HARTMAN AND MANCHURIA.

Mr.. Frederick Mccormick, writing in
the Century Magazine for February
on Glow America Got Into Man,
churia,' tells a secret hitherto unpub-
lished He wrote in a previous num-
ber of that magazine how the United
States secured her right to participate
In the Hankow railroad loan. He tells,
also, how Japan succeeded in frustrat.
ing the plan Of China for building a
railroad up the Lao valley, from Sin
miuthun northward to Fa- -ku-meu, a
recent undertaking which leaked out
through the inadvertencc of minor
Chinese official at Tientsin, whereupon
Japan put IN protest that was ef-
fectual. But Tong Shao.yi. who had
been a student at Columbia College,
New York, and who was an influential
adviser of the Chinese foreign Office,
and also Governor at Mukden. was dc
termined on railroad development for
Manchuria, aside from the Japanese
military line. He tried to get for this
purpose the indemnity money which the
ouitcu Dtdtcs Hhu returned TO emma.
but failed. Then he became head of
the embassy that went to Washington
to thank our Government for returning
that money. While here he entered
into confidential negotiations for rail
road building, but these were headed
off by the RootTakahira agreement, a
negotiation that patched up the
strained relations between this country
and Japan, involving mutual declara-
ton Of confidence This was held to
he concession of Japan s right to con

But there was yet recourse. In
1908, while the Portsmouth treaty of
peace was being signed, E. Fl. Harri-
man, who had been closely associated
with and had co-operated in japan IS
war loans, was visiting Prince Ito in
Japan, and got from him n memo
randum agreement for American lease
and operation of the Russian railway
in southern Manchuria It is singular,
indeed, especially in view of the
japanese hostility later on to Ameri.

but Mr.. Mccormick stoutly AYERS that
it is true.

THE CONVINCING ASSURANCES

In respect to the lack Of faith felt by
non-Mormons OF Utah (and those of
the informed in the entire country, for
that matter), in protestations of the
present church leaders that there has
been no resumption Of the polygamous
practice in the Mormon church, there Is
ample ground for this distrust.
When the composition of Utah diff
culties was had, and which eliminated
in the granting of Statehood in the
year 1896, NIL citizens of the State
except such as held fmental rcserva-
tons, - or insisted within themselves
that there were certain "tacit under
highest confidence that the beginning
of the end Of our troubles had come.
The Tribune, in order to give public
assurance from the highest sources
that this was the condition at that
time, printed q number of interviews
upon the subject. They appeared in
the issue of this paper of August 10.
1894, and from them we make a couple
of extracts, as follows:
There is not the slightest danger OF
resumption OF the practice of polygamy.
The views OF the first presidency on this
subject have been published many
times that any further statement would
merely be repetition. There is no more
danger Of "A resumption OF the practice
Of polygamy than there would be had the
practice been that OF burning widows.
We would be annihilated by public sem
timent, George Q. Cannon.

Such was the state Of feeling that
existed at that time among all those
who were honest in their efforts TO set
Utah right, However,, there has been
a change of dynasty in the Mormon
church, and with that change came the

DEPEW's sENILE JOKE.

Senator Depew has been noted al
his life long as joker. But as he
grows aged and senile. his jokes be
come mouldy and stale. He is getting
bit reckless. TOO. since his tenure in
the Senate is about up, so that when he
praises Senator Sutherland as a great
constitutional lawyer, his Jest is TO be
taken with all proper allowances. And
also, it must be viewed from the stand
point of Depew's ability to Judge of a
constitutional lawyer-or of joke.

JUDGE YOUNG IS CORRECT.

