Henceforth we. must seek national effi
ciency by a new and a better way, by the
way of the orderly 'development and use,
coupled with the preservation, of our na
tional resources, t.y making the most of
what w have 'for 'the. benefit of all of us.
Instead of. leaving the swuc.es of material
prosperity open-to Indiscriminate exploita
tion. These ave some of the .reasons why
It Is wise that we should "abandon the old
point of view." and 'wtfy--conservation has
become a patriotic duty. '
Waterways,
"One of the greatest ot our conservation
problems is the wise development and use
of the waterways of this nation. The Twin
Cities, lying, as. they doat the headwaters
ot the Mississippi, af not upon the direct
line of the proposed Lakes to the Gulf
ieep Waterway. Yet they are deeply in
terested In Its prompt completion, as well
as in the deepening and regulation nf the
Mississippi to the mouth of the MiHsourl
and to the Gulf. The, project for a great
trunk waterway, an'-a'rrjt to the sea, ex
tending from the Quit of Mexico to the
Great Lakes,, should not be . abandoned.
The iJikea to ,the Cfulf4,- I)eep Waterway,
and the development '.of the rivers which
flow Into it,' should be .pushed to completion
vigorously and wHthont delay. Dut we must
recognize at the outset that there are cer
tain conditions . without which the people
cannot hope to derive from It the benefits
they have a 'right te" expect. -
"In marly every cltSr-fre-nT t. Paul jto the
Gulf the water front'- lx controlled by the
railways. Neatly' every artificial waterway
In the United.: States, either directly or in
directly Is under-tlte .aame' control. It goes
without saying that 4irils the. people pre
vent It in advance, -tbe'4-allways will at
tempt to tske control of our waterways as
fast as they are. improved and completed;
nor would I blame them if we, the people,
are supine In; the -matter. We mut see
to It that adequate .-terminals are provided
p every city amJiSd1 A every Improved
waterway, terminals open tinder reasonable
conditions to the use of every cltUen, end
rightly protected .against monopoly; and
we must compel the railways to co-operate
with the waterway continually,, effectively
and under reasonable conditions. Unless
we do so, the -railway lines will refuse to
deliver freight- to tho boat lines, either
openly or by imposing prohibitory condi
tions, and the waterways, once improved,
will do comparatively little for the benefit
of the people who pay the bill."
"Adequate terminals properly controlled
and open througti.tflneit by Tall and boat are
:o absolutely nnthil conditions to the
usefulness of Inland waterwuy development.
believe furthermore that the railways
ihould' be " prohibited from owning, con
trolling, or ; carrying" any Interest In the
Mat lines' oh Vu. rlvsrs, unless under the
urlctest regulation, and control of the
Inter State" Commerce Commission, so that
.ho shippers' interests may ; be fully pro-'
acted. ; .'' -t ' t
The Satlenai Forests
. "The people at the- United States believe
In the complete .and pounded -development
of Inland waterways for all the useful
purposes they ear-.' be made to serve. They
Relieve also in forest protection .and forest
extension. The? .fight for our national for
gets In the west has-Jbeen won. After a
campaign In which the Women ot Minnesota
did work which should secure to them the
perpetual gratitude of their state, Min
nesota won Its national, forest, and will
keep it; but the fight to create the south
ern Appalachian and White mountain for
ests in the eust Is not yet over. The bill
has passed the j bouse, and will come Lie
fine the senate for a, vol next February.
The people of the United States, regardless
of party , or section, should stand solidly
behind it, and sue that their representatives
. do likewise.
"If any proof were needed that forest pro
tection Is a national duty, the recent de
struction ot forests In the west by tiro
would supply It. Even with the did ot the
army added to"that of the forest' service
the loss has been severe- Without either
It would have bet-n vastly greater;
"But the forest service does more than
protect tho national forests against fire. It
makes them practically and increasingly
useful as well. During the hut year for
which 1 have the figures, the national for
ests were used) by t,0W cattlemen, with
their herds; 6JW0 -.sheepmen, with their
flocks; S.Ouu tliabnrmen. wlilf their crews,
and 46,0c0 miners. 'More than 5,1X0 persons
used them for., (jther special Industries.
