Minne- apolis reported an increase in stocks of 1,25O,OO0 bushels for the past three days. The cash prices at Minneapolis and Duluth were more than one cent below yesterdays close.

 Reverting to the charges against GoNprnor Haskell. Mir. Bryan says the president in response to his request, did not deign to suggest a tribunal which could determine those charges, but instead proceeded to pass judg- ment upon him and he informs the president that the occupant of that high office can not deny the humblest citizen the right to protect his reputa- tion and vindicate his name in the courts.
 Taking up the presidents assertion that certain trust magnates, fearing prdsecution under Taft will support thel dem0cr9r1c c-rrrctrTre.

matter to the attention of the limited states
fish commission with the result that soon we
may drop hook and line into almost any
stream OF the country and pull up a Roosevelt
Golden Trout, the ancestors of which years
before thought themselves to be marooped
forever in Volcano creek
1t was not easy job for the fish commits
sion to gather many of the Roosevelt Golden
Trout, for the fish possess that wariness
which is common among the members of
the fnny world in mountain streams However.
a highly developed idea in the way of a trap
well baited, drew sufficient number of the
trout into Its inner recesses The first step
of the work having been taken the rest was
easy. The fish were transported to Bozeman
and Leadville where they were allowed to
propagate until great numbers of eggs were in
the hands of the fish commission
The Roosevelt Golden Trout is essentially
a trout, but instead of the conventional gray
and white of the average trout in fresh streams
and lakes, itE sides streaked with beauti-
full golden tint which imparts color to the
surrounding water and makes the fish visible
to the fisherman's eye from distance of sever
al rods in clear water.

1t is that of savior of the Salmo Roosevelt

plies Golden Trout. He has saved the Roose-
welt Golden Trout, product of the west from
extinction. This fish is known as the
Vlost toothsome morsel which the finny realm
holds forth as the trophy of the rod and reel
The Roosevelt Golden Trout is the gamest
and showiest species of trout in the United
States and If promises of the United States
fish commission are to be believed this spe-
ces will be angled for in hundreds of streams
In the country within few years.
Some time ago President Roosevelt stirred
the fish commission into action when he told
its members that the Roosevelt Golden Trout
was threatened with extinction.
Tho tall minds of that august body at once
set about to find out what the Roosevelt Gold
en- Trout was. ponderous probe developed
1t was a fish and that there was only one
place in the United States where 1t was to
be found-in Volcano creek on the slopes of
Mount Whitney, Cal.
Several of the fish were captured alive and
put in great tanks in Bozeman, Mont and
Leadville. Col, to hatch eggs This they did
as prescribed by the fish cultural stations.
Just the other day word came from those
stations that sufficient quantity of eggs had
been secured to stock streams in which trout
are to be found, in every part of the United
States. Upwards of million eggs were propa-
gated and soon these will be planted through
out the United States.
Hence in few years the present-day Izaak
Walton, who passes his summers angling for
trout and catching old Shoes tin and the
like, will occasionally be rewarded by feeling
the nibb1e of the famed Roosevelt Golden
Trout at his hook. If the fish nibbles strong
enough the fisherman must every bit of
cunning at his command. for the finny creature
is one of the toughest customers to land.
This rare fish appropriately named the
Roosevelt Golden Trout 1t derived that name
because of the chief executives strenuous and
successful efforts to save 1t from extinction.
AS stated above the only place where 1t is to
be found to-day is in Volcano creek, the turbu-
lent waters of which prove particular attrac
ton for the species and which make 1t diff
cult for the angler to land the fish, because of
the latter's propensity for winding the hunts
mans line around rock and saving 1t in two.
The streah, which is hard to And is situated
halfway up Mount Whitney and is 16 miles
in length. 1t takes a guide of some intelligence
to land his patron on its banks and in spot
where the Golden Trout is to be found in any
quantity.

"At first 1t was almost impossible to gather
any of these fish in order to install them in
the cultural stations at Leadville. Col and
Bozeman, Mont. but finally we delegated
several guides of the Mount Whitney region
to go out and use their utmost energies to-
wards capturing the fish. Upon the promise
OF substantial sums they did this and we were
able to secure several beautiful specimens.
These Immediately hustled away in
large tanks in order that the fish might not
die and they were then placed in larger tanks
with water containing chemical preparations
and allowed to propagate. Soon our efforts
began to derive fruit and now we have prob
ably the finest outlay of eggs which we ever
secured in an effort of this kind. We may be
pardoned for the especial pride which we take
in this work because 1t has been accomplished
with success. / may say that the residents
