Patrons of this paper will kindly
bear with the carrier boys during the
present cold weather. The paper is
issued at the usual hour. despite the
number of pages added. but on ac-
count of the slippery pavements the
boys cannot make over half the time
they ordinarily do. When the streets
are free of ice and mud the carriers
can cover their routes in about al
hour each. Under present conditions
it requires double the time. If any
subscriber mis- ses the paper, if they
will phone the office an effcrt will be
made to forward paper to them the
same night. 1t is the purnose and
desire of The Sentinel to give the
very best service possible. but with
the large number of subscribers on its
lists it takes time to cover the terri
tory.

CONTESTS
were FILED.

Contests were filed yesterday before
the Secretary of State. against the
eleven republican senators elected in
this state. Frauds are alleged by the
conte stees. The move is said to be
simply preparation for retaliation
by the democratic senate in case the
republican house attempts to carry
out the threats of republican leaders,
in the unseating of fourteen demo
Gratis who were elected in Denver.
Among the number whose seats were
contested was Horace T. DeLong OF
the Sixteenth senatorial di strict
which comprises Mesa and Delta
counties and whose home is here in
Grand Junction.

King Anon.. and tn. Cigarette.

An amusing anecdots about the
young king of Spain 10 going the
rounds at Madrid. says the London
Globe. Tho king went one evening to
see the Prince Of Asturias. who WAS
in command of the Palace Guards, and
asked for q cigarette. This being for
bidden. the prince refused, saying:
Your majesty. the guard Is not per
mitted to smoke" Alfonso addressed
himself 40 another onicer and receiv-
ed a similar reply. He then walked
to a private and said sharply: Give
me q cigarette" The soldier replied
81 have no cigarettes, but II you like
to make one here are paper and
tobacco" Thersupon his majesty
turned to the Prince of Asturias and
remarked: We'll. l have found some
one who obeys his king"

stomach for several months. Upon
being advised to use Kodol, l did so,
and words cannot tell the good it has
done me. \ neighbor had dyspepsia

ROCK ISLAND REoALIA CO
Institution Whose Popularity is Rapidly
Spreading.

Institution Whose Popularity is Rapidly
Spreading.
There is no firm whose name is
more favorably known throughout
this section than that of the Rock
Island Regalia company, manufac-
turers of all kinds of uniforms, robes,
badges, banners, swords, sword belts,
belts and caps. n speciality is made
of banner designs for labor unions,
and the labor organizations will
make no mistake in giving this de-
serving company their most hearty
support and cooperation. This com
pany has maintained n most favor
able attitude toward labor and the
union forces are never slow in rec
ogniZing their friends and will aid
in every way possible TO make this
company a still greater success.
Their product is certainly one de-
serving of most liberal patronage by
the unions and citizens of our cities
and the entire country. At this par
ticular time when we have opportun-
ity to place their names before thous-
ands of working men, we take adj
vantage of the opportunity to place
the name of the Rock Island Regalia
company where it well deserves to
be placed-foremost among our lead
ing concerns who are always to be
counted upon as friends of conserva-
tive organized labor. As Labor day
is drawing near we advise all unions
considering the purchase of banners
and badges to take the matter up at
once as we know the Rock Island
Regalia company has already sold
several banners for Labor day.-Tri-
CITY Unionist.

AFFAIR ENDS IN ROMANCE
Fortunate Kansas Young Woman Finally Is
Married.

Married.
Miss Matte Beals, the Wichita,
Kan, telephone girl who won second
choice in the great government land
lottery held ut FL Reno last summer,
is no longer a spinster. She is now
Mrs. Charles w. Paine, the wife of
young man who drew a blank in the
lottery, hadn't money enough to get
away and went to work in Il lumber
yard.
She was married to Paine ten days
ago. after having received thousands
of offers of marriage. Mrs. Paine is
now one of the wealthiest women in
the territory. She filed her claim on
a strip of land a quarter of n mile
wide and a mile long. just south of
the site of the city of Lawton, the
remarkable town which had a popu-
iation of 10000 the day after it was
started.
Lawton grew fast and soon spread
over the hello" girls property. She
cut il into building lots and her claim
is now the finest residence portion of
the city. She has realized about half
a million dollars from the sale of her
lots and still owns Il great many. The
sod house she built on her claim to
hold it. according to law, has been re-
placed by handsome residence. She
and her husband and mother live
there now.
Within thirty days after filing her
claim the young woman received
more than 5000 offers of marriage by
mail ana ever so many by word of
mouth. She laughed at the offers
and attended to selling lots. When
she began to build her fine house
young Paine sold her the lumber.
He fell in love with her and she re-
turned his affection. The courtship
lasted only n short while and now
they are married and as happy as
may be.
Both are great favOrites in Law
ton, and congratulations have been
showered upon them. All Oklahoma
takes a deep interest in the match,
for the girl is full of pluck of the
kind men admire and the husband
is energetic and wide-awalle. He had
to be to win such a bride.

AMERICAN GOODS SOLD CHEAPER
ABROAD THAN IN THIS COUNTRY

That American made goods are
sold cheaper abroad than in this
country and that the high tariff is
responsible for this condition has
been the contention of the democrats
in congress for the past two or three
sessions.
When Chairman Griggs assumed
control of the democratic congress
sional committee he undertook to
prove the claim for the purpose, of
making it an issue in the campaign
for tariff revision.
Mr.. Griggs has succeeded in obtain
ing the information he desired, and
has issued the following statement:
Wanted Discount Sheets.
"a gentleman in the employ of the
democratic congressional committee
has for several months been engaged
in an effort to secure some of the
special discount sheets of leading eX-
port houses.
By the cooperation of several
friendly members he has succeeded
in obtaining the export price list of
about half dozen of the two hun
dred exporting houses in New York.
Although these lists are not the
special discount sheets advertised for
