The new clock which The Sentinel has
installed in the postoffice, which gives
the time from the U. s. Observatory, was
placed In position yesterday in the post
office and the employees OF the Office re.
port that it has attracted great deal Of
attention and was a source Of satisfac-
ton, not only to the Office force, but to
the general public. There ia no reason
whatever why there should not be a
uniformity in the time OF this city.
| Whistles should blow at one time and
to the lahoring people of this city. Set
your time pieces by the new clock. 1t
can be seen from the street and is in a
most convenient position for consulta-
tion within the postofiice.
The Slogan, new paper devoted to
the cause of socialism, appeared on the
streets Of the city today The Slogan
has for its editor A. M. Grahame, a
newspaper man OF experience aud a
writer Of ability. Its business manager
is w L Lowry, well known in this city
as young man OF push and energy.
The Slogan believes that it meets a want
in the cause OF socialism and will work
| for that cause in western Colorado. The
Sentinel has only the kindliest feelings
| toward the new publication and hopes
it may succeed. There are nun erous
papers published in Mesa county and it
would seem that the field is pretty we'll
occupied, but there is always room at
the top and that is where The Slogan
hopes to place itself.
Prof w. A. E. de la Matyr of Hous-
| TOP, Texas, formerly of this city, is one
among number OF pleasant visitors TO
the city. Prot de la Matyr was former
ly principal of the schools OF this city
when Prof. Cutlery was superintendent,
and was one OF the best teachers the
schools have ever had. He and his wife
are just rrturning from a two months
"trip to California and are visiting with
his daughter. Miss o. B. de la Matyr Of
this city. Prof. de la Matyr is the prin-
cipal OF one OF the ward schools in the
city OF Houston, which contains sixteen
separate departments and over nine
hundred students. He likes life in the
| southern city, where he has been for a
| number Of years, and will doubtless re-
| main there as his relations with the fac
ulty Of the schools and his friends are
| most pleasant Houston has, with its
environments, population of about TO-
600 people and is a city full OF interest.
Prof. de la Matyr is surprised that this
city has made such wond erful improve
ments in the last several years and he
believes, as he always has, that it is des-
tined to become large city. He will
make a trip into the mountains before
returning to his duties, and try his hand
with a gun again. Prof. de la Matyr is
being greeted by many old friends in the
city who are always glad to welcome
