Cu\ not Not at Irrigatiou Congress Takes Fall Out of Eastern Men For Their Attitude Toward the Western Governors at the Conservation Congress Held -hin St. Paul Last September Governor Norris while making the principal address at the United States Land and Irriga- tion congress recently held in Chicago, took a fall out of the eastern men who treated the western governors with contempt at the conservation congress held in St. Paul last September. He said in part: \It seems eminently fitting that a land and irrigation con- gress, organized for the purpose of exhibiting products of the soil should be held in Chicago. This is the gateway between the pop- ulous centers of the east, where- in there is an overcrowded popu- lation striving for mere existence and the great undeveloped west, where there are prosperous homes for millions of people. \Several western governors journeyed to St. Paul in Septem- ber last to take part in the de- liberations of the National Con- servation congress, of which they were members. It was found on arrival that the delegates at- tending from the west, where al- most all the unappropriated na- tural recources are to be found, were expected to sit at the feet of the eastern conservation sages and hear theories on conserva- tion expounded. It is astonish- ing how wisely some men can , talk on some subjects and how many high-sounding theories may be advocated by them concerning something of which they have no partical knowledge. The west- ern delegates desired that some ideas be advanced which were adverse to the sentiments of the inner circle of men who controll- ed that congress. but no oppor- tunity was given for that pur- pose. Men from the mountains grow restless from inaction, and the western governors returned home. Notwithstanding their de- parture, it was announced in the newspapers that the pugnacious governor of Kansas would re- main on guard to see \that the western governors did not start something.\ The western gov- ernors did not withdraw from the conference, as was reported, but in fact many of them were nam- ed as vice presidents of the con- gress and will be on hand at the next meeting to give reasons for the faith that is in them, if op- portunity is offered. \Let it here be said that west- ern men will not sit supinely by while this impvtant problem is undergoing solution. We cart not admit. that 'those who have proven themselves to be incapa- ble of protecting their own are more competent than we are to formulate plans for the adminis- tration of resources that of right belong to us. \It is evident that extensive use and flagrant waste of resour- ces have reached the danger point and that more careful con- sumption is advisable. \It is fortunate indeed that the public conscience has been awak- ened and a sentiment favorable to conservation has been created. All honor to those who cause that awakened and created that sentiment. The conservation of natural resources is a practical business problem. Sentiment serves as spur to action but does not point that way. There is no subject which has produced so much talk and so little action. Many speak volubly about the necessity for conservation, but few advance practical ideas. Some 300,000,000 acres of the public domain, exclusive of that in Alaska, have been withdrawn I from settlement, appropriation and use. These withdrawals in - elude forest reserves, power sites, coal, gas and oil and phosphate lands. Large areas of agricul- tural and grazing lands are also inch - ded in various withdrawals. \Let there he no misunder- standing concerning our position on the conservation and will ap- prove of any plan best calculated to accomplish that end. We now believe that the states can best conserve resources under safe- guards heretofore referred to. If our proposed way is not the best way, then we will enthusi- astically favor a better way.

