Tho turks" Prize Haul.

The Turco- African gentleman who
has attracted considerable attention
about the streets for the past several
weeks is the hero OF a fish story which
is strictly true.
While meadering along the banks Of
the more or less limpid Grand yesterday
he discovered monster salmon. The
Turk" is professional fisherman and
expert knife -thrower, so divesting him
self OF his clothing and securing large
knife he followed the fish in the stream
until he was able to cast the blade. The
knife went straight to its aim, striking
under the gill. This 30 disabled the
fish that his Turkship was enabled to
cast it on the bank after hard struggle,
where it was dispatched with club.
The fish proved to be white salmon,
which for pluck and pugnacity leads the
finny family. Its weight was twenty
pounds, which up to date is the largest
OF the species ever seen in the waters Of
the Grand.-Grand junction Sentinel.

JUDGE Henry G. Caldwell, Of Arkansas,
is fearless speaker in the interests of
the people and on the silver question he
recently said: $50 long as we proclaim to
the world that our purpose is to adhere
to a single gold standard till England a
grees to abandon il, tho free and un-
limited coinage of silver at ratio will
never come. Supplications in this direc-
tion will be in vain. She .spurns them
with the arrogance and insolence that
such cowardly and pusiIlanimous actions
on our part deserve. What is more, Eng
lands action is courageous and aggres-
sive action, not cewardly duplication.
The issue is sharply defined. Those who
do not favor the free coinage Of gold and
silver at 16 to 1, making silver the unit OF
value as was done under the act of 1892
are for gold standard There is no
middle ground

lie in the return of Rudyard Kipling to
India. He has Just agreed to furnish n
regular contribution to The Cosmopol.
itan Magazine for the coming year. be-
ginning his work upon his return to In
dia. India has never been critically con
sidered by such pen as Kipling's, and
what he will write for The Cosmopolitan
will attract the widest attention, both
here and in England.
Perhaps the most beautiful series OF
pictures ever presented OF the Rocky
mountains will be found in collection
Of fourteen original paintings, executed
by Thomas Moran for the May Cosmo-
politan. To those who have been in the

will be a souvenir worthy OF preserva-
ton. This number contains fifty two

WoUIp it not be good plan for the

question OF securing lower express rate
ON fruit from Delta and Grand Junction
to.the nearer mining camps? 1t is re-
ported that under the new schedule the
rate to Salida, Leadville, Aspen and Gun
nison will be about S1.50. while to Den
yer it will be only $1.10. If this should
prove to be the case it leaves fine oppor-
tunity for practical work in securing a

The New York papers have been filled
with long lists OF passengers who are
leaving our shores to travel in Europe
during the summer months. 1t is also
said that a very large number Of recently
arrived immigrants are hurrying back
homo again, to such an extent that the
steamship companies have advanced
their passenger rates. Each fare paid
by these returning immigrants is SO
much money for foreign steamship
company and taken out Of the country.
Every American visiting Europe for
pleasure takes hundreds of dollars out
OF the country. This, Of course, they
have right to do. The money is their
own to spend where they please. But
we respectfully submit to those who con-
template passing the present summer
s.ason in Europe that they should pause
and consider how much or how little
they know, and have seen, OF this country,
and il there are not some points OF inter
est in the United States which they
might visit with considerable advantage
to themselves, seeing sights and scenes
that exist nowhere else in the world.
BY doing this they would lose nothing,
they would have good outing, they
would be able to talk more intelligently
about their own country and they
would have the further satisfaction of
knowing that they had materially as
sisted in circulating their money among
their fellow citizens at time when it
waA needed. Patriotic Americans

In their misgiyings as to the re-

the ridieule and abuse it can com

Among other things it calls him

arch-free trader? Do they mean
that "waggish free trader" or do
they mean "that chief of all free

pay him quite compliment. There
may be such a thing as an arch
