concl sion that the states must act,
and that the states and the nation
must cooperate to the end that to the
whole people of the nation may accrue
the lasting benefit of its natural re-
sources. v.
Besides the compilation of facts by
the experts and the freely expressed
opinion of the governors, the confer
ence leaves as its permanent record
thousand words of declaration" Not
declaration of independence" but
declaration of cooperation.
OF the last day the story is one Of
many features. The set program was
swept aside. The president presided
throughout He interjected remarks
and speeches. He brought to the plat
form men who made plain the prevail
ing feeling, that thought and care
must be exercised for the future. The
prepared papers were not presented,
but they will be printed in the per-
manent record.

The disposition TO express freei,
their sentiments was INDUCED in OF
the part Of the governors throughout
the presidents speech, which occu
pied ten minutes short Of an hour
4 He was applauded and cheered many
times and when, after giving prais
ing estimate Of the work Of the inland
waterways commission, he remarked
parenthetically:
THE commission ought to be per
petuated, and II congress does not see
fit to do SO l shall do It myself the
gathering was fairly stampeded by
cheers, applause, shouts and laughter
The session ended at noon when the
president and vice president gave an
informal reception to those who had
attended the meeting. Immediately
afterward he met the governors, mem
bers Of the supreme court and others
, who were his minor guests last night
in the blue drawing room.
1t was at the afternoon session that
the real work Of the conference began.
and the session which opened at 2:45
and lasted until sos o'clock, proceed
ed at a rate that broke all speed regu-
latIons. It developed first that the
president finds 1t impossible to devote
his entire time to the conference meet
ings. He will, as he did Wednesday,
call to order each session, and then
designate governor to preside. This
honor fell Wednesday on Gov. Noel OF
Mississippi, with the intimation from
the president that Thursday he should
call upon Gov. Johnson of Minnesota.
Then, after this announcement, as II
mis- POLITICAL instinct mad received a
shock, the president suddenly called
upon Mr.. Bryan to interrupt the pro.
gram and incidentally the prepared
speech of Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, and
address the meeting. Mr.. Bryan ac'
knowledged the enthusiasm his name
aroused by lifting his hands and then
indicated a desire to speak Friday.
It was from the utterances of Mr..
Carnegie and those who followed him
that the gravity Of the problems to be
considered were given weight. Two
hundred years Of coal supply and half
that Of iron was the prediction Of the
famous ironmaster. These facts, he
bore home with detail, but good ma
turedly limited that he would be dis
puted by my friend, J. ]. HILL"
Gov. johnson Of Minnesota made a
lively talk in which he took issue with
Mr.. Carnegie's statement that waste
full methods prevailed in iron mining
In the Lake Superior region and cheer
fully assured that gentleman that "Mr.
Hill will be glad to take issue with
him on some things" Two problems,
be said, confronted the conference
Dne was the conservation of the ma
tural resources, the other the true de-
velopment Of industry. One, he said,
was as great as the other.
The climax Of the afternoon session
was the speech of Secretary Of State
Elihu Root. Mr.. Root was received |
with great enthusiasm and the re-
marks he made met approval by a
demonstration eQualled only by that
accorded the president on his en-
rance at the morning session.

forestry school Of Yale university,
which he said was graduating between
80 and 40 men trained In agriculture
and forestry each year.
The climax of the morning session
was produced by Gov. Glenn of North
Carolina, who made a vigorous appeal
for action by the conference which
would impel congress to pass at this
session bill providing for the Appa-
lachian and White Mountain forest re-
serves. Gov. Glenn advocated joint
action by states and the nation on
some definite plan for the preservation
Of the forests, conservation Of the wa
tiers and the rehabilitation of the soil
Of the country.
He said he wished to answer the
suggestion Of Speaker Cannon at the
banquet of the governors that the
South try confederation arrange
ment and not ask assistance of the
federal government on the forestry re-
serve question.
1--WE tried a confederation once and
1t did not pay" he said. This remark
brought the convention to its feet.
Hats we're thrown in the air, handker-
chiefs waved and shouts, laughter and
applause mingled.
Following the papers on the after
noon progam, Governor Folk Of Mis-
souri, gave his endorsement to what
Governor Glenn said about congress
sional action. He declared he should
go home ami appoint a forestry COM
mission, and urged all governors to
do likewise, expressing the belief that
the state legislatures would ratify the
action.

