assurance of square deal-the on j.
ly thing we ask and all we have a
right to expect.
In the light of this proposition
our duty is plain. We must apply
ourselves to enacting legislation that
will enable US to deal with the prob
lens of home conservation. We need
have no fear Of the ability of the
state to do this. 1t has all the pow
er; all that is necessary is to pro-
vide the proper machinery.
1--WE have long had a law on our
statute books that provides for a
royalty of from to 10 per cent. on
all minerals mined on state lands.
The federal government has SO far
been unable to enact such a law.

that is, the great timber and lum-
Der interests and the big electrical
combinations. 1t seems to me that
no other assumption Is possible.
Il do not advocate obstruction or
delay In conservation. Let the fed
eral government exert its wisest eff
forts to conserve the natural re-
sources until a plan sufficient and
acceptable can be devised for the
gradual transfer of jurisdiction to
the states. The states must be up
and doing, as President Taft advised
in his great, practical speech at st.
Paul. The states must prove their
ability and efficiency in the hand
ling of all their natural resources
This, I believe, must be the way In
which to solve this vexed problem.

its bearing on the welfare of this
| nation as a whole and particularly
OF the western portion Of the ma
ton, cannot safely be left in the
hands of men who are absorbed in
designs for the promotion of their
personal ambitions. | want to make
myself perfectly clear on this point
Men whose first thoughts are of
their own self-interest; men who are
counting favor and seeking means of
securing preferment in national poll
tics are dangerously apt to use every
instrument that comes to their hands
to serve their ambitions. And at
the st. Paul conference far more
time and far more oratory were de-
voted to securing an endorsement of
men than to proposing measures.
Inc man who at this day puts HIM
self or political faction ahead of
true conservation is an enemy of the
people and the peoples interests.
The st. Paul congress was conceived
in selfish ambition and brought forth
to boost political faction.
Much as l fear the program of
the leaders of this bureaucratic gov
eminent policy, how much more
fearfully must those who believe in
and with them contemplate the flu
ture. These men arrogate unto
themselves all the virtue, all the
honesty and all the disinterested pa
triotism extant. Those who fail to
agree with them are branded with
that short and ugly word and de-
nominated enemies of the plain peo-
pie. Of those who do agree only
a chosen few are to be entrusted
with leadership. We all know that
while these men may be infallible,
they are not immortal When they
die, what then of their policies? 1t
is uncomfortable that the world can
produce like apostolic coterie short
of another 1000 years.
AT ST. Paul the West was given
no opportunity to present it's case:
the delegates were not permitted to
make clear their attitude. They were
compelled to suffer the misery of
suppressing oratory long prepared
for the occasion, and in addition ex-
perienced the indignity of being Ia
belsd the hired agents of the 'spe-.
cial interests" This may be con-
vincing argument against the states
legal rights or their capacity to ham
die their own affairs. But, disre-
garding that phase of the assertion,
notice that the special interests are
not specified. All of Mr.. Pinchot's
speakers failed to name the particu-
lar special interest that is favoring
state control against federal control
of the natural resources AS a plain
matter of deduction, it must be pre-
sumed by the ordinary citizen that
the special interests they had in
mind are those most directly affect
ed by conservation of these resources
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1910-09-23

Mr.. Wallace, a dark horse" was
chosen, and the foregoing accounts
for Mr.. Pinchot concluding that it
was inadvisable to allow his own
name to be considered.
IF / remember correctly, no rep
resentative appointed by the COVER
nor of North Dakota, South Dakota,
Montana, Wyoming. Colorado. New
Mexico. Arizona, Idaho, Utah. Neva-
da, California. Oregon, Alaska, or
Observation-Disclosures states and
territories, where over SO per cent
of the federal reserves are located
was given place on the prepared
program. The accredited represen-
tatives of these states were given no
opportunity whatever to present
their views on conservation to the
congress. Only after the president
of the congress had been threatened
with trouble by the California dele
cation was a representative of that
state given a chance to speak. Even
then the state of California was lin
tied to fifteen minutes out of five
days session; her spokesman was
insulted by the presiding officer
when introduced, and the gavel used
when the fifteen minutes were up,
although the audience cheered the
speaker and desired that he con-
tinue.
THAT every governor and the
people of these western states and
territories favor conservation of our
natural resources is a statement not
open to debate. Every sane man ia
vors conserving and not wasting not
only our great natural resources
but everything good given to us by
an All-Wise Creator. The delegates
from the western states spent thou
sands of dollars of their own money
to attend the congress at st. Paul,
and when they arrived there were
insulted from the platform, denied
an opportunity to express their
views, and for all practical purposes
the governors might as well have
sent to st. Paul as many rag dolls.
The dolls would have received as
much consideration at the hands of
those in charge of the congress.
Hundreds of delegates, repre-
senting every state in the Union, at
tended this congress for the purpose
of giving impetus to what they be-
lieved to be a great cause. Not once
throughout the four days session
were they permitted to participate
either by voice or vote They found
themselves called, not to give aid to
conservation, but to assist in adver-
Using and promoting the interests
of certain ambitious individuals who
were looking either for vindication
of their past conduct or preference
for future political honors.
You will agree with me that
great economic question like this of
conservation, so vitality important in

per at the shrine of Mr.. Pinchot.
Further, in this connection, let
me present a few facts with which
you probably are not familiar: The
convention was advertised to hold
five days, but an adjournment was
forced on the evening of the fourth
day because there was danger that
Mr.. Pinchot might lose control If it
continued longer. The program had
been altered by pushing forward all
of Pinchot's friends to occupy the
open numbers in order to preclude
the possibility of delegate with
different views obtaining the floor.
and there were none of the faithful
left to speak on the fifth day. Wher-
ever the program called for discus
sion the chairman, always a crea-
ture of Mr.. Pinchot, called upon Mr..
Pardee or Mr.. Heney, or some other
equally faithful satellite of the ex-
forester, to do the discussing. 1t
was irOnclad. all right. No bets
were overlooked. l confess that the
noiseless and perfect manner in
which the big machine obeyed the
guiding hand of the master me-
chanic compelled my admiration.
even though it did not increase my
respect for the character of the man
who built and controlled it.
You probably noticed that Capt.
j. B. White, big lumberman of
Kansas City, was slated for presi-
dent to succeed Mr.. Baker, accord
ing to the program of Mr.. Pinchot
Mr.. White had long been friend
of Mr.. Pinchot and his policies, and
the latter had advocated his election
to the presidency of the third ma
tional congress long before the re-
cent congress assembled. The only
reason Mr.. White was not chosen
was because he refused to surrender
his manhood and his self-respect
Just before the decision was made.
Mr.. Pinchot approached Captain
White and presented a list, of names
for appointment to the offices in the
third congress and stated that he
would be named president only on
condition that those appointments
were made as dictated Captain
White very properly refused to sub
NIT to such an indignity and
promptly informed Mr.. Pinchot that
he would either be president in fact
or not permit his name to be con-
sidered for the place. Thereupon

1T is an indisputable proposition
that men who are convinced of the
Righteousness of their cause fear
nothing from a free discussion; in
fact that is thing they welcome as
an opportunity to prove the invul-
nerability of their position. 1t is
significant, therefore, to say the
least, that absolutely all possibility
of free discussion was prohibited at
St. Paul. You all are familiar with

and 1t Is doubtless the plan that will
meet with approval from the federal
authorities now administering the
government. President Taft put
himself on record thus: Il am firm
ly convinced that the only safe
course for us to pursue is to hold
fast to the limitations of the consti-
tuition and to regard as sacred the
