How Woman Chooses.

Only the callow youth and the
seedy poet think that man proposes
and woman disposes. Men of expe-
rience know that the gentle sex
does both. All that man is good
for is to be a target for woman to
shoot at, and most of us if we do
say it as shouldn't make mighty

The Gathering of Governors.

1t is believed that, barring I'M
avoidable circumstances, the gov
ernors of all the forty-six sovereign
States in this Union viii accept the
invitation of President Roosevelt to
gather at the White House some
three weeks hence.
Primarily, the President has in
mind promoting the movement for
conservation of natural resources;
but it is recognized that such re-
markable gathering is likely to
make it's own program and decide
its own destiny.
Not only because there has been
no other like it, but also because of
the auspices under which the gath
ering is held and the state of public
opinion at the time, this meeting is
likely to become historic. Con-
servation of natural resources is
likely to divide honors with preser-
walton of constitutional rights. In
the face of the repeated decisions
by the Supreme Court in the last
few months, which point 10 the
obliteration of essential sovereign
powers in the States, il is hardly
conceivable that a gathering of gov
errors viii fail to express vigorous
and pointed protest against this
tendency. More important than
mere protest would be Inaugural
ton of some practicable means for
compelling consideration, in its
largest aspects, of the relations of
the States and the Federal Govern
men5.
1t has long been clear that
changes in the fundamental law
viii not be made until they are
made on the initiation of the States.
The Constitution provides two ways
of amendment: one, on the initia-
ton of Congress; the other at the
instance of the States. By the for
mer method, there has been no
amendment since the civil war era;
and it seems not too emphatic TO
saw that short Of great national
crisis, that method VIII not again
produce a change.
The States have never yet in
itiated a constitutional convention
Various efforts have been made TO
induce them 10 do II. but the ma
chinery is so complex and difficult
that it has always been impossible.
Because the coming gathering
of State executives may become the
starting point for an organization
for consideration and conservation
of the balance of powers in this
Government, it IS likely to prove
most significant.
Perhaps the time is not here for a
constitutional convention; but GER
tainly the time is ripe for determine
ton if there can ever be a constitu-
tionaI convention; if the Constitu-
ton, drawn by very wise men, but
in a day when the railroad, the
steamboat, the telegraph, the mod
ern newspaper press, the factory
system of production, the world
neighborhood, were undreamt off
that Constitution is unchanging and
Interchangeable save by the uncertain
and dangerous processes of inter
probation.
The men who wrote that instru-
ment were wise enough to realize
that changes would be needed; too
many of their successors are unwill-
ing 10 admit it. At least the ma
ton is entitled TO know whether
the Constitution is hereafter TO be
resigned to the slow process of de-
velopment by Interpretation, or to
be subjected TO the safer process of
scientific consideration, and, when
really needed, amendment.
The convention of governors viii
hardly fail TO think of this problem.
