A Danger to Conservation.

The President mentions the opposing
arguments that the Government cannot
exercise police jurisdiction with refer
ence to how the water in a river owned
and controlled by the State shall be
used: He SAYS he questions the validi-
ty Of such an objection. The Govern
ment may impose any conditions that it
chooses in its lease of its own property,
even tho it may have the same purpose,
and in effect accomplish just what the
State would accomplish by the exercise
of its so'-rreignty.'
After taking up suggestions that the
United States grant to the States au-
thority over water-power sites, with
conditions that the States shall never
part with the title to this property and
shall lease it only on certain conditions,
the President adds: Il do not EXPRESS
an opinion upon the controversy thus
made or a preference as to the two
methods of treating water-power sites.
shall submit the matter to Congress.
and urge that one or the other of the
two plans be adopted"
The President issues warning
against spreading the idea that con-
servation is the tying up of the natural
resources of the Government for in
definite Withholding from use and the
remission to remote generations to de-
eide what ought to be done with these
means Oh promoting present general
human comfort and progress. For, If
So" he adds, "it is certain to arouse
the greatest opposition to conservation
as cause, and il it were correct ex-
preston of the purpose of conservation
lists it ought to arouse this opposition.
Real conservation involves wise, nom
waSteful use in the present generation,
with every possible means of preserva-
ton for succeeding generations, and
tho the problem to secure this end may
be difficult. the burden is on the pres
ent generation promptly to solve it. and
not TO run away from it as towards, lest
in The attempt to meet it We may make
some mistake"
The President closes his address with
the thought that when men come for
ward to suggest evils that the promo
ton Of conservation is to remedy that
you invite them to point out the specific
evils and the specific remedies; that
you invite them to come down to de-
tails, in order that their discussions
may flow into channels that shall be
useful, rather than into periods that
shall be eloquent and entertaining with
out shedding light on the subject The
people should be shown exactly what is
needed, in order that they make their
representatives in Congress and the
State Legislature do their intelligent
bidding"

SOME "GRAY" SENTIMENT,
But No Gray Matter Mixed With It.
One Arthur Jennings's Mental Lucu-
brations-We Are Not Aristocrats, He
Says-Some Other Letters.

The letters which follow are from
Sons of Confederate Veterans to Col.
Jasper Darling, of Chicago, and are
called forth by the rafting fine speech
of Col. Darling against the Lee statue
in Statuary Hall. Mr.. Jennings seems
to belong to the second generation of
rebels. His father, if he was a good
Confederate soldier. was probably also
a gentleman, and would never have
been guilty of such ill-breeding, or he
may have been poor white, and that
accounts for the sons ignorance:

lis of course. not 4 satisfactory one Tor
the purpose of inviting the capital need
ed to put in proper plants for the trans
mutation of power.
The subject" the President ADDS,
sis one that calls for new legislation.
II has been thought that there was
danger of combination to obtain possess
sion of all the power sites and to unite
them under one control. Whatever the
evidence of this, or lack of it. at present
we have had enough experience to know
that combination would be profitable
and the control of a great Eumber of
power sites would enable the holders
or owners to raise the price of power
at will within certain sections.
The President says it is the plain
duty of the Government to impose
conditions upon the development and
utilization of water-pOwer sites. which
it holds. so as to prevent monopoly
and eXtortionate charges" The Presi-
dent says that the difficulty of adjust
ing the matter lis aCCentuatcd by the
relation of the power sites to the water.
the fall and flow of which create the
power. In the States where these sites
are the riparian owner does net control
or own the power in the water which
flows past his land. That power is un-
der the control and within the grant ot
the State. and generally the rule is that
the first user is entitled to the enjoy
ment. The possession of the bank or
water-power site" the President adds,
gives its owner an advantage ard
certain kind of control, and it Is pro-
posed that the Government in dealing
with its own lands should use this ad-
vantage and lease lands for power sites
to those who would develop the power.
and impose conditions upon the lease
hold with reference to the reasonable
ness of rates at which the power when
transmitted is to be furnished to the
public. and forbidding the union of
the particular power with a cOmbina-
ton of others made for the purpose Of
monopoly by forbidding the assignment
of the lease save by consent of the
Government"

Phosphate Rock Lands.

At present the Government has clas-

acres. Half the phosphate rock mined
in the United States in private fields is
now exported. The President SAYS that
lit is uncertain whether the placer or
lode law applies to the Government
phosphate rock and that there il ne
cessity for some definite and Wcll-con-
sidered legislation upon the subject -
"A law that would provide leasing
system for the phosphate deposits to-
gether with provision for the separa-
ton OF the surface and mineral rights
as is already provided in the case of
coal. would seem TO meet the need Of
promoting the development of these
deposits and their utilization in the
agricultural lands of the West" The
President intimates that il may ie de-
sirable to discourage the export of
phosphate rock, and If this is done he
states that the Government. as lessor.
can impose restrictions upon the min
ing of rock for export.
