way, the conference has a tendency
to curb a~nyinfrin cement IN these
rights by the Federal government by
bringinb out the enactment of legis-
latiOn In the various states that other.
wise might receive the attention of
congress. Heretofore it has seemed
easier to amend the constitution and
clOtha congress with certain neces-
sary power than to secnre uniform
legislation In the states. Eut the
governors conference, it Is believed,
will ultimately be able to bring about
uniform Legislation OF marriage and
divorce, child labor, rates of interest,
and numerous other social problems
of pressing importance, thus lessen
ing the tendency to expand the Fed
eral authority.
No fixed program has been pre-
pared for the present conference.
Several popers and addresses will be
presented, but for the most part the
governors will devote the time to an.
informal discussion of each subject
as it is introduced. These subjects
will relate largely to the administers
tive side of state business, such for
instance as The Growth of Admin
strative Commission" "A State De-
partment Of Efficiency and Economy.
and "The Cause and Remedy for Pop
ular District Of Legislatures"
A subject that has already received
considerable attention from the con.
ference and which is scheduled to he
taken up for further consideration at
the present session is the establish
ment of rural credit banks, land
mortgage societies and cooperative
buying and selling associations to
meet the needs Of the agricultural
folk of the United States. BY special
invitation Senator Fletcher of Florida
will deliver an address before the gov
ernors, giving a preliminary report
of the results of the Investigations
into European farm methods by the
American commission which recently
toured Europe.

BOLLEY ON
new SEED Law
Calls Attention to Chances In
New Seed Law Made
by Legislature

The last legislature enacted some
changes in the pure seed law. One
of the most important of these is that
which specifies that after July /, 1913,
all seeds sold for sowing or planting
purposes in the state of North DakO-
ia must reach a minimum viability Of
60 per cent or the sale is illegal.
1t will be noticed that this appar-
emily is a rather low requirement. 1t
is, however, a feature of very great
Importance in the following respects:
In order to be sure that they are
not violating the law, people who are
selling seeds will at least have to
test their seeds or have them tested.
This will prevent many people from
making mistakes, which might other:
wise ne all unintentionally made. =
If the seed is Of so low viability as
to represent only 60 per cent Of
growth power per hundred, such
seeds are to be classed as feed or for
age and sold as such. .
Seed growers of the state should
take notice regarding this feature,
especially those who expect to save
corn, flax, barley and other seeds for
sale to seedsmen and other parties
for use as seeds for sowing. If you
are going to sell seeds for sowing pur-
poses, the coming year, be SURF to
keep such grain from becoming wet
or subject to freezing, etc.
The farmers of this state would
have been able to have made thous-
ands Of dollars last year had they
picked their corn for seed properly
and saved it dry. This is also equally
true in regard to barley and flax,
seeds which are very easily injured
by a small amount OF moisture.
A new provision of the seed law
also allows this department to fur
nish certificates of quality and
breed. This will only be done in case
of seeds which are sealed under lead
| seal. be-.
This is a very important feature
Of the modified law, in that it ar
ranges for standardizing seeds SO
that the final grower will know ex.
actly whose seeds he is buying and
also the breed and quality.
We will be pleased to hear from
any grower of seeds for sowing pur.
| poses.

ROOSEVELT KILLS
THREE Big LIONS
Talks Politics.. Claims Credit
for Woman Suffrage
in Illinois

Chicago, Aug. 26.-In speaking OF
his outing in Arizona, Cal, Roosevelt
said here today THAI he spent the first
fortnight hunting, and the party kill
ed three mountain lions. He said he
shot one and his two sons killed the
Others. He said the only fresh meat
the party had on the hunting trip was
the mountain lions, and that the m Vat
was delicious.
He spent two weeks among the
Navajo tribe, and visited the great
natural bridge which spans the Grand
Canon, which he described as a "tri-
umphal arch of nature" He concluded
his visit by attending the snake dan
ces of the priests of the Hopi Indians,
which he said were extremely inter-
esting. '@aD3t'
He make a five-minute speech today
at the Progressive club, in which he
addressed the guests as friends, lad
les and gentlemen, voters all"
No Concessions to G. o. p.
In referring to the talk of merging
the Republican and Progressive par
ties he asserted that the only possibi-
lily of such a plan would be for the
Republicans to adopt every principle
Of the plank.
In his brief speech Col. Roosevelt
said: eyes.
"There would be no woman suffrage
in Illinois today if it had not been for
the word done by the Progressive
party last year. Never in the history
of the country has a political party &C
complished what the Progressive par
ty has in it's brief history.
"In regard to woman suffrage, I al
ways had insisted that woman's duty
as a voter would not interfere with
her domestic duties any more than 1t
does with a mans business. There
are some fool men who neglect their
business for politics, and I suppose
there will be some feminine fools Of
the same kind. God made woman
to match the men.
"Must Adopt Our Principles"
There has been a great deal of talk
about political parties getting togeth.
err. They can get together any time
they wish by joining us. But they
must adopt all of our principles and
the judiciary plank in our platform.
1T has been said that l have con
demned judges. have never done
anything Of the kind. I never used
anything like the language which Alb
raham Lincoln used in criticizing the
United States. supreme court. l be-
lieve judges are a high class of public
servants, but | do not believe in the
right of any public servant to become
a public master. 49,.
IF an executive does not do what
the public wants him to do he should
be recalled. even if he is a judge. If
we don't get the laws we want, we
should have the initiative and refer.
endum to give us the desired relief.
We intend to do injustice to no man.
I'VE are the only party thar has
adopted a rational plan for handling
both big and little business. We do
not believe in s%trangling business.
I'VE favor a policy that will compel
business to serve the public. not SWIM

governors MEET
IN CONFERENCE
To Discuss Public Problems
Of Common Interest 10
the Country

