Four little youngsters in a free

were going at it in pretty good style
till some one called out that police
man was coming and the little pugil-

one who saw the fight knew just how
it started. They said they saw two

There having been no recognized
head to the other sheet for a per
iod of several months, it could hard
ly be expected that this paper would
waste editorial ammunition on cheap
skate reporter. 1t took a period of
two weeks for the entire crew of that
nondescript sheet to recover from
one dose and from the amount of
bowling still being done by it, the
shot is still ranking. In a period
of ten years or more, that paper con
tinuing the policy of its predeces-
sors, has been devoted mainly to
telling the people that The Sentinel
was all in and that its influence was
nil. etc. To keep that little tale 60

ministrations of that sheet If the
same policy is continued, we may be
expecting another change. Every
tune, blackleg and pimp, has edited
that paper in its past history and all
were devoted to the policy of doing
The Sentinel up. Some of these have
walked out of town, one committed
suicide, several were helped out of
town by their friends and one at last
skipped TO California with another

The Rio Grande passenger depart
ment will be compelled to take equal
ly as great interest in seeing that its
other trains, beside the Scenic Limit
ed, get over its road on time, as the
concern expressed to see the Scenic
Limited do so. The patrons of the
other trains, the local passenger traf-
fic of the road, is as much to be
considered as those who are travel

the Rio Grande only receives a pro-
portionate share of the tariff on a
long haul. Everybody is pleased to
see the Scenic Limited on the line,
but they are equally anxious not to

cal patrons is of just as much import
ance, as is the business of the passen-
gers patronizing the Limited and they
are entitled to just as much con
consideration. There is considerable
complaint that the Limited lays
everything out, in order to make
good on its schedule.

About the most pathetic thing one
reads of and about San Francisco at
the present time is the attempt to
talk flight dope by the sports, as If
such a thing could find place in San

very little, that is sporty in the talk.
1t reads like a great endeavor to ap-

There is every reason in the world
why we should attempt to have the
government make the change in the
name of Grand Valley. What we

been used as a stepping stone by an
other community to boost its lands.
There is no comparison whatever be-
tween the lands lying about Para

as the real Grand Valley. There was
deliberate purpose in having the

A different feeling is apparent over
the probable success of the Fair
this year. Last year it seemingly
was all doubt. There had been too
great success the previous year and
the people took 1t for granted that
it would necessarily have to be a
success, whether any work was done
to make 1t so or not. lesson was
learned, and costly one at that The
Fair is not being allowed to drift
this year. Active and well timed
work is being done in its behalf every
day and there is every assurance that
1t will be a greater success than ever
before. The danger period for any
enterprise is when abundantly sue
cessful. There is species of intoxi-
cation goes with success that is most
dangerous and usually works to the
undoing of any enterprise, If carried

This is the issue. Before the trust
question became the dominant one it
was not so important what mans cor
porate connections were, but when this
question is the supreme question of
the hour, the party organization must
be above suspicion, and the democrats
of Illinois and all other states are in

who aspire to the position of party
managers. The people cannot be fool

them is sure to learn of it's mistake

CoweII this morning, offering to come

been given out. 1t is rumored at the

this is not yet verified.

amount of more or less excited contrO-
versy about the wisdom OF landing blue
jackets from the Denver and the pro
priety of their recall 70 the cruiser,
there is an absolute c, nsensus of agree
ment on one point amely, that this
landing proved a wonderfully distinct
and deciding influence towards pro-
curing the offer to surrender from the
insurgents.
Ready 10 strike.
This offer was ma7e at a moment
when the concentration of insUrgent
forces at Havana province had been
accomplished presumably
in readiness for the much predicted
upon Havana city.
All Satisfied.
On this account. the landing is an
extremely satisfactory incident to Pres

Commander Colwell and his officers
and crew, to the public of Havana. and
to Americans. The fact that
the insurrection has been held up for
