St Paul, Sept. a America'" reputation for efficiency stand deservedly high throughout tbe world. We are efficient probably to tbe full limit tbat any nation can attain by tbe methods hitherto used. There la great reason to bt proud of our achievements and yet bo reason to believe tbat we cannot excel our past " Through a practically no restrained individualism we bare reached a pitch of literally unexsmpled material prosperity, although tbe distribution of this prosperity lesves Orach to be desired from tbe atandpoint of Justice and fair dealing. ; But we bare not only allowed tbe Individual a free hand, wblcb waa In tbe main right; we hare also allowed great twi.wi iv ait a iuuuku lur .were individuals and to exercise tbe rights of Indlvldnsle, in addition to using tbe vast combined power of Sigh organisation and enormous wealth for their own advantage. Tbla development of corporate action. It la true, la doubtless in large part responsible for tbe gigantic development of our natural resources. mi lit i nut ima rvnpuuBiuiv tw waaiv, destruction and monopoly on an equal1 gigantic scale. t The method of reckleaa and uncontrolled private two and waste baa done for ua all tbe good It ever can, and It la time to put an end to It before It does all tbe evil It easily may. We have paased tbe time when heedless .waste and destruction and arrogant monopoly are any longer permissible. Henceforth we must seek national efficiency by a new and a. better way, by the way of tbe orderly development and use, coupled with tbe preservation of our natural resources, by making the moat of what we have for the benefit of all of ua. Instead of leaving the sources of material prosperity open to Indiscriminate exploitation. These are some of tbe reasons wby It la wise tbat we should abandon tbe old point of view and. wby conservation has become a patriotic duty. - Waterways. I ,One of the greatest of our conservation, problems la tbe wise and prompt development and use of the waterways of this nation. The Twin Cities, lying aa they do at the headwaters of tbe Mississippi, are not upon tbe direct line of the proposed lakea to tbe gulf deep waterway. Yet they are deeply Interested in Ita prompt completion, aa well aa in tbe deepening and regulation of tbe Mississippi to tbe mouth of the Missouri and to the gulf. ''The project for a great trunk waterway, an arm -of the sea, extending from tbe gulf of Mexico to tbe great lakea, should not be abandoned. The lakea to tbe gulf deep waterway and the development of tbe rivers which flow into It ahoukt bo pushed to completion vigorously and without delay. But we must racognixo at the outset that there ore certain conditions without which tbe people cannot hope to derive from It the benefits they have right to expect. In nearly every river city from St Taul to tbe gulf the water front ia controlled by tbe railways. Nearly every artificial waterway In tbe United States, either directly or Indirectly, la jnder tbe same control. It goes without saying tbat unless fee people prevent It in advance tbe mllwaya wflt attempt to take control ( our waterways aa fast.ae they are improved and completed, nor would I ttame. them.

