{ I | | | { ST, PAUL WILL . GET CONGRESS Conservation Gathering Not to Go Elsewhere. — CONFERENCE T0 BE HELD Officers of Association Will Visit Min- nesota Capital the Latter Part of This Week to Discuss Details of Big Meeting in September—Local Board of Managers to Maintain a “Reason- able Attitude.” St. Paul, July 19.—A letter from Gifford Pinchot, which apparently clinches the conservation congress for St. Paul, was recelved by Hugh T. Halbert, president of the Roosevelt club. It was dated in Kansas City July 15 and mailed from the train by Mr. Pinchot en route to California. The body of it is typewritten, but in a postscript this sentence appears in Mr. Pinchot’s handwriting: “1 have since learned that it is O. K. for St. Paul. Now we must see that the friends of conservation are on hand.” This statement is taken to mean that Mr. Pinchot believes the “reason- able” attitude which Governor Eber- bart and the other representatives of the local board of managers who went to the Chicago conference assured the national officers they would maintain will remove all differences and result in the definite location of the big con- gress In St. Paul, Conference at St. Paul. The latter part of this week, prob- ably Friday, B. N. Baker, president’ -of the congress, and J. B. White, chairman of the executive committee, will arrive in this city to confer with Governor Eberhart. In reply to Mr. Baker’s telegram announcing this fact the governor sent the following mes- sage, in which assurance of the con- tinuance of the “reasonable attitude” of the local board was given: “Telegram received. I thank you sincerely. You may rely on our hearty co-operation and reasonable attitude. ‘Will be glad to meet you Friday.” Should Mr. Baker wire again and indicate a preference for Thursday Governor Eberhart will cancel an en- gagement at Willmar to meet the two national officers.
