The Red Book

A complete and authoritative review
Of the resources of Colorado, Utah
and New Mexico is set forth in the
January number of the Railroad
Red Book" the monthly publication
of the passenger department., Denver
& Rio Grange railroad. The agricul-
tural, live stock, packing, mining.
manufacturing, immigration, good
roads and tourist interests Of this ter
ritory are interestingly portrayed by
persons we'll informed on these spe-
cial subjects, and every important
community along Rio Grande lines
is represented with stories written by
feliable citizens in the various Sec
tiOns.
A telegraph preface, sent In by edi-
tors of principal western daily papers,
is filled with optimism and predic-
tions Of continued prosperity for this
portion of the United States. Nine
teen hundred and sixteen was . pros
porous year for the Intermountain
West, very little OF which WAS due to
the European war, and, with the
signing OF the new 64O-acre home
stead law by President Wilson, indi-
cations are that this healthy business
will continue, war or no war.
The Meeker herald., 1917-01-27

On another page will be found the
special savings account ad Of the
Bank of Meeker. During the past
year the whole nation enjoyed the
greatest prosperity in its history and
no section enjoyed greater prosperity
than this White River valley Of ours;
but, this unparalleled prosperity can
not last; with the close of the Europ-
can war, which is not likely to last
longer than this year, there is bound
to be slump all along the line. or
course, we are not looking for flnan-
cial panic. The new Federal Reserve
banking law makes that impossible /;
but we do look for conditions to arise
during the coming year or two, which
will lessen the big profits Of the farm
and the range. These things may not
happen and we hope they will not;
but in case they should, now Is q good
time to prepare to meet them. Start
n savings account, and you will be
prepared for any adverse condition
that may appear. The saving habit
is good one-under all conditions.

His Last Words

A detective was praising the truth
fulness of women.
IF war bulletins were as truthful
as women" he said, we'd have a
better idea of how this world struggle
is really going.
II remember case the other day
it's interesting in its revelation OF
woman's truthfulness-the case OF a
husband who had disappeared. Ques-
tioning the wife, said to her: And
now, madam, tell me-this is very
important-tell me what your hus-
bands very last words when he left.
His last words the truthful
creature answered with blush,
were, For heavens 8 sake, shut up. ."'

An Obstacle to Peace

Considerable harm has been done
to the cause Of early peace by an arti-
Gle published In the Berlin Lokal An
xeiger, and generally reprinted as
showing the real sentiment Of the
ruling class Of Germany.
- u tbia Article, DR.. Walter Reths-
nau, who is at the head Of a great
German electrical company, declares
that 1--WE began the war year too
soon," and goes on to say that as soon
as peace is established Germany must
begin at once the preparations for the
next war, organizing industries so
that they shall be ready for immedi-
ate mobilization upon the declaration
of war, and adjusting the diplomatic
relations with neutral countries so
that they shall be unable to supply
Germany's enemies with arms and
munitions.
In so far as this article has author
ity, 1t is In direct accord with the
claims made by the entente allies.
that Germany began the war with
deliberate purpose, and that an In
conclusive peace will mean simply
Germany's opportunity for prepara-
ton for another trial of armed force
against her business rivals. DIR.
Rathenau's prominence in the Ger
man business world has given weight
to this article, which has caused u
sensation in France and is being
widely commented upon in the Unit
ed States.
The article, however, must be es-
timated as the expression of certain
class of Germans, rather than that of
the whole German people, or of the
German government. 1t would be
easy to find in the columns of Amer
ican newspapers articles of violent
hostility toward Germany, and other
articles of violent hatred toward Eng
land, neither Of which could fairly be
considered as fairly representative Of
American public sentiment or Of the
official attitude of the American gov
ernment.-Pueblo Chieftain.

speculatars on the stock excbsnre

Speculatars on the stock exchange
are not engaged in legitimate busi-
ness. They do not buy stocks for in
vestment but simply bet on the prices
that stocks will command from day

gamblers sets up "A howl because 1t
