whether an object was an animal or a plant. We find these objects today as for instance the sponge, which is both animal and plantlike. Some of these seaplants are of so low a form or life that it is we'll nigh impossible to distinguish which is which.
 This theory of most scientists is not antagonistic to the Old Testament creation story, but the difference lies in the manner in which it is interpre. ted. Scientists accept the Darwinian theory for three distinct reasons. These are:
 Because of proofs found in the study of biology, geology and physi- ology.
 Because of the close anatomical re- semblance between man and the high CT apes. Every bone, muscle, nerve, vessel, etc., in the one coinciding with the structure of the other; a similarity too great to be accidental
 Because of the striking proof of blood relationship. One great scien- tlst points out that when the blood of horse is transfused into an ass, that of hare into a rabbit, that of a man into chimpanzee, there is har- monious mingling. Into other animals the blood streams behave in hostile way, causing destruction of the red corpuscles.
 Aside from the geological and bio- logical reasoning there are more sci entists who cling to the physiological proof (including the blood) than to any other demonstration of the claim that man and monkeys are indeed cousins-that their origin is exactly the same, but that one branched off and became intelligent beings while the other continued in a state of bestiality.
 But just how these lines of reason ing are antagonistic to religion is past ones reason to reconcile. In the Gate way tomorrow we will publish an ar ticle from the pen of one of the greatest living churchmen, denying that religion and evolution are antag- onistic or that they are in anyway correlated.
 In the meantime in a mean, plodding little village in the Tennessee town. a jury of his peers are trying a teacher who taught theory indorsed by the foremost scientists of the world, and Upheld by many facts in biology, phy- 3iology and geology. A veritable empest in teapot.
 Many men were hanged or drawn md quartered for saying the world vas round, and it has been but few generations since witches were hang ed at Salem
 And, remember, the Darwinian theo- | " is theory and not a fact.

SPOKANE BANKER LOOKS FOR COAL
 BUNkERS HERE
Fred B. GrinneII under Impression Bunkers Already Erected in
 Town of Seward.
HAS TAKEN MATTER THE UP
President Coolidge Thinks Much of Governor Parks As Do Other
 Prominent Officials.

Among the many prominent cit zeins from the States who were vis- itors in Seward while the steamer Alaska was in port, were MT. and Mrs. Fred B. Grinnell of Spokane. They were round trip passengers on the vessel. In Seward they renewed acQuaintances with MT. and Mrs. H. E. Ellsworth, former residents of Spokane, but who for many years past, have been identified in Sew ard and Alaskan business.
 Mr. Grinnell is a prominent busi- ness man of Spokane, having for the last 40 years been engaged in the real estate and banking business. The trip to Alaska, his first, was not made for business reasons but pri- marily on a quest of health, recup- erating from lengthy illness. The journey to Alaska has been full of interest and enjoyment to both MT. and Mrs. Grinnell, and it will be
  with pleasure that they will look forward to their next trip.
 He Found It a Myth
 Shortly after his arrival in Sew ard, MT. Grinnell began to look about for the coal storage bunkers, of which he had read last winter, were to have been constructed at this port by the Alaska Railroad. He re- gretted they had not been erected as yet and advised Seward residents to get busy and find out something about it for, with the building of coal bunkers at this port, the finest natural harbor I have seen on the trip, Seward will come into it's own as an active Pacific coast seaport"
 Will Boost Bunkers.
 MT. Grinnell said during his short visit at Juneau on the southbound trip, he would make it a point to call on Governor George A. Parks, in connection with the Seward coal bunkers. He also signified his in. tention of taking the matter up with Senator c. c. Dill, a passenger on the Alaska and whom he has been a | friend of many years standing. Al l aska has two great natural industries, | as far as I am able to judge from l what I have seen," MT. Grinnell said | One of these is your fishing indus | try and the other is your enormous beds of apparently, all grades of coal. I am informed the coal analy- 1 sis of Alaska coal compares very favorably with other coals. Alaska operators should have no difficulty in placing it on the market on the Out | side"
 President Coolidge thinks very highly of your new governor, George | Parks, and much good should come to Alaska by the President | setting a precedent in selecting an Alaskan of Governor Parks caliber l or the chair"

It is depressing to the average edi- tor to receive the Mondays news dis patches with their long lists of deaths and injuries in all parts of the United States. In most of these accidents the pity is that they could have been avoided. A sharp curve on smooth road, fool in a row boat, a venture some swimmer, mad desire to be thought daring or venturesome, and tragedy stalks in hundreds of homes.

