The attitude of Germany in connection with the Arabic incident should be gratifying to Americans The messages that have come to our government from the German government are such that the chance of war between the two countries seems more remote now than it has seemed at any time since the sinking of the Lustania. 1T Germany means anything she means that she has recognized the rghteousness of the posi- ton of President Wilson and that It is her intention that there shall be no more Americans killed
 Putting it another way. President Wilson has won
 great diplomatic victory in the interest Of the fee- dom of the seas His persistence has been rewarded. So has his patience His trmness was rewarded with the granting of his contentons his patient coolness with assurance Of peace.
 The American people have not wanted war with Germany They have not wanted contentious wrang- ling They have had little patience with the mouth nss of statesman who has not missed opportunity to say that we ought to have been at war long ago. They have wanted peace. But they have backed the President with whole heart and unanimity that stlrs patriotic hearts deeply. It is because they have done that that the President has been able to gain bis points and to gain them without

AN UNpREcEDENrED RECORD

A recent report of the Interstate Commerce Com mission shows that the railroads of this country car red 25O0O000O passengers in the quarter which ended December 31 last without causing single death by collision It is the first time since these reports began to be issued nearly 15 years agfo that the railroads were able to make such showing. It may have been luck that brought the railroads through the three months without fatal collision. but the railroad men say t was due the Safety First" campaign which has been carried by all the railroads few more records like it will put the theory of luck out of con- sderaton and prove that the railroads are growing safer because railroad men have taught themselves to be careful

ARE THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS USELESS

The chronic kicker wants to know what use the Federal Reserve Banks are in view Of the fact that the National banks of the United States now car rying sSOOOoOOOo of excess reserves and the State banks and trust companies about s5ooOooooo more. The answer: The Federal Reserve banks are of no more use just now than the newly canned fruit is to the housewife in these days of fresh melons, peaches pears and applies. The canned fruit is simply dead weight on the shelves representing money tied up that prof its nobody: win continue so to be until the time of bleak days and frosty nights when gardens and or chards take long vacation. Then the canned fruit will be the housewifes chief resource. And so, when the present wholly unnatural conjunction of war scare with tremendous inflow Of money from food exports comes to an end. when once more the demands of American business crowds the available credit resourc- es of the nation the Federal Reserve Bank will be worth 10 times what 1t has cost to through the present period of eongested cash. for the banker will rest secure on the solid fact that good commercial pa per- thanks to the Federal Reserve Bank, will be cash in the day of his need.

From the San Berdardino Sun we glean that the federal government is now at work on plans for the new bridge across the Colorado river at Topock, which will complete the Old Trails Roads between Arizona and California. The bridge is to be of such capacity that it will carry the heaviest trucks that so far have been designed and will be open to automobile traffic some time this year. At the present time the Santa Fe bridge is used for automobile use, toll of 2.50$ being re- quired. With the new bridge in use the Old Trails Road will be one of the best travelled from east to west.

A man came in from the New Mexico line few days ago bringing with him samples of nitrate ore, which he claims will run high in that substance. It also contains some other valuable mate- rial, but we have failed to get the name of it. Rare minerals, earths and ni- trates are valuable when found in quan- tity and the man who uses his knowl- edge of these materials is sure to make big thing out of them sooner or later. Intelligent prospecting is necessity to the successful man these days.

Feel BIue-Or Just Stupid7

Sluggish bowels and torpid liver usually go together and it does not take long for constipation to produce bad condition---a feeling of languor or lazi- ness---the "blues," headaches, pal pitation or other malady. Indeed, when in this condition the system invites more serious illness and is not able to throw off disease. Foley Cathartic Tablets are wholesome laxative and cleansing cathartic. They act without incon- venience, griping or sickening. H. H. Watkins, druggist.

Anson H. Smith and M. A. Sawyer have entered into contract with the Fifty Associates of California company for the sale of all their mining interests in Copper and Deluge Wash canyons. F. w. Remy, a well known engineer made the examination of the proper ties last week and is closing up the de- tails of the deal. The property covered by these negotiations is among the lar gest veins of molybdenite ore in the United States. Some ore has just been shipped from the mines to Henry E. Wood, of Denver, where it will be con- centrated and smelted into a ferro- molybdeum product. The old owners of the mines have had the mines under development the past eight or nine years and have made a great showing of the rare metal, as we'll as showing up big bodies of copper. The new com pany is expected to place large machin- cry on the grounds soon as the roads are in shape to take the plants in there. A road will have to be built over the hogback from Copperville, a distance of about three miles, over which to haul the heavy machinery. It is expected that this work will be undertaken with in the next thirty days.

MORE INTER-
URBAN TALK
INDUCED IN
RAILROAD WOULD TAP RICH TER
RITORY - AGAIN COMING TO
SURFACE - BUSINESS MEN IN
FAVOR OF IT.

The question Of building the Ard
more Western Interurban railway has
again come TO the surface, and this
time II has been reported upon good
authority that Kansas City hnanciers
are behind the local people and will
finance the road if everything can
be- satisfactorily arranged.
Messrs Bridgman and Allen Of this
city stated yesterday that there was
some negotiations already under way,
but were not prepared 10 make a
statement at this time. The proposed
intcrurban would extend from Ard
more by way of Oil City to ElmOre
CITY in Garyln county and would tap
one Of the richest farming and min
rra sections of the state. The Ar
buckle zinc fields would be more fully
developed If transportation facilities
were such as to warrant putting in
more mills and open the mines. and
then the agricultural tonnage that
this road would haul would be
paying proposition in itself.
The business of Ardmore would be
materially increased by this road,
and every citizen would like to see
the road built. II would pass through
several thriving little towns that
have signihed their Willingness in the
past to contribute toward the cost or
construction and do anything possible
toward securing the right-of-way.
