In considering the subject of conservation one la not apt to take Into account that It should apply In a very real and pmptioal sense to the protection and perpetuation of oar flah. ojfster, and other products of the eaa just as much as to' the protection Of the natural resources of the land. There is no doubt but that the supIply of edible fish, clams, oysters, and other sen products In the waters of 'North Carolina U becoming less and | leas each year; There are two reasons for this condition: (1) Insuffijclent laws for the protection and regulation of the catch of flah and oyajters; and (2) non-enforcement of the |laws which have already been passed, In some counties of the state the lajirs We now hare on our statute jhcoks are practically dead letters for the reason thatthere Is no way or enforcing them. The falling off in the catch of edible fish Is not doe to the use of an; ipnrticular kind of apparatus. Hundreds of thousands of small flah have been caught which, if allowed to remain in the water, would in a raar or two become valuable edible flab. The small*fish caught, in this way are often dumped oja.the shore and used as fertiliser, or shipped to market with a faint hope that they may be marketable, but ln most cases they are thrown oat by the dealer unsalable. If the small fish are destroyed (by whatever, means), ft ie a self-evident fact that it will not be long before there will be a scarcity of large ones; and finally certain fish will becqme extinct in the North Carolina waters. It is possible to protect aad perpetuate our fish end oyster Indnstriea by 'idltfUt e1 only sdequste method of enforcing state laws and fostering our fishing Industrie* is through the operation of a State Fish, Commission having jurisdiction over all the eounties of the state. The work of such a commission should be not only to see that the laws are enforced, but it should be able to carry on investigations relating to the fishing industries; to study local conditions and be able to render Just decisions in regard tc tie best policy to pnrsuo for the perpetuation of the oyster end any other type of fish with the Idea of subserving the best Interests of the state. The North Carolina Geological and Economic Survey has been, and is still, carrying on investigations relating to fish and oyster protection and cultivation of the oyster, clam, &nd diamond-back terrapin. The sue eeaaful cultivation of all three of these products would net a large annua llnoome to the State, whereas at the presnt time It la a negligible quantity. The result of the work of the Geological Surrey has been to establish a Fish Commission, whose 'jurisdiction Is only over a few counties of the State, and the passage of ad act by the legislature which makes possible the cultivation of the oyster la North Carolina. The investigations ot the Survey with regard to the oyster have proVed rather conclusively that It Is both practicable and profitable to cultivate this sea food. PBA YER. MEMORIAL.

C., Nov. 11.?In Jan uary, upon the occasion of the last visit of Hon. William JennlngB Bryan to Raleigh, he was detained here for several hours on account of a wreck on the Seaboard near Norllna, In which Engineer Will Bishop wan severely injured. Yesterday morning he expected to leave Raleigh for Savannah on the 5:40 a. m. train, but the serious wreck near Norllna, In which Enigncers Faison and Beckbam were killed, detained him In Raleigh all day, and ho did not leavo until last night. On Monday morning, shortly after 11 o'clock. Engineer Beckham called at the home of Josephus Daniels to see Mr. Bryan. Ho was a great admirer of the Nebraskan, and called to pay tala respects and carry a basket of fine tomatoes. "1 thought ! would like Mr. Bryan to have something nice," he said to Mr. Daniels "and as good tomatoes are scarce at thin season, I brought you these." Then he remained for a visit to Mr. Bryan, chatting pleasantly and happily, and left with hearty good wishes to Mr. Brpan, expressing the hope that he would one of these days see him In the White House. "I am greatly shocked and dlatr^sed," said Mr. Bryan, when he learned of tho catastrophe which resulted In Mr. Beckham's death. His splendid physique, his cordial manner, and hiB geniality pleased me greatly, and as he bade me good bye yesterday morning I little thought he i would so soon be called from a world I which he made taappiqr by his cheerfulness." Mr Hrvan n?iUr?/t lilies of tho valley sent to Mrs. Deckbam with expressions of deep sympathy to his wife and family. Later in the day Mr. Bryan called tin person with Mr. Daniels at the home of both the brave engineers to add his sympathy to that which was felt and expressed by the whole city.

Judge Backus stated late today that the report probably would not be bofore Thursday, and that he had no Idea what he findings would be. The commission held what was expected would be its last session with Sehrank yesterday, and It was even while he was being subjected to further questioning by the physicians that the report gained circulation that the priosner would be adjudged insane. Presuming that Sehrank will be found insane. It will be impoaible to try him on the charge of attempting to kill Col. Roosevelt.