pine fn tin n::i;t.r. We must see to It that adequate terminate are provided in every city and town on every Improved water way, terminals open under reasonable conditions to the uie of every citizen and rigidly protected against monopoly. And we must compel the railway to co-operate with the waterways continuously, effectively and under rea aonable conditions. Unless we do so the rallwsy line will refuse to deliver freight to tbe boat lines, either openly or by impos Ing prohibitory conditions, and tbe waterways once Improved will do comparatively little for tbe benefit of tbe people wbo pay tbe bill. The National Forests. Tbe people of the United States be lleve In tbe complete and rounded development of- Inland waterways for all tbe useful purposes tbey can be made to serve. They believe also In forest protection and forest extension. Tbe fight for our national forests In tbe west has been won. After a campaign In which the women of Mlnnesota did work which should secure to tbem tbe perpetual gratitude of their atate Minnesota won ber national forest sad will keep It. but tbe fight to create tbe southern Appalachian and White mountain forests in tbe east is not yet over. . Tbe bill bas passed the bouse and Will come before tbe senate for a vote next February. Tbe people of tbe United States regardless of party or aectlon should stand solidly behind 1: and see that their representatives do likewise. If any proof were needed tbat forest protection Is a national duty tbe recent destruction of forests in the west by fire would supply It Even wltb thr aid of the army added to that of the forest service the loss has been severe Without either It would bave been Vastly greater. But the forest service does more than protect the national forests against fire. It makes them practically and increasingly useful as well. During the last year for which I bare the figures the national forests were used by 22,000 cattlemen with their herds. 6,000 sheepmen wltb tbelr flocks. 5,000 tlmbermen wltb their crews and 43. 000 miners. More than 0,000 persons used them for other special Industries. Nearly 34,000 settlers had tbe free use Of wood. The total resident population of the national forests is about a quarter ol a million, which is larger than tbe pop ulatlon of certain states More than 700.000 acres of agrlcul tural land have been patented or listed for patent within tbe forests, and tbe reports of tbe forest officers show that more than 400.000 people a year use the forests for recreation, camping, hunting, fishing and similar purposes. All this Is done, of course, without In Jury to tbe timber, which baa a value of at least $1,000,000,000. Moreover, the national forests protect the water supply of a thousand cities and towns, about 800 Irrigation projects and more -than 300 power projects, not counting tbe use of water for these and other purposes by Individual settlers. ' I think that hereafter we may safely disregard any statements tbat tbe national forests are withdrawn from aettlement and use. A Country tife Institute. The Investigations of the country life commission have led tlio farmers of this country to realize that they have not been getting their fair share of progress and all that It brings. Some of our farming communities in tbe Mississippi valley and In tbe middle west have made marvelous progress, yet even the best of them, like communities of every other kind, are not beyond Improvement, while much needa to be done in some other sections to improve country life.

tfon. The means t't bett fahnln; we bave studied wltb , care, but to better living on tbe farm and to better business on tbe farm tbe farmers themselves bave given scant attention. Last spring while visiting the capital of Hungary. Budapest. I was immensely Impressed by the Museum of Country Life, containing an extraordinary series of studies In agriculture, in tock raising, in forestry, in mining. Tbe exhibits were of tbe utmost practical importance and w ere also intensely Interesting and instructive. I greatly wish we bad such a muaeum in Washington, and some of your farmer congressmen ought to get a full and detailed report of this Budapest museum to be printed for distribution In a public document Human Efficiency. Aa a people we bave not yet learned to economize. One of tbe virtues we Americans most need is thrift. It is a mere truism to say tbat luxury and extravagance are not good for a nation. So far as tbey affect character, tbe loss tbey cause may be beyond computation. But In the material sense there Is a loss greater than la caused by both extravagance and luxnry put together. 1 mean tbe needless, useless and excessive loss to our people from premature death and avoidable diseases. Wholly apart from tbe grief, tbe suffering and the wretchedness which tbey cause, tbe material loss each year haa been calculated at nearly twice what it costs to run tbe federal government - In addition to tbe state and city health officers and organizations, there la urgently needed a federal bureau of health, to act. so far as tbe national government properly may. to relieve our people from this dreadful burden. The National Conservation Commission. One of the most Important meetings In our recent history was that of tbe governors in the White House in May, 1908, to consider tbe conservation question. By the advice of tbe governors the meeting was followed by the appointment of a national conservation commission. The meeting of the governors directed the attention of tbe country to conservation as nothing else could bave done. While the work of tbe commisslou gave tbe movement deflnlteness and supplied it with a practical program; But at the moment when the commission was ready to begin the campalgu for putting Its program into effect an amendment to tbe sundry civil service bill was introduced by a congressman from Minnesota wltb the purpose of putting a stop to the work so admirably begun. Congress pa&sed the amendment. It deserves tbe confidence and support of every citizen interested In the wise development and preservation ot our natural resources and In prevent lng them from passing into tbe bands of uncontrolled monopolies. It Join

