sake ofdcvcloPing the coNl fields of that
region and to obtain title TO coal lands,
and that they never intend to push the
road across the mountains. Whether
true or not we do not pretend to know.
Precisely the same charges are brought
against the Seattle and Wnlla Wala
road. We neither endorse or deny the
C argps. We have at present about as
much faith in the purity ofone company
rs the other. We want to see n road
built across the mountains, but we do
not care rush which company builds
it. The company that shows good faith
and determination to speedily push
the enterprise through. will have our
feeble support and hest wishes. We
have no particular desire to take u hand
in the rivalres and speculAtions of
either Seattle or Tacoma. A CONNER
cial metropolis at either or both OF
those towns will benefit US here on the
Snohonish. We are not exactly de.
pendent upon either. We have IN open
highway to the ocean by way OF Port
Townsend and are not compelled to pay
tribute 10 either of those places unless
we please. Our merchants here can sell
goods here, bought in San Francisco, AS
cheap MS Seattle, Tacoma or Portland
merchants can; and the day is not very
far distant when products and goods
will 60 and come to us direct, without
touching at any Of those ports.
What we have said above, concern
ing railroads and the scheme presented
by Hon. Judge McGilvary, are only our
individual views OF the matter. If they
nre wrong We are willing to correct
them. We do not claim intallibllity and
shall pick no quarrcls with those who
differ from us. ...

is something more in the new theory OF
evolution than mere conjecture, even ii
all that is claimed for it is not fully
proven. Hence he is quietly preparing
the way for religion to adopt all that is
true, in science, history and morals; in
fact seeks to make religion conform to
nature, break her shaCklGs, OF creed, for.
mHlism, and pag4nism, come up to the
standard of the age and become the van
guurd instead Of the struggling tail 0t the
army of intellectual progress.
Brother Utter will find this up hill
work, but very pleasant and agreeable,
if he does not place too high an estimate
upon popular opinion. But if too SEN

field OF liberalism. Some of the ortho.

prominent official has already publicly
snubbed him by haughtily refusing to
join him in Sunday School excursion.
Even the secular press has gone out OF
the way few times, to snecr ut the

has told some very wholesome trut lbs,
not wayside seeds, to be choked with
bigotcd thorns, but sown broad cast,
and as his stock is like the widows

We are glad to find Brother Utter as

unbecoming too, in any scholar, and he

Comments ON MIR. atter's Ser.
mon.

We give our readers this week SER
mon by the Rev. d. n. Utter, taken from
the AdrOcate.
We think we can discern the fact that
Mr.. Utter has premonition of the final
result OF what some. writers are pleased
to term "Contlict of Religion and
Science" The conflict exists more in
the imagination of those who have mas.
tered only a smattering Of either, or are
half informed upon one topic or the
other. Scienceis Systematically arranged
accumulation of facts. Her theories are
but the paths marked out for the stu
dent to follow up, investigate, develop
and prove more facts. The language
of theory is more amusing reading, con-
scquently is often mistaken for the actu.
nj science. The widely circulated and
real literature of the press of the day,
seldom contains anything more than u
brief mention OF an important scieutitic
discovery. But periodicals and news.
papers are full of the theories advanced
by Investigators and the lecture field is
oyerrun with self constituted teachers,
who find that by tickling the pob-
lie ear with, swords of learned
length" they can, "put money IN there
purses" faster than by delivering and
ploding slowly along in the paths of
scientific investigation Science is like
reading new book, To understand
the latter, we must commence with the
PREFACE and read carefully through,
skipping no pages, till we reach the
finis. So with science. We must begin
with the elements and progress step by
step, and when we reach the theories,
the present fms, we shall be prepared
to investigate them, and be of some use
in the world, either in proving or dis
proving their correctness. Those who
are so loud mouthed, so noisy, and such
sticklers for the infallbility, immobility
and non progressiveness of all that per
tains to religion, are Of that class who
have derived their knowledge of science
from theory, from newspaper and maya
zine al lticles, and whose actual hnowl .
edge Of facts is often insufficient for them
to demonstrate the difference between a
curb-stone and u conglomerate rack.
Actual science is but demonstrated
truth. Brother Utter secs this. His
knowledge OF historical religion, has
shown him that in ALL past conflicts be.
tween religion and science, the former
has invariably first, scoited, denounced,
condemned and presented, and then
finally adopted and claimed to bc the
champion, defender, promulgator and
protector of every new discovery. He is
well enough acquainted with the accu-
mulatcd facts Of science to see that there

PARsoN MuRRAY's TRoUT.-The IN
leiligencer has well told story of how
Parson Murray tortured beautiful
trout, with small hook, fine silk line
and slender rod We are fond of fish.
ing but not Of torturing our game, We
always use rigging stout enough to hold
the fish we are seeking, we haul them
aboard the boat as soon as they stick,
and kin them as soon as possible after
they are captured We have used both
rifle and shot gun as well as rod, and
troll, but we confess to the enjoyment of
no such, physical happiness as the
parson describes, in prolonging the
death agony of any OF Gods creatures;
were they hoofed, winged or fined,
There may be poetry in matching fish
of three pound weight against rod
and line hardly adequate for one weigh
ing as many ounces, but there is no hu-
manity in it. Prolonging the torture of
fish by playing him in the water for
AN hour, and exhulting in his agonized
throws in attempting to escape, may be,
"extatic bliss but we think it re-
tinemcnt of cruelty that calls for the in
terterancc of a philanthropis Burgh. We
suppose the parsons, physical happi
ness" must be of that order exhibited
by the cat in torturing mouse or the
dog in worrying its prey. If so, and
there is any truth in Darwinism, there
must be considerable of the feline still
lingering in his moral nature, in spite Of
his present development and high min
isterial position.
We are not in sympathy with this class
OF scribbling sportsmen. We love poet
ry and fine wood painting, but not that
kind which requires the agony OF help
less dumb creature to inspire. Had we
been present with him, no doubt we
should have remembered the picture of
that helpless trouts leap in the air by
the pleasure it afforded him. We are
painfully impressed by the picture drawn
by his pen, and see the weak point in
his moral nature, in spite of his g,lded
description in glittering words.
The use OF such appliances for fishing
as he describes is unscientitic and bar
barous, and only used because high
toned and fashionable. We love the
pure air the murmuring brook the placid
calm OF the lake, the picturesque clouds
aud the shadows of the green tress and
all the natural scenery OF Il Country fish
ing excursion; but we despise the
mawkish sentimentallty of high toned
tourist fisherman and the tiendish cruelty
Ot fashionable tackle.