Colorado Springs, Col, Aug. 90
The sixth annual conference of gov
errors assembled here today to enter
upon a five days discussion OF pub
lie problems of common interest and
Importance to the entire country. The
conference is entirely non-partisaD
in character. The governors come
from all section of the country and
represent all shades of political belief.
Governor McGovern of Wisconsin,
Governor O'Neal of Alabama and Gov
ernor Ammons of Colorado constitute
the executive committee of the con-
ference. Others who are expected to
take a prominent part in the present
sessions are Governors Carey of Wyo-
ming, Baldwin. of Connecticut, Dunno
Of Illinois, Hanna of North Dakota,
Hodges Of Kansas, Lister OF Wash
ington, Clarke of Iowa, Haines of
Idaho, Major Of Missouri and West
Of Oregon.
The conference had its origin in
1908, when President Roosevelt called
the governors together at Washington
to discuss steps for the conservation
of the natural esources of the coun-
try. At this initial meeting it was
decided to make the conference a per-
manent body and to hold annual SEES
sions with the object Of exchanging
views on subjects Of general import
ance, promoting greater uniformity in
state legislation. and attaining greater
efficiency in the state administration.
Since the meeting in Washington
in 1908. the conference has held SEES
sions in Frankfort, KY, Trenton, N.
IT,, and Richmond, Va. The attend
ance has increased at each yearly
session and at the same time the
influence and Importance of the con.
ference has broadened. Al a safe
guard to states rights, the influence
and importance Of the conference can
hardly be overestimated. In the same

Bv Robert NJ. McWade.

Washington, August 26.--Since the
publication in The Bismarck Tribune
of my dispatches regarding the En-
larged Homestead Act, passed through
the aggressive activity of Senator
Gronna, and about which he induced
the department OF the interior to
make additional allowances to home
| steaders, he has been literally over
whelmed with letters OF inquiry from
| almost every part of the state. For
the purpose Of gaining the fullest
possible Information for all intending
and other homesteaders, Senator
Gronna again kept on pushing the
department folks, with the result that
he has received the following self
explanatory communication from the
assistant commission of the interior:
My Dear SENATOR am in receipt
of your letter of August 1898, by
departmental reference, relative to
the designated lands in North DakO-
ia subject to entry under the Enlarg-
ed Homestead Act.
In reply, you are advised that there
have been several designations OF
lands in the western part Of that
state, in the Winston, Dickinson and
Minot districts. The last designation
embraced approximately 7,762,776
acres, and covered the greater part
of the land in the following town
ships:

BIDDING FOR A BANK
Elevator Also Desired as Keota
Enterprise

Keota wants and needs bank, wants
and is almost certain to soon need an
elevator. Accordingly on Monday eve
ming special meeting of Keota Com
mercial Club was held to discuss these
needs and ways to satisfy them. J. A.
Rumsey reported that about year ago
an official of the First National Bank of
Cheyenne, in conversation with him,
had stated that whenever conditions
should warrant. his firm would be ready
and willing to put in both bank and an
elevator here. The opinion Of the club
is that the local conditions would now
justify these enterprises. Mr.. Rumsey
was appointed to interview the Chey-
enne people, which he did on Wednes-
day, in company with 8. w. Fox. Mr..
Abbot, vice president and manager, and
Mr.. Johnson, cashier, Of the First Ma
tional Bank of Cheyenne, talked en-
couragingly Of the proposition, and
agreed to make an investigation here
early in July, when the season will be
farther advanced They are considering
similar projects for several other points,
but favorable action here will not de-
pend on the action taken in regard to
the other places.
In the country Immediately tributary
to Keota it is estimated that there is at
least 4, 600 acres of excellent wheat, and
an equal or greater acreage Of other
small grains. If the yield Is even half
what the present crop conditions would
indicate, an elevator would be sure of
satisfactory business to start with, for
it would naturally draw patronage from
a larger territory than is included in
these figures. Last year the local deal
ers sold five binders, one header, and
two reapers; for this season they already
have orders for twelve binders. and
more will be needed to take care Of the
harvest.
The Keota news., 1913-06-13
The Weather

Cold, with disagreeable wind from
southeast for four days, commencing
Monday. Good rain accompanied by
some hail Thursday afternoon, with
rain during night also. Crop conditions
continue excellent.
Those disposed to complain of the un-
seasonable weather of the early part of
the week. should consider the more dis
agreeable and really damaging weather
prevalent at the same time in the east
ern states. Farm and garden products
were injured by frosts in many eastern
Localities, and the coolest June weather
recorded in fifty years was reported by
the weather bureaus.