wltb the national conservation congress in holding this meeting. I am here by tbe Joint invitation of bothState and Federal Control. But. while we of the United States are anxious as I believe we are able to be of assistance to others, there are problems of our own which we must not overlook. One of the most important conservation questions of tbe moment relate to the control of water power monopoly In the public in terest. There la apparent to the Judlciouf observer a distinct tendency on tin part of our opponents to cloud the is sue by raising the question of state a against federal Jurisdiction. We an ready to meet tbat issue It if is forced upon us. But there Is no hope for tbf plain people in such conflicts of. Jnrl diction. The essential question Is not one ot balr splitting legal technicalities. It 1slmply this: Wbo can best regulate tbe special interests for tbe publl good? Most of the predatory corporation are interstate or have Interstate affili atlons; therefore they are largely out of reach of effective state control and fall of necessity within the federal Ju rlsdiction. One of the prime object of those among them tbat are grasp ing and greedy is to avoid any effec tive control either by state or nation and tbey advocate at this time state control simply because they believe it to be tbe least effective. In the great fight of tbe people to drive tbe special interests from tbe domination of our government tbe na tion is stronger and its Jurisdiction is more effective than that of any state. Tbe most effective weapon against these great corporations, most of which are financed and owned on the Atlantic coast, will be federal laws and tbe federal executive. Tbat is wby I so strongly oppose tbe demand to turn tbese matters over to the states. It Is fundamentally a demand against the interest of tbe plain people, of the people of small means, against the Interest of our children and our children'a children, and it is primarily In the Interest of tbe great corporations, wblcb desire to escape all government control. "' The Conservation Fight One of tbe difficulties In putting into practice the conservation idea is tbat the field to which it applies is con atantly growing In the public mind It has been no slight task to bring before 100.000.000 people a great conception like tbat of conservation and convince them tbat it Is right This much we bave accomplished But there remain much to be cleared up and manv misunderstanding tJe Hoy Fever dreaded.

retnoveO. i-aJt rs t a in due in part at least to direct misrepresentation by tbe men to whose interest It is tbat conservation should not prosper. ' . " -'- For example, we find It constantly said by men wbo should know better tbat temporary withdrawals, such as tbe withdrawals of coal lands, will permanently check development. Yet the fact is that these withdrawals have no purpose except to prevent tbe coal lands from pasaing into private ownership until congress can pass laws to open tbem to development under conditions Just alike to tbe public and to tbe men wbo will do the developing. If there is delay the responsibility for it rests not on the men wbo made tbe withdrawals to protect tbe public Interest, but on those who prevent congress from passing wise legislation and so putting an end to tbe need for withdrawals. . We have a right to congratulate ourselves on this marvelous progress. But there is no reason for believing that the fight Is won. In tbe beginning the special interests, who are our chief opponents in tbe conservation fight, paid little heed to the movement because they neither understood it nor saw tbat if it. won they might lose. But with the 'progress of conservation in the miuds of our people tbe fight Is getting sharper. The nearer we approach to victory the bitterer the opposition that we must meet and the greater the need for caution and watchfulness. Open opposition we can overcome, but 1 warn you especially against the men who come to co tigresses such as this, ostensibly aa disinterested citizens, but actually as tbe paid agents of the special interests. I heartily approve the attitude of any corporation, interested in the deliberations of a meeting such as this, which comes hither to advocate by its openly accredited agents views which It believes tbe meeting should bave in mind. But I condemn with equal readiness tbe appearance of a corporate agent before any convention wbo does not declare himself frankly as such. This congress Is a direct appeal to the patriotism of our whole people. Tbe nation wisely looks to such gatherings for counsel and leadership. Let that leadership be sound, definite, practical and on the side of all tbe people, it would be no small misforture if a meeting such as this should ever fall Into the bands of tbe open enemies or false friends of the great movement which it represents. What this country needs is what every free country must set before It as the great goal toward which it works an equal opportunity for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for every one of its citizens. To achieve this end we must put a stop to tbe improper political dominion no less than tbe Improper economic dominion of tbe great special Interests. This country. Its natural resources. Its natural advantages. Its opportunities and its Institutions belong to all its citizens. They cannot be enjoyed . fully and freely under any, government in which the special interests as such have a voice. The supreme political task of our day, Jbe indispensable condition of national efficiency and national welfare Is to drive tbe 'special interests out of our public life.

