Washington County News G R E A T E S T IN H IS T O R Y . G re a t C o n fe re n c e to Be Held a t White H o u se in J u n e . W ashington, April 28.—W hen Preai- ent Roosevelt calls to order the opening session of the great White House con­ ference on May 13, there will be g a th ­ ered in the East Boom of the Execu­ tive Mansion the most notable assem­ blage of men in the public eye th a t has ever met in the history of the United States. The governors of all the states have signified their intention of being pres­ ent at this eonferenee, and each will bring w ith him three men, carefully chosen from among the learned of his state, to act as advisers in the conven­ tion. Besides the governors and their advisers, representatives of all the 1m p ortaut national organizations, the wel fare of whieh depends in greater or less degree upon natural resources, will be in attendance, and further, the pres­ ident has invited five special guests, chosen for their superlative fitness, to act as “ advisers at la r g e ” to th e con­ ference. Grover Cleveland, the only living ex- President of the U nited States, will, he alth perm itting, be odc of these ad vigers. The others will be William J. Bryan, who hopes to be president; An­ drew Carnegie, industrial king; Jamee J. Hill, railroad monarch, and John Mit- ehell, leader of labor. Every candidate or the presidential nomination this year with the exception of Secretary Taft, whoso duties in P anam a will prevent at tendance, will be there. Looking at the meeting purely from its historical side, it properly may bo said th a t never before in the country's history have the governors of all the statue assembled in convention for any purpose whatsoever. Considered simply as an epoch marking event the eonfer enee will easily take rank with any as sernbly of public men ever held in the civilized world, for at this meeting the ontire government of the United States, in the persons of th a t governm ent's heads, will be assembled at one time. I f for no other reason, the public will be interested in the conference beeanse of this fact. HALF T H O U 3 A N D KILLED.
