But unofficial and recent as it is, and informal. in its manner of working, it hi nevertheless an pregnant with possibilities for organization doing good. The governors conference finds the reason .for its existence fcn the advisability, if not the ."necessity, of uniform policies among the states jwbefi confronted by certain important and similar problems; and aleo in the desirability of Uniform methods among the states in working ' out some of these policies. It is one of th6 praiseworthy features of a federation .that each states is able to nest its pf the forty-eigindividual problems In Its own wuy. Bnt even ibis elasticity may at times be source of more or less annoyance. Hence sprang the confer' ence of governors. ,' Necessarily a body of. great Influence, and ne with important duties to perform, it owes ' W hatever effectiveness it has to the ability and influence ef its own personnel. In this conference are assembled the group leaders of the pation. in a sense it is a Yfcore remarkable odf than the United States Senate, to which many of its members have graduated and pill graduate. There are two senators from each slate, but only one governor. Moreover, brilliance of intellect may send a man to the United Slates Senate, but when the people are choosing their governors, they demand not only progressive ideas, but also. executive ability, and above all high ideals with regard to justice and rifhL It ii to he hoped that Governor Bamberger and Msyor Ferry will have some very nice things to ssy to the governors when they'as- oemble hi the Tabernacle this evening.

It require no more brain tnan a bumble- bees to hat a Negro or a Japanese. Itla an exudation of the oldest and mean-epoison In human blood, the poison of Class. Whenever you hate a Class or are proud of a Class you have descended to the level of the mule, th anob and the flunkey. It was Class pride and prejudice that 'ruled the Junkers of Germany1 and thua started the greatest war of all time;' it is the same dirty-spir- it that lay at tha bottom of the war of 1M1; it la th asm spirit that cause all th trouble between Capital and Labor, that baa mads all th Religious Ructions of history, that ' creates scandal in tha Army, that splits Churches, . embitter Politic, corrupts Society and make 'criminal classes, male dude and femal. for MANY of the state are still hesitating, one reason or another, about convening special sessions of their legislature lot the purpose of acting upon the Congressionalesplu-tio- n proposing a Constitutional amendment extending the right of suffrage to tfbrnen. Like all other amendments to the Constitution, this' proposition requires the ratification of the leg- of the statesthat islatures of is, thirty-si- x legislatures must approve it before it can become a part of the fundamental charter or law of the land. CJiampions of the equal suffrage cause express no doubt that at least his nlimber of states will ratify in the regular (course of things, but they do not feet like waiting until the next regular session of the legislature in case where postponement woufik deter action on the amendment until after the national election in 19tJ0, and would thus debar the women of the nation, in state where equal suffrage is not already provided f&r, from voting for the next President of ' the UniledjBtate, Senator Reed Smoot is one of those who are In favor of immediate ratification. On the front or cover page of the August 9 issue of the Maryland Suffrage News, a weekly publication of Baltimore, Md, he is thus quoted In large type: There is no question as to tjie nrgenf necessity for ,-ratification by extra session this summer- in order that women may -register and vote this fall" in important municipal elections, and next year in State and municipal elections. The need for ex- tra sessions of State legislatures is all the more pressing, because so many legislatures do not meet In regular session until 1921. .If ratification is postponed until it comes up at regular legislative sessions, women will not be permitted in many of the States to exercise the ballot at the next Presidential election. I assure you that I am heartily In favor of extra sessions of the legislature In all SUtos whero-theead possibly-b- e held this summer, and If I can do anything to assist hi securing ah extra session of the legislature of my own home State of Utah, it will five me pleasure. Utah, in fact, should be especially ready to perform the service of ratification in time to be of material help to women voters for the reason that, while " Utah shared with Wyoming the honor of . initiating suffrage in the United Stales, (Utah is entitled to the first honors, since women first voted in Utah, although the vote was authorized a few months earlier in Wyoming than in Utah for a restricted class of school elections. The suffrage idea from Us first mountain home is indeed spreading to both sea-- 7 coasts and to the nations ends. I trust that the necessary votes of ratification will be obtained this summer."

The Block of hay in th? possession of the federal and slate authorities In Jackson Valley is 25 per cent above normal; but up to this time, many of the elk have wintered upon the pastures and of the settlers. This year, the pastures are in poor condition, tha hay-slac-ks scanty, and the settlers confronted with the necessity for utilizing every pound of forage available in order to winter their domestic stock. Under such circumstances a bad winter will result in a very heavy death loss of elk. It ie too late to hppe for any great improvement in the pastures this year, but it is not too late to hope for a mild winter; and with the present price of coal, this is something that the people can hope and pray for on their own poor account, as well as on that of the lordly monarch of the glens. - A hay-stac- ng ks A pr , BIG The Lumbermen AcidStomach Makes 9 Out of - 10 boeton Oeelara that nor than 76 boo ortanie Olata.ea can b. tracd to Btarttn with tndlMtoo, betrt-- , bum. belching, bloat, aour, gawr Mom.cb. the .otir aratem eventually Deonaa aOected.avery vital organ aoflenng aae degree or other.
