CONFERENCE OF THE GOVERNORS.

President Rooseves plan of conference Washington the Governors of all the states with the national executive and
 small number of the leaders in great movements is big with possibilities of public good Such body capable of consd eri2 estCns of policy and government with of independence of judgment not possible to Congress- and its
 usons should be of great value in guiding the action of nation and state legislatures and in harmonzg the policies of the states
 Being purely advisory and having to egsae the conference should be comparatively free from the control party politicians it's deliberations should be influenced
 slightly if at a by considerations of the effect of it's actions the political fortunes of it's members It dispense patron grind promote schemes and cannot be called account by organization machines for it's expressions of Op ion.
 If President Roosevelt to nfuse the body of the spirit of reborn Amercanism of his odfash toned patriotism and civic morality, the conference be potent factor in the political reformation of the Republic
 In theory the Senates function is in identical with that of conference of the states which senators presumed represent In practice seldom represent their states seek to hamonze the policies of the component parts of the non They usually the special interests which dom mate the party machines and their influence in state affairs b confined to distributing Federal jobs.
 If the in conference half big and broad they should be- they will consider not what the several states want but what possible for them do for the good of the country and the people whole And when they will what influence they have in persuadng their eg aures to do what ought to be done to give the moral awaken ing of the American people the force and effect of political lution in the direction of rational government.

Popular science" of the sort exploited by space-flling wri- ters for newspaper Sunday SUD- plements, reaches the limit of the marvellous in the reported discovery by a county candy maker in Ohio of a process of converting skim-milk into a fire-proof, bullet-proof, acid proof, pon-conducting, incom- pressible, plastic, impervious, non-pulverizable, easily fooled substance. The inventor pro- poses to plate battleship with skim milk. It seems also to be useful as filling for fool news papers.

A learned professor from Poland, with bulging brow, strong spectacles and a firm conviction that nobody but a German or a Pole knows any thing, calmly informs America that it is ignorant, illiterate, destitute of knowledge and in- capable of thought, and needs a thrashing. As the professors observations of America have been made in Chicago, he may be excusable for some part of his outbreak.

MITCHELL, s. D.. Aug. 9.-After II
was supposed that the Charles Mix county
seat fight was ended by the county COM
missioners accepting the petition Of Geddes
and placing that town on the ballot as
the legislative candidate against Wheeler,
the present location, Lake Andes people
have shown with a protest against
Geddes going on the ballot. To prove
their good intentions in the situation the
Lake Andes people offer to forfeit $500 to
the commissioner II they cannot show
more legal and bona fide voters or their
petition than was exhibited on that OF the
Geddes petition. The Lake Andes contin-
gent are going TO insist on a recount OF the
names on the petition. and in that they
are confident thai they can make good
their word. The indications point to a
reopening Of the fight which has been
waged for the past three or four years
and with the result that the county seat
will remain at Wheeler, the most accessi-
BILE town in the county.