AT the Young family reunion on
Tuesday evening to protest against
the aspersions cast upon the memory
of Brigham Young, Judge LeGrand
| Young, it seems to us, took the correct
position. So far as the family interests
are concerned, recrimination will do
no good, and charges and denials, OF
counter charges, will avail nothing,
| There Is ample field for aspersion and
tack. But Judge Young considers, and
we agree with him, that in this mat
ter there is nothing TO be gained by
the revival of those old matters And
so, he advised that the subject be
| dropped so far as the Young family
is concerned. He considered, and the
meeting apparently agreed with him,
| that il was State affair rather than
family matter; and committee was
appointed to visit Governor Spry and
confer with him as to what is best
to do, And the committee, also, may
call upon Mr.. Pearsall and talk over
the details of the selection of the en-
blems on the service, with a view of
possibly taking the matter up with the
Legislature,
We may be permitted to suggest in
this connection that it is not a matter
that the Legislature would be likely
TO concern itself about, or that it ought
to act upon III any way. 1t is appro-
pirate enough TO call upon Governor
Spry, as he is active in the committee
In the selection of the designs, and
for getting up the subscriptions for
the battleship service. But the Leg,
islature has really nothing to do with
it, has not been asked TO make any
appropriation. or TO give any direction
whatever with respect to this service
nor is it State matter in any official
sense. The money to pay for the serv-
ice is TO be raised by subscriptions A
committee appointed by the Governor
has approved tho designs for the serv-
ice, and it is being manufactured on
a business order that it Will not be
easy TO recall.
And so. we think that Judge Young g
advice is good all around; that the
matter had better be allowed to rest
where it is And if it is true, as Mr..
Pearsall affirms it to be. and as we
have no doubt that it is, that nothing
more personal TO Brigham Young ap.
pears on that service than a picture of
his monument at the head Of Main
street. there is no particular occasion
for heat or rage i'll regard TO it For
ourselves. we would be glad if nothing
awakening any contention whatever
had been accepted in any Of the designs
for this battleship service. And as
we understand it,. il is quite possible
that even this picture may not be m
cluded. The last we heard from Mr.
Pearsall was that this matter was not
completely decided. The people Of the
East who revolt at this picture on the
battleship service. are exercising their
undoubted right; and while We in Utah
sympathizc with them TO some extent
we do not consider that the picture of
the Brigham Young monument in con-
nection with other local scenes in. diff
ferent parts of Utah, on that battle.
ship service, is a thing to call forth

THE sMooT SPEECH.

Apostle Smoot delivered his prom
ised-or threatened-specch in the Sen
ate on Tuesday, in opposition to tariff
revision schedule by schedule. In this
he was undoubtedly and merely speak
ing ms a mouthpiecc for Senator Aid
rich. His idea that The tariff bill is
80 interviewer, and that the schedules
arc so mutually dependent upon one
another that 10 disturb one is TO dis,
turb and disarrange the whole protec-
tive system, is the peculiar fad of Mr..
Aldrich and OF "the interests which
combined TO frame this new tariff law,
which is making so much complaint.
| But as to the point that the protec-
tive principle is involved in this tariff
law. or that the tariff law itself can.
not be dealt with schedule by schedule,
we showed the other day the contrary
opinion of President Taft, who is a
| Republican, protectionist. a jurist,
a man far more capable Of Judging in
this matter than is Apostle Smoot.
President Taft last December in his
annual message, dwelt upon the halt
and shock to business which would en-.
sue in case complete revision is under
taken, and said that this twill be
avoided by treating the schedules one
| by one as the occasion may arise for n
change in the rates of each - And he
recommended that this change should
| be made only after report upon the
pl,o1 1nln L..
tent 10 make such report He said,
further, that the carrying out of this
plan involves the full cooperation of
Congress sin limiting the considera
tion In tariff matters to one schedule
at time, because II proposed amend
ment TO 4 tariff bill is to involve a corn.
| pletc consideration of all the schedules
and another revision, then we
shall only repeat the evil from
which the business of this coun
try has in times past suffered
most grievously by stagnation and un
certainty pending a resettlement Of a
law affecting all business directly ol
indirectly.' SO that President Taft
first laid down the proposition that the
tariff should be revised schedule by
schedule. as the tariff board reports
thereon. and then emphasizes the propo
sitlon by invoking the full cooperation
of Congress i'll limiting the considera
tion of tariff matters 10 one schedule
Mt time.
In view of the emphatic position o1
President Taft on this matter, who i:
Republican and protectionist he
yond any aspiration of Smoot TO riva
can be given to Smoot s contrary opin
ION. No wonder Senator Bailey guyed
him during his discredited speech. Nc
wonder Senator McCumber, who is also
member OF the Senate finance com
mittee, and a Republican, dissented
from the Smoot view, No wonder Sen
ator Cummins of Iowa eagerly accepted
| the position laid down by Smoot as
the most advantageous TO the pro
gressive Republican idea OF any form
in which the issue could be presented
| It was certainly curious situation
where the progressive Republicans ano
the Democrats stood by President Taft
as against the standpat reactionary
Republican idea as voiced by Smoot
And every man, be he Republican oil
be he Democrat, is safe in standing by
the President on this proposition. and