N.arly 3(.0o0 st-ttters had the free use of
wood. The total resident population of the
national forests Is about a quarter ot a
million, which is larger than the popula
tion of certain"tatcs. " More than WO.nOO
acres of agricultural land have been pat
ented or listed for patent within the for
tsts, and the reports f the lereat officers
show that more than eflO.Ouu people a year
use the forests for evfatl6n, camping,
hunting, fUhliifi.-fiod 'similar, purposes. All
this is done, of course, without Injury to
the timber, which has a value ot at least
t thousand million dollars I
"Moreover, the national forests protect
the water supply ot a thousand cities and
towns, about sou Irrigation projects and
nore than tuo power projects, not counting
the use of water tor these and oilier pur
poses by individual settlers. I think that
aereatter we may safely disregard any
Itatements that , Vt vallopal forests are
withdrawn from settlement and use.
A fssstrr ! Institute.
"The investigations of the country life
commission hsve led the farmers of this
country to realise that they have not been
getting their fair share ot progress and
all that It brings. Some of our farming
communities In Ihe Jdjsai&alppt valley and
In the middle west have made marvelous
progress, yet eeaa the best of them, l.ke

be done In some other sections to Improve
country Ufa As yet we know compara
tively little of the basic facta of rural
civilization. The means for better farming
we have studied with care, but to better
living on the farm and to better business
on the farm the farmers themselves have
given scant attention. One of the most
urgent needs of our civilisation Is tiiat
the farmers themselves should undertake
to get for themselves a better knowl
edge along these lines, and then to apply
It. Sir Hoiace Plunkett, for many years
a Wyoming cattleman, and now devoting
himself in Ireland to the country life
problem there, has suggested in his recent
bouk on the "Country Life Problem In
America" the creation of a country life
Institute as a center where the work and
knowledge of the whole world, concerning
country life, may be brought together for
the use of every nation. I am strongly In
sympathy with this idea, and I hope to
see It carried out with the co-operation
and assistance of our own people. Last
spring, while visiting the capital of Jlun
gary, Budapesth, I was Immensely Im
pressed by the museum of country life,
containing an extraordinary series of
studies In agriculture, in stock raising, In
forestry. In mining; the exhibits were of
the utmost practical Importance and' were
also intensely lnterestingamd instructive.
I greatly wish we had Such a museum In
Washington; and some of your farmer con
gressmen ought to get a full and detailed
report of the Budapesth museum to be
printed for distribution in a public docu
ment. Hainan Efficiency.
"As a people we have not yet learned
to economize. One of the virtues we
Americans most need is thrift. It is a
mere truism to ray that luxury and ex
travagance are not good for a nation.
So far as they affect character, the loss
they cause may be beyond computation.
But in the material sense there Is a loss
greater than Is caused by both ex
travagance and luxury put together. I
mean the needless, useless, and exces
sive loss to our people from premature
death and avoidable disease. Wholly apart
from the grief, the suffering, and the
wretchedness which they cause, the ma
terial loss each year has been calculated
at nearly twice what It costs to run the
federal government. In addition to the
state and city health officers arid organiza
tions, there Is urgently needed ' a federal
bureau of health, to act, so .'ar as the na
tional government properly may, to relieve
our people.
National Conservation Commission.
"One of the most Important meetings in
our recent history was that of the gov
ernors in the White House, in May, 1903,
to consider the conservation question. By
the advise of the governors the meeting
was followed by the appointment of a na
tional conservation commission. The meet
ing of governors directed the attention of
the country to conservation as nothing else
could have done, while the work ot the
commission gave the movement definlteness
and supplied It with a practical program.
But at the moment when the commission
was ready to begin the campaign for put
ting its program Into effect an amendment
to the sundry civil service bill was intro
duced by a congressman from Minnesota
with the purpose of putting a stop to the
work so admirably begun. - Congress passed
the amendment. Its object was to put an
end to the work of a number ot com
missions,, which had been appointed by the
president, and whose contribution to the
public welfare had been simply lncalcuable.
