone' supply in this country is
very PTcat, au- uasG -u tue monoy mar
ket, both Eaat and West, is reported.
Stock prices aro lowor, and "the
street" is tho weak spot in tho finan
cial and business situation, just as it
has been for a number of years past.
On tho whole, howovcr, there is no rea
son to discount tho slatoment, as made,
that, in spito of somo adverse condi
tions, "another prosperous 3'ear is as
sured. " ;
CHICAGO VOTING MACHINES.
It appears that tho City of Chicago
is under contract to buy a million dol
lars' worth of voting machines; but a
good rnauj' pcoplo in Chicago objoct to
tho uso of theso machines, and n full
investigation of thorn haa boon made,
with tho result, as wo havo noted here
tofore, of showing that tho machines
can be tampered with, and that un
scrupulous nmohino politicians can so
manipulate tho voting machines as to
carry the election their waj', in 6pito
of a very decisive, majority against
thonr.
Wo had word somo days ago that tho
experts examining theso machines had
found nine different ways of tamper
ing with them. Wo now read in a re
port on tho use of these machines in
Chicago, that one of the exports exam
ining them has claimed that he could
"fix" in that, city 100,000 votes on tho
machines. He declares that the voting
machine can be so manipulated that
ono part3' would have to get 50,000
votes beforo the machine showed one
vote cast. That is a tremendous as
sault upon tho integrity of the voting
machine when entrusted to tricky and
unscrupulous hands, aud iu the face of
such testimony it is hard to believe
that tho city of Chicago can bo made to
take and pay for the machines under
contract.
As wo have said before, wo arc fully
convinced, just as wo were at the elec
tion of 19.10, that tho voting machines
in this city were then unscrupulously
and dishonestly tampcrod with, to the
end that tho minority candidates wore
elected aud tho majority candidates de
feated, by fraud. Sinco rending these
investigations of tho voting machines in
Chicago, aud tho ease nnd many ways
in which tuoy can bo manipulated to
the advantago of tho rascally political
machine men who have charge of them,
we aro all tho moro confirmed- in our
opinion that the election of 1910 in
this placo was determined 1)3- fraud of
the most shumeloss aud vicious nature.
Wo still havo theso machines, and in
tbo hands of honest mon it is likely
that, thoy would givo honest results, but
when entrusted to unscrupulous trick
sters there sooms to bo littlo doubt that
tho volin" machines can capture the
olection br corrupt methods, as against.
11 formidable opposition majority tnat is
entitled to victory.
ARGENTINA SETS EXAMPLE.
Thero has been a good deal said re
centlj' about tho inadequacy of the sal
aries of our foreign Embassadors and
Ministers. Embassador Pago at Lon
don has to pay for his official residence
and quarters, 2iu)0 more than tho whole
of his salarj', and besides this he has
to meet his expenses of living aud all
of tho diplomatic functions that he as
Embassador will find it nccessarj- to
give, out of his privato income.
Justice GoraTd, who is slated for tho
Berlin post, has boon making a good
deal of uproar because ho finds that in
Borlin he must do practically the same
as Embassador Page has to do in Lon
don; that is, ho would have to pay $19,
000 a year for rent of suitablo resi
donco and quarters, which is $1500 more
than his total salary. Ho in thie dilem
ma haa dono a good deal of protesting,
and has made tho grotesque proposition
that all Americans claiming to retain
their citizenship of the Unitod Stalos
and living abroad constant' for moro
than one year, shall be taxod $10 an
nually to help pa' the expenses of our
Embassadors over and above tho amount
of their official salaries. This proposi
sition of Justice Gerard's is conunonly
takon as a joko, and It is possiblo that
ho is that kind of a joker, for the prop
osition is, of course, absurd.
But the clamor that he is making
tends strongly to call attention to the
fact that tho Unitod States niake3 in
sufficient provision for Its Embassa
dors and Ministers abroad. The situa
tion poworfully enforces tho suggestion
that tho United States should cither
make proper provision for its diploma
tic sorvico, or withdraw its Embassa
dors and Ministors. This latter would
afford no cause for complaint if it was
dono on general lines. For, as a matter
of fact, intercommunication betweou
tho nations is now so close and direct
that a resident Embassador or Minister
is not as essential as in former times.
Still, it is not likely that ivc shall give
up our diplomatic service. And, as this
is so, it is clearly tho duty of the coun
try to provide sufficient upkeep for the
establishments which those Embassadors
