SERIOUS ACCIDENT
NARROWLY AVERTED

The presence of mind and prompt
action of Claude Martin, of this
city, averted what might have been
a bad accident Tuesday morning
at the East Locust street railroad
crossing. A lady in buggy at
tempted tc drive her horse across
the tracks just as the IL o'clock
westbound train whistled for the
crossing, when the horse slipped
and fell in the path of the train.
Martin, who was coming into town
in a wagon, saw the horse fall and
heard the train coming. He rushed
to the crossing and by main force
dragged the fallen horse off the
tracks just as the train whizzed by.
The lady never left her seat in the
buggy. Martin then got the horse
up, Strengthened the harness and
the woman proceeded on her way.
Her escape from a terrible accident
was due entirely TO Martins pres
ence of mind.

eve shall regard the war as won
only when the German people say
to us, through properly accredited
representatives, that they are ready
to agree to a settlement based upon
justice and the reparation of the
of the wrongs their rul-
ers have done.
"When this intolerable Thing,
this German power, rs, indeed, de-
feated and the time come that we
can discuss peace-when the Ger
man pepole have spokesman whose
words we can believe and when
those spokesman are ready in the
name of their people to accept the
common judgment of the nations
as to what shall henceforth be the
basis of law and of covenant for
the life of the world-we shall be
willing and glad to pay the full price
for peace and pay it ungrudging!y.
We know what that price will be.
It will be full, impartial Justice

COAL SHORTAGE COMES
 ,f. LAND IN WAR THROES

ROME, March 20.-With coal sell ing at $60 ton and the government gradually taking over all existing supplies and prohibiting its use by Hotels and boarding houses, and with gas, electricity dear or the supply reduced, Italian households and busi- ness offices have had to revert to the ancient method of burning finely powdered wood charcoal in two gallon earthern jar. The jar is filled full of charcoal dust, placed in the open air or near an open window and some live cOals of wood or charcoal put in the center of the dust. Slow combustion is started and gradually he entire surface of the dust burns to ashes while the smouldering fire reaches downward. When, after 12 hours, no more smoke, or little gas is given off, the heated jar is placed ill the cold room and let stay there for "A hours alter which fresh layer Of dust is placed in the jar and the

TIE decision of tie Supreme Court in the. railroad bill places another tax of s60,00O.0G0 upon the people of the United States. for the people are the ones who will pay it. While it amounts to only about sixty cents per capita the principle is so utterly at variance with all preconceived mo- tiOns of Jaw and equity as to be al most revolutionary in character. If the courts. at the request of 3n ad- ministration, can set the hours and wages on railroads it has the right to set the hours and wages on steam ship lines. and if on steamship lines, under the interstate commerce laws, which are becoming more and more elastic as time goes by, it is but step to street car lines. light plants, and all public utilities; and then when there are no more worlds to conquer in the line of public enterprises, the law can easily be construed by friendly court to embrace all private enterprises Too much power is a rad thing,-for a nation, people, a president, a court or an individual, and ultimately leads to internal strife and revolutions.

PLAN TO CCRTAIL RETAIL
 CREDIT SYSTEM OPPOSED

LONDON, March 20.-The govern ments suggestion that the retail ere dit system be suspended on grounds of national economy has created a stir in the retail trade. Probably two-thirds of the retail shopping is done on credit in this country and the governments idea if carried out will while effecting economy produce inconvenience both to the stOrekeep- CTS and the public. The practice has been to charge more to customers buying on credit. The wealthier classes have been indifferent to this extra cost because they wanted the goods as a matter of convenience. It is the poorer and middle classes who gre hit hardest by the proposed change, because the credit allowed by the shopkeepers has relieved them of a small financial difficulty which they may be under for time.
