COREA NOT MOURNING.
Thought That Prince lto's Murder Was
Plotted at Seoul.

Seoul, Corea, Oct 2S.-It is evident
from the attitude of considerable sec
ton of the Corean population that the
assassination of Prince Ito was not
unpleasing. Those comprising this Sec
ton represent the element which is
now deprived Of opportunities former
ly offered here and. they are agitat!ng
for further violence. Viscount Some, the
Japanese resident general in Corea. is
much disturbed by the reports coming
in regarding the attitude of some of the
officials and others who were formerly
closely connected with the court of the
Emperor.
1t is now believed that the entire
plot was Matched in Seoul and the clos
est investigation is proceeding to dis
cover the instigatOrs of Prince 1tns
murder. 1t is said that there is reason
to believe that several prominent Co
assassination, lent themselves to a Sc
cret agitation and encouraged the peo-
pie in general in the opinion that the
sympathy of foreign countries would
he shown them if the situation were
forcibly brought to their attention.
It is now known that secret societies
existed to spread the propaganda that
Prince Ito's outward friendship of
Corea was merely a blind. The report
also was widely circulated that japan
proposed to confiscate the property of
all Cnreans. depose the Emperor and
drive the people into the sea.

"When this warfare failed, the

statements were absolutely untrue.
Still I nurse no spirit of revenge or
malice against these misguided men.

str,1cted to continue the investigation
until we catch the money givers high

"HamiIton and Missoula have already
shown their disa pproval of this battle

NORTH PARK COUNTY

The welfare of the people living il
North Park calls for the passage of tn.
bill pending in the legislature to estab-
lish the county of North Park, to be
composed of that part of Larimer county
which, lying west of the Medicine Bow
North Park. :.
In summer. or in other words. under
the most favorable conditions, the in
habitants of North Park have to cross
the Medicine Bow range-almosta lis ha d
to cross as the continental divide-in
order to reach the county seat at Fort
Collins. In winter this range is impass-
able, and consequently a resident of
North Park who wishes to reach the
county seat must go through a part of
Wyoming, around the Northern end of
the Medicine Bow range.
To perpetuate this condition, which
makes it necessary for a citizen of Colo
RADIO to go out of the state in order to
attend court or transact other business
at his county seat, would be wrong, in
view of the fact that the North Park
country has population and wealth
enough to maintain a county govern
of its own. The people of that section
are asking that the proposed county be
organized; and since they would have
to bear the expense involved in Main
tanning new county government, their
wish ought to control.

Star Man Eats Crow

During the heat of the campaign in the Yukon the editor of the Whitehorse Star said things about George Black, a candidate, that he perhaps could not prove. and Black, who was defeated, demanded public retraction and an apology, else he would take such pro ceediHgs as the law provides in such cases.
 White decided to apologize. What was worth doing was worth doing we'll and here is the way he did it:
 "To George Black, Esq.,, Dawson,
 "Dear sir:-Not being lawyer and, therefore, not able to conduct his own case in court, the editor of the Star hereby tenders to you his apology and retraction Of the offensive, Libel ous and Criminal assertions published in Said Newspaper Ou the 10th ot January. Owing to the fact that the ground is covered with snow as with a mantle, bblicalIy speaking, you will please excuse the formality of the ed itor rubbing his nose in the dust and will take the statement of d willingness to do 70, were conditions favorable, for the deed.
 "Tbe statements you characterize 'ab- solutely false and without foundation were wired to the Star from Dawson in telegram signed News and you will accommodate the editor of the Star if you will call at that scissors and paste emporium and lick the Star correspon- dent. TO insure getting the right man you had better take punch at the whole bunch. eff this can be con- strued as an attempt to incite riot, he apologies for it, too.J
 "Anyhow, the editor of the Star apologies, retracts and hereby re, quests his readers to eXpunge, wipe out from their black boards or their think tanks, the Libelous and Criminal statements contained in the issue of said newspaper of the 18th of January Angels could do no more.
