EASY MONEY FOR LAWYERS
Five Years Out of Harvard They
Average s218 a Month

Albany, n. Y, Sept. 23.-The quin-
quennial report of the Harvard law
school, class of 1905, which has just
been published by Deputy Attorney
General f. II. Letchworth, the class
secretary, contains interesting figures
as to the earnings of young lawyers
in all parts of the country. These
statistics have been compiled from
confidential reports made by over $50
men who graduated in this class The
average monthly earnings were $2lS.
The lawyers however, are earning
considerably less than those of the
class who have gone into business.
The eleven men who have done this
are earning an average of 1894 a
month above expenses.
OF those practicing law, the men
on the Pacific coast are doing the
best financially, their average earn
ings being S30S. Those in New York
City come next with an average Of
1857, while those in Massachusetts
are lowest with an average of only
$l61. Those in cities of 100000 and
over are earning 1929 as against S16O
loI muse IN Otnef places.
Those west of the Mississippi were
averaging S277 a month, and those
east of it 1895.
One of the most interesting things
about the relative advantages of To-
cation and vocation is found in the
comparison of these figures with those
made out two years after the gradu-
alton of these same men. In the in
tervening three years the earnings Of
those practicing law have increased
l27 per cent while those in business
have increased only 104 per cent.
Likewise the earnings of the men on
the Pacific coast have increased only
SO per cent as compared with 1i5
per cent for New York City and 1913
per cent for Massachusetts. This is
taken as an indication that although
1t is easier for young men to get
started in the West, a more rapid pro-
gress In the east after they are start.

FAIL OF KING MANUEL.

1t cannot be said that the uprising
in Portugal was unexpected. for ever
since the assassination OF the father
and elder brother Of the present king
in the streets of Lisbon a short time
ago the world has been prepared for
the Overturning Of the monarchy.
Portugal has been in a deplOrable
condition. morally. financially and
otherwise. for a long. long time. Its
rulers have been vicious and its citi-
zens degraded. From being a first
class power it has refrigerated until
for over a century past it has been
an object OF contempt throughout the
civilized world.
Perhaps regeneration may come if
the present revolution is successful
and the republicans are able to hold
themselves in check and administer
the affairs OF the government wisely
and we'll when the reins of power are
within their grasp. Otherwise it is
possible the great powers Of Europe
viii be compelled to intervene.
The history of Portugal is bound up
IN great measure with that of Spain,
the two countries forming what is
known as the Iberian peninsula. II
was dominated by the Carthagenians
three centuries before the Christian
era, was conquered by the Romans
two hundred wears later. was oyerrun
by the Visigoths in the fifth century
and finally fell a prey 10 the Arabs
shortly after the rise of Mahomet.
Ferdinand of CASTLE recovered
most Of the country from the Arabs
IN the eleventh century and less than
one hundred years later his grandson.
Alfonso. with the ala OF the English
crusaders, rescued Lisbon from the
clutches OF the Moors and that city
became the capital of the new coun-
try.
The rise of Portugal was rapid in
the succeeding centuries. in spite Of
frequent and disastrous wars with
Spain. The fourth son OF King John.
known as Henry the Navigator. made
the most important geographical dis
eoveries OF the age in which he lived.

the Portuguese possessions were en-
OrmOusly increased.

SENATOR SWITZERLAND.

The nasty, snarling fight being
made by the Salt Lake Tribune
against the junior Senator from Utah
is one OF the despicable things which
that organ OF hatred and dissension is
constantly doing. Politically, the
Tribune is opposed TO Senator Suther-
land, an an honest, fair and square
night is one OF the last things from
which Senator Sutherland is willing
10 retreat. The constant backbiting.
insinuating, miserable little inuendoes,
attempts 10 say something by infer
ence which it is not willing to say
plainly. is unworthy a newspaper with
even so little standing In the com
niunity as the Tribune.
The salt Lake Tribune knows how
Senator Sutherland is regarded in
Washington. It knows that he is
looked upon as one OF the foremost
lawyers in that body. He is known
10 have a keen and discerning legal
mind. and that he is capable of any
Of the highest Offices in the gift of the
people. The Tribune knows that the
difficult work In the Senate which re-
.quires a knowledge of the law and of
logic. and the rules of evidence. is
placed upon the shoulders of such
men as Senator Elihu Root and Sen
ator George Sutherland. The Tribune
knows that Senators Root and Suth-
erIand are held up together as the
two men in the Senate 10 be consulted
when a matter OF law is in question.
1t is some distance from Washing
ton 10 salt Lake. The saying that a
prophet is not without honor save in
his own country and among his own
people does not apply in the case of
Senator sutherland. however. for the
people OF salt Lake know and appre-
ciate him. The purpose OF the Trib-
une is 10 discredit the junior Senator
if it can be done, on the principle that
if it tells the lie often enough it may
believe il itself after awhile. and may
get some other people TO do likewise.
In Washington. and in the east, SEN
ator sutherland's record as a senator

