Our History.

The Sentinel's history of the Grand
Valley could hardly have been under
taken at more opportune or suspicious
time. The year 1900 marks the begin
ming of new era, and will witness great
advances in the development of the city
and county.
Among the many indications which we
might cite to bear out the above state
ment are the reorganization Of the town
company upon liberal lines, the assured
erection upon the old Brunswick site, OF
a thoroughly modern hotel, the compile
tion of the city water system and the
passage by the city council of the ordi-
nance providing for sewage.
These are only few among the GER
tainties, and their number will be aug
mented as soon as many other contem-
plated acquisitions take more definite
form. Not the least Of pending eonsid-
erations are the establishment OF smell
ter here, for which company has
already been incorporated, and the de
velopment of the Unaweep mining dis
trict, which is right at our door.
Our history will herald these facts to
the world, together with a recitation of
the wealth of our natural resources, and
the message will make the Grand valley
a Mecca for the home seeker.
In assuming the credit for this work,
the Sentinel does rot wish to forget to
thank the generous and ublic spirited
citizens who have contributed to make
this history possibility, and joins in the
general prayer that it may carry to the
world a magic word.
