The National Conservation Asso-
citation is not in politics. 1t believes
that conservation is great moral is
sue, broader than any party or sec
tion, and more vital than any political
question or measure before us. This
association will be on the firing line
in the conservation fight" This is
straight talk, and coming from Mr..
Clifford Pinchot, who has just been
elected president of the conservation
association, it carries weight. Mr.
Pinchot may prove of greater service
to the nation in his capacity as pri
vate citizen than when tied about with
the red tape of a government EN-
ploye.

Of Sl,266,OO0 a year, while the Missouri
University has to get along on $G2a.0OO
That shows how far Missouri IS be-
hind Minnesota. But it is also behind
Wisconsin and Kansas.
Doctor Hill prefers to remain in
Missouri and build up our institution
That is very nice of him. But to
achieve this end he must have pub
lie sympathy and cooperation. The
handicap of poverty must be removed
from the university if it shall thrive
and attain a place among similar in
stitutions in other states. The pro-
gressive spirit that is taking hold OF
education as we'll as toward develop
ment in other directions. States are
Judged by their schools as well as b!
their natural resources and productive

the state university to be undereStl-
mated. If public sentiment is right,
the legislature Will not withhold the
proper support. 1t is hoped that this
incident may cause an awakening that
will bring results
The Kansas City Star published this
editorial last Saturday:
Every patriotic citizen of Missouri
has a right to boast of those things
that give the state an enviable distinc-
ton, and Missouri has much to inspire
rational pride. But when everything
is summed up, Missouris greatest dis
tinction lies in its enormous possl-
bilities rather than its great develop
ment or accomplishments.
Right at this time three great and
closely interdependent movements are
on for the greater development of Mis-
souri, One is to encourage immigra-
ton, to the end that the unutilized
parts of the state. more especially the
Ozark region, may be made produc-
tive. Another is that the yield per
acre, whether in grain, fruit, live stock
or dairy products, may be increased.
The third is that the state university
| nay be so generously supported, in all
| its departments, but especially as tC
! its agricultural college, as TO make It
ore of the very greatest institutions OF
earning in the country and to furnish
I with faculties for the most advanced
ethocs for increasing the productiv"-
aess OF the soil.
AS Governor EaGlay points out.
N;ssouri's difficulty in holding educa-
ors who become strongly Identified
vith the university is net so much .
| matter OF salaries-aithOugh the sa,
l. les Should be largor-as a matter o.
a.uipmeLt and funds to extend and
i axe praC ii, al tie vital education OF
he institution.
This puts the prob'em up to tle
people. Larger revenUa IL tst be sup,
n!!ed. Missouri must get away from
the idea that low tavas or small stat 3
debts are thirgs to boast Of. Large
revenues and intelligent investment
i revenues in expeTim entail husbandry
ire thrgs to boast Of, for they aic
the finest possible investments thai
q state can make. Tie beauty of it is
that such Investments benefit every
body in the state, although the greater
beneticiaries are those W:o devote
themselves to the soil.
Missouri pride has been somewhat
'risticected in times past by false
economists. The spirit OF enterprise
1annot reach far unless it IS sustained
by q generous policy"

will convince the poetry student thai
it is faultless. Rhythm and rhyme are

TAFT AIRS VIEWS

time to tell that he had urged Gov
ernor Hughes to accept renomina-
ton and carry the state, and Secre-
tary Knox had time to take by no
means gentle fling at the news
papers. All in all the travelling
statesmen had merry, merry time.
A formal breakfast at the Ansley
Wilcox home. where President
Roosevelt took the oath of office
after the death of Mckinley, an au-
tomobile ride about town, a recep-
tion to 1900 members of the cham
her OF commerce. luncheon at the
Buffalo club, followed by a recep-
ton. another reception to Yale
alumni at the University club and
trip through the state cancer labor
atory were a few of the things that
kept Taft and KnoX busy.
The president declared he had
urged Hughes to run again when he
sandwichcd into his crowded pro-
gram an impromptu interview with
newspaper men. He said the gov
crnor, however. had made up his
mind not to run, and it was impos-
siblc to alter his determination.
ABOUT HUGHES MENT
When the president discovered
this he offered Hughes the supreme
court justiceship. The presidents
attitude was taken to mean that he
d!strustcd the political situation in
New York and that he believed
Hughes would have been able to
swing the state.
Several conferences between
local politicians and the president
are understood to have taken place
during the day, with a view to
swinging the Erie county Legislators
into line for the income tax amend
ment at Albany.
The AID club luncheon appeared a
queer political love feast On one
side of the table sat President Taft
and Secretary Knox. Opposite
shone the ruddy countenance of
"Fngy" Connors and the nous
tachcd visage of Norman Il. Mack,
democratic national chairman. All
four Joined in the score of topical
songs with which the Ad club
amused the guests. and all talked
across the table in most friendly
way. At the close of the luncheon
the president made an informal adj
dress. in which he touched on the
second class mail problem.

There is a promise that the third
annual outing Of the Spokane
County Veterans association, to be
held July 20, Fl and 22, will be one
Of the greatest events ever given
by this organization. The associa-
ton is composed Of two posts Of the
Grand Army and the camp of the
Spanish War Veterans.
The veterans, at meeting held
yesterday afternoon, concluded to
hold the annual camp this year on
Judge J. Y. Moore's land this side of
Fort Wright, convenient to the
bank of the river and at the same
time handy for the fort street car
line. The boys of '61-65 will go into
camp for themselves, the Spanish
War Veterans will do likewise and
it is probable that a detail of the
regulars will pitch camp after the
manner of the army of today.
Military tactics Of the different
periods, in the matter of mess,
guard duty and other regulations,
will be enforced and the boys will
again live over the soldier life of
the front. Some of the vets that
passed through the troublous days
of '61-65 are planning foraging ex-
petition, in which event it may be
well for all citizens with fowls or
live stock to keep their property I'M
der lock and key.
There will be program for each
night and every effort made to
make the outing the greatest event
of its kind ever given. Civilians
will be welcome at all times, and If
they are right clever may be invited
to mess of beans and hard tack.