HOT A RAP HANDED TAPT BY COLOHEL (Continued From Page One.) subvert the real purposes of the organization. . H. C. SMITH'S ADDRESS. , Speaking on the subject of water power, HerBert Knox Smith, United States Commissioner of Corporations, said, in part, aa follows: The scope of the Federal jurisdiction is of first importance, because tho water power problem is. in the main, a national one. Much of the power is transmitted across state lines or is used by interstate carriers, the bulk of the capital that is developing our most Important powers comes from interests outside the states where the powers are located, and from the brief survey I have already given of the interrelationships existing between public service companies it is obvious that state lines and state jurisdiction have no practical relation whatsoever to the sweep of these forces. . The hydro-electric business has been largely nationalized by those who are foremost in it. Tbe Nation and the State will have to use their full powers to meet tbe water power situation. The most effective time to use them Is before, not after, private rights accure. The one certain method ia for the State or the Federal Government, to retain its interest, or impose its conditions, at the inception, aa a part of the grant Then public control and private rights go together, as tbey must If we are to safeguard the public interest in water power. Let there be no unnecessary mampering of hydro-electric development but let the public be in on the ground floor at the start, for at the start the public must grant the power and for all time the public will be the party chiefly interested in its use. For Public's Interest. Specifically: (1) The status quo of powers still controlled by the Nation or State ahbuld be maintained until we know what we have, and can act intelligently thereon. (2) No grant should be made except for a fixed period, with at least the reserved right to readjust terms at the end thereof. That period, however, should be long -enough to permit adequate financing and complete development (3) Complete publicity of accounts and transactions should be required aa well aa a record of cost and the real relation of investment to stock and bond issues. (4) Power to revoke the grant for breach of conditions should be lodged in a specified public authority. Otherwise there will always he the nosst-

bility of protracted litigation to determine the status. 'T"V-;v (5) So far aa possible, direct provision should be made against excessive charges 'and monopolistic abuse. (6) Public authorities should reserve such constitutional compensation or rental as will e Etablisb the principle of underlying public interest (7) All public easements of navigation, fisheries, etc., should be safeguarded. (8) . In tbe case of new grants, all these provisions should be made conditions of tne grant Finally, the purpose and probable affect on the public of any grant should first - be fuHy ascertained and carefully considered, in order to determine whether . public Interest Justifies beyond a reasonable doubt the surrender by tbe public of even a part of its power over jthis -great public .resource. Where reasonable doubt exists, the status quo should be -maintained.

PROTESTANTISM ft FAST DIG CREED Is Startling Statement Made at Eucharist Congress at Montreal.

MUST STOP RACE SUICIDE AMONG THEIR OWN PEOPLE, DECLARED REV. VAUGH ANTHE HOST IS TO BE CARRIED THROUGH THE STREETS. (American Nwa Service.) Montreal. Sept 6. "Protestantism is dying out and before long the last vestige of it will have disappeared. It the protestants wish to conserve their own religion they must work diligently to abolish race suicide among their own people." This was the startling statement in a lecture of the Rev. Barnard Vaugban of London, a notetd Jesuit priest, before the Eucharist congress meeting today, to which the general public had been invitetd. Archbishop Brucher of Montreal also caused a aensatlon with bis lecture on "Montreal, the Rome of the New World." The congress will be formally started with the magnificent reception to Cardinal Vannutelli, the Papal legate, tonight in historic St. James cathedral where there will be assembled some of the foremost churchmen in the world. - ' To Carry the Hoat. This reception, a spectacle the like of which has never before been seen in Canada, or probably in all America, which began tbe events of the six days' program ranks second only to the procession through the city s streets next Saturday, when the host will be borne before an army of the devout. Among those taking important parts in the events are archbishop Heylen, Archbishop Glennon of St Louis, and Archbishop O'Connell of Boston. Special services were held today in the chapel wbich mayor Guerln has had constructed adjoining his home. The attitude of the British authorities here is of particular interest in view of England's stand in 1908, when the congress was held in London. Then the premier forebade the carrying of the Host through tbe streets, on the grounds that it would cae.se a hostile demonstration. It is noteworthy, however, that Cardinal Vincenzo Vannutelli was received cordially in England on his way here, in spite of a statute forbidding the entrance into Great Britain of papal legates. He was. the first of that rank to enter the island in 30Q years. SHE DIED III EAST Mrs. Emily W. Chandlee, widow of the late Webster Chandlee, died Mon day at Philadelphia, where she has been living for tbe last few years. The body will be brought to Richmond for burial.
