given to all Governors, IL II made theh
more useful to the people. Governor Gill
christ of Florida. thought the Governors
had plenty of power all they needed he
said. was little more backbone
Governor in Name Only"
IL remained for Governor kitchin OF
North Carolina, however TO make a plea
for the extension of the powers of the GOV
ernor which appealed TO the Governors
ana the spectators too. Governor kitchln
said he was a Governor in name only. lie
did not have the power of veto, he said,
was printed in the newspapers. He had no
power Of appointment either he said. the
only duties he had TO perform so far as he
could see being the pardoning of prisoners
Governors Hadley, Shafroth, Burke, Haw-
ley and Cruise also took part in the dls-
cussion, the last named strenuously oppos-

judges should not have part in our laws.
Replying To Governor Wilson's address of
welcome at the opening of the conference,
Governor Carey of Wyoming criticised
sharply the present divorce laws Of the dit
ferent states and urged the enactment of a
uniform measure, which would make di-
vorce practically impossible
Speaking on this point he said:
The question of divorce to my mind, Is
one of the most important that concerns
the people of the United States. In travel
ling across the Continent you ma states
where divorces are handed out while you
wait. These divorces are undermining the
very best that there is IN our system OF
government. Under the Anglo-SaXon SyS-
tenn plan we believe that the marriage re-
lation is good for man and good for wonl-
an. We believe II should be entered INTO
FOR life and that only in extreme cases case,
should there be an exception to this RUE.
These divorces are granted by COLLISION.
They are granted often through the most
fragrant perjury, and when one mas once
entered into the divorce court ana mas Cd
tanned what he or she believes In be renef
il is never out of their mind that things
can't go just right
am from Wyoming woman suffrage
state | want to see woman suffrage
adopted in every state of the union !
want the women to take this question up
and make fight for it. Marry one man and
stick to that man. Marry one woman and
stick close 10 her so long as life does last;
Only. / say, in extreme cases should thls
rule he Departed from. ! don't care how
much YOU suffer Study that question be-
fore YOU enter into that relation
Now. these states should get together.
don't believe in going 10 Congress to aei-
tate = constitutional amendment to do
things that can be done through the states
themselves.
