The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-12-05

seizure OF territory is clearly demon
strated by the action OF Secretary
Bryan, who, only a few days ago, dip
lomatically informed England that the
presence of an English battlcship squad
ron in Mexican waters would be regard
cd by this country as offensive.
1t will be recalled that tho United
States intcrvcned in Santo Domingo
and took possession Of tho customs TO
pay foreign claims. and we still are
collecting those debts.
In view of the attitude Of the United
States for ninety years, Tho Tribune
feels justified in reiterating its con-
tention that under the Monroe doctrine
this country must protect the interests
of foreigners in the Latin republics, be-
cause it denies to the foreign nations
the only effective means by which they
can protect those interests.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-12-05
CHRISTMAS BUSINESS.

Salt Lake merchants are looking for
ward to exceptionally good Christmas
business this year. Tho holiday trade
in 1912 was record breaker, and it is
expected that the 1912 figures will be
exceeded this season. A number of
fortunate conditions have combined to
maintain Salt Lakes steady onward
march while other cities Of the country
have for months past been in the
depths of a business depression. The
output of the mine, the farm, the or
chard and range has been large, and
prices for everything the Utah producer
has to offer have been excellent. This
condition has been tremendously bene-
ficial to Salt Lake City, which has
profited further by the amount of pub
lie work that has been in progress.
The Christmas trade last year re-
ceived a considerable stimulus by rea'
son Of the action of the railroads, which
offered special rates at Christmas time
that enabled persons living at consid-
erable distance from the capital TO
come to Salt Lake and so enjoy a
wider range for their Christmas pur-
chases. AT the request of the mer.
chants, the railroads are repeating this
innovation Of last year, and it is be
lieved that the effect will be cumula-
tive so that not only last year, shop
pers from the country and smaller
towns in the state, but many others
will take advantage Of these lowered
railroad fares.
