Rubbing 1t In.

Ex-Secretary Elihu Root was talk
ing about the humanity Of judges.
"They are humane men," he said.

ries of the pain that they have sui

"That is why 1 cannot credit a
story that was told me the other

How a Soldier Won a Wife.

There is a romantic love story in
connection with General Sir Mi
chael Biddulph, the gentleman
usher of the black rod" who died
recently in London. Sir Michael
was one of the few soldiers-out-
side of fction-who captured their
wives at the point of the bayonet.
It came about thus: During the Cri-
mean war, throughout which Sir
Michael served with much honor,
being present at the battles both OF
the Alma and Balaklava, the late
seblack rod" was told off to take
charge Of Captain Stamati, the Rus
sian commandment of Balaklava fort.

AT the beginning of the caD'paign
The Sentinel undertakes to maintain
the attitude it has delegated to itself
in the past few campaigns, of leaving
personalities in the background, so
far as possible. Nothing has ever been
gained by villidcation or abuse. This
city and county suffered sufficiently
in that relation in its pioneer period
and this paper congratulates itself in
having helped to make such campaign
ing odious. That it is obsolete is
unquestionable, to those who know
somewhat of modern methods in use
to present the issues to the public.

So fa- as the selection of county
officers is concerned. the local features
of this campaign have naught to do
with the Federation of Miners.
The democratic party is Just as broad

oppression by anyone, whether 1t be
the Miners unions that perform those
acts. or alliances of any sort. Neither

The story of ''Ry Right of Sword"
fascinates from the opening speech. Ii
concerns the adventures of young
American named Richard Hamilton,
who goes to Russia and is mistaken
by beautiful Olga Petrovich for her
recreant brother Alexis. In order
to defend her Hamilton cultivates
the Likeness. and has many stirring
adventures. In the end all turns out
happily with the final scene on the eve

An arithmetical calculation could
be conducted in this wise. Suppose
the clerk S office earned $40, 900 a year.
The salary of the clerk. for matters
of argument, could pc placed at $500
his deputy at $1,000; another assistant
at 5000. The total salaries would be
$4,000. Should tie balance of the $40,
900 or $500 be used in payment of sal
aries. just so it did not exceed the re-
venues of the office or should the $500
per year be covered into the treasury /?

taking it as personal insult that Mr.
Frost is proposing to investigate the
condition of county affairs. That
gentleman has been extremely fair
about the matter. His personal ex-
plantations of the reasons for his un-
dertaking such task. ought to be
entirely satisfactory to any reasonable
person. He charges nothing. He says
he shall present matters as he finds
them, and permit the people to mea-
sure the shortcomings of the conduct
of county business.
The daily sentinel. [volume] (Grand Junction, Colo.) 1893-current, 1904-09-15

The board of county commissioners
certainly cannot call it wise author
ization to permit the clerk to expend
the entire revenues of his office, so
that they do not exceed his income:
Or should they permit the sum return
ed by the clerk to he what in his judg-
ment was correct. An arbitrary per-
centage of the revenues of that Office
81 Guild be exacted. In fact all, monies
in excess of the salaries of the assis-
tants provided by the board should
be returned.

tion of power by any body of citizens
as against the legally authorized
avenues of the law. 1t might as well
be understood now as later, that the
republican local sheet is attempting
to create a sentiment against democra-
cy by infaming against conditions
that do not exist in this county and
where the question has not been raised
save by that paper.

Every possible inducement was
made to induce Charles f. Schrader to
withdraw his name as candidate be-
fore the democratic convention. That
this extraordinary interest in his re-
tirement did not come from democra-
tic sources is more than sufficient ar
gument that he is considered most
dangerous opponent.

All the silk glove republican crowd
is turned down in this state. Com

1t would be rank treason for anyone
