The ground on which Mr.. Circuit re-

sHUsTER IS VIGOROUS.

One cannot help but admire the vigor
with which Mr., W. Morgan Shustcr de
nounces Great Britain IN its infamous
partnership with Russia for the seizure
| of Persia after both nations had sol
emnly guaranteed the independence Of
that ancient Empire. Every word that
he saws in dcnuuciatiou OF the coward
" and pitiable position in which Great
Britain finds itself with respect to
Persian affairs is fully borne out by the
facts. 1t is noteworthy. too. that In
Great Britain Mr.. Shustcr put the
matter squarelv before tho British pub
lie in practically tho same way, so that
he is not saving anything on this side
of The water that he was afraid TO say
on the other side 1t is. good talk all
through
When he passes from the general
diplomatic situation to the particular
matters with which he was concerned, he
is equally vigorous, and be makes very
clear what has been practically assured
before, that the honest administration
Of the financial affairs of Persia was
the last thing that either Great Britain
or Russia desired Inferentially, also,
he takes q fall out of the London Times
where il held that Mr.. Shuster should
have conferred with Russia and Great
Britain and followed their advice in
the administration OF Persian finances.
This would have been clear betrayal
of his contract with Persia, and as Mr.,
Shuster was desirous to fill, and ac-
tually was honestly fulfilling, his ohlI-
cations TO his employer, which was the
Persian Government, it was impossible
that he should play the traitor in the
way that the London Times suggests.
In dealing with the personality of
his successor, Mr.. Shuster Is even more
pronounced. He does not hesitate to
call NJ, Mouard a thief. and he explains
that in the plain language of America,
he is obliged to call him thief in or
der TO express his opinion of him.
The whole talk is decidedly refresh
ing, and Americans will welcome Mr..
Shuster home all the moro heartily be-
cause of his manly defense of himself
and his attack upon others 80 far as
such attack is necessary for a complete
defense of himself and his acts.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1912-02-24

goD. IT would seem also to be decisive
in the Cunningham coal land claims in
Alaska, and generally to be COM
plcte ovcrturnine OF the common uu'
derstandipg Of all this sort Of business
wherever prscticcd. II would probably
also overturu all the alleged coal
land fraud suits in Utah and elsewhere,
1t would completely reverse the case
which President Roosevelt so mallg-
nantlv prosecuted against Senator
Mitchell of Oregon, and would he a

Hermann, also OF Oregon, prosecuted

1t is indeed a sweeping decision. and
one that will completely change the
whole color Of an immense number OF
cases throughout this whole Western
region. If that ruling is affirmed by
the u. S Supreme Court, then the
crossest aud most cruel injustice has
been done TO large numbers of men IN
many parts OF the United States.

CONTENTS OF A BUSHEL.

The L. S. Treasury Department has
recently made a decision in Gus.

this country 10 be the Winchester
bushel formerly used in England, con
tanning 2l50.42 cubic inches. The I'm.
perial bushel now used in Great Brit
ain. however, supersedes both the Win
chester bushel and the old Scotch
busbel. which was almost equal 10 one
and half Winchester bushels. The
Imperial bushel now in use in Great
Britain contains 221S.192 cubic inches.
The standard bushel measures prepared
by the u. 5. Government an1 distrib-
uted to the States hold each 1924
pounds Of distilled water at 39S de.

lent Of the Winchester bushel SO that
the United States standard is the Win

ECONOMIC ILLS ADMITTED.

The Smoot organ Yesterday morning
assailed Governor Wilson on account
Of his speech before the Kansas Demo
cratic Club, aud administered the SC
vero censure upon him that spouting
platitudes does not remove our econ
omic ills. - Which is true enough III
way. but is Just as true as applied 70
anybody else as applied to Governor
Wilson. There is great deal of spout
ing of plstitudcs, a conspicuous IN
stance of which was Roosevelt S speech
before the Ohio constitutional conveu-
ton, which was made up chiefly OF
platitujes and commonplace, solemuly
and impressively uttered. as though IT
all were something newly discovered,
brain heat.
But, why should we have economic
ills ss long as We have such glorious
company as the Federal bunch, Sen
ators Snoot and Sutherland In the Up.
per House Of Congress, and Representa-
tive Howell in the Lower House7 Why
should there be economic ills with this
gIittering array Of prophets, seers, and
revelators, representing the State Of
Utah in the halls of Congress? The
leading Senator is especially sustained
regularly twice a year as prophet, seer,
and revelator, and the other two act
only and exclusively under his coun.
sci and permission. Why, then, are
there economic ills7 Why admit econ,
on1ic ills that any sort OF public or
political action can cure7 What is au
organ for, unless it is to maintain
through thick and thin that everything
is as right AS can be as long as its
party is In power? The admission that
there are economic ills, and such evil
ones that even the spouting Of plati-
tudes cannot cure under the benign and
prophetic dispensatiou under which we
live, is fatal to "the cause 1t is
something that An organ which really
knows its business would never ad
r,if
