Rome is in the deepest mourning

of the Sacrament for three days, to be
viewed by the public. Throughout
these first six days following death,
solemn high masses will be constantly
celebrated by the cardinals. who will
have reached Rome. The full cere-
monies will last for nine days.
During the last three days five sol
emn absolutions will take place. On

cardinals selected by the members of
the Sacred College.

MUzLLE CALAMITY HOWLERS

Bring on a muzzle for Calamity
Mann, the Republican leader of the
house. Throughout the entire
country there is a steady improve
ment in the business situation and
financial outlook.
The sentiment of the entire bust
ness and financial world is hopeful
in the extreme. In consequence of
the marked change in sentiment
the Washington correspondents
who are in touch with the national
political affairs declare that the
revival has deprived the Republi-
cans of a political issue.
But as 500 as the currency bill
was signed and the bankers of the
nation began to study the measure,
there was a change in sentiment
toward the law which really repre-
sented the work of the best brains
of all parties and is the fruit of the
labor of years. The business re-
viVal following the restoration of
confidence in financial circles was
immediate.
The bank clearings of the entire
country last week showed an i'm
provement. Trade reports from
the various centers show that the
outlook is better than for many
months. Heavy imports of meat
promise a reduction in the cost of
living.
Even figures as to the unem.
ployed are not discouraging. The
figures of the New York commits
sioner of labor show that while
there were more men out of work
last year than in most recent years,
still the figures of 1908, during a
Republican r Of prosperity re-
corded more idle men than 1918.
The outlook for the coming year
could not be brighter. 1t is painful
for some Of the stand-patters to
e such an unexpected outcome.
But in time they will admit, al
though with many wry faces, that
the nation is prospecting. Good
times are at hand regardless of the
walls of Calamity Mann and his
other apostles of woe.-Sacramento
Union.
