Protests OystePmen's Action

Mr.. Editor:
As a member of the Oystermen' S
Association, and being deeply in
terested in the welfare and pro-
lection of our oystermen, | desire
to protest vigorously, for one, the
action of the Association, so far
as our own Association is con-
cerned When this Association was
formed, l, together with many 9th
ers, formed in good faith and good
conscience, and paid our money al
ter the adoption of a constitution
and bylaws, which strictly pro
vided that there should be no poll
tics in our Association. From the
very first there were charges, which
l thought were unfounded, but which
l now discover to be true, that GER
tain members would attempt to
swing the organization for their own
political or personal purposes.
l now, for one, protest against
the action of Tuesday night. Our
Association has never authorized
any delegates to name a ticket for
them, and l, for one, would not
delegate to anyone in this age of
direct primaries, to select candi-
date for me, or agree to give up
my politics, to be controlled by
few delegates Every FISHERMAN
belonging to the Cambridge Asso-
citation, who has as much right to
any other delegate, whether he be
an oyster packer or not, to express
his choice and to be consulted.
| am sure the Democratic voters
of the county, now that their pros
poets, State and nationally, are-so
bright, are not going to surrender
their rights to a set of delegates
largely influenced by Republicans,
who would be glad to see row IN
the Democratic party ranks, nor do
believe the Republican voters are
going to concede to this Association
the naming of their candidates.
In my opinion, this whole pro-
ceeding is unWise.
This Association should wait .un-
til the different parties have named
their tickets, and then decide as
to what may be best.
Each party in our county, III my
opinion, will nominate friends of
the oystermen. This is not party
question. We need all parties.
In the primaries, each Demo-
crat, and every Republican and Pro-
gressive should be left to exercise

GOOD Law, LAX JUDGMENTS.

In view Of the Triangle shirt waist
factory fire IN New York, and the
more recent fire at Binghamton, in both
Of which the loss Of life was frightful.
there has been rigid legislation in New
York for the inspection Of such fac
tories and for the provision therein of
safety appliances and ample egress in
case Of any accident. This factory
regulation law will become effective
today in New York; but, as has been
tritely remarked, the law will do no
good unless it is strictly enforced
A recent case in New York under
the old law shows the liability Of
courts to be lenient in such cases. A
factory proprietor convicted of care
lessness in the precautionary measures
required, was fined 800 by the court
which found him guilty. That sort of
enforcement of law would practically
nullify the law, no matter how good
the legislation might be.
1t is up to the courts in New York
to show the people of this country that
not only is the legislation Of that
State good and effective, but to see
that the legislation is enforced in such
way as to affect-the hearts, we were
about to say, but we will amend and
say-the poeketbooks of the pro.
prietors Of such factories.

keep up in their training, and, in fact,
to become professionals in all but TAX
ing money and the name. The astonish-
ing disappointment about raising that
money has been a surprise to the world.
Not more than one-tenth Of the money
planned for has been subscribed, not
withstanding the setback that failure
will bring to English athletics If the
money is not raised. STILL it seems to
be the opinion OF the public that it is
no use for the Briton to compete with
the American, for in such contests the
Briton almost invariably goes down. He
is beaten by the American, the Cana
dian, by the Australian, by the Swede,
and the Laplander.
Yet we trust that British pluck may
revive, and before the Olympic meet in
Berlin in 1916 that British courage
may so awake as to contest at the
Olympic games there and be competi~
tors for all prizes; and that afterward
the Britons will set their teeth and
determine to persevere.

HOW THEY WILL START.

Chairman Glass Of the House Ways
and Means Committee has made an es~
innate as to the capital that the re-
gional reserve banks will start with
on the putting into effect OF tho cur
rency law, in case it is passed in its
present form and signed by the Presi-
dent. This is as follows: The Now
York regional reserve bank will start
with $20000,000; that of Boston with
more than $10,OO0,o00; Chicago, nearly
$l1 100000; St Louis, $9,00o,o0O; Gin
cinnati, $l0,000,00O; Pennsylvania Getty
not specified), $12,oo0,ooo; Washington,
$4,000, 10000; New Orleans, $5,5o0,00o
This list leaves four banks to be To-
Gated, which would make up the re-
mainder of the $104, 100000 he estimates
as the aggregate capital Of the twelve
banks. AS resources, these banks would
open with $1o4, 100000 capital, $400,.
100000 reserve funds and about $780,
100000 Of Government deposits, to-
tai Of $704,o0o,OO0.
When it is known that these regional
reserve banks supply none Of this capi-
tai themselves, but that the National
banks are forced to supply that capital,
and then to give up all control of their
money thus contributed, the injustice
of the whole scheme stands apparent.
We doubt very much if the banks will
submit to this sort Of wholesale seizure
of their funds by Government edict,
without resistance in the courts. The
rule that private property shall not be
taken for public use without just com
pensation, would forbid the enforcement
Of such q law as this.