throwing . mysterious glocm over the forests. In the mountains of Arizona one summer a mountain lion repeatedly passed along series of ledges high above my cabin at dusk. uttering this loud weird cry, popularly supposed to resemble the scream of terrified woman.
 Tirelcss Wanderer
 The mountain lion is usually nocturnal. but in regions where 1t is not hunted 1t not infrequently goes abroad by day. It is e tireless wanderer. often travelling many miles in a single night, sometimes in search of game and again in search of new hunting grounds. I have repeatedly followed its tracks for long distances along trails, and in northern Chihuahua once tracked one for a couple of miles from a bare rocky hill straight across the open, grassy plain toward treeless desert mountain, for which 1t was heading, some eight or ten miles away. ".#
 Although inoffensive as to people, this cat Is such a fierce and relent- less enemy of large game and live stock that 1t is everywhere an out law. ....
 Preys by Stealth
 "A mountain lion usually secures its prey by a silent, cautious stalk, taking advantage of every cover until within striking distance, and then. with one or more powerful leaps. dashing the victim to the ground with all the stunning impact of its weight.
 Tn a beautiful live-oak forest on the mountain of San Luis Potosi I once tracked one of these great cats to the spot where 1t had killed a

deer q short time before. and could plainly read in the trail the story of the admirable skill with which 1t had moved from cover to cover until 1t reached knoll at one side of the little glade where the deer was feeding. Then a great leap carried 1t to the deer's back and struck the victim to the ground with such violence that 1t slid 10 or 12 feet across the sioping ground. ap- parently having been killed on the instant"

Regular meeting Saturday, Sept.
18th, at 200 p. m. in City Hotel.
Continuing the city contest study
we find given as a reason for city
planning that the unprecedented
population growth Of our cities
during the past few decades is the
one great outstanding fact of this
industrial age. That this abnor-
NAL growth should have resulted
in expressive piecemeal and i'll
considered physical development is
perhaps inevitable. 1t has taken
our high taxes-in q large part the
result of our topsy-turvy civic de-
velopment to awaken our people to
the need of a city plan for the ulti-
mate systematic development of
the community. *f*

Sportsmen Like 1t.

Amigo people generally will be
delighted over the promotion of
Conservation Warden Mckenzie to
that of Chief Conservation War
den. Mr.. Mckenzie has been one Of
the most fearless and efficient war
dens in the state and his promo
ton was well deserved. And we
want to congratulate Elmer Hall,
head of the conservation depart
ment upon his excellent selection.
In this connection we are remind
ed of the fact that Mr.. Mckenzie
nearly lost his life some two years
ago in the discharge of his duties.
The man Atkins, who committed
the dastardly deed, has been out
on bond for year and half and
has not yet been brought to trial.
Just where the responsibility lies
we do not know. The records show
that change of venue from Judge
Werner was granted, but thus far
no other judge has been called in
to try the case. In the meantime
this man is at large. 1t would
seem that it was about time that
justice was meted out.

Hull SAYS 1t Pays.

Expressing a view shared by
many country weekly editors, Mer-
lin Hull, editor of Jackson County
Journal, has recently said that
malicious advertising pays irrespec-
tive of the times. Hull in the fol-
lowing paragraphs has carefully
analysed this situation:
Views differ as to what sort Of
prosperity there will be in the
northwest during 1925. Some seem
to think that times will be glorious
and others that it will require
more than a single season to put
things at top notch. We do not
claim to know. But there is one
thing sure from a business stand
point and that is that those who
advertise judiciously and well will
reap their full portion of whatever
prosperity there is.
When times are flush, and every
body is rushing to buy and it is
merely matter of showing buyers
where to find what they want
and they want everything then, adj
vertising pays. 1t could not help
but pay. When times are close and
people buy with care, not only of
what they want but what they
must have, then advertising which
tells what and where to buy brings
just as good results. Advertising
always pays-in season. It pays
the buyer because the buyer can
better plan his purchases. 1t pays
the merchant because it increases
his turnover and increases his pro-
fits on his business even though he
may make less profit on his sales.
There is more profit on $1,000
worth sold twice at gain of Z per
sent than when sold once at gain
of 10 per cent. Advertising in
creases the volume of sales, no
matter what the times. The man
who realizes that fact will do the
most business.

Keep Away From Wildcats.

Buying blue sky and wildcat
shares Of stock is not the popular
indoor sport it was a few years
ago. People are learning more anG
more the wisdom Of consulting a
bank with good reputation before
making investments and handing
out their hard earned money.
National distribution of the bet
ter class of investments has be-
come a modern science, and in a
great nation like ours with enor-
nous accessions of newly created
wealth, it is very important that
those who buy securities know
what they are getting.
Our harvest season is here.
Farmers are blessed with normal
crops and in some cases better than
normal, and prices are above nor
nal. They will find themselves
with plenty Of money this fall and
the slicker stock salesman will be
on hand to take it away from
them.
There are many good invest
ments in all lines Of activity, and
all that buyer needs Go is use
ordinary prudence and consult
with responsible banking or in
vestment houses, and millions of
dollars will be saved from loss.
