Although but twenty. n years of age
North Dakota shows a growth and
development approaching the pheno-
monal. With seventy acres of improved
land for every man, woman and child
and a per capita of wealth of S1,931, the
hgures tell their WI story. She has an
assessed valuation of 1892, 100000 in
round numbers. An actual property
value of s1,l6S, 100000 and she has 5000
miles of railroad in operation, an avail
able land surface of over 100000 acres.
With sixty-four banks, over 5000
schools and nearly 5000 teachers, with
an expenditure of over 100000 on
schools alone, the figures assume dazz-
ling proportions. And in addition the
state has $4,000 square miles of land
underlaid with Ignite coal. These are
but a few Of the and institu-
tions to which attention is called in the
summary above.

Tho Governors, Conference.

Almost without observation has
grown up in this country a new fac
tor in national, or, rather, in inter-
state, affairs that may have farreach-
ing influences. The governors confer
ence has been establishing itself as a
permanent Institution, a sort Of third
house in national affairs. AS yet its
tangible effects have not been consid-
cradle, yet it has probably exerted al
Influence over the chief executives
themselves and through them on the
state legislatures. 1t has made little
noise in the papers, having received
less notice than was it's due, consider
ing the Importance Of the body and of
the members who compose it.
Two informal conferences were held
during the administration Of President
Roosevelt and two since, the last two
marking the beginning Of the gov
errors conference proper. The meet
ing at Frankfort and Louisville last
year vas perhaps not as fruitful as it
otherwise would have been, owing to
the fact that it met at a time when
many governors were going out of Of
fee and rs many others coming in.
The meeting this year, which is held
Sept. 1917 at Spring Lake. N. j.. is
more fortunate in this regard.
The. head of the conference, so far
as it has a head. is Governor Wood
row Wilson of New Jersey, chairman
Of the committee on arrangements.
The secretary is William George Jor.
dan Of New York, who first suggested
the body and in that sense is its father.
The subjects selected for discussion
this year are STRENGTHENING the Power
Of the Executive" employers Liabil-
ity and Workingmen's Compensation"
"The Inheritance Tax and State Com
ity," '"The Right Of the State to Fix
Intrastate Traffic Rates." estate Con
troll of Public Utilities and PROBLEMS
of Prison Labor Among the distin-
guished governors participating in the
discussion of these various topics are
Norris of Montana. O'Neal Of Alabama.
Deneen of Illinois. Foss of Massachu-
sets, Dix of New York, Hadley of
Missouri, McGovern of Wisconsin and
Osborn of Michigan. Wisconsin. by
the way, has made her governor the
accredited representative Of the state
at the conference and has thus taken
the first step toward constituting the
body an official house Of governors. in
line with Secretary Jordan's original
plan. J. A. EDGERTON.

York. Neb.. is a little city about 100
miles due west from Lincoln and in
the rolling lands to the south Of the
river Platte. 1t has and has always
had much Of green fields around it.
Some dozen years ago it boosted, in a
shamefaced way, of an area Of nearly
thirteen acres, says e. T. Hartman In
American City.
Presently a civic streak was struck
In the body polite of York, and leaders
sprang up to say that something should
be done and that the old pasture Of
fered a good opportunity. A mass
meeting was called, and the idea was
laid before the people. The ogre ''cost'
thrust his head among them in the
shape of a hirsute head Of p%atriarchal
cut and croaked as usual, But where
is the money to come from?" He was
told that the leaders had secured an
option at a fair price, that there would
be no touching Of the community purse
and that the money would come from
the people, a dollar from each citizen
making all possible. The ogre retired,
and the people went to work.
The land was bought and a land
scape architect employed to develop it.
And the people learned to use what
they had provided. Tramping, pic
nicking and even camping became the
vogue, for any reasonable use is al
lowed so long as the people scatter no
rubbish.

cratic legislature pledged to state wide
primeries That promise has just been
INTELLECTUALLY as the Maine demo-
Gratis promised it would. Three years
ago the republicans of the nation elected
William H. Taft to the presidency on
his personal pledge that he would revise
the tariff downward. President Taft
has turned down to opportunities to
keep his word, The democratic legisla-
ture of Maine did after election what 1t
promised to do before election. Mr.,
Taft has but exemplitied the republican
rule of forgetting promises as soon as an

While Taft is swinging round the
circle making speeches-and saying
nothing-seven large clothing manu-
featuring firms in his home city of
Cincinnati are closing their doors and
throwing hundreds Of men out of en-
ployment. Without exception, these
firms lay the cause of their closing down
to the excessive tariff on wool and
oolen goods. And Taft vetoed the
wool bill because it wasn't "scientitic.'
