HOLSTERS AND AUTOMOBILES.

Those who have high hopes that the coming conference of New Eng land governors will accomplish much for the bettermcnt of this northeast ern section of the country cannot but be pleased that tho announcement of that conference is being met with con siderable interest the country over, Even where comment Is made in Q facet lus vein, is this the case. The Detroit Free Press, for example. con- fesses to an inclination to believe New England has few natural resources left to it worthy of conservation or development. It says it has believed this sections chief resources consisted of the opportunity of doing the summer visitors and that there was little chance for further development in that direction, One resource, it admits, New England has It Is the lobster. If the six governors 1t says, Twill take steps to multiply the deeadent crustacean and ship supplies of 1t put into the western country a brighter and better day will dawn for us. Give us more lobsters, dear old New England. and we will lot you do as you wish with your visitors
 But behind the witticisms there are few solemn facts. worthy of serious consideration. New England's re- sources have not been suitably i'm pressed upon the country and the world for some time past, Outsiders have been only too much accustomed to thinking of this section of the country as having grand old past but very little of present or future as far as manufacturing or productive interests are concerned. It should be the highest concern of the members of the coming governors conference to take such steps as will insure q radical and immediate change in the attitude of outsiders toward us, As

for the Holsters, tho particular matter which the Free Press takes occasion to center it's little wlttelsm around that "decadent crustacean," as 1t is called. is 10 be one of the subjects which those at the conference will have before 1t for consideration. It's members will do well to bear in mind the little hungry cry of the lobster lovers of Detroit and elsewhere. Twill mean money in New England coffers. In the past there has been more or less confusion as between the several New England states in their statutory regulations of the cultivation and pro- tectIon of shellnsh, Holsters among them Ii is of the utmost value that every means be had to make this New England Industry productive and thriving one.
 Another matter to be discussed at the conference is worthy of separate treatment. IL Is the regulation of au- tomoblle traffic The last few years | have seen New England come to be one of the most popular. if not the most popular, sections of the country | for automobillng The automobilist leaves considerable money behind him upon his dusty, flying trips For that ' reason his coming Is not wholly un- 1 welcome But, on the other hand he has his undesirable clements His whlrling rubber wheels destroy good roads by flaming the top layers of dust and stone into the adjacent < fields and exposing the foundations of ! the macadam Then too as with most sports. the reckless are sure to be found who do not hesitate to en- danger lives for the sake of making a speed record. On the New York-to- ] bpHlNl ilHt NIlNu lS pl'bublN lut most popular, 1t would bc higoly ad- vantageous if tho automobllist should
 find himself confronted with uniform automobile Legislation In every state he visits It is for the members of the conference to decide what those regulations shall be and it will be en- cumbent upon them later to use their best efforts to have the latter regula- tions incorporated in the law by their several legislatures
 The conference is to be unique meeting in the history of New Eng
 land, and there is good reason to be- lieve that It will prove but the begin ming of permanent organization which will meet periodically to con sder the best interests of this section

BRYCE TO NUTMEG SKATERS.

Had he specifically tried to do so, Ambassador James Bryce could not nave chosen more appropriate sub jcct for a lecture at the present time in the state of Connecticut than he did at Lampson hall on Thursday evening when he took for his subject "Indolence as Hndrance 10 Good Citizenship" Few men living to-day are better fitted to give us Americans better sermons and admonitions upon the subject of good citizenship than Is Mir. Bryce. He has made such care ful study oc American conditions that hls writings on our political lnstltu- tlons arc used as text books in our colleges, in spite of the fact that he Is an EnglIshman. The latter fact, combined with his knowledge of the situation, has given him just that un- prejudiced perspective so needed by those Who would point out the way 10 political reform,
 When MT Bryce chides us for frc- quent failure to study and appreciate the exact issues in question when we vote, It may be taken for granted that he has good reason for doing so. In his lecture he urged the great respon- sibilIty there is in voting, responsl- biitr which should far outweigh for the moment every business or social interest. His admonitions could not be better applied than to-day in Con- necticut in connection with the pres cnt fight for the goyernorship Prob ably nothing could please MT. Bryce, as q well Wishcr of this country as a while and in each of It's constituent parts. m the encouraging way in which all Connecticut is to-day aris- ing to the state political situation. mere Hte great lSSucS Ht Sldhct Vuts- tons of moral integrity, In comparison with which even the most pressing state political issues fade into nsig- niAcancc.
 Mir. Bryce's best advice. as disin- terested outsider, would undoubtedly be: Citizens of Connecticut, do your duty as citizens of your state this fall examine the testimony for and against your gubernatoria candidates careful ly, and then vote accordingly without fear or favor of any man The evil dence Is before the state, with more coming in every day If the citizens of Connecticut care one way or the other what the caliber Of the man is they want for their highest office The Journal-Courier has no question as to the result.

Had He Tried He Could Not Have Spoken More Appro- prately to Connecticut Citizens in View of the
 GubernatoraI Contest

The fault lies in our not caring enough for our country It is easy to flag to cheer an eminent statesman to exult in achievement by land or sea But imagnations too dull to realize either the grandeur of the state in it's splendid opportunities for promoting the welfare of the masses, the fact that the nobility of the state lies in it's being the true child the true exponent, of the enlightened will of law abiding, right minded people Absorbed in business or pleasure, think little of what membership in free nation means The eloquent voice of patriotic reformer sometimes breaks slumber But the daily round of business pleasure again fills the mind and public duty fades into the background of life.
