HAIL TO THE TROUT

This is the day of the fisherman's
dream. He has been waiting patiently,
If he is a law-abiding citizen. for
chance at the most artful, gamey and
toothsome FISH in the world. And the
streams of Utah are fun of them this
year.
BY daybreak this morning enthU-
siasts were whipping the fresh water
of the region and Iashing the pools and
eddies 10 a foam in the immediate
neighborhood of the larger cities. The
multitude in Parley's canyon viii have
a veritable cobweb of lines across the
brook Tor this is the first in several
years It has been hshed.
II is splendid TO get out of an early
morning to enjoy the fresh mountain
air and look upon the jew-dampened
hills and hear the roar Of bOisterOus
waters racing down the incline to the
inland sea But the average fisherman
viii not pay much attention TO these
features of the landscape. He is look
ing for trout and intent upon the catch.
His lily is cast under excitement There
is a thrill in the bite and close atten-
ton to business is an essential feature
Of hy-fshing. Concentra ton, nimbie-
ness. accuracy OF aim and eye are re-
auired to capture the speckled beau
ties of the mountain brook.
Nor are ali the pleasures Of the fish
ing season confined to the sport Of
hooking the FISH The delights of the
lunch are to be included. Appetites
are whetted by the air and exercise.
Then the camp and the ssvory smell
Of frying trout Nothing can excel it
for outdoor enjoyment.

Mckinley administration TO believe it
had accomplished something wonderful
and to boast of Secretary Hays mas
terful diplomacy. Conditions have re-
Gently arisen in the Orient which ex-
pose the sham Of this claim. English
interests IN China require the English
version Of this open door" agreement
10 be told. So the representatives of
the British government at Washington
have given out that Salisbury and
Pauncefote never made any such agree
ment as Hay has claimed to have se-
cured.
The New York Herald. a strong Nc
Kinley supporter, has had the entire
correspondence overhauled in an effort
TO vindicate Hay and bolster up the
administration, but it acknowledges de-
feat and says: "A comparison of the
British and Russian notes win show
their great dissimilarity and neither
can be regarded as bin ling when the
proposals are so different AS Germany,
France, Japan and Italy gave assure
ances on condition. it is evident that
the whole fabric of the open door is
likely to be torn away should a for
eign nation think a demand made bv
the United States eXacting and the mo-
ment propitioUs for it to refuse"
Either Secretary Hay and President
Mckinley were buncoed by Pauncefote
and Salisbury, or else they have been
trying to bunco the American people
while playing into the hands of the
British government.
Either the administration bought a
gold brick from English diplomats, or
consented to act as cappers to help de-
ceive the people If this republic.

TRIPLES!

Our cars are no better--in themselves
than the cars of other lines. 1t is
what is INSIDE them that makes them
more comfortable
For instance: The seats in our re-
clining chair ears are provided with
linen head pieces-clean and cool. Our
dining cars have electric fans. and are
gorgeously decorated with flowers. IN
every car is a thermometer, which the
porter constantly consults in order to
keep the temperature of his car as
nearly uniform as possible.

fles. but the sum total of them goes a
long way toward making a trip over

The Logan Journal believes it was
high time for a change in the presi-
dency Of the Agricultural college. It
says that Professor Kerr has assumed
a heavy labor by taking the place. for
that institution is practically democrat
lied. He win doubtless be quite equal
to the task. and the near future will
witness some beneficial changes in the
policy of the big institution on the hill. y
The Herald has every confidence in
President Kerr's ability TO bring the
college out of the gloom and into the
light. The hearty corporation Of every
friend OF the Institution should be his
and his record as president of a similar
institution is a guarantee Of success.

Anerica,s SIN CONSUMPTION.

The United States has now become the
greatest raw silk consuming country in
the world (excepting, Of course, China
and perhaps Japan, where correct statis-
ties OF home consumption are not yet
avaiIable). IN other words, New York
City, the only raw silk market in Amer
lea. holds now the first place among ali
the silk markets of the world, Shanghai
alone excepted. In New York City more
raw silk is now sold than is consumed in
France. which is still the largest raw
silk consuming country in Europe.

amoFphic.' Not alone in approaching
the igneous nature of some but in
demonstrating the sedimentary nature
of others and in working out the struc-
ture of many complex areas, such as
the Alps. the Scottish highlands and
the Lake Superior region, have we
gained outposts far in advance of those
held in the year 1900. Today we re-
gard these problems as among the most
attractive of the science. although their
difficulty is not belittled.
When the strata of the older fossil

advance in knowledge is simply aston
ishing. The biologists of the last cen
fury knew little of these beds; their
experience so far as any stFatigraphy
worthy of the name was concerned was
limited to the mes0zoic and cenOzoic
formations. Today we are we'll aware
that fossils occur as far back as the

fathers would have given up as hope

CARTER FOR QUAY.

Philippines Bill Reported.

WASHINGTON. March 6.-Mr. Car
ter of Montana dealt vigorously with tn,
Quay case in the senate yesterday in thu
course of an explanation of why he will
vote for the former senator from Penn
sylvania. He voted against the seating
OF Mr.. Colbctt in the last congress be-
cause, he said, Mr.. Corbrtt was cndcayor-
ing to benefit by wrong pcrpetratcd 10y
himself. He declared Mr.. Quay was the
victim of a "diaboical plot" in his own
state such as had no counterpart in
American political history.
The near approach to the time of vOt-
ing on the conference report on the tinan-
cial bill brought out two speeches on that
measure, one by Mr.. Fairbanks of In
diana and the other by Mr.. Butler of
North Carolina. The Indiana senator de-
Tended the gold standard and generally
applauded the action of the conference
committee, while Mr.. Butler attacked the
pending measure particularly because OF
the power it conferred upon national
banks. a final vote on the conference re-
port will be taken today at o'clock.
The senate committee on Philippines
has decided to report the bill introduced
