THE TROUT SEASON.
Much Cold Weather Makes the Prospect
Unfavorable.

Local fishermen are just now inter
ested in the coming first of May that
being the time when the trout fishing
season commences, and many of them
are already getting their tackle ready.

not very favorable for an early sea

There is considerable snow water
to be found in the smaller streams on
the mountains which flow into those in
the valley. A few warm days like
last Sunday however would make
quite a difference in the outlook.

The White House is very jubilant
over letter from Luke Wright, Gov.
ernor-General of the Philippines, in
which he says that Democratic talk is
having a bad effect on the natives.
To quote: 1.-THE effect of the con-
tinued discussion as to the capacity Of
the Filipino for self-government and
his immediate or ultimate independ-
ence is having its effect here, and is
distinctly injurious" The President
of the Anti-Imperislist League here,
DIR. W. A. Crotfut, exclaims: at is
certainly distressing and lamentable
that the Presidents viceroy at Manila
thinks that Judge Parker's letter of
acceptance so terribly Injurious to the
Filipinos. He probably thinks it
almost reasonable. But then, come
to think of it, isn't that just what
George Ill and Lord North thought

Franklin?

line of disparagement in the book, no
consciousness or even criticism, yet it
is complete vindication of the man
who fought the battle of Santiago and
who, in the historic picture of the
Spanish War, will forever stand arm
in-arm with Admiral Dewey. Dem.