Public invited to all service Batchellor Club Items It 'has just been discovered that Thomas Marland is like the setting sun under a dark cloud. We are in a position to recom- mend Harry DeTuncq for mind- ing his own business—especially at the table. We understand why Guy Logan is such a favorate among the ladies, for he insists on keeping his place just the same as he does at the tal;le. Whit Peden informs us that since he has been eating at the Bstchellors Club, he has gained in flesh, and that the hair has started to grow on his head. All the members are very proud of our cook (Mrs. Lewis) as there is no better to be found, and her sunny disposition also add to the appetizing meals. Although the Hardin Batchel- lor Club (The Life Saving Sta- tion) is in the balmy thys of its youth, nearly all the members have distinguished themselves at the table or elsewhere. Mr. Scott comes very regular to his meals and brings a bucket with him so he can take his dogs something to eat. Well, maybe the dogs do get part of it, but we notice John is looking very healthy lately. We now have the application of two or three lady members, but as Ed . Torske and C. C. Cal- houn stand like a stonewall against lady member, we are not yet sure cif their membership and on the other side of the table sits Charley Eder just as stern and, with the strong backing of three or four others, so we think Mr. Eder will win out. The Late Mrs. Eddy And Her Work 1 1 The Rev. Irl R. Hicks Alma - The Rev. In R. Hicks 1911 Almanac Mary Baker G. Eddy, the founder of the Christian Sci- ence Church is dead, and with 4 this incident there passes in- to history one of the greatest benefactors the world has ev- er known. Mrs. Eddy discovered this science in the year 1866 when she had met with an accident and had received internal in- juries for which the physici- ans held out absolutely no hope. She asked for her bi- ble and in reading of the healing of the man sick with palsy, this system of healing was revealed to her and she arose from her bed immed- iately. For three years following she sought the solution of this Mind healing, and named her discovery Christian Science. She copyrighted various pam- phlets at this time, but her greatest book, in which this healing system is explained, was not published until 1875. Through the reading of this book thousands of hopeless in- vilids have been healed. Wherever Christian Science has been scientifically applied it has shown itself to be \The most effective curative agent in medical practice.\ The Christian Science church is paralled by no other in the ra- pidity of its growth. Having been in existance only about forty years, it numbers over one million adherents. Mrs. Eddy's death is no proof that her teachings were at fault. She has predicted the final conquest of sin, sick- ness and death. but not until perfect understanding is reached. Ie one of her books she says: \To say that you and I as mortals, will not enter the dark shadow of material sense, called death,ie to ass..rt- what we have not proved; but man in Science never dies. The achievment of this ulti- matum of Science, complete triumph over death, requires time and immense spiritual growth.\ The thousands of cases where so-called incurable dis- eases, sin and inharmony have been overcome furnishes an abundance of hope that \the last enemy\ will finally be conquered by this power as re- vealed in Christian Science. This church will continue as before. It is founded on an enduring basis and its mem- bers will continue to labor for the welfare of humanity. Their venerable leader is gone but the multitude that has come, so to speak, from a graveyard through her teach- ings will remain a living mon- ument to her teachings. 1 \Er •••-••••-••• Organize Twilight Club A number of young ladies met at the home of Mrs. Wise last Friday and organized a club, which will be known as the Twilight Club. They elected officers as follows: Nelle Pick- ard. president, Flola Bateman, vice president, Stella Ferguson, secretary, and Vera Craig, treas- urer.

This is many more than were killed during the previous season of which there is any re- cord. The loss of life in 1909 was eighty-seven, in 1908 fifty-seven in 1907 eighty and in 1906 seventy- four. The number of injured this season, however, is less than a year ago; only eighty-one have been hurt this year, against 104 for the season of 1909. It is likely the death list this year will ,be greatly increased later by reason of fatal termina- tion in the eas2s of many of the injured. \Mistaken for a deer\ and \shot by a companion\ continue to lead the reason for the shoot- ing of hunters. It is small won- der there are so many cases of hunters being mistaken for game as in several states the forests practically are alive with hunt- ers during the season. The state game warden of Michigan esti- mated that there wore no less than 21,000 hunters in the upper peninsula this year. Carelessness in the handling of guns was responsible for most of the cases where hunters shot themselves. One hunter near Mellen, Wis., probably would have been lynch- ed had he been caught. He shot and killed City Clerk Oleson of Abbottsford, apparently think- ing him an animal. Oleson was walking along a road when a man came out of the forest and pointed a gun at him. Oleson threw up his hands and shouted but the man shot him in the lung and fled. Oleson died soon after but was able to give an account. of the shooting to his companions as they came up. Bloodnounds were obtained and a posse or- ganized, but no trace of the hunter could be found. A pathetic incident in connec- tion with the accidental shooting of a companion happened in Michigan. While hunting near Dryberg, Samuel Smith was kill- ed by his cousin, True Smith. As some companions started to carry the body home they come across True Smith with his head shat- tered by a load of buckshot. In a pocket was a note explaining that it was he who had shot • Samuel, and to atone for his carelessness he had killed him- self Minneapolis Journal.