Washington, May 15.-Startling wa
| the warnings sounded Thursday at thu
conference Of governors at the Whit
House, of the danger the nation con
fronts in soil waste and forest de
pletion. The governors listened ant
talked and applauded, but took no &C
ton. This is left for Friday, the las
day Of the conference, and plan II
afoot to have the prepared speeches
for that day printed in the record with
out reading In order that the time
may be devoted wholly to results. The
resolutions committee was in session
all day and will report Friday morn
ing. A supplementary meeting OF q
number of governors followed the
days session, and a committee con
sisting of the governors Of Kentucky
Missouri and Nebraska was appointed
to bring in a suggestion for a perma.
nent organization of governors, indie
pendent, perhaps, of any other organi'
cation which may be formed by the
conference. The president opened the
morning and afternoon sessions, which
were thereafter presided over by
Gov. Johnson Of Minnesota and Gov.
Deneen of Illinois, respectively.
James ]. Hill, Of the Great Northern,
who led a long list Of speakers, treat
ed the depletion Of the nations re-
sources in very serious and impress
sive way. He presented conditions re-
specting mineral. soil and forest,
showing wanton waste in each in
stance, and drew a picture Of political
chaos when all were gone, wherein
the people would tear down the very
pillars of government. Mr.. Hill be-
lieved such results could and should be
avoided by prompt action.
Prof Chamberlain Of the University
of Chicago and president Of the Amer

Prof. Chamberlain did not have an

In MISUNDERSTANDING Western
Play Coming.

The most important theatrical
event of the season, is the COM
ing production of Willard Mack S
great American drama of coun-
try life I'm Wyoming" Not
since the days of ''The Virginia"
and way Down East,' has the
stage been offered a play at once
so human, so natural and ire
sistible as this charming western
story. The people of the play
comprise sturdy men of the plains
brisk, alert women of the pioneer
generation, and their dainty, yet
strong and self-reliant daughters,
types of the American girl, over
which the whole world has come
to admire the wonder-fair sam
pies which Mr.. Mack has chosen
to use in the way of literary ma
terial. The rlay pulses with the
vigorous, active life of the young
west. 1t has a love story as ten
der as that of Romeo and Juliet"
and is rich with humor and quaint
philosophy. There is not a shot
fred during the whole perform
ance, although the production is
intensely interesting and exciting
at times.

BOLD ROBBERY
At PEORIA
Store Looted of Cash
and Goods.
THIEVES STOP FOR LUNCH
Safe Was Blown Open and
Rich Haul Secured.-.-No
Trace Was Left.

Sheriff Gellatly received word
h Wednesday morning that the
store at Peoria had been burg
larized; the safe blown open and
robbed of its contents amount
ling to about $500 in cash. They
took about 5000 worth of jewelry
and numerous other articles OF
merchandise, making a rich
haul. The parties seem to have
been hardened criminals, doing
their work so neatly and quietly
that nothing was known of it un-
til the merchant went to open
the store in the morning. From
appearances about the store it
would seem they had deliber-
ately prepared and eaten their
lunch in the store out Of the best
things in sight and it would not
have seemed strange had the
dare-devils called up the good
housewife and demanded a cup
lof hot coffee. Not a trace did
they leave to mar the pleasure Of
their visit or cause the sheriff to
waste his time looking for foot
prints in the mud. They seem
to have a regular circuit outlined
as they commenced at Philo-
math, then at Independence,
Monmouth, Lebanon, Peoria,
and we hope they will never stop
until they land at Salem-in the
pen where they belong. In this
land Of plenty there is no need
Of stealing and the only reason
able excuse to offer is that some
men prefer darkness to light
rather steal than work.
