I J. F. AI.KXANDKIl, U. S. Marshal. J. P. IIITTSOS", Chief of Pollco. DEBS ETJOUNU V. DKJJS, one of 11m best known of new world socialists, still opposes civilization's grunt war against kaiserisni and still bases liis opposition, according to repoi'ts of liis speech to Ohio socialists, upon tho J.icl tliat there are autocrats and profiteers in this country and because there is in the hearts of some Americans, Lritisn anil French a "desire for plunder." There have been days when this newspaper has hear tily commended reforms advocated by this sani- Debs. We then were glad to help him titm the spotlight of publicity upon holes infested by profiteering privilege in this eoun try. This country hail no such titanic struggle of life and death a.s this war upon its bauds then. "We had plenty of time to swat grafters and discuss progressive measures. Debs and his kind are still at it. They are still keeping- their eyes so closely upon the profiteer, the reactionary and the captain of privilege at home that they cannot see the horrible fire sweeping over the land of the world's most rapacious of profiteers, the most stand-pat of reac tionaries and the most greedy captain of privilege, Ger many's autocracy. VVhcn Delis says that the "purpose of the allies is the same as the purpose of the central powers plunder,-" Debs. Only a liar or a fool could believe that Serbis resisted Austria for plunder; that 'Belgium resisted the Dun invaders for plunder; that Britain sacrificed the flower of her citiy.enry when Belgium was ravaged to plunder; the France has bled for nearly four years for plunder; that the United States, forced into the war by Herman murder and piracy upon the high seas, by German crimes and plots on our own soil, by German slaying oi American ciiinens, went into the war for plunder. Deb? isn't a fool. Therefore he must be a liar. Debs right now is doing more to aid the Hun kaisei than all the pro-Germans in America. lie is of greater assistance to the bodies in France than are the Turk', Bulgarians and the Austrians. His Canton speech even now being spread broadcast through all Germany and all Ger man trenches will kill more American soldiers than ail the German submarines that hunt for American transport ships. For Debs' words will be used in Germany to per suade the Germans on to cruelty, because they will believe that America is not in this war to win that Debs voices the sentiments of a large portion of our population. Do voices the sentiment ot already are in prison and all probably will be. i oh, there are prolitccrs men who would plunder.

Trnnsoceaiiie imports' from Soutii Africa and New Cnldoniii lire practi cally cut off by luck of shipping but are rcplucil, in part at least, by im ports from Canada,' Newfoundland, Culm, Iiray.il und Guatemala. A large part of the supply must come from the United Stules, and the more the better lo save shipping". Output in America According to I ho latest report by J. S. Diller, of the United States geo logical survey, department of the in terior, the output of chroinite in the United States in' 1!)17 was 43, 72.) loiijr tons, of which by far the greater part enme from California. Oregon produced 7, 5110 long tons, and siuullcr quantities came l'rom Alaska, Wash ington, Jlarylitnd und North Carolina. This year the output must bo grcuiy increased, and the promise of a con siderable increase is good. The huge consumers are giving pood prices, $1.25 a unit for 38 per cent ore that is, $47.00 a ton 1'. o. b. cars on the Pacific const, on contracts c&tendin through tlie year, so that it pays to mine chrome ore. Higher grudc ore is worth more and lower grades less than the grade noted. For 30 (.cr cent ore 05 cents a unit is offered -that is, $19.00 a ton. Low grades should he concentrated if possible, thus greatly increasing their vaiue by widening (he field and increasing the economy of application. . About a dozen concent Tutors uro already either in operation, in course of con struction, or in contemplation in Cali fornia and Oregon. A most Impel ill sign of the limes is that sonic of the large deep gold mining companies are using parts of their stamp mills, es pecially in Nevada county, for crush ng und concenlraling low grade lirouic ore. The ore sold on tlie Pacific coast in l'.ll ranged ill grade lrotn 3(! to per cent of chrome oxide and ihe average was about. 42 per cent for (iie total output, 43,7-J.- long tons, suid luring the year at an average juice of a ton. The minimum price for most of the same ore today would be $47.50 ti ton. Output Inn-casing Notwithstanding the bnd winter weather the domestic production of clironiite during January, Tehi-itaiy and arch, 1018, was 11,448 loua tons, f which 3,07!) long tons were pro duced and shipped and 5,85!) loiig Ions were produced but not shipped. The tidal production in April is not yet completely reported, but it ap pears to be about (i,'J45 long tons, making n tidal output for the fu.-t four months of 1DIS or 17,003 Ions tons, equivalent to 14,802 long to.is of 50 per cent ore. That is less th,.a one-third of the total domestic pro duction expected ill 1018. The most uelivc season for mining chiotne ore is list opening and Ihe outlook is ei eouragiiu.'.

Small danger of a tobacco shortage, despite tromondous amounts being shipped abroad to tho army 1b shown in a re port on the industry by the bureau ot consus disclosing that stocks on hand, at iho beginning of this year amount ed to 1,1 76,1!34, 057 pounds, an In crease of 12.0 percent over last year. Totul production for 1917 was 1,190,451,000 pounds, of which 76 percent was chowing, smoking, snuft and export types, 19, percent cigar types and 5 percent Imported types. The higher yields are obtained as a rule in tho localities producing the high-priced types used in the manu facture of cigars. During the paHt threo-tiuarters ot a century the growth in tobacco pro duction in the U. S. has not quite kept' pace with that In population. Vir ginia was the greatest tobacco grow ing slate prior to the civil war, but since that period Kontucky had led in this respect. Altho with the last cen sus tho production of tobacco was reported for 1,508 counties in 45 Sates, nearly one-fourth of the crop (23.5 percent) was grown In fourteen counties. Tho total world's average produc tion of tobaicco during the period Im mediately preceding the war Is estim ated at 4,197,0011,000 pounds annual ly. Of this, continental U. S. produc ed approximately 1,000,000,090 pounds, British India 1,000,000,000 pounds; China 500,000,000 pounds, European Russia 230,000,000 pounds Dutch Eas Indies 200,000,000 pounds; Austria-Hungary 170,000, 000 pounds; Japan 120,000,000 pounds; Philippines 100,000,000 pounds and Brazil 100,00.0,000 pounds. Tho total for these countries nuiotmts to 3,420,000,000 pounds, or SI percent of tho total for tho world. According -to data compiled by the department of agriculture ho aver age farm price of toliacco thruout the U.
