A DAY OF GRIEF.

The whole civilized world joins the American
people in mourning for their dead President
The expressions Of sorrow and sympathy are
not merely the conventional tokens OF dlplo-
matte courtesy and formal coincidence Popular
sympathy in other lands has been genuinely
moved The peoples of Europe have anXiously
watched with u.s. Joined with us in our rejoicing
at the prospect of President McKinleys recov-
cry. and shared our deep grief when hopes have
been disappointed and the tragic ending has
come In England President Mckinley was eX-
treulely popular and his death is felt as that or
the head Of related family of intimate assoc-
alton. We may not perhaps find on the Cont
nent the same personal feeling, but everywhere
there is sincere grief and profound respect and
this is especially notable in France, where the
festivities arranged in honor OF the Cars visit
have been abandoned. The significance Of this
tribute is appreciated when the close relation Of
France and Russia, the great preparations for
the visit and the interest of the French people
in entertaining their ally are remembered. The
aged Pontiffs feelings are deeply moved. and
the governments of all the world share in the
horror over the cruel and causeless crime.
Here at home all strife is hushed, not less in
mourning than in awe. Governors and Mayors
have given voice TO the unusual sorrow. Indi-
vsdual citizens are sdraping their buildings and
have halfmasted their flags. Public amuse-
ments have instinctively been discontinued,
business is suspended, and in every household
the tragedy at Buffalo is regarded as an imme-
date affection, and from every household go
forth sincere and deep prayers for the faithful
and loved wife OF their lost leader. President
Mckinley In a marvellous degree had the per-
sonal affection OF his countrymen. They had
watched him daily, appreciated his splendid
character, felt the charm of his personality.
Those who knew him well passionatey loved
him, and those who never saw him shared the
tradition of his virtues. So the whole people
look TO Buffalo and watch the preparations for
the last sad tributes to bis memory with sense
Of personal afiction.
They also are looking there with feeling of
exaitation. During the anxious day and night
preceding his death they were eagerly intent on
news Of bis condition. Now they see the whole
scene spread before them, and IN Its sadness
there is something sublime. No dying man was
ever more calm, gentle resigned and hopeful
The pathetic and tender leavetakngs; the clear
strong. Christian faith; the large souled pity for
his assassin, sink into all hearts and teach their
lesson. What accident OF human life can really
hurt him who thus faces eternity? Many a mar

Gone to Capture a Bear.

Elwood Hofer, who has made a liv-
ing for many years as guide and
hunter in Yellowstone park, has gone
to Kadiak island, in the Gulf of Alas
ka, on a difficult errand. He has been
commissioned by the Smithsonian in
stitution to capture one Of the mon
ster bears which live on the above
named island, none of which has ever
been taken alive. The animals are of
the polar variety, perfectly white, and
when full grown are twice as large
as the ordinary black bear of the
Rocky mountains. The average Kad-
lax island bear weighs from 2,40O to
5000 pounds, and stands as high as a
cow.-New York Commercial Adver-

THE sENATORsHIP.

The United States senatorship is
yet in the air. The incoming legis>
lators are coy in pronouncing their
preferences. Some may be honestly
waiting to see what is the best thing
to do, while others, no doubt, are
holding back to discover whom
they may best do"
Patterson stock is going up and
Thomas stock down that much is
already discernable. Mr.. Patterson
may not reach far enough, but he
and Gov. Adams are making sad
inroads into the Thomas ranks, and
one of these two is just as likely as
not to land the prize.
After an experience of two years
guardianship by Gov. Thomas, we
do not believe there would be walls
ing and gnashing of teeth outside
Thomas headquarters should Gov.
Adams, or Mr.. Patterson, or per-
chance Mr.. Hughes, walk off with
the plum. These gentlemen may
not be better democrats than Cows
ernor Thomas, but they are worth
more to the democratic party than
he, that is certain.
1t is pretty generally admitted
that Governor Thomas has miss
takenly allowed his senatorial am>
bitions to dominate his guberna'
torial actions. He has not always
kept faith. His advisers have not
been wisely chosen. His term as
governor has done much to weaken
him, and, incidentally, his party as
well.
These are a few OF the causes
which tend to the weakening OF the
Thomas fences. 1t may be that
the stakes have been set SO long a
time that they are found unservice>
able Just when most needed, but
certain it is that the Thomas
strength is dissolving into thin air
as the days OF his stewardship as
governor draw to an ending.

THE HANDSOMEST EDITION.

The Colorado Springs Gazette
was without any question whatever
the handsomest New Years edition
printed in this state The quality OF
the reading matter was far above
the average and treated much diff
ferently than the conventional style
which has been adopted in Colora>
do for New Years editions. Be-
sides the half. tone cuts were de-
liehtfully clear and perfect, which
together with the pictures OF the
prominent men of the state, set off
in madalion form, presented an en-
semble, which none of the Denver
publications reached. Not the
smallest part of the Gazette's spe>
cial edition was the space it gave
to Mesa county. One entire page,
with the exception of a few cuts
which were more than balanced by
the cuts of the valley in other por>
tons of the paper was devoted to
Mesa county, with great headline
over the top announcing that the
article was OF Mesa county.
The article, and by the way we
may be pardoned for speaking of it
in terms OF the greatest praise on
account of its excellence, was pre-
pared by Mr. r. M. Horn, the reg
ular correspondent OF the Gazette
in this city and the foreman of The
Sentinel. Mr.. Horn has SO through
ly covered the ground that there IS
nothing LETT to be said. Large halt
tones Of the sugar factory and Mr.
O. M. Forry's home and orchard
are printed, besides review of the
agricultural, horticultural and min-
eral resources OF the valley. Grand
Junction comes in for write up in
the general review of over a column
in length. 1t is thus that the news
paper men of this city have always
worked and labored for the public
veal and oftimes with little thanks
for what they have done. 1t
would have cost many hundreds OF
dollars to have purchased what the
Gazette has printed gratuitously
and which Mr.. Horn has written,
if it had to be paid for in dollars
and cents.
A large amount Of the data for
the article was secured from the
records and files of this Office and
the management of The Sentinel
took lively interest in the article
from the time it was first commenc
ed to be prepared.
