PEOPLE WONDERING
ABOUT RAILROAD

Dubuque, July 5.-The farmers and
townspeople living along the right Of
way of the Chicago, Anamosa and
Northern railroad, better known as the
Can" are apprehensive as to what
will become of their road.
United States Judge Henry T. Reed
has decreed that the road shall be
sold, If possible, and has set the day
Of the sale as July II. The judge ap-
pointed Herman Ternes. Dubuque, as
special master of the sale. The road
will be sold at .Coggon, and no less
than 100000 may be accepted for It.,
according to Judge Reeds ruling.
What worries the people living
alongside the road is whether or not
the road will be sold. If it is not sold
1t will necessarily have to be "junked'
as there are many creditors, most Of
them being quite insistent that they
get their money.
1t is rumored, that the Classes Of
Waterloo will purchase the road, cleo
trify it and add 1t to their present
electric interurban system. The peo'
pie living at points touched by the
road care little who buys it, just so
long as the purchaser will operate it.

ANO bR0kEN
MOTORMAN ON ALBA AND GEN.
TERvILLE iNTERURBAN is
FRIGHTFULLY INJURED. T.

Abba July 5.-Bedford Woods, ex-
ira motorman on the Abba and Gen.
terville interurban, had his leg broken
and crushed until it is feared 1t will
have to be amputated,. yesterday,
when two interurban cars collided a
short distance this side Of Selection.
The car from Centervi..e bringing
the band from that city, had stopped
to discharge some passengers and the
extra following closely behind ran in
to it on account of the brakes refus-
ing to work. The two cars were
wedged together so closely that it was
fully ten minutes before Woods could
be taken from the wreck. The other
passengers were badly shaken up and
little Ford boy from Mystic had his
collar bone broken.
Woods was rushed to the Abba hos
pital, and his condition is as well as
could be expected His sister, Oshia
Riggs, is with him here.

with attacking the military program Of
the United States Of America.
An understanding of the two closely
related elements Of national pride on
the one hand and religious loyalty to
the emperor on the other is vitality i'm
portant to an understanding Of Japan
and the Japanese. These elements
explain largely the aggressive milf
tarism Of Japan in the past, and her
Wanting and ruthless ambition today.
They explain the perfect solidarity Of
the nation in the face Of foreign op-
ponent. They hint at the length to
which Japan will 80 in her effort to
put herself in the front rank CONNER
cially and industrially in spite of ma
tural handicaps They give a stgni-
flcant indication Of Japan's real atti-
tude toward such matters az exclusion
and discrimination.
These national characteristics mean
more than that. They mean also q
nation militant, the sitting Of pacihst,
protest, the moral justification Of war
as a means Of serving the state-they
mean the placing Of the nation as an
instrument in the hands of a few
men. That instrument has been turn.
ed against China, against Russia,
against Germany. It behooves the
United States Of America to consider
whittier it may be turned next.
