ceived at Washington, Congress re-
Gently decided to authorize in the flu
ture an industrial census, to be taken
every five years.
According to the latest general cen
sus, Colorado is accredited with sup
porting over 1000 industries, and this
number. has probably increased since
the regular census was taken.

is treated in an impartial manner The
facts given by the owners are under
stood to be confidential as concerns the
individual mandatory. Only after
the figures obtained are collated and
the total capital. labor eXpediture and
produce value for the state are OBJ
tanned will they be made public.
The schedule of general questions
asked in each case covers the nature
of organization of the concern; the
product turned out; capital invested;
number of hands employed and salary
paid; the cost of material; value of
product miscellaneous expenses and
freight as added to cost of material.
A special inquiry is then made into
the facts of each particular industry.

prepared.
A special inquiry will also be con-
Quoted into the wage problem. Each
employer will be asked to show by his
weekly pay roll the number of work
ers, the total salary list, and the scale

Value of Good Teeth.

In advocating the employment of
public dentists to attend to the teeth
of school children, American Medicine
says: If it is true that, generally
speaking. good teeth are necessary to
good health and long life, and If, also.
a large and growing proportion of citi-
zens have not good teeth. then it fol
lows that the fact is one of public con-
cern. Is 1t not, for instance, of as much
importance to the community that
workmen should have good masticating
and digesting powers as that there
should be $20,OOO.000 city halls. public
parks. expositions, ETC.? This little. or
large. realization of preventive medi-
cine has so far got into our American
minds that we have ordered the SOL
diers' teeth to be attended to and his
governmental service be SO much en-
hanced. But the soldier Is at last
paid by civil worker, and as to his
teeth and service We are entirely indif-
ferent,

PROSPECTS OF PEACE
STRONG INFLUENCES AT WORK.

Russian Minister Thinks Japan Can
Afford to Be Generous-Furthe
Fighting Would Only Profit Rivals
Of Both Countries.
ST Petersburg, March 20.-While
Emperor Nicholas. whose word is final,
still declines to abandon the prosecu-
tion of the war, and the government
mainstains its ability to continue the
conflict, the Associated Press is in a
position to state that powerful influ-
ences, including several of the en-
perors own ministers. are now
strongly urging that the time has
come to indicate to Japan Russia's
desire for peace upon a reasonable
basis.
Should Japan then attempt to i'm
pose too onerous conditions, these in
fuences argue that, in view Of the uni
versal wish to see the bloody conflict
ended Russia's position will be
strengthened abroad by the alienation
of sympathy from Japan and the situa-
tion at home improved when the ma
ton is made to understand that the
emperor's pacific proposals have been
met with impossible terms.
One of the emperor's ministers in
conversation with the Associated
Press said:
1--WE have suffered by utter defeat
on land and sea. We can, however.
still continue the war. But both coun-
tries have suffered losses in both blood
and treasure. and 1t would only profit
the rivals of both were we to fight on
until one or the other is exhausted.
Russia has had a hard task fighting
the war against such adversaries 5000
miles from home, and l contend she
can make a dignified peace without
glory, but not without honor.
"As the victor on land and sea,
Japan can afford to remember, as Bis
marck did at the conclusion of the
Austro-Prussian war. that two coun-
tries which must live through the long
future as neighbors may need each
others friendship. Japan may con
slider the time propitious, on account
of the situation in European Russia,
to try and crush us. Suppose, for the
sake of argument, she succeeded in
finally forcing humiliating peace: II
could not be more than an armed
truce Russia is too big and powerful
to retire permanently from the field.
The clouds at home will eventually
roll away. With the army and navy
reorganiZed in five, ten or fifteen years
there will come inevitably our re.
venge. No permanent peace is posi-
BILE now or later unless Japan is rea-
sonable."

corted him to his home on the mesa in

ton, which was delivered from stand
in front of the building, Governor
Adams said:
at is impossible for me to express
what is in my heart on this day as a
result of the great ovation you have
given me. You have made this day for
me one of the proudest of my life, and
one that l will remember forever.

publicans, but as citizens of this state,
in upholding the laws, constitution and

Republican, stood like stone wall,
like the fortress on the Rhine after
which he was named.
