ST. Paul, Sept 5.-The second Ma

President Baker and Archbishop Ire.
land gave the invocation. Governor
Eberhart welcomed the delegates on
behalf of the state of Minnesota. He
was followed by Mayor Keller, who
welcomed them in behalf of ST. Paul.
Then the delegates heard the speak
er of the day-William Howard Taft,
president of the United States. The
presidents address was followed by
that Of United States Senator Nelson
of Minnesota, the subject of whose ad-
dress was Our Public Land Laws" A
conference of governors attending the
congress and addresses by them com
pleted the days programme. Gov
ernor Eberhart said, in part:
The conservation of natural re-
sources does not consist merely in
the preservation of these resources
for the benefit of future generations,
but rather such present use thereof
as will result in the greatest general
good and yet maintain that productive
power which insures continued future
enjoyment. While it is true that ex-
haustible resources like mineral
wealth cannot be conserved for both
future and present use, except by
economic regulations and the preven-
tion of wasteful methods, conservation
deals with their distribution in such
a way as to prevent their control by
grasping corporations and individuals,
who would monopolize them for their
own exclusive benefit at the expense
of the general public.
1t follows necessarily that any the
ory of conservation which does not
provide for the present as we'll as the
future does not cover the entire field
and cannot possibly bring the best re-
suits. From every economic stand
point 1t is desirable that the present
generation should be preferred, since
future discoveries and inventions may
render present resources of less
value and Importance to the coming
generations.
Scope Of Movement Widened.
In its broadcast sense the conserva-
tion movement is not limited merely
to the consideration of natural re-
sources. Every great convention
called to consider the problems in
volved has widened the scope of the
movement SO that today it includes
the elimination of wasteful methods
In almost every field of human activ-
ity and the conservation Of all human

STATION AT SALT LAKE.

1t is announced from Washington
that nine new rescue stations are to
be established by the newly created
bureau Of mines and mining, and that
one OF these stations will be located
at or near salt Lake. accessible to the
coal fields of Utah. southern Wyoming
and western Colorado"
Naturally Salt Lake is the most
available point for the location OF the
station in this district. If southern
wyoming and western Colorado are to
be reached, as we'll as the Utah coal
fields.
It is noticeable that nothing is said
about the gold. silver and copper
mines in connection with the estab-
lishment of stations. the prevention
OF accidents and the saving of life.
Surely those in charge of the bureau
Of mines and mining are not proceed
ing under the mistaken idea that the
bureau was established for the benefit
Of the coal miners alone.
II is true that most Of the distress
ing accidents occur in the coal mines,
but the miners engaged in bringing
the various metals to the surface
should not be overlooked by the bu-
reau because casualties are less fire.

BRYAN Is BOSS.

When endeavoring to get a line on
the political bosses Mr.. Bryan
should be taken into account. Not
being a candidate for senator from
Nebraska this year. he has undertaken
to force the nomination of Richard
Metcalfe, associate editor OF the Com
mOner. upon the Democrats.
Bryan Is a Democrat only when II
suits his purpose. He voted for
Weaver for President against the
Democratic nominee early in his ca
reer. and has shown Populistic and
SOciaIistic tendencies ever since.
Nevertheless. he has firm grip on
the Democratic party and must al
ways be reckoned with when the un-
terrified think they see a chance to do
some good for themselves I'm a politi-
cal way.
Not long ago the Nebraskan butted
into the affairs of the Ohio Democrats
and attempted to force the nomination
Of a candidate for United states sem
ator by the state convention. and it
required all the influence at the COM
mand of Governor Harmon TO head
off the movement.
Now he has undertaken the task Of
fOisting his hired man upon the Ne
braska Democrats, and great is the
wrath of the old wheel-horses who
had hoped they would be allowed to
choose a candidate for themselves.
The Democrats carried Nebraska
two years ago. being assisted by few

CHINA's REPLY.

The Chinese government has made
the Russo-Japanese treaty. express
ing great satisfaction over the pur-
pose Of the two governments to main
tain the status quo in Manchuria and
to adhere 20 the terms OF the Ports
mouth treaty.
The Celestial statesmen are careful
to expressly mention the promises
previously made regarding the open
door and the recognition Of Chinese
sovereignty in the three provinces now
practically under the rule Of Russia
and Japan.
It is stated in the Pekin dispatch
that the reply was drafted in accord
ance with the policy of the United
States, and that China looks to this
country for backing in its effort to
preserve it's territorial integrity.
Ever since the late Secretary Hay
put into force what has been called
"shirt-sleeve" diplomacy this country
/ has stood between China and the
great nations that would like to par
tition the ancient empire among them
selves BY placing Russia and japan
once more on record, the Chinese
statesmen have materially strength
ened their position. regardless OF thu
attitude Of this country, which we
may assume has not changed since the
time Of Secretary Hay.

large sum of money gave to the labor
ing classes Of other countries.
This is what an abandonment OF the
protective tariff system in the United
states would mean, less employment
for the workingmen Of this country
and decreased wages for those who by
any chance were so fortunate as to
secure an opportunity to labor.

Dor should also be timid when an as

foundations of the prosperity Of the

olitical situation is regarded at the
ational capital:
In the winter seasons when Con
gress is in session Washington
Is supposed to be the fountain
head of politics, but OF late years
since our Presidents have been
seeking relief from the heat and
rest from their labors at some
summer resort the political capi-
tai has had a migratory exist
ence during the summer months.
For seven years It was at oyster
Bay, but last year IL was at Bev-
erly. Mass. and under ordinary
circumstances IL would be To-
Gated at the same place at this
time, for there IL Is the Presi-
and the President is the titular
head Of his party, but from the
way politicians OF all shades Of
opinion have been making their
way to Sycamore Hill one may
feel justified in believing that
the political capital has taken
its departure from the golf links
at Beverly 10 the unpretentiOus
house on the hin at oyster Bay.
From the time Mr.. Roosevelt first
began his public career as
member OF the New York assem-
bly, he has been a continuous
puzzle TO the politicians. and
never more 50 than at the pres
tire Republican party OF the
country is waiting TO see how
the Sycamore cat will jump. The
Republican party IS divided into
two factions. and while not d.
rectly antagonizing the one.
President Taft has openly sup
ported the other. His admins
tratiOn. when looked at with i'm
partial eyes. has been most emil
ncntly successful. He has accom-
plished more for the permanent
welfare OF the country than any
OF his predecessors was able to
do in the same length of time.
There have been written into the
laws a number that will prove
OF the most practical benefit TO
the business interests Of the
country az well as 20 those OF
all the people Men may differ
law, but It must be confessed by
all Of them that Il has been a
revenue producer unexcelled by
any tariff law enacted by Con-
gress. The railroad law and the
postal savings law are both
measures OF vast Importance,
and the law authorizing the
President to do what Mr.. Roose-
welt tried 70 do without law. in
regard 90 Withdrawing lands
from settlement and his recla-
that the President was not only
right but was wise. Temporal
iiv the Republican party may
seek direction from Sycamore
Hill. but Mr. Taft will be the
real head OF his party and the
politicians might as well reach
that conclusion at once.

TIE BRITISH SYSTEM.

Now and then some free trader
belches forth an objection to being
indirectly taxed. as he claims, under
the protective tariff system. over in
England, you know, it is so different.
There they have the income tax and
import taxes on food. the latter levied
on articles not produced at home and
consequently non-competitive.
These import taxes come directly
out of the pockets OF the people. and
labor is impoverished instead Of pro-
tected. The following shows the
arnnnnfs raised ON sfnnle articles.
