caster, who spoke for the Northwest Citi-
zens' Suburban Association, and who pre-
sented a resolution from his association.
Mr. Lancaster said the lights should
not be taken away without the approval
of Congress He based his assertion on
the statement that Congress had ap-
propriated money for the lights and that
Congress- only should take them away.
1--WE don't propose TO pay taxes and
have the money frittered away in other
things than those which we need. Why
do you reflect in this way upon the wis
dom of the forIner board of Commission

this proposition: If you have TO save

Weller Contests Legality.

NJ. I. Weller doubted the legality of The
action of the Commissioners. Ee said
the Commissioners asked for SoSS.000 for
lighting and Congress gave what was
asked without question. He did not be-
Iieve that Congress intend d that the
commissioners should cut off light when
il had given every cent asked for under
the supposition that light would be con-
tinued and not discontinued.
He said i: would be wise for the Com
missioners to rescind their action and
submit the whole matter TO Congress.
That body. he felt sure. would increase
its appropriation SO that lights could re-
main on the country roads.
G. M. Emmons, representing the suit

of many useless lights in the city that

Il maintain. too. that simply because
farmers come to the city limits in dark

prived of the lights they have heretofore

uce into Washington every week. They

Advocates Business Methods.

One of the interesting speeches in yes
terday's session of the congress was that
of w. ID. Simmons. president of the Sim
mons Hardware Company of st. Louis,
who spoke of the need of business meth
DDS in conservation. The general mass OF
the people of the country. he said; do not
understand what is meant by conserva-
ton, and should be educated on the sub
ject. He based this conclusion, he said.
upon the reports made to his firm by its
large force of travelling statesmen. The
majority of Americans" said Mr.. Sim
mons, 'have not yet grasped the idea that
one of the prime objects of the conserva-
ton movement is to preserve the fertility
and productivity of the soil.
Conservation does not aim to suspend
use. Its object is to perpetuate useful
ness in full measure this year and every
year TO come.
1t is not generally known that instead
OF wishing to keep settlers out of the
national forest reservations. inducements
are given. by the department to get people
to settle within their boundaries.
1T is not generally understood that
making a forest reservation does not
mean that no more timber is TO be cut
there for market: on the contrary, its
prime object Is TO insure continued cut
ting and selling for all time.

Roosevelt's Name Eliminated.

The big fight of the committees meet
ing concerned the mention Of the name
Of Theodore Roosevelt as the originator
of the policies recommended by the
committee and ignoring that of Presi-
dent Taft.
The sessions of the committee were ex-
ecutiye but reports of the warfare leaked
out in part. Violent speeches were made
contending that the policies advocated by
the congress not only were those of Mr..
Roosevelt but those of President Taft,
and that the name of the latter should be
specifically mentioned, like that OF Roose-
welt.
This fight occurred during the afternoon.
when there were but eighteen members of
the committee present. under the chair
manship of former Gov. Pardee of Cali
fornia. The vote to include the name of
President Taft was lost. to 10.
An attempt was then made to eliminate
what was said to be an injustice to the
President. and after three ballots a mo-
ton to eliminate the name of Mr.. Roose-
welt also carried.

Fight Did Not MaterialiZe.

A threatened fight on the part OF state
conservation commissioners TO place
the name Of President Taft in the plat
form along with that Of Theodore
Roosevelt as the great friend of con-
servation did not materialize on the
floor. Under vigorous use of the Savel,
il did not even get started.
The fight for the insertion or the
name of President Taft started orlgi-
naIly at meeting of state conservation
commissioners. At this meeting Henry
Hardtner of Louisiana declared that
the conservation principles favored by
the convention were no more those OF
Roosevelt than of Taft. He asserted
with much heat that the congress was
much less a conservation congress than
a straieht political meeting, the tend
ency of which seemed to be TO exalt
Mr.. Roosevelt at the expense of Presi-
dent Taft
The state commissioners thereupon
voted to demand that Tafts name be
mentioned the same as that or ms
predecessor When this was not done, IL
was declared that the fight would be
carried TO the convention at the night
session.
