SYSTEMATIC CONSERVATION.
OF Mineral Resources is Desirable, Says
DR.. w. b. Phillips.

Phoenix, Ariz. Dec. Demonstration
OF mineral resources by recognized and
regulated authorities which would press
equally on all aud make for systematic
development was urged by DIR. William
| Il. Phillips of Austin, Texas, in an adj
dress before the American Mining com
pany here to-day.
"What we need" he declared, sis not
less conservation but more development;
not less of the spirit of saving but more
of the spirit of giving; the giving OF our
thine, our means, ourselves, to the task
of building a prosperous, farseeing and
economical nation.
"If our coal resources are to be con-
served" he continued, so must our re-
sources in iron, copper, silver, lead, ginc
oil, natural gas and other similar things.
We may not single out particular in
dustry and begin to conserve it without,
at the same time, taking into our view
the conservation of other industries, sim
liar and dissimilar. The power to con-
serve one is the power to conserve all.
Conservation" he said in closing,
"means the governmental control over
agencies of production which we have not
been able to control ourselves to the best
advantage. This control, to be thorough
ly effective, must be either by the state or
by the nation, the one or the other, not
both, separately or conformity. There may
be cooperation in work, but there cannot
be cooperation in authority"
DIR. Phillips did not indicate whether
he preferred state or national conser-
walton.

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

The Montpelier concern which cut the
salaries of the administrative officials and
office help in order to keep on the full
force of workmen in the factory, and on
full time as well, is giving a good illus
tration OF the spirit which is supposed TO
be particularly evident during the closing
days of the present month Indirectly,
too, the action is bound TO have wide
effect in that the community will not be-
depressed by having many men out Of
work or merely working on part time
We venture TO say that by slight reor-
ganization Of their home systems, the az
ministratiye heads and Office men can
maintain themselves and families on the.
reduced stipend for the time being,
whereas the pinch would be seriously felt

other alternative occasioned by slack bus
mess We're to be followed. Therefore. the
action Of the concern eommends itself IS

press dispatch gives the story OF an
address delivered by c. A. Prouty IN
Washington before the National Asso-
citation of Railway Commissioners, as
reported in yesterdays Herald. This
would indicate that the quadru-partisan
candidate had fully recovered from the
effects Of the recent Bull Moose catas-
trophe and was decidedly on the job.
The Herald il also informed that Sen.
ator William 2. Dillingham;, after a brief
rest from the strenuosities Of the cam
paign. is again wrestling with the mass
Of accumulated correspondence which he
finds before him and Is fast getting back
into harness with the old industry and
yigor.
Here are two agreeable consumma
tions. a. u seems 10 The Herald. Yer
mont refused 10 retire a worthy senator
from his high place in the Congress Of
the nation and also declined to remove
a useful public servant from his place At
the head Of the bureau for the valuation
Of the railroads Of the nation.
Both continue in public service and
both sill reflect distinct credit .ou the
state b. which they owe their allegiance.

There will be one new school building
and a greatly enlarged high school in
BaEre's system of public schools to shog
the visitors. There are many halls both
in the school buildings and in other build
ings for the meeting places of the small
en- organizations connected with the
teachers association and there is the
opera house, which is capable of accent
modating the chief meetings of the asso-
ciation There is ample train service IN

tended at the time of the recent conven-
ton in st. Johnsbury.

After three commercial steamers have
been sacrificed to mines on the Finnish
coast, it seems high time that commerce
be prohibited from using that section OF
the sea. As long as such underhanded
means of fighting as resort to mines as
approved by the nations of the world,
shipping will pot be safe near the coasts
of any belligerent or neighbor; and, in
fact, it will not be entirely safe in the
wide areas of the sea where the loosened
mines may drift.

The rate at which the buildings OF va.
rous educational institutions are being
destroyed by fire leads to the speculation
whether it would not be well to add fire
prevention" to the curriculum of each; at
least, course in personal responsibility
in looking after that part of the build
ings directly assigned to each person. 1t
is reported that the loss of the dormitory
at Phillips Andover academy was due to
the fact that live coal fell out of an
open fireplace onto inilammable material.
If such were the case, the possibility
might easily have been removed

Instead of losing members, the Yer
mont state grange ought to be gaining in
state which is so much given up to ag-
rculture as is Vermont. No pinch of
poverty can explain readily the loss of

the Vermont farmers have not been beset
by hard times to the extent that they
could not pay their dues if they had the
