Norris Urges Action.

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 3.-Perpetua-
ton of the governors conference as a
permanent organization with chief
aim to attain rank as q force in mould
ing public opinion and shaping public
policies was advocated by Governor
Norris OF Montana today in response
to addresses welcoming 10 state execu.
tives to the fifth annual gathering,
which opened here.
'Much of the actual value has been
accomplished in previous conferences.
Governor Norris said, "but the con-
~ferences have not been the potent fac.
torithey should have been. No definite
position has been taken upon any
question and no fixed purpose has
been accomplished. Under our present
system the conferences seem to impress
the public more as social than as bust
ness gatherings. A vigorous express
sion of the consensus of opinion on
subjects discussed and considered
would counters act this error and inject
into the conference 8 potency and
virility not otherwise possible

Coal Mining History.

The first mention OF the occurrence
of coal in the United States, accord
ing to the United States geological
survey, is made in the journal of
Father Hennepin, q French Jesuit
missionary, who in 1879 recorded the
site of q "cole mine'' on Illinois river
near the present city of Ottawa, Ill.
The first actual mining of coal was in
the Richmond Basin, Va, about 70
years after Father Hennepin's discov-
cry in Illinois, but the fret records of
production from the Virginia mines
were for the year 1922, when, accord
ing to one authority, 54, 1000 IONS were
mined.
Ohio probably ranks second In pri-
GRITTY of production, as coal was dis
covered there in 1856, but the records
of production date back only to 1888.
The mining of anthracite in Pennsyl.
yania began about 1890, and it is said
that in 1907 IS tons we're shipped &c
Columbia, Pa. Reports of the anthra'
cite coal trade are usually begun with
the year 1920, when 365 long IONS were
shipped to Philadelphia from the
Lehigh region. Prior to this, how
ever, in 1914, a shipment of % tons
was made from Carbondale, also tc
Philadelphia, and the production IL
conidered to have begun in that year
1t is probable that the actual pro-
duc,ion prior to 1920 was between $500
and 5000 tons. The production fol
1911 was 496, 22l, 1913 short tons.

Touching Memories !.

Senator Clapp, at a dinner in Wash.
ington, chuckled over the appearance
before his committee of Colonel Roose-
welt.
1.-THE colonel" he said, "certainly
got back at everybody. He reminded
me of the Irishman.
IA friend Of mine, travelling In Ire
land, stopped for q drink of milk at
a white cottage with a matched roof,
and as be slipped his refreshment he
noted on a center table under q glass
dome, a brick with q faded red rose
upon the top of it.
"Why do you cherish in this way
my friend said to- his host, shat CON-
mon brick and thai dead rose?"
SO Shure, SIR was the reply,
there's certain memories attachin' to
them. Do you see this big dent in my
head? Well, it vas made by that
BRICK
"'But the rose?' said my friend.
"His host smiled quietly.
1.-The rose,' he explained, is of
the grave of the man that threw the
hrick.'

Peculiar and Pertinent.

In the year 1868 rat pies were fire.
quently eaten in the neighborhood of
Nottingham, Eng. One inn made a
feature of periodical rat suppers.
Frank auckland records the immunity
from scurvy OF those members OF q
polar expedition who did not disd ain
to partake of the cooks excellent rat
soup.
A curious form OF water hole is
found in the deserts of western Aus.
tralia. The hole Is dry by day, but
yields an abundant supply OF water by
night. The flow of water is preceded
by weird Kissing and sounds of rush
ing air.
In the "gumbo" regions OF the lower
Mississippi valley, where the roads
have been the worst In the world, pro-
gressive citizens have taken 70 burn
ing the clay OF the soil and spreading
this material over the highways. The
''gumbo" is so changed by the heat
that it presents q fairly hard and mud
less surface even after a heavy rain.

The Ages Of Animals.

Cndoubtedly the longes,-lived ami
NAL on earth is the whale, its span OF
existence being esti1D ated by Cuvier at
1000 years. The next largest animal
the elephant, will, under favorable
conditions, live 400 years.
When Alexander the great conquered
Porus. king of India, be took a great
elephant that he had fought gallantly
for the defeated king, named him Ajax
dedicated him to the SUM-, and placed
pom him q metal band with inscrip-
ton, "Alexander, the son OF Jupiter.
dedicated Ajax to the SUM-" The
elephant was found alive $50 years
later.
The average age of cats is Is years;
of squirrels, 7 or S years; OF rabbits, Z
q bear rarely exceeds 20 years; a wolf
20; a fox, IA to l6. Lions are com
paratively long-lived, instances hav'
ing been recorded where they reached
the age of 70 years.
Pigs have been known to live to the
age of 20 years and horses to 60, bu'
the average age of the horse ia 20 to 81
wears.

Governor Defends Lynch Law.

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. Sin the
name of the state of South Carolina,
Governor Blease served notice to the
governors conference here today that
lynchers. of negro ass atlantis of white
women would go %unpunished in his
state.
Governor Blease warmly defended
his use OF pardoning power. He de-
clared that in % months he had par
doned or paroled approximately 400
persons, and said he hoped the mum.
Der at the end of the second term
would be 800.
81 have said all over South Caro-
lima and I say it again now" he de.
clared, THAT I never order out the
militia to shoot down their neighbors
and thereby protect the black brute
who commits the nameless crime
against q white woman. Therefore, in
South Carolina, let it be understood
that when a negro assaults q white
woman, all that Ia needed is that they
get the right man, and they who ge,
him will neither need nor receive q
trial.
The river press. [volume] (Fort Benton, Mont.) 1880-current, 1912-12-11

ton since the Civil war has coincided
wi.h-many believe has produced
more or less of industrial stagnation,
financial distress and "hard times"
In the light of this experience prudent
men will naturally incline to caution
in their enterprises and expenditures
for some time to come. They will be
the more inclined to caution by the fact
that the democracy is pledged to dras.
tic and even revolutionary dealings
with the tariff.
However, the eitu alton has certain
advantages. 1t makes for clearance OF
vision and clearness of thought in
politics and public affairs. For the
fret time in several years we will have
really responsible government at
Washington. We will have govern
ment for which q great party is wholly
responsible, and a stu alton in which
that party's responsibility cannot be
evaded, lodged or explained away.
We will have an end of the in-and-out
playing with great issues and vital
measures which has confused and ex.
asperated the country for the last two
years especially.
With the president republican, the
house democratic and the sen ate either
or neither as happened to euit insur-
gent fancies of the moment, the polly
wogs of politics have had a great time.
For whatever pleased the people they
could claim credit. For whatever
went wrong they could blame the other
fellows.
For the next two years there will be
no such possibilities of fooling the
people. They will know whom to
praise and whom to blame. The
shirkers and dodgers cannot hide be.
hind one another.
In this stu alton is the republican
party's opportunity. 1t will have In
the house and senate a considerable
body of able men. Let these repre-.
sentatives of republican principles be
united, alertly watchtul, not petulantly
obstructive but soberly critical.
We now have the democratic party
wholly responsible for the national
government. It ia for the republican
party to furnish q strong and ssnely
responsible opposition.-Inter Ocean.
