acceptance by Sir Wilfrid Laurier,

lpartments which can render particu-
lar assistance to the conferees In
their deliberations, and the National
Conservation Commission.
Canada has already taken active
steps in preparation for the confer
ence and recently sent to the National
Conservation Commission number
of carefully prepared maps which
show the pregent status of the public
lands of the dominion as well as the
distribution of the principal natural
resources and the development of its
transportation systems.
President Roosevelt feels that the
connection between the United States
and the two nations which lie to the
North and South is so intimate that
they can consider their mutual inter.
ests with regard to natural resources
from the standpoint of the general
welfare of the continent with small
regard to the political boundary lines
which separate them. Now that sue
cess is assured he feels that sinca
the two Nations have identical inter-
ests and identical aspirations they
can work together along conservation
lines just as the representatives of
the States work together without re-
gard to State boundaries.

OF 1t. Ignorance of the laws in
many instances works hardship ant
injury upon innocent and we'll mean

and labor of enforcing laws. The
resolution passed by the association:
named should commend itself TO all
legislators. 1t Is as follows:
Whereas. The need of public in.
formation of certain laws has been
frequently noted by the heads Of varl
GUS State departments. especially
the Departments of Health, Dairy
and Food, Fish. Game, Factory In
spection and Education, and
Whereas. The lack of this public
lily has frequently handicapped and
embarrassed these departments in
carrying out their efficient and i'm
portant work. therefore be It
Resolved, That the Pennsylvania
State Editorial Association earnestly
urges tho passage of laws authorizing
the publication of these statutes un-
der the recommendation of the heads
of the various departments believing
that such publicity in proper locali-
ties. of laws of special and general
interest. would insure better en-
forcement OF all the laws referring
to public hygiene sanitation. pure
food, fish and game laws. school leg
islaticn, factory inspection. etc. and
would make it possible for
greater service for the public
good through increased efficiency of
the various State departments by
maximum and intelligent co-opera-
ton on the part of the people
through the education and informa-
tion such publications would afford.

Next. viii be the question with
some, conceding the pipe system
proposed as ample, where is the
supply to come fromg That ques.
tion Is quite easily answered by ref
erence to the report OF the citizens
committee, which was adopted by
the council and approved by the
Board OF Trade. in which two ad-
d!tional dams are recommended and
the present one to be raised higher
and otherwise improved. These threa
dams will hold thousands upon
thousands of gallons OF water. which
would prove storage supply. that
would impress all with the safety
to property and the abundance OF
supply such would afford.
Every man, woman and child Is
interested in the water question. or
ought to be. as so much depends on
an adequate supply at all times.
Much inconvenience arises from lack
of water for domestic use and great
risk to property ensues from NOT
only water famine but also the
absence of an ample supply. Home
demands more water and business
demands it to.
The question is one the people
must decide. The creation of a

the result of amending the city
charter, ought to and doubtless does
overcome objections made by some.
1t may not satisfy some others, who
used that phase of the question as
a mere pretext, but they intended to
vote against 1t any way and it ia
not likely that they have changed or
will change their minds. Let no
public-spirited. enterprising, city
loving man be deceived by them!

Cur,.yin. Knives.

Every now and then cry goes
up from some point in the state
for the enactment of a law con-
corning this or that, no matter
whether there is law for the par
ticular thing or not. In four-fifths
of the cases statutes already cover
the very things for which remedies
are sought. In half of the re-
mainder there are already existing
laws which by slight amendment
could be made to fit the desired
cases, Incessant clamor for new
laws not only confuses and perplexes
the lay mind. but also tends to him
der the spread of information con-
corning existing laws among the
people, who are to obey them. For
instance, this from the Grafton Re
publican:
with the going into effect of the
law against pistol toting are we to
expect the general discardings of the
fire arm for the little less handy
and no less deadly knit? As vet
nothing has been heard regarding
putting bar on the promiscuous
packing of edged tools for which
some already have decided lean
ing"
Now it happens that there is al
ready law upon this very subject.
Section 1888 of the Code of West
Virginia provides that any person
who carries about his person any
revolver or other pistol. dirk, bowie
Knife, razor, slung shot, billy. me-
tallic knckles, or any other danger
Gus or deadly weapon of like kind OF
character. shall be guilty of mis-
demeanor, and fined not less than
$50 nor more than 5000. and may,
at the discretion of the court, be
confined in jail not less than one
nor more than twelve months, and
so forth.
1t may be, however, that the Graf
ton Republican sees where this law
can be extended, or improved. In
order to sift all doubt and confusion
from the evident good intentions OF
the Republican, it should be a lit.
Tie more explicit in the matter.
