AT LAST, THE HEIR.
! q o q AAAAAnAAA q o q o q

After weeks of waiting an heir to
the Spanish throne was born Friday
and the people of Spain are widely
celebrating the momentous event to
which they have looked forward. To
the American mind there is some
thing extremely ludicrous in the fiub-
dub and flummery that the Spanish
have been indulging in. Spain is
more bound by tradition than any ma
tion in the world today. and tradi-
tion made possible, even inevitable. n
publicity such as is unknown in any
other land. The ceremonies attend
ant upon the announcement of the ar
rival of the son and heir seem laugh
able to us. For example, the Assoc
lated press says:
when at length DR.. Glendenning,
the young English doctor who at
tended the queen, announced that the
birth was a matter of only n few
hours, urgent messages were sent to
the premier. Senior Maura, and his
colleagues of the cabinet, the military
governor of Madrid, the members of
the diplomatic corps, the grandees,
the knights of the principal orders of
chivalry. the leading military and
civil authorities and all the ladies
and gentlemen attached to the court.
Soon all the officials were gath
cred in full uniform and wearing the
glittering insignia OF their decorations
in the grand reception room gorge
ously draped with tapestry, adjoln-
ing the royal private apartments,
among those present being the Amer
lean minister. Mr.. Collier. There, In
suppressed excitement and hushed eX-
pectancy, they waited by the move
ment of heavy curtains at the end Of
the apartments and the opening of
the door leading from the royal
rooms"
1t is quite evident that an attempt
was made to include everybody worth
while in the list of those Invited to
the palace to hear the news We note
with regret however, that some i'm
portant people wer omitted. For ex-
ample no mention is made of the
Press club of Madrid, the Commercial
club, the University club or even the
Ladies' Literary club. And surely
the presidents OF the baseball leagues
should have been asked, together
with the star batteries and the pas
senger agents of the railroads run
ming into Madrid. These omissions
must rot be attributed. though. to
any intent on King Alfonso's part to
give offense. 1t should be remember
ed that he is still little new at the
father business.
Seriously. what a lot of nonsence 1t
all is, and how trying 1t must have
been to the young queen, born and
reared in England. where there is a
strict regard for the privacy Of even
a monarch's home. She is, after all,
a woman. The pangs of maternity
are no less to her than they are to
the humblest mother in Spain; and
the joys are less, as for reasons of
state she will be deprived of many
of moth erhood's joys. Other hands
will clothe and bathe her infant; 9TH

HE WILL ANSWER ON HIGH.
The Man Who Confessed to Murder
ing a Hunter ON Grand Mesa
Years Ago is Beyond the
Pale of Human


Frank Bartlett. who while lying in
a hospital in Indio. California, suffer-
ing from an incurable disease con
fessed TO the murder of Fred Thejl-
man on old Grand Mesa quarter of
century ago, is dead.
Before the Great Bar on High he
must answer for that deed. not be-
fore the bar of worldly court.
A message received at Delta a few
days ago conveyed the information
that Bartlett had died and the mes
sage which was from his nurse stated
that the man had passed away peace
fully. feeling that God had forgiven
him.
For twenty-four long years Bart
lett kept his awful secret. Follow
ing a quarrel between the two men
who were camping together on the
lonely mountain Bartlett slipped
quietly into the camp and without
warning shot Thielman to death. The
circumstances were such that It was
believe Thielman had accidentally
killed himself while cleaning a gun
and through al the years that have
followed Bartlett had never been sus-
pected of the crime. When he saw
that death was near he confessed a
few weeks ago and declared that
from the day of the murder in Sep
tember 1883 until he let the world
know his guilty secret he had never
known a day of peace. His mental
sufferings were perhaps ample pun
ishment for his crime.

POLITICAL sPEoULATIoNs.

President Roosevelt has again said
that he would not be candidate for
the presidential chair to succeed him
self. Men prominently mentioned as
Republican candidates are William
II. Taft and Elihu Root. For can
didate of the people, Taft would run
well, as he has made and kept friends
wherever he lived. Root, while not
a man that would make audiences
rise up and cheer, is, nevertheless a
deep thinker, and perhaps the ablest
man in the Cabinet. He has many
ideas that are far ahead of his time,
and for this reason he is little under
stood by the people of the present
day. Root sees in South America a
great field for American endeavor.
He sees the many opportunities that
are slipping past the merchants of
this country. His idea OF merchant
marine has met with chilly recep-
tion, It is said, by some of the Wash
ington diplomats. He recently re-
marked that England and other Eu-
ropean countries were the only coun-
tries running mail or merchant ves-
sells regularly to South American
ports. thus securing all the business
from the South American countries,
while the United States has very few,
If any, ships entering the South
American ports.
Taft is also a man of ability. His
administration in the Philippines was
successful, and he is well capable of
bringing warning factions together
under peaceable roof.
Now on the opposite side is VIII
