DURANGO. Colo, Feb. -Four hundred and two thousand, five hundred and six dry tons of Colo rado ore were treated in the plants of the American Smelling and Re- fining Company during the last year, according to a statement from Manager R.

This brought total of $13,- 055,581, to Colorado mining men,
 In spite of possibility of decreas- ed prices for ores, the outlook for mining in the future is considered bright by mining men. Manufac- turers of mining tools are returning to this business instead of war work and the release of many mine experts from army service is ex- pected to bring new mining activi- ties.

Prepared for Defeat.
What We of the allied nations SO
fatally fail to realize is that Germany
Is prepared to cope with even the
most disastrous defeat, and with the
most drastic peace based upon that
defeat. She has long ago prepared
for defeat as thoroughly as she pre-
pared for war. The machinery of her
industry is unharmed, ready for
operation. Her power for qubGk in
dustrial recuperation is immeasurably
greater than she has led US to believe,
or than We have foreseen.
Her commercial agents, who are
always diplomatic agents also. are
today active in Warsaw. in Moscow,
in Teheran, in Kabu. in Pekin; nor
are they absent from France and
Italy, from England and America
Along the crossways of Switzerland.

ton. coupled with intrigue In the

yond anything within the range of
Anglo-Saxon perspicuity or practice.
1t is fact we have ignored. but a

and Africa. Germany counts upon
this efficiency for the accomplishment

Says Adj. Gen. Paul

Adj. Gen. H. ]. Paul, who came
here with Governor McKelvie yes
terday, declared that the work of

argument for the reorganization of
the Nebraska National guard.
IF you had had companies of ma
tional guardsmen in Omaha they
could have been called together in
an hour Sunday afternoon and the
devastation would have been avoid
ed" he said.
THE only reason you haven't yet
organized a company of guards here
is the lack of interest of Omaha
business men. The law allows it
and liberal appropriations are pro-
vided for this purpose.
mo further delay should be al
lowed in the organization of COM
pany or two in Omaha. The Audi

Scores City Administration.
One who is acquainted with con-
ditions in Omaha during the past
few months could not be very much
surprised at what has happened. 1t
has been matter of every day oc-
currence that those who have most
to do with the moulding of public
opinion have constantly engaged in
petty chickering's and a criticism of
the local officials which could not
result in anything but an utter dis
respect for those who are charged
with the responsibility of enforcing
the law.
l deem it of utmost importance
that the good people of Omaha
should at once organize their minds
to discourage the activities of those
who are constantly attempting to
bring reproach upon public officials
and join in a common support of
those who have been duly elected
to responsible public positions.
One of tine most alarming features
of the situation is the extent to

which young boys were engaged in
the destruction of property and the
violence that characterized the riot.
We can have little hope for the flu
ture if such acts reflect a condition
which is common in any community.
People of mature judgment realize
that when such youthful law violat-
ors are encouraged, there is no as
surance of protection of eitheraife or
property, and these boys of today
are to be the dependable citizens of
tomorrow. so unless something is
done to direct their thoughts in the
right channels, we may expect a
worse condition in years to come.
Urges Respect for Law.
The correction Of these misguid-
ed youths must begin in the home
and should be carried on through
our entire educational system. |
have constantly urged the people of
our state to cultivate a respect for
the law, and this applies perhaps
most particularly to the younger
people.
l shall not attempt to fix the
blame for all that has happened. l
think it would perhaps be as fair to
criticise the one who applauded the
acts of the rioters as to criticise
those who actually did the work,
but there can be no doubt that this
should stand as an everlasting les
son to the people of the state that
it is their duty to cooperate with
public officials in the enforcement
of the laws.
| hardly think that any one could
have anticipated the developments
of the riot. However, when | was
in Omaha last Friday, | observed
conditions here and instructed Chief
Flyers to come at once to Omaha
and offer the assistance of the state
law enforcement division to the Of
ficials of the city. | find also that
as soon as assistance was called for
by the city at the time when the
riot was in progress, immediate ac-
ton was taken by those who were in
charge in my absence, and as re-
suit of it quite prompt relief was
brought through federal sources.
Should Have Constabalary.
The state has no national guard
at the present time, though several
companies are being organized. The
delay was occasioned by the pro-
visions of the legislative act which
