TO GIVE THE BOYS WELCOME.

Members of the Old Dominion Guards
who left the city for the war with
Spain. and who since have been dis
charged from the service. met last night
in the Armory. Mr.. Claud n. Markham
was called to preside. Mr.. Kenny j.
Griffin WAS chosen treasurer. and Mr..
James G. Hutchins was selected rs sec
rotary.
The object of the meeting was to de-
wise ways and means to properly re
ceive tho company when il comes back
10 It's own native soil, it being expected
that the Old Dominion Guard will reach
Portsmouth some time next month.
The boys will attempt to raise suf-
fcient purse to give the returning SOL
diers right royal welcome, and as
it IS one of the very prominent char
acteristics of Portsmouth people to
never do anything except as it ought
to be done. there is no question but
that the boys interested in this move
ment will meet with the success they
deserve.

Colorado apparently has become an
adept in the art OF adapting herself to
circumstances. When the smelter strike
WAS inaugurated there were many who
saw panic and disaster staring the state
in the face. True, it has been an un-
fortunate thing, but 30 far its effect has
not been as far reaching for woe as 1t
was believed it would be.
When the mines close down the miners
become prospectors and by the time they
Resume again many new mines will be
ready for development and subsequent
operation This was true IN Lradville,
where the water forced the big mines to
remain idle Tor many months. The miners
went to prospecting and now rs soon as
Leadville gets well under way ngain she
will be IN aposition to surprise the world.
Since the smelter strike began a larger
per cent OF big strikes have been record
ed Ia the rich veins than have been
brought to the surface before for years.
Not day passes that accounts OF big
fnds do not appear in the paper.
1t can be truthfnlly stated that Colo
rado cannot be held down or cornered in
any manner industrially. The state has
too many resources to realize what total
failure means II the mines ~ere all to be
closed she would still remain the pro
ducer q t500o0.0oo OF agricultural pro.
ducts and u that should fail her coal,
coal oil and other industries would con-
tinue.
At one time she was knosn as the
greatest siiver producing state in the
union. Then the price OF the product
went down. but Colorado did not. She
began to mine gold and soon had the
record as producer OF the yellow metal.
There is not another state in the union
that can recover from disaster Us quickly

When the leaders of the Broad faction
of the silver republicans were charged
with scheme to deliver the silver re-
publican party OF tho state 10 the Nc
Kinley republicans in the Inst cam paign
they denied the charge. Time has proven
she ucharRe well founded. The leaders Of
that faction in Weld county recently
took action to carry out as far as possible
their prrt OF the scheme. At meeting
OF the central committee called for that
purpose it seems that the chairman and
secretary, Messrs Freeman nnd Garigues
attempted to secure the adoption of a
resolution to disband the party aud re-
turn to the republican party. Failing in
shis the chairman md secretary resigned
and the party organization wa~ aban-
doned leaving the members OF the party
nnpiedged to any party. The Teller

10 be sure Colorado boys now in the
Philippines have won everlasting glory
by their bravery, and there is none tc
say that they have not earned the right
to come home on the first available
transport At the first blush 1t may
seem that Colorado has done it's share IN
helping Uncle Sam rule his new pos
sessions, but il the gentlemen who were
behind the Cannon prize fight law will
only go step further and organize a
regiment Of pugilists, the state will have
double need Of glory. 1t is estimated
by sporting experts that there are now
1914 men in Denver who think they can
fight and who inscribs "pugilist" after
their names on hotel registers. They
have been drawn to Colorado by tue
Cannon law which goes into effect to-
morrow, and reports from other states
indicate that many others are coming,
either in Pullman coaches or chingiug
to brake beams, according to their stand
ing In the profession. BY the time the
Colorado boys arrive home, a splendidly
equipped regiment Of prize lighters could
be organized to take the place OF the
war-worn heroes. II any difficulty were
encountered in persuading the prize
fighters to volunteer, pugilists' draft
might bs put into effect before the gent
ry Of the ring had time to leave the state.
Such a regiment would doubtless
strike terror to the hearts OF Aguinaldo
and his followers, and there wsuld be o
general laying down of insurgent arms
and Wholesale suing for peace. With
Col. Jeffries at the head OF the command
mounted on superb, pranclng boiler, as
he made his triumphal entry in Denver,
the Filipinos would realize that escape
would be impossible. Then the boiler
would be handy thing for Col. Jetiries
to crawl inside whilr his followers talked
the unruly 1agals to death. By all
means, 30 long as the Cannon law has
given Colorado colony Of men whose
business ls said to be fighting, let US
make the most Of it.-Denver Republi-
can.
The Republicans idea is good one
but 1t does not 60 quite far enough. As
Colorado owes n heavy debt OF gratitude
to the twelfth general assembly for
rendering possible the achievement OF
such glorious renown AZ that suggested
10y the Republican, 1t would be fitting
and proper that the recruiting officers be
instructed to give to the members Of the
general assembly who voted for the Can
non bill the privilege Of having their
names placed on the muster-roll before
any other recruits are accepted, and they
should also be permitted to march in the
front ranks especially in time OF battle
This suggestion is not prompted by a
desire to show any disrespect to the large
army of intelligent aud highly respect
abls prize fighters, who have invaded
our state by reason of the passage OF the
Cannon bill, but by desire to see our
Legislators properly honored for the
great work they have accomplished for
the good morals and reputation OF the
