Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1906-02-01

Copenhagen, Jan. 30.-The death OF
King Christian yesterday afternoon
has plunged half the courts of Europe
into the deepest mourning and brought
a sense of personal loss as well as Of
sincere grief to everyone throughout
Denmark, reaching even to the hum
blest cottage the evidences of which
are shown everywhere. 1t has cast a
pail over the palaces of the monarchs
of Great Britain, Russia Norway and
Greece.
The quick taking away of the dis,
tinct personality, who has for so long
been the center of interest not only il
his own country but throughout the
civilized world, almost paralyzed the
community and unnerved the business
world of Denmark Even late last
night men of affairs were only recov'
pring from the shock and beginning
TO prepare for the changed conditions.
Every flag in the city is at half
mast, all places of amusement are
closed, and the people walk the
streets as though they were passing
through the chamber of death itself.
Nothing is definitely known regard
ing the arrangements for the funeral
and it will, necessarily, be some time
before anything regarding these ar
engagements is officially announced.
kilograms and cablegrams Of con,
dolence are pouring in, including mes
sages from all the sovereigns oil
Europe and the Danish colonies. Prem
Ter christensen last night rendered
the resignation of the cabinet to the
new king. who expressed the wish
that the present ministry continue to
carry on the affairs of the government.
Both houses of parliament will as
semble today, when their respective
presidents will formally announce the
death of King Christian. At 8 p. m,
the members will assemble in the hall
of Folkething to receive the royal
message announcing the accession OF
Frederick VII. Public announce
ment of the Death of King Christian
and the accession of King Frederick
will be made at noon from the balcony
of the Amalienborn palace.
It has been known for some time
that King Christians health was fail
ing. His physicians recommended a
change of air and the king decided to
act upon their advice. 1t was his In
tention to go south in the near future,
accompanied by the dowager empress
of Russia.

ing the Republic against some for
eign foe. be reminded by an inscrip-
ton on the colors floating over him,
that under this flag the gun was fired
that killed his. father at GettysburgT
These were eloquent words, but as
we have said, Sumner was ahead of his
times with his well-meant resolution.
Only seven years had elapsed since the
echoes of the guns had ceased to trem-
BILE over the bloody fields of slaughter.
The tears Of the widows and orphans
of the dead Union soldiers had not
ceased to flow. The bitterness of sec
tional hate and prejudice was still fresh
at the North and her people were not
ready for reconciliation, or even for
right and justice and fairness Many.
things have been done in late years
which would have aroused the North
to a pitch of ungovernable rage IL they
had been done score of years earlier.
The time was not ripe for the return of
kindly and fraternal feelings
1t was perhaps well for Charles Sum-
ner that he did not die just then while
such bitterness existed against him In
his own State. He did not live to see
the accomplishment of his desires. but
he did live to see Massachusetts, repent
her hasty resentment and to see
later Legislature expunge from the re-
cords the bitter resolution of censure
adopted in 1872. That much. at least.
was permitted him. and no doubt he
foresaw in that act the beginning of
the time when even more than he
hoped for would come to pass. Many
and great are the changes which have
taken place in our country in thirty
four years.

TIMES CHANGES.

How times change, and how bitter
memories are softened by the flight
of years, is exemrlfied in the case of
Charles sumner. We have little call to
euIogize him, but in some ways. and
in the right direction, he was years
ahead of his time. In 1872 he intro
duced in Congress a resolution direct
ing that the names of all the battles
won by the Union army over the~Con-
fcdcrates should be removed from the
rcgimentdl colors.
For this the Senator was bitterly
denounced in Congress. 1t WAS de-
cIared that the resolution vas AN in
suit to the heroic soldiers of the Union
and Il degradation of their victories and
wel-carned laurels." His own state OF
massachusetts,. through its Legislature,
passed solemn resolution Of cenaure
upon him.
in after years Carl SEIZURE delivered
n culogy on Sumner in the course of
which ne used this language; The
freshman, when hShting for old Eng
land at Waterloo. was not to behold
on the red cross floating over him the
lander, when standing in the trenches

BANK EXAMINATIONS.

A member Of the forthcoming Hi
nois LEGISLATURE Is going to introduce
= bill regarding bank examiners and
their duties which will contain some
important features. Among these Will

receive any fees; another, that they
ehali hold their positions under civil
service rules; another, that they shall
have assistants who are experts in
values and shall also be experts in
handwriting, and still another provis-
ION will be that examinations of banks
shall include a valuation of all securi-
ties held as collaterals.
With one exception these provisions
seem to be sound and good. and that
exception, as The New York CONNER
cial pertinently remarks. lis the COM
pulsory qualification as experts in
handwriting by all assistant examin-
srs Just what is a Handwriting ex-
oertY Are not most of all of the per-
sons posing under that name merely SO
self-styled? Can one in fifty of them
prove his experiences by any other
means than his own claims or preten-
aioas? And are there any recognized
standards that make one man an ex-
merit and another a non-expert? If H.
unois were to persist in making sucn

ultimately show up with queer lot

The Commercial is certainly correct
In its comments on the handwriting
expert. for there is more humbug in
that than in almost anything we think
Of. We have read of SO many in
stances in connection with court trials
where these experts" testified in ex-
act opposition to each other that we
have concluded that there cannot be i
Great deal of confidence placed in Their
