GOING A-FiSHlNG.
philadelphia Ledger

About this time well-disposed and con-
templative persons are going a-hshlnS, or
have already gone. A seasoned fisherman
who knows all about it says that often
times the best part of fishing is not the
fishing The preparation, the journey, the
lettering by the stream are part OF the
piscatorial pleasure Things anuclpatory
are often more to be enjoyed than things
possessory.
The spells of a fishing expedition are
not all contained in the basket. The
fishing philosophers who write books have
a great deal to say about matters only
incidentally related to the hook and line.
Fishing is as good preteXt to excuse an
outing as any other, and 1t fits In very
well with the injunction that we should
always have some purpose in going afIeld
besides the mere going. One of our phil
osophic fishermen eXclaims: Not trout
in your basket Never mind. you have
fished in the heavens and taken great
store of prey. Let them laugh at your
empty basket; you have certainly had
good luck"
There are enigmas of fishing which no
treatise on the art attempts 10 explain.
Mr.. Beecher, in his breezy outdoor talks.

mysterious men who are in league with

day for four dace and at evening to fall
i'm with "a merry negro, who informs you
with a most patroniZing kindness that he
has been to the same brook and mas
caught three dozen trout, several of them
weighing half a pound"
Then there is the conciliatory attitude
which moralists by universal consent hold
toward lying when one is reporting ones
fishing exploits. The moral philosophers
with one accord declare that a lie is
never justifiable; but he who reads be-
tween the lines excerpts and exempts those
amiable and harmless fabrications which
the fisherman INDUCES in respecting the
fish that escaped. For some ineXplica-
BILE reason. otherwise reputable and
moral. knights of the hook and line are
for the most part picturesque and mon
umental liars, whose sins against verify

hope, in the next
With these infirmities, our piscatorial
sportsmen are, as a rule, very con-
rious reflection and introspection. Fish
ing has always been the resort and solace
of great minds. Webster so the de-
liehtful tradition runs. thought out and
nodded into shape some of his most So
norous periods when pursuing the elu-
siye trout Fancy, il not Veritable and
unimpeachable history, presents him as
gracefully gesticulating and declaiming
grandly by the brookside, with the trees
as the listening senate.
The art of fishing is occult and known
to few. John Burroughs says that the
successful angler seems born and not
made THE secret is, no doubt, love of
the sport. He puts something on his
hook that attracts stronger than es-
sence or oil, namely, his heart. Love
sharpens the eye, the ear, the touch.

Judges Susceptible to Bias.

In concluding the opinion says:
1T is contended that Gffidavits on the
pert of the appellant do not show bias and
prejudice and that if so, they have been
fully met by other affidavits showing the
high and honorable character of the trial
Judge. 1t must be conceded that judges
are susceptible to bias ard prejudice the
same as other men, and we think the rec
ord shows such rtate of affairs or con-
dition that it would bring discreClt upon
the judiciary to permit a trial before the
present judge, and therefore conclude that
another judge must be called to try the
case, as many be done under the provi-
sions of section u, article g. of the consti-
tuition of Idaho. 1t will no doubt be less
expensive to both parties to try the case