Among these were the commission for re
organising the business methods of the gov
ernment, the public lands commission, the
country life commission and the national
conservation commission Itself. When I
ylgned the sundry civil service bill, con
tains; this amendment, I transmitted with
it as my last official act a memorandum
declaring that the amendment was void,
because it was an unconstitutional inter
ference with the rights of the executive,
and that if I were to remain president I
would pay to It no attention whatever.
"The National Conservation commission
thereupon became dormant The suspen
slon of its work came at a most unfor
tunate time, and there was serious danger
that the progress already made would be
loi-t. At thin critical moment the National
Conservation association was organised.
It took up the work which otherwise would
noi nave ueen done, and It exercised a most
useful Influence In preventing bad legisla
tion, In securing the Introduction of better
conservation measures at the last session
of congress, and In promoting the pasiage
of wise laws. It deserves the confMunee
and support of every oltisen Interested In
the wise development and preservation of
our national resources, and in preventing
them from passing Into the hands of un
controlled monopolies. It Joins with the
National Conservation congress In holding

Pan-American Cmteerrat Ion.
w hen the government of the United
States awoke to the Idea of the conseiva-
tlon and saw that It was. good. It lost no
time In communicating the advantages of
the new point of view to Its ImmedUte
neighbors among the ' nations. . A North
American Conservation congress was held
in v asiunglon, and the co-ope.aiion of
Canada and Mexico In the great problem
of developing the resources of the .continent
for the benefit of Its people was asked and
promised. The nations upon our northern
and southern boundaries wisely realised
that their opportunity to conserve the nat
ural resources was better than ours, be
cause with them destruction and monop
olisation had not gone so far as thev had
with us 80 It Is with the republics of
Central and South America. Obviously
they are on the verge of a period of great
material progress. The development of
their natural resources their forests, their
mines, their water and their soils will
create enormous wealth. It is to the mut
ual interest or the United states and our
sinter American republics that this devel
opment should be wisely done. Our manu
facturing Industries offer a market for
more and more ot their natural wealth .and
rVW"7l
rsw material, while they will Increasingly
deflre to meet that demand In commercial
exchange. .The more we buv from them,
the more we shall sell to them. Their
prosperity Is Inseparably Involved with our
own. Thank Heaven, we of this continent
are now beginning to realise what, in the
end, the whole world will realise, that
normally It is a good thing for a nstlon
to hsve Its neighbor nations prosper. We
of the t'nlted States are genuinely and
heartily pleased to see growth and pros
perity of Canada, In Mexico, In South
America.
"It is clear thst unless the governments
nf our southern neighbors take steps in the
near future by wise legislating to control
the development and use of their natural
resources they will probably fall Into the
hands of concessionaires and promoters,
whose single purpose, without regsrd to

I they work, will be to make the most pos
I slhle money In the shortest possible time.
I There will be a shameful wests, destruc
tive loss and short-sighted disregard of
the future, as we have learned by bitter
experience here at home.
"Unless the governments of all the Amer
ican republics, including our own, enact
In time, such laws as will both protect their
natural wealth and promote their legiti
mate and reasonable development, future
generations will owe their misfortunes to
us of today. A great patriotic duty calls
upon us. We owe It to ourselves and to
them to give the American republics all
the help we can. The cases in which we
have failed should be no less instructive
than the oases in which We have suc
ceeded. With prompt action and good will
the task of saving the resources for the
people is full of hope for all of us.
"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 the moment relates to the
control of water power monopoly In the
Public Interest. There Is apparent to the
Judicious observer a distinct tendency on
the part of our opponents to cloud the is
sue by raising the question of state as
against federal Jurisdiction. We are ready
to meet that issue if it Is forced upon us.
