SESSIONS OF CONSERVATION MEET MR.

AND MRS. R. VON TOBEL HEAR SOME GREAT ADDRESSES IN ST. PAUL. Mr.

and Mrs. R. von Tobel returned last Tuesday from St. Paul, where they spent a week in attendance at the National Conservation Congress, to which Mr. von Tobel was a delegate from this state.

"It was one of the greatest gatherings of great men ever held in the nation," said Mr. von Tobel, to the Democrat. "The congress was graced by the presence of President Taft, I ex-President Roosevelt and scores of others whose names are household words among the American people. I There were a number of addresses made, any one of which were well 1 wortli a trip to St. Paul and return, to hear.

I was struck by the difference between President Taft and Mr. Roosevelt as platform speakers. Taft is judicial, though forceful, logical and i comparatively calm, even though greatly in earnest. Roosevelt, on the other hand, is gesticulative and veliement almost to the extreme. It seems that he fairly fires his sentences at his audience and means to make them believe what he is saying whetlier they wish to or not.

Francis J. Heney, the noted California attorney, was, to my way of thinking, about the greatest orator of the number who appeared on the program. Pinj chot makes no pretense at oratory, but it was plain to see that he was in deadly earnest while presenting his views of the great question of con; servation. "While all present favored servation of our natural resources, there developed a difference of opinion as to whether this shall be done by the various states acting in dependently or the national govern ment. The greater number of the speakers favored the government idea, I although several big men from the West, including Governor Norris, of Montana, and Governor Hay, of Washington, eloquently voiced the contentions of the state righters, as they are called."
