Governor Hughe last night presided over and made a speech at the firat session of the Eisteddfod, the annual big gather ing of the Welsh people of this section, (iovernor Hughe Midi "Let us tonight as we say goodbye to the year 1U07 and to the duties and responsibilities of the year 1908, resolve each for ourselves, by the cultivating that sense of honor and self respect without which all ele fails, to make poHde the realisation in this country of ours, all those things whlcn our father prized and to make citisenidiip in this country of great advantage and to mean wider importance and a fair equalisation of benefit than it has ever heretofore meant. "We often made the mistake of sup posing that government is everything. My friends government is what the men who govern put into It. Govern ment is a system. The character of ad ministration is that upon which the sue- cp iu of governmental system must de pend and the administration of govern ment will reflect the ideas 'which the community entertains in its ordinary business and that quality of character which it permit in the ordlnnry walks of life. You cannot expect men to be changed over any because they are chosen to office. They are human beings and will carry into office thoc ideas of their duties to their fellow men and those conceptions of what honor de mands which they have heretofore en tertained in their ordinary work. And the one thing that we need more than anything elite in this country is that feeling on the part of every citizen of self respect and devotion to the duties which his particular place in life de- ' volve upon him, so that neither friend ship nor a vh mice nor love of gain, por opportunity to promote amibtion will ever deflect him (from the course which his own conscience tells him u right. "Every man who is charged with the responsibilities of public office should feel his "duty is not to a boss or to a ring or even to a pnrty, except as that party serves the intercut of the entire people. "Mure than anything else we want to Mirge administration of all efforts to serve anv selfish interest, whether it is political or capitalistic. "The government is the government of the people, ifor all eopte and there should be no vesting or perversion in the interest of any pnrticiilur part of the people os opposed to the welfare of the whole."

PHOMI Mi REVOLUTIONIZE MEDICINE. Sound Vital Organs of Animals to be Placed in Man. CHICAGO, Jan. l.-Wedical science soon is to accomplish the transfer of sound vital organs and tissues from the lower animals to man. The substitution of healthy organs for the diseased parts of the human body wil be made possible through the new experimental surgery nd vivisection, and will revolutionize modern medicine. The successful trans- ( planting of arteries from one animal to another is the first step towards this end. These are the conclusions drawn by Prof. Simon Flexner of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in a paper on "Tendencies in Pathology, written by him for presentation to thj American Association for the 'Advance ment f Science, and read yesterday be for the Physiological Section of the So ciety at the University of Chicago by Prof. Ludvlg Hcktoen of the University. Prof. Flexncr's paper also contained 'ac counts of a series of experiments oa rates and mice performed by himself and his associates, leading to import ant discoveries concerning the biological conditions of tumor growth. Pathologi cal problems have 'been enormously af eetcd by recent experiments in vivisec tion, according to the New York scientist, . NEW TO-DAY ' The Commercial.
