SYSTEMATIC DESTRUCTION

Details of the systematic sequestration or destruction of mac hinery in the French factories in the Briey valley region is given by the correspondent at Briey of Le Journ- al
 All stocks of merchandise, iron ore, cast iron and steel were requisitioned by Ger man inspectors and engineers, the core spondent says, and then fifteen officers and one hundred men arrived to organize the destruction of the plants. German manu- lecturers visited the region and picked out certain pieces of machinery which they wished placed in their plants and these were shipped immediately to Germany.
 After these selections had been made the demolition of blast furnaces, steam engines, boilers, tools, gearings and cleo tric light fixtures not connected with the actual working of the mines, was carried out, the employees of the plants being com pelled to aid the Germans in their devasta- ton.
 In the meantime the exploitation of the mines was kept in full swing. Prisoners to the number of 15, 1000 were put to work with hardly any rest and under terrible discipline. The output of the mines was larger than that in peace times and, the cor respondent adds this enabled the central powers to hold out for four years.
 When the time for the final allied at tack approached the Germans concentrated 500 heavy guns and 7000 machine guns for the defense of the Briey region, but the herosm of the allied troops rendered these precautions useless and the Teuton dream of universal domination was shattered.

BANDIT TRAIL HAS
 VANISHED IN AIR
 TO ALL APPEARANCES
HUNDREDS OF MEN TRYING TO EARN s15,OOo REWARD OFFERED BY STATE OF SONORA FOR CAP TURF OF BANDITS BUT CLUES SEEM TO HAVE VANISHED

DOUGLAS, Ariz, Dec. 5.-The mar hunt seems to have run into a dead end here today After tracing the five murderers of Customs Collector Caturegh of Agua Prieta and his party into this city last night the officers found themselves baffled in making further progress. They have a number of clews to work on, but Sheriff Guy Welch said this morn ing there was nothing live in the air. He will return to Tombstone to- night.
 The men who have been assisting him in the hunt are: J. D. Kirkpat- rick, Police Officer Ollie Harris, Deputy Sheriffs Percy Bowden, o. E. Patterson and Harry Rafferty and two MeXicans. Chief of Police Jones and his officers have also been lending much aid in the city, the Agua Prieta officers cooperating.
 Governor Gales is still at Agua Prieta. It was rumored today that officers across the line had found some papers containing messages in code used by the outlaw gang in mak- ing their arrangements for the rob bery and that these might serve use ful in establishing the identity of the bandits. but the local officers have no such report.
 However, with the whole city look ing for the men. for whom a reward of $15,OO0 is offered, it seems likely that some good clews will come to light soon unless the men have sue ceeded in getting to Chihuahua, where on account of the revolutionary con ditiOn of the state now they could probably avoid detection.

The action of the city council in check ing the matter of new paving for Bisbee up to the people for vote on bond issue is surely to be commended. This city has but few streets and these are subjected to a heavy continuous traffic. Our paving is in very bad shape With the canyon paved from city limit to city limit and all side streets also, the improvement will not only add to the value of property and help traffic conditions, but it will also add great ly to the beauty of the city and its spirit and reputation as the best and most pro- gressive city in the state.

That the peace congress will never cede back her lost colonies to Germany Is cer- tain. And humanity, not greed or stern ness, will dictate this policy. Germany cruel and inhuman treatment of the poor natives of her African possessions passed all human conception During the past ten years, under German colonial rule, the Hottentot population of south Africa was reduced by death, cruelty and greed from l60,000 to about 10000 These natives were simply slaughtered right and left by German officers and soldiers for the mere lust of killing. Proof in plenty has been secured from many sources of these asser- tions. It is related by an American mis- sionary that upon the occasion of Ger man officer pointing his pistol at poor native woman and threatening to kill her, that she folded her arms and cast her gaze downward and smiled sadly and said, It is we'll. /" Therefore it Is not we'll that Ger many should retain control over the life and happiness of the people of these Afri- can states.

 dog sled in Alaska and buffalo cart in the Philippines. The allowance for travel by railway train Is seven cents, and the most modern of all forms of transportation IS classed with the most antiquated solely be- cause the service" recognizes only two methods of travel-''by train and other wise" The airplane is otherwise, of course, and so draws only the Accent rate.

According to Secretary McAdoos report the war cost us about fifteen billions of which about six and one-half billions have been placed in permanent improvements, loans to our allies, etc. Thus over six billions of national wealth is gone forever, swallowed up in the maw of the war. This is great price to pay, but the liberty and security of the world comes high. It IS not as great price as we would have had to pay finally if we had held back and shirked our duty The burden of this great expenditure will rest heavily upon the nation for many years, but the admir- ation of the world for our courage and un- selfishness and its thankfulness for what we did in its darkest hour will also remain as a strength and inspiration many long years after the last dollar of this enormous debt has been paid.

Those devoted men and women who have been carrying on war and Red Cross work for so long are still at their posts and still go, to and fro upon their er- rands of help and mercy. The ending of actual hostilities has not dimmed their ardor nor has it hidden their duty from their earnest gaze. There is so much yet to do. Our soldier boys. during the period of demobilization and occupation of con quered lands, will need Red Cross and United War Work aid more even than they needed it during actual war. And the re- turning allied prisoners, how priceless will this aid be to them, in spiritual as well as a material way.