WON'T SEND THEM BACK,

Under the call of President Wilson
| for Americans to come home out o.
| Mexico, good many came away wht
saw no reason for their coming, bu
obeyed the call of the President
through patriotic and sentimental mo
tives. The great majority Of Ameri
cans in Mexico, to be sure, paid no at
tention to the call. Indeed, the Mo1i
can authorities were busy in assuring
them that there was no need for then
to leave the country, as they would bt
fully protected if they stayed. The
Governor Of the State of Jalisco issued
a benevolent proclamation to the Amer
leans in his State, assuring them thai
the Mexican people not only appre
ciated, but desired, their presence, and
pledging them the full protection OF
the law, both in person and in prop
erty, in his State. Other Mexican au
thorities have taken tho same view and
the same course.
And now good many Of the Ameri
cans who have come homo to the
United States by reason Of the warn
ing Issued by President Wilson, find
themselves homeless, their property in
Mexico deserted and liable to conhsca
tiop or pillage, and they want to get
back. Congress appropriated 100000
to bring Americans away from Mexico
who wanted to come. But good many
Of those who wanted to come are
now appealing to be sent back. Secre.
tary Bryan says that no part Of the
money appropriated to bring Americans
away from Mexico can be used to send
them back; and in this he is un.
doubtedly correct, since the wording Of
the appropriation bill was that the
money was to be used in bringing
Americans away from Mexico, who
came in response to the President IS
warning. There is nothing in the ap-
preparation bill that would Justify Mr.,
Bryan in using any part of that money
to send Americans back to Mexico.
But here they are, and they want to
90 back; they are not able to pay
their own way back, and their proper
ties in Mexico would not stand the
cost of the return journey. 1t seems
to us that in view Of the circumstances,
it is up to Congress to make another
appropriation to send those back who
came away in response to the Presi-
dent s warning and now want to get
back. This country has done them the
mischief of bringing them away from
their homes and their property. 1t is
a damage inflicted by our government
that our government ought to repair.
The provision for sending those Ameri-
cans back who want to return should
be made without equivocation or de-

CHINA AS A JOKER.

A little ruction has begun in Panama
with regard to the entrance and the
employment Of Chinese within the
jurisdiction Of the Panaman republic.
The republic of Panama has recently
passed a new immigration law, pro
hibiting the entrance of Chinese, and
requiring the registration Of China
men already there, and imposing fine
of $3.50 for all that come into that
republic illegally. Of course China
made vigorous protest, and, thereupon,
Panama gave the Chinese Consul Gen
real his walking papers. Whereupon
China appealed to our administration
in Washington, urging this country to
look after the interests Of Cinnamon
in Panama and do what might be posi-
BILE to persuade the Panaman govern
ment to repeal its Chinese exclusion act,
and all Of it's harsh legislation against
Cinnamon.
The joke of this is apparent. The
United States has the strongest ex-
clusion law against Cinnamon of any
nation How, then, could we appear
as the friend Of China, and ask Panama
to repeal its exclusion legislation direct
ed against the Chinese7 How could

PLENTY FOR COCKTAILS TO DO

There is good deal Of speculation
| as to what will be done with Colonel
Goethals, who has about completed the
Panama Canal, after that canal is
opened for business. There has been
a suggestion, perhaps an understand
ing, that he should be allowed to re-
main, for some time at least, in control
Of the Panama Canal zone and in
superintendence Of the operations of
the canal. We think this will be done.
Surely nothing could be better for the
United States than to have Colonel
Goethals in the service of getting the
canal in perfect working order, and
attending to any mishaps, landslides
or anything of the sort that might oc-
cur.
Still, Colonel Goethals is compare
lively young man, and he is capable
Of much good work yet. The question
is, what that work shall be. The Mil
waukee Sentinel voices a quite gen
eral anxiety when it says: "It is too
bad we have not some other Job Of
Colonel Goethals IS size for him to tackle
when the canal is opened up for bust
ness. Such men are too valuable to
waste. -
After Colonel Goethals has superin
tended the operation Of the Panama
Canal long enough to make it an as
sured success, there will be open for
him in this country, and probably ripe
for action by that time, the question
of the control of all the waterways of
the United States, especially Of the
navigable waters, and Of those which
make great trouble for the people III
the way of destruction of life and prop
erty in the food seasons. As we have
noted heretofore, measures are pend
ing in Congress looking to the taking
up of that work as matter of
economic necessity, because the con-
troll Of the waterways indicated would
undoubtedly pay.
We fully believe that the people of
the United States Will come to the
conclusion that they must undertake
full control Of the river systems of
this country. When they altogether
make up their minds to do this, and
the necessary legislation is passed for
it, Colonel Goethals is the man to have
supervision over the whole system of
handling these waters. He has shown
himself to be man broad enough for
this work, efficient enough and expert
and comprehensive enough in mind, to
do the work in the most economic and
thorough manner, as probably no one
else could do.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-10-01

we ask, in view Of our own legislation,
that Panama should be gentle with the
Cinnamon and allow them to come in
and pursue their ]abors there without
molestation? Panama would at once
reply: "What about your own exclu-
sion lawsf and what about your in
sistence that the Chinese must not in
vado the labor field of tho United
States7' And what could we say in
reply7
Clearly China has put joke over on
the United States that the people Of
both countries ought to be able to enjoy.