But there is no hope for the plain people
In such conflicts of Jurisdictions. The es
sential question In not one of hair-splitting
legal technicalities. It Is simply this: Who
can best regulate trie special Interests of
the public good? Most of the predatory
corporations are Interstate or have Inter
state affiliations. Therefore they are
largely out of reach of effective state con
trol, and fall of necessity within the federal
Jurisdiction. One of the prime objects of
those among them that are grasping and
greedy Is to avoid any effective control
either by state or nation; and they advo
cate at this time state control Btmply be
cause they believe It to be the least ef
fective. In the great fight of the people
to drive the special interests from the do
minion of our government, the nation is
stronger and its Jurisdiction Is more ef
fective than that of any state. The most
effective weapon against these great cor
porations, most of which are financed and
owned on the Atlantic coast, will be fed
eral laws and the federal executive. That
is why I so strongly oppose the demand
to turn these matters over to the states.
It Is fundamentally a demand against the
Interest of the plain people, of the people
of small meew. against the interest of
our children and our children's children;
and It Is prlmsrlly in the Interest of the
great corporations which desire to escape
all government control.
t'onaerratlnn Flnht.
"One of the difficulties In putting Into
practice Ihe conservation Idea Is that the
field to which It applies Is constantly
growing In the public mind. It has been
no slight task to bring before 90.OCO.npo
people a great conception like that of con
servation, and ronvlm-e them that It Is
right. This much we have accomplished.
Hut there remains much to be cleared up,
and many misunderstandings to be ' re
moved. These misunderstandings are due
In part, at least, to direct misrepresenta
tion by the men to whose Interest It Is
that conservation ahonld not prosper. For
example, we find It constantly said by men
who should know belter that temporary
withdrawals, such as the withdrawals of
coal lands, will permanently check develop
ment. Yet the fact is that these with
drawals have no purpose except to prevent
the coal lands from pausing Into private
ownership until congress can pass laws to
open them to development under conditions
Just alike to the public- and to the men
who will do the. developing. If there Is de
lay, the responsibility for It rests, not on
the men who made the withdrawals to pro
tect the public interest, but on those who
prevent congress . from passing wise legis
lation, .and so putting an end to the need
for withdrawals. . ,
"Abuses committed In the name of a Just
cause are familiar to all of us. Many un
wise things are done and many unwise
measures are advocated In the name of
conservation, either through Ignorance or
by those whose Interest lies not In promot
ing the movement,- but In retarding It. For
example, to stop-water power development
by needless refusal to Issue permits for
water power or private" Irrigation works
on the public lands inevitably leads many
men friendly to conservation and believers
In its general principles to assume that Its
practical application Is necessarily a check
upon progress. Nothing could be more mis
taken. The Idea, widely circulated of late,
that conservation means locking up the
natural resources for the exclusive use of
latpr generations Is wholly mistaken. Our
purpose Is to make full use of these re
sources, but ' to consider our sons and
daughters as well as ourselves; Just as a
farmer uses his farm in 'ways to preserve
Its future usefulness.. Conservation Is the
road to national efficiency, and it stands
for ample and wipe development.
"What this country needs Is what every
free country must set before It as the great
goal toward which it works an equal op
portunity for. life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness for every one of Its citizens.
To achieve this end we must put a stop to
the improper political dominion no less
than to the Improper ecnomolc dominion of
the great special interests. This country,
its natural resources, Its' natural advant
ages, Its opportunities, its institutions,
belong to alt its 'citizens They cannot be
enjoyed fully and freely under any govern
ment in which the special Interests, as
such, have a voice. .The supreme political
task of our day, the Indispenslble condition
of national efficiency and national welfare,
Is to drive the special Interests out of our
public life."

a quantity had been discovered after the
parts had been burled for months, the
physician was able to say that several

On January 19. said Mr. Humphreys.
Crlppen purchased five grains of hydro
bromide of bryoscln, a poison of such char
acter that the person to whom It was ad
ministered would become unconscious al
most Instantly, though life might remain
for several hours.
Counsel did not suggest the want of
money as the motive for the crime, but did
say that the disappearance of Belle was a
fortunate thing for Crlppen from a mone

On January 2 the accused had pawned
Jewelry for which he received $400, and on
another day pawned other Jewels, receiv
