TALKING OF FISH"

TALKING OF FISH"
But l was talking of fish, said Mr..
Land, recalling himself from further
pursuit of the question of the origin of
men and animals. DO you know that
fish never die a natural death? In fact,
were = it not for their enemies, fish might
live forever in unpolluted water" This
statement left his hearers speeches.,
and seeing signs of wonder bordering
on incredulity, Mr.. Land assured them
emphatically that what he said was
true, so far as observation could prove
an. thing. Il have the pleasure of the
personal acquaintance of a trout that
is to my own knowledge twenty years
old, and there is not the slightest indi-
cation of deterioration or decadence.
There seems to be nothing about a fish
to wear out or run down. The whale Is
not classed as a fish, but hat is essen
TALLY what it is, and we have instances
of the capture of whales hat bore I'M
mistakable evidence of being 1000
years old. When scientists pay more
attention to fish they will correct some
of their errors. Gentlemen, eat your
fish reverently hereafter, for maybe it
was your senior by several dozen CEN
turtles; it may have nibbled at a hook
cast by Caesar, or flashed in the waves
made by Cleopatra's barge. Its youth
may have been spent in the Thames,
gin forests. The fish of commerce, gen
tlemen, is not nearly SO important as
the fish of science"

SUPREME COURT.
Judge Fishback Again Meets a Water
loo.

The April term of the supreme court
was opened at the capitol yesterday,
says the Cheyenne Tribune. with a full
bench and most of the attorneys in
town present. The various cases were
called, and such as were matured duly
set for argument. Several decisions
were handed down, as follows:
Fishback VS.. Bramel, on error from
the district court of Albany. This was
one of the contested election cases from
Albany county, the office involved be-
ing that of county attorney. The lower
court decided in favor Of Bramel, who
had been declared elected. and this de-
cision was affirmed by the supreme
court. Each of the parties was his W
lawyer.
Rock Springs National Bank vs.. Lu-
man, on motion to retax costs. The
motion was allowed. E. E. Enterlinc
for the motion and &C. Hamlin against
the motion.
Meyer VS.. Preston on error from the
district court of Crook county. This
was a case involving water rights, in
which the district court decided in IA
vor of Preston. The decision of the
lower court was affirmed, and the right
awarded to Preston. N. X. Griggs for
Meyer, and Clark & Breckons and Tom
Hooper for Preston.
Conway ct al. VS.. Dixie ct al. This was
a case from Natrona county which in
volved a very interesting question Of
practice. The case was one tried before
Judge Blake at Casper in May, 1893,
and was decided in favor of Dixie. A
motion for a new trial was overruled by
the trial judge. Before the time given
within which to file a bill of exceptions
had expired, Judge Blake died, and
Judge Hayford was appointed to fill the
vacancy. The bill of exceptions was
then presented to Judge Hayford and
allowed. When the case reached the
supreme court Dixie made a motion to
strike the bill from the files, for the
reason that Judge Hayford had no au-
thority to sign it. This motion the su-
preme IL denied. and permitted the
bill to stand. Burke & Fowler for the
motion. and Clark & Breckons opposed.
Court adjourned until June 2.

A NEW

Il once walked for days in a dense
pine forest IN Maine, and there was
nothing to be seen but pine trees on
every hand. I was in that same local.
ity when that forest was swept off the
face of the earth by a fire. which ut
terly destroyed all vegetation. In the
course Of a season Of two sprouts Of
beeches. oaks. elms, and other decidu-
at one time a pine forest. there is now
a forest of d%eciduous trees. Where
did these trees come from? l offered
a reward of $40 to any boy who could
find me an acorn in that forest. and
they tried to find one, but could not"
Suggestions were offered by those
who listened to this that acorns might
have been dropped by birds, but Mr..
Land called attention to his Inability
to find any acorns or other tree seeds,
and the general growth of trees, he
thought, could not be adequately ac-
counted for on any such theory. There
was much curiosity to learn what ex-
PLANTATION Mr.. Land could offer of the
phenomena he had mentioned, and the
question was put to him.
MY theory? 1t is this: Heat, air
and moisture are the conditions neces>
sary to the production of life. Varia-
lions in these conditions result in vari-
ations in the forms of life. Any given
organism is not the result of an evolu>
tionary growth from a lower type, 1t is
a distinct creation. What the process
Of creation may be is natures secret.
OF one thing l am satisfied, the sun IL
the greatest creative force or agent. All
we know is that given conditions OF
heat, air and moisture will produce
given forms OF life; that is. we can pre-
dict what forms of life will result from
given conditions."
When asked II he accounted for the
physical differences between the sev-
eral races of men on the same hypothe-
SEES, MI. Land SAID he did. THE races
Of men have not descended from COM
mon ancestors. and the differences are
not merely variations from = common
type, caused by differences of environ
ment. We classify bass, pike. perch,
sunfish. etc.. as n family. namely. ~
the perch family, but there 10 NO rela-
ton of consanguinity between any two
Of these varieties. Each 10 . distinct
creation. SO the Caucasian. the negro.
the Monaghan, ETC.. are classified a. Of
one family. but they are 20 essentially
different that no change Of environ
ment could ever urge them. The me-
gro, for instance, has ~ essentially DIFF
ferent structure from IL Ciucasiaa.

the Denver Times.

FROM the Denver Times.
Had Darwin given more study to
fish he would not have written his
books on evolution" Gordon Land.
state fish commissioner, was the
speaker. and there were several inter-
es to talk about fish it is worth while to
listen, for he has been a stepfather to
millions of them. and knows pretty
much all that is worth knowing about
them.
Darwin's theory of the origin of spe-
cies has all but gained the unanimous
consent of secular scientists and phi
losophers, but Mr.. Land boldly declares
that the theory is utterly false. and
bases his declaration upon observed
facts. In nature there are no hy-
brids." he said; "in nature all species
breed true: that is, there is no crossing
of breeds, except when brought about
by a 1t is true there are sometimes
variations from the ancestral type, but
these variations do not become perma-
nent and develop into a distinct spe,
cies."
If this be true. the doctrine of evolu,
ton as presented by Darwin is CHROME,
Gus, and the scientific world has been
capitally fooled. Il have closely OBJ
served the habits of fish for years."
continued Mr.. Land, "and | have never
noticed any variations in breed or II
mixing of breeds where the fish are not
meddled with. Darwin's theory of the
apparently fortuitous appearance Of
certain plants and animals in localities
where they had never been seen before
does not explain the facts. He says
that birds and insects carry the seeds
of plants from place to place, or that
bees carry the fructifying dust from
flower to flower, and thus bring about
the reproduction of the species. Now,
l know of a locality that was perfectly
arid. and 1t was practically without
vegetation or animal life. An artesian
well was sunk and the water was per-
mitted to overflow, and the land around
it was made swampy. This change was
followed by the appearance of swamp
plants, such as reeds. snake weed, etc.
and soon frogs. water bugs, and similar
varieties Of animal life appeared. Now
this place was many miles from any 10,
cality where such forms of vegetable or
animal life existed, yet with the ap-
pearance of the proper conditions they
came.
