Collins, who reached Council, Bluffs yesterduy morning. The mother was almost prostrate with grief over the tragic death of her son and several times expressed the hope that the persons responsible for his death would be brouhgt to justice, As far as the authorities made publle yesterday there ‘were no developments in the cade, although some are looked for when the grand jury reconvenes this morn- ing. City Sollcitor Clem F.

It is expected that the meetings of the house of governors will result in the || states coming into closer harmony, and that it will hasten the day when uniform legislation throughout the unfon will rob the contenders for more federal authority of thelr point.- Already the movement for uniformity, - especially in those instances where the laws of one state intimately touch the people of another state, such as negotiable instrument laws, divorce laws and warehouse recelpt laws, has bean widely extended, and It is expected that the recommendations of the house of gov- ernors will have welght with the various législatures, resulting in § further ex- tension of this movement. ‘The members of the civic federation had planned -to meet earlfer, but as soon as they heard that the governors were go- ing to meet at this time they coneluded to postpone their sessions In order to get in touch with them. They know that most of the governors will soon be writing mes- sages to the legislatures, and they ae glad of this opportunity to get their ideas be- fore the men who have the authority to make legislative recommendations. The clvic federation will be a truly representa- tive body. In Its deliberations labor will it beside capital, men of letters beside men of business and governors beside the governed. The Clvic Federation belleves that In these twentleth century times the states should no more live to themselves than do individuals, and that today all legislation should be bassed (n tHe Interest of the fam- lly of states, rather than to the advantage of single members of that family. It is argued that when may be, legally speak< ing, strictly state affairs, are, practically speaking, of as much interstate concern as those that are dealt with by congress itself. 1t is claimed that in many respects the common life of the country has grown to the point of needing uniform legislation by " | groups of states, If not by all the states. 1t is represented that conservation will re- main little more than a theory unless the states adopt uniform laws relating to for- estry, water-power and Irrigation. Like- wise, It Is urged that congress can enact anti-trust leglsiation and amend the Sher- man law untll its members' heads are as white as snow, and still it will fafl in its endeavor .unless tho state anti-trust laws are midde in econformity. The Interstate Cémmerce commission, it 1s asserted. can issue orders from now until doomsday, and still traffic conditions and financial mat- ters will_not be satisfactory unless the states adopt railroad regulation to conform with federal requirements. Banking circles want uniform banking laws, Insurance companles are begging for uniform Insurance laws, wholesale grocers und druggidts’ are appealiag for uniform pure_ tood laws, labor orgunizations are asking for gniform labor laws. The med- Yeal profession ts seeking uniformity of reg- istration and preservation of vital s.atls.ics, and automobilists are asking for uniform legisiation o the regulation of motor ve- hieles.” Ih“fact, ‘the whole business world 1s asking for uniform business laws In all the states. To consider this widespread desire for uniformity, and to promote it wherever teasible, 18 the main purpose of the meet- ing of the Civie Federation. It will there- fore fit perfectly Into the plans of the house ot governors. When the two bodles get through with their deliberations, and formulate their conclusions in definite res- olutions, it Is generally feit that a new cpoch In' Ameriean history will be begun, which will result in the states, separate commonwealths in theory, becoming one in practice, in o far as the important laws on thelr statute books are concerned. The plans of the house of governors and of the Civic Federation with reference to har- monious and uniforh legislation wiil dove- )| tail into the plans of the American Bar as- soclation, and altogether they will consti- tute one of the most formidable movements for a specific. purpose that the country has ever seen. | given kind of legislation have been brough so closely together, and whera thev ho- considered a subject from every viewpoint with the care that has characterized these meetings of the varied Interests which are affected by the rallroads. Uniformity of leflfll}k‘m has progressed #0 far that at least two important subjects of business law.are now covered by uni- form laws In thirty-six of the swies. 4 has been accomplished by the untiring weor, of the American Har assoclation, whicl may be sald to ba the ploneer in advocacy of uniform leglslation. Judge Alton B Parker, the democratio candidate for presi dent in 1904, who fs regarded as one of the best lawyers in the country, is at the hea¢ of the American Bar assoclation committee which is working to have a model divoret statute framed for the guidance of all th: states. Under the marriage laws as they now stand, a child may be legitimate i one state, but lllegitimate in another. Like wise, & man may 8o manipulate his marita felations by a change of residenec as to be the husband of two wives and not a big- amist, Few subjects have had a text book made in such a remarkable way ‘as that of con- servation.

But one of the outcomes of that conference was the publication of the proceedings ot the ‘meetings, to which the conferees seem to have brought everything that is known about conservation. Everything s dis- cussed, from the preservation of health to the conservation of Eecenic beauty, from the husbanding of the coal supply to the | saving of trees. ~Practically everything that is worth while In the new science is to be found in one velume, Yet it is not for sale at the book' storés.

There Will be a marked change In the personnal of the house of governors this ycar as compared with two years ago. The president of the United Slates will be a ditterent person, and’ twenty-seven of tha forty-six states have, clianged administra tlons in the two years. At the 1903 mes ing one of the governors remarked tat many of those who participated then would not do so-again, buf/he was hardly pre- pared for the, great. number of changes that have occurred; This vear the meet- ing will be held. with, the conspieuous ab sence *0f Governor'dohn A: Johnson, who vas a favorite With”many for the demo- cratfc nomination for, president.

The it ferences of opinion between Secretary Bal- linger and Mr. Pinchot are shared by the governors, and the whole matter is likely to be fully threshed out.
