WANTS GOVERNORS TO
HOLD ANNUAL CONFAB
JAMES ]. HILL IND0RES RE-
CENT CONFERENCE
Declares II Time to Set the National
House In Order and That Saliva
ton Lies in Getting
Back to Soil
Ely Associated Press.

Ely Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 20.-That the re-
cent conference of governors was
good thing, and should be MADE an
annual event, is the opinion or James
]. Hill, president of the board or al
rectors of the Great Northern ran
road, who was a special guest invited
by President Roosevelt to ADDRESS the
meeting at Washington.
1.-THE idea behind that conference"
Hill said, sis a big thing. There are
persons, no doubt, who feel inclined
to treat it cynically, but they are
wrong. Everything must have be-
ginning, and it is easy enough TO De
cynical. In an annual convention OF
governors see an institution that can
be nurtured and built into one of the
great forces of the nation.
Neither the first nor the second
meeting, nor the third nor the fourth
will show results which the public
mind will be able to grasp. but should
say that after the expiration of the
formative period big things will be
realized If, as it is generally said,
this nation has received a pause which
should occasion the gravest apprehen-
sion, 1t is about time we Logan to put
our house In order. I do not know of
a better way to go at it than through
the permanent establishment of an
annual gubernatorial conference or
convention.
''But I want to say right here that
1 believe Washington should never be
selected as the place for another meet
ing of the kind. The atmosphere of
the capital is essentially political. You
must keep politics out of this institu-
ton. I think a city like Springfield,
ILL.,, would be an ideal place Then
there are the large university and col
lege towns. The place chosen should
be where big agricultural experiments
are being carried on. There you have
object lessons to hand-lessons which
are essential-for our redemption Is to
come from the soil and in no other
way.
at is all very we'll to hold conven-
lions and prepare papers and talk, but
we might as well stay at nome II our
papers, our talk and our purposes
mean nothing.
"At the recent conference takers
were limited to twenty minutes, and,
to illustrate what have just said,
want to mention the case OF man
from Chicago who got up and used hf-
teen minutes of his time telling us That
If the world kept going AROUND as II
has been doing for so long at the end
of 10000 years it VIII nave snrunk
foot through erosion.
what 1 hope to see is the people
looking ahead and planning for
couple of generations. That will be
far enough to get them into the habit
of thinking, and those who come after
will inherit the ideas and understand
the purposes of conservation, and carry
them along for their allotted time. We
must go back to the land. There is no
other way for US"

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK. May 20--The violent and
feverish action of today's stock market
served to confuse greatly the views OF the
speculative element and In consequence
served to intimidate the less powerful class
OF operators. who prices moving In
mereuriai fashion, apparently at the will of
hidden forces. That operators of powerful
resources were using violent manipulative
measures to effect the wide and sudden fluc-
tuations In prices was patent even to super
nciai observers.
The early part Of the day was given over
TO a laborious repair process of the inroads
on prices effected yesterday and early to-
day. The sensational advance IN Missouri
Pacific and the response by sympathy of
the whole Gould group was the effective
medium for supporting prices during the
slump toward a rally. Mysterious illusions
TO new alliances for the Gould railroad en-
terprises, involving financial support from
the wealthiest individual American capitalist.
made up the motive power of this movement.
Efforts 70 secure authentic confirmation or
denial of these rumors we're fruitless and
the news to account for the break in prices
was of q similarly shadowy kind. Last
prices were generally below those of last
night. but the closing tone was strong and
at substantial recoveries' from the lowest
prices of the day.
Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value.

VICTORIA, B. c., May 20.-The r. M.
S. Empress of Japan, which is due from
the Orient next Sunday, and the steam
ship Empress of China, which leaves
Hongkong on June A. and Is due here
June Fl, will be the last of the Canadian
Pacific steamers carrying the oversee
mails between Hongkong and London

time has been extended under the new

thirty-four days. By the terms of the
new contract the Empress steamers ara
no longer amenable for service as aux
iliary cruisers. the payment included in
the former subsidy having been cut
out under the new arrangement.
1t is questionable whether the White
liners will be entitled to fly the blue

THE IDAHO SCIMITAR.

AS long as the public feels that it has reason to
believe that an officer of the government has been
removed from office for performing his duty without
fear or favor, in compliance with the specific in
structons of his superior officials it will not believe
that the administration is sincere in its prosecution OF
corporation representatives charged with violation OF
the laws.
