The Incident was greatly am-Ming to t!-.e presitfent. Report I aaalBeatlr Adopted. Governor Folk look on anion to express t:ie lieriefit he rail received from the con ference ana Skid he believed it had ac loir.j i)n-d int. of good. At thla pciint Governor Gler.n arose and acUng, a he said, upon the uf f tnkm of the governor ul Kentucky, whom he had found to be a very wise man, wanted to withdraw his motion a.nti.ding the declaration, lie added : Probably we will never have a little man for president." Thia treated delight among the governors. President Roosevelt before putting the decimation to a vote said he thought thai any president needed only fhe information that a conference of governors would be agreeable to the governors as an inFplra tlon to call one. The report was then adopted, no absenting voices being heard. The full text of thia declaration of prin ciples i as follows: We. tne gjvernors of the states and ter laonri ol the I niied States ot America, in conference assembled, do hereliy declare l ue C'liviLiion that tue great proeperliy of our country rests upon the abundant re source of the land chosen by our fore Jathin fur their home, and where they laid the foundation of thia great nation.

We sirree In the wisdom of future con ferences lietween the president, members of congress and the povrrnorn of the states regarding the conservation of our natural resources with the vi-w of continued oper ation aad action on the lines suggested. And to this end we edvlse that from time to lime, as in his Jjtlcment may seem wise, the president call the governors of the ststes. members of ccrigress and others into conference. rBsmlMloBi la Earh State. We agree that further action Is advisable to ascertain the present condition of our natural resourcts afid to promote the con servation of ihe same. And to that end we recommend the appointment by each state of a commission on conservation of iatural resources, to co-operate with each other and with any commission, on behalf of the federal government. We urge the continuation arid extension of forest policies adapted to secure the husbendmg and renewal of our diminishing timebr supply, the prevention of eoi. eroFion. the protection oi lead waters, and the maintenance of the purity and navigability of our streams. We recognige that tb private ownership of forest lands lends responslblinies 1n the Interest of all the people, and we favor the enactment of lawp kK king to the protection at d replacement of privately o ned forests. Yalaable Aaaet la Water. We recognise In our waters a most val uable asset of the people of the United Ptates and we recommend the enactment of lane ld'.kir.g to the conservation of water resources lor irrigation, water supply, power arid navigation, to the end that nav igable and source streams may be brought under complete control and fully utilised for every purpt.se. Ws especially urge upon the federsl congress the immediate adoption of a wise, active snd thorough waterway policy, providing for the prompt Improvement of our streams and conserva tion of their water sheda required for the use of commerce and the protection of the Interests of our people. We recommend the enactment of laws looking to the prevention of waate In the mining and extraction of coal. oil. gas and other minerals with a view to their w-tse conservation and use by the people and to the protection of human life in the mines. Let ua conserve the foundation of our prosperity. Mr. Bryan "was then Introduced by the president and beg-an his addresa. Speech at Mr. Bryaa. Mr. Bryan acknowledged his obligations to the president for vhe opportunity of par ticipating in an historic event of thia mag nitude. The discussion has already, be said, htlped define the proper sphere of national and state control. He said he waa Jealous of any encroachment upon the rights of the state, but it waa entirely con sistent with his theory to believe that it was Just aa imperative that tha general governmen should discharge the duties dele gated to It as it was that the state should air the powers reserved to thero. "There is no twilight gone between the nation and the slate," contiiued Mr. Bryan, In whicn exploiting Interests can take ref uge from both and my observation Is that mtiai not all. but most of the contentions over the line between nation and state are treat-cable to prtdatory corporal iona, which are trying: to shield themselvea from de served punisnnxnt or endeavoring to pre vent needed restraining legislation," Mr. Bryan said we should not only pre serve tha nation's resources for future gn erations, but should see to It that theae were not mmopoliwd by a few of the peo ple and future generations should not be fettered with perpeul franchises. Coal. Iron and timber cn the free list would tend to reduce the waste and exploitation of our own measures. Mr. Br)n said Mr. Hill bad rendered a real service In pointing out the impairment of the crop value of our soil, which should lead to a still further enlargement of the work of the IV-partment of Agriculture and closer co-operation be tween H tnd the states.

Crook Town is not one of the smitten places to join In this request, however; It says it needa no out side aid. The relief work is progressing with gratifying results and Omaha Is lend ing its assistance generously. The Bellevue relief oommlttee compiled the items of Immediate- need and decided to make a formal request for tli.OOO. This amount is far from the sum necessary to bring about complete relief, but Is the amallest sum which will meet the imperl t!ve necessities. In order to raise thia aum' quickly the mayors of Omaha and 6outh Omaha were appealed to in the following cemmunication presented Friday morning: The Bellevue relief committee haa. after a personal exsminstion, made a careful' and conservative estlmste of the needs of the recent tornado sufferers of this com munity.

Guild of the Commercial club, who took steps Fri day afternoon to apply some of the money where it was needed the worst. It Is said that the n-ed at Louiavllle Is Immediate and before Saturday morning some Omaha money will be doing good service In the town which suffered from the tornado. Grain dealers of Omaha began securing subscriptions Friday afternoon when their eorresiiond nts near and at Louisville made known the fact that financial aid was needed by many people In the town who made homeless by the storm. They raised yi5 in less than an hour. Mayor Frank Koutsky of South Omaha issued a proclamstion to the people of South Omaha at once. Mayor Dahlman, who did not receive the call until late, expressed a desire to do all in his power to help. The entire committee waited on both mayors. Bellevae Caller Active. The greatest activity In the line of repair is spparent at the college. The represents-J tlve of the lnsursnce company, Mr. Fatridge. haa taken charge of the repair of the roof of Lowrle hall.

The right to haul away the carcasses of desd animals in Omaha is sgain to be re viewed by the courts. James Whelen Fri dsy asked the district court for sn Injunc tion to prevent Charles Daniels and the City Garbage company from butting" in" on what he clalma is his ei elusive right to the bodies of all dead animals in the city not killed for food. May It, 1&"7, he says the council entered into a contract with him for three years giving him the right to haul and dispose of the defunct animals. He says the police judge has decided the ordinance under J which the contract was made is invalid l and will not act under it. He asks the in- j junction be kept in force until 1914, when his contract expires. Practically the same litigation was gone threugrh with a year ago in district court and at the close of the trial the case wa transferred to the federal court. The value of the bodies of dead animals in Omaha is said to be sev eral thousand dollars a year, making the exclusive right to haul and dispose of them a valuable one.

City Boiler Inspector Wolfe hsa Interested the Commercial club and the Real Estate exchange In bis campaign to secure the next convention of the International As sociation of Master Boilermakers for Omaha, and la now preparing a plea for assistance to the mayor and council. The boiler inspector wants the council to make a email appropriation to assist In defraying hia expenses at ths coming convention that he may present the claims cf Omaha, and he has asked the Commercial club and the Real Estate exchange for advertising booklets to give the delegates. This year's convention of the boiler- makers meets in Detroit, Msy !S. 17 and a and numbers among its members holler makers from all parts of the United Btalea, Canada and Mexico. The National Associa tion of Railroad Supply Men meet with ths bollermakers.
