Local Citizens Deplore Loss of Chief Executive WILLIAM DE MILLES PRODUCTION and unselfish devotion to public duty. Similar attributes poured into San Francisco from all over the nation, indicative of the great love that the people had for the stricken president. Never before in the history of the nation has so profound grief been manifested, and never since the untimely death of Abraham Lincoln has the nation felt the loss was so irreparable and detrimental to the welfare of the country. Labor as a mass lias also felt that the loss was hardly 'one that could be afforded, and many of the greatest leaders of laboring classes seemed broken and aged a few hours after the announcement. The shock seems to strike terrifically all classes alike. Like other cities', Provo feels a peculiar grief over the presidents death. His recent visit to Utah is still fresh in the memory of the city, and his pleasing personality and his achievements are not forgotten. Telephone calls have poured into The Provo Post office, and a singular hush has been manifested when the news was broken. The loss, as elsewhere is from the expression of local citizens felt deeply.