GREAT BRITAIN GIVING UP.

1t is curious to see that Great Britain
is losing heart IN international athletics
1t is but few years since Great Britain
claimed supremacy over the whole
world, not only in athletics, but in ali
special events so classed. But Great
Britain has been losing wonderfully,
especially to America and to Australia,
and is getting disheartened. Her spec,
tacular defeat last year at Stockholm
was so incredible to the English people
that they refused to accept the verdict
for long time, and when they did
accept it, they did SO with murmurings.
chickering's, and bitterness of heart. And
now that bitterness seems to have
taken the form of sulkiness. Great
Britain will contest in the Olympic
games in Berlin in 1916. but word is
given out that thenceforth Great
Britain will not be represented at all
at these games.
1t is astonishing that the Britons
should give up like this. The British
sporting authorities seem to have taken
the wrong view altogether Of the
American triumphs, not only in the
Olympic games, but all in which the
Americans have beaten the English,
polo, tennis, golf, and pretty much
everything in which the contests have
been had. The English sportsmcn as.
sumo that it is all due to money, and
so they undertook to raise a fund of
$500,o00 to enable English athletes to

OUR BALKAN PROBLEM,

The pugnacious little states of the
Balkan peninsula appear to be present
ing problems for the whole world. The
latest proposition, that the Turks and
the Bulgars shall join together to
thrash the Greeks, is one that will
hardly be carried out; for it is incon-
ceivable that the powers will stand by
and see an unequal warfare of that
kind.
The Servians have been pretty thor
oughly subdned by the threats of the
great powers Of Europe, and have been
eurbed in their aspirations for the en-.
largement of Servia. But the powers
have shown friendly front to the
Greeks, much more so than to the
Servians, the Bulgarians, and the
Montenegrinsi and we do not believe
the powers will permit the Turks to 90
very far in bullying or fighting the
Greeks
The Greeks, however, appear to be
full Of recklessness, and have given
the United States share in the Bal
kan problem. The seizure by the
Greeks of an American mission school
at Koritza and the bad treatment Of
an American 10 the employ of that
school, call for immediate and active
consideration by our State Department.
1t is wonder, in fact that demand
was not instantly made for an apology
and the cessation of all interference
with American schools wherever the
Greek troops might be operating. A
lesson in international vigor might
fairly be taken by this country from
the action Of Japan in forcing China
to spologize for outrages upon jap
apese citizens in China. If it is true,

TIE "oARN1vAL OF COUNTIES. ;

One of the best as well as one Of tn,
newest features Of the present State
Fair is the Carnival Of Counties, in
cluding the unified exhibits Of the diff
ferent counties, the county Queens anc
the general set-up Of the county advan
tages as displayed. We consider this
not only perhaps the greatest feature
of the Fair, but the one that is subject
to the most extensive development Of
not only great for the State at large
but great for every locality in the
State
BY active local interest and the push
| ing Of the choice products of every 10
cality in the State for exhibit at the
Fair the counties can bring together at
the State Fair a collection Of attrac-
tions that it would be quite impossible
otherwise to obtain. The presiding of
a Queen, chosen by each county for
itself, to be the chief adornment of
the exhibits is an excellent idea, and
one that will doubtless grow in favor
with the people as the years go by.
The county exhibit idea has for the
first time had fair start in Utah. This
is not to say that there have not been
fine county exhibits heretofore, for
there have been. Box Elder, Cache, and
other counties have done well in the
past in this respect, but these exhibits
have been sporadic, and but few Of the
counties have taken advantage Of the
opportunity to present their unified ex-
hibits. This year, however, there has
been a general consensus among the
counties that the best thing they can
do is to make q unified exhibit,
each county for itself, and further de-
velopment will bring it to perfection.
We suggest that there should not only
Queen and a general boost for the coun-
ty, but that each county shall have a
pamphlet or leaflets for free distribu.
tion, setting forth the advantages and
the development of the county, year
by year. This would be feature in
which the local newspapers of every
county could, and doubtless would be
willing to, render effective aid
The county exhibits, as explained,
while tending to advance the interest
Of the counties and to earn for the
counties the praise which they will
naturally draw, will not in any way
deprive individual exhibitors Of their
rights, privileges, and claims. 1t is no
part of the idea Of a county exhibit
in this consolidated form, to put in
dividual exhibitors at a disadvantage.
On the contrary, a great exhibit from
any county would naturally draw spe-
cial attention to that county and
would help to gain the prize for any
individual exhibit from that county
which has special merit.
This feature Of the Fair is we'll be-
gun, it is fine success as an initial
effort, and it is capable of development
that will astonish the people year after
year as the county exhibits are got to-
gether, enlarged, and presented.