Hope and discovered a new route to
india. this feat being accomplished IN
1886, six years before the discovery
of America by Columbus. In the year
1890 Portuguese sailors reached Bra
I'll, in South America, and in the
succeeding twenty-five years Portu-
gal reached the summit of it's glory.
The introduction of the inquisition
and the persecution and expulsion of
the Jews checked the development of
the country and Portugal was con-
quered by the Spanish Duke of Alva
and the crown was given to his mas
ter. Phillip II.
In 1910 the Portuguese rebelled
and in 1871 the Duke of Braganza be-
came king. England assisting in plac,
ing him firmly upon the throne under
the title of John ". Since that time
the country has had many ups and
downs, but its retrogression has been
none the less continual. The present
boy king is a descendant Of the Duke
of Braganza, and the house of that
name has been recognized as the
reigning family since the duke threw
off the Spanish yoke in 1641.
One by one the Portuguese lost
their colonial possessions. until but
little remains, and that little on the
east and west coasts OF Africa Their
greatest colonial possession. Brazil,
was lost in 1926, when the independ-
ence of that country was recognized
under the Emperor Pedro, another
scion of the house of Braganza.
Brazil became a republic in the lat
ter part of the last century, the Bra
zilians taking advantage of the alb
| sence of Dom Pedro. who was induced
TO pay a visit to the home of his an
| cestors. Now the last of the Bragan-
zas has been toppled from the throne
and Portugal itself declared a repub-
lie. Whether its people are intellec-
tually and morally strong enough TO
govern themselves remains TO be seen.

SLEEPY AsIATICs.

The Dry Farming congress is hold
ing interesting and profitable sessions
at Spokane, and the National Con-
gress of Farmers will hold the first
session of the thirtieth annual meet
ing at Lincoln, Neb.. this morning.
American farmers in general are con-
stantiy on the lookout for new ideas
and improved methods of tilling the
soil. Consequently their progress has
been more or less wonderful.
Very different is the practice of the
farmer in the Yemen district of Ara
bia, a country famous for the prod
ucts of the soil. Agriculture is the
chief industry of this happy land, but
the method of cultivation today is the
same as it was 1000 years ago.
The tools of the Yemen farmer are
but four in number-the pillow, the
threshing fail, a pick with a short
handle. but a long. curved steel point,
very strong and sharp. and the broad
bladed. powerful knife which every
Arab carries in his belt.
The pillow is drawn by one or two
oxen. sometimes by an OK and wom-
an. It has a single handle of wood
and a wooden beam. but the share is
OF iron, about a foot in length. and
sharp. This pillow does not turn the
soil under, but is said to cut a good
furrow four or five inches deep.
Even with such a primitive nipple
ment IT is said that the Yemen farm
er can run as straight a furrow and
break up the surface of the soil as
well as any American plowboy. 1t is
also a fact that in spite OF their crude
farming machinery the Yemen farmers
have an almost perfect system fol-
the superficial cultivation of the soil
Not nook or Granny of single field
is neglected.
Yet Yemen is not making the least
progress and the crops produced
grow smaller from generation TO gen.
Grafton. Fertilizers are not used to
any great extent. and the crops are
cut off at the root, so that no stubblt
is left to enrich the earth by its de-
cay. If the Yemen farmers could
only attend some of the agricultural
meetings held annually in the United
States how wonderfully could theil
condition be improved.
In time the deserts of Asia MAJ

UTAH STATE FAIR.


In no other manner is the progress
made by Utah from year to year so
amply set forth as in the exhibits at
the fair grounds. There are adver-
tisemsnts If the trade journals calling
attention 10 the thoroughbred horses
and cattle, sheep and swine and fowls
OF the purest strains 10 be found in
the country. but the real things are
In the stalls and pens at the fair,
ready for the inspection of those who
take delight in the improvement OF all
kinds OF stock and the feathered
tribe.
Nowhere in the West is there a
more magnificent or attractive live
stock exhibit. yet this is but single
feature OF the Utah state fair. The
display OF fruits and vegetables is
worth going many miles TO see, and
The grain OF all kinds cannot be ex-
eeiied in this intermountain country.
Perhaps it would not be too much TO
say that the fruit on exhibition is un-
equaIed IN variety and quality the
display OF apples being especially
noteworthy on account OF the car
load lots.
Then there is the exhibit OF the
mechanical arts. the work Of the chill
Gren in the graded schools. as we'll as
o. the students in the colleges and the
university; the work OF the city and
state boards OF health showing the
advancement made in guarding the
public against diseases OF all kinds;
the handiwork Of the wives and
mothers and young girls with the nee
dIe-every exhibit being first-class
and up 10 date.
The speed ring is OF more than
usual excellence this year. rejecting
great credit upon the management
and those in immediate charge OF the
racers and roadsters. The races at
the state fair have always been a
drawing card and. being free from the
odium that sometimes attaches 10 or
binary horse races. are greatly en-
joyed and appreciated.
Utah state fairs are The best pos

what they have seen. and are loud in
their praise OF the officials who have
put in their time during the past year

While there were many good
speeches at the Republican county
convention, and much repartee thai
seemed TO fit the situation. the bright
particular quip was made by one OF
the delegates from the Fourth pre-
einct, Harry S. Joseph. The latter
was speaking. when an intoxicated
individual, who had been twice eject
ed from the theatre. boisterously init
mated that he disagreed with the
speaker. When Mr.. Joseph turned or
him and said. There's a Democratic
prohibitionist in the house." the shout
of laughter drove the inebriated into
outer darkness.
