Held At Needles

Gus Olson, one Of the men who, it is
charged, held up Conductor E. J. Kelly
and crew on a freight train in the
west end of Kingman yard about a
week ago, has been arrested and is
being held in the Jail at Needles. He
will be brought here for trial. Olson
objected to being put off the train,
and, it is said, pulled a gun to shoot
one of the brakemen. Conductor
Kelly stepped between them and fin
ally talked Olson out of it, although
he made free use of the six-shooter
by punching Kelly in the stomach with
it to make him understand that he
was "hard boiled" as he expressed
it.

Rank FOOlishness

You occasionally see it stated that
colds do not result from cold weather.
That is rank foolishness. We're it true
colds would be as prevalent in mid
summer as in midwinter. The mic
robe that causes colds fourishes in
damp, cold weather. To get rid of a
cold take Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. 1t is eectual and is highly rec
commended by people who have used it
for many years as occasion required,
and know its real value. Obtainable
everywhere. Adv.

From Tuesdays Daily MinerI


Owing to the fact that a great
number of entertainments were given
around the 18th of this month, it was
not expected that the following week
would be so abundantly supplied.
It seems as if the past week has
been doing its utmost to surpass its
predecessor, an act which it has accom-
plished to very fair degree, as hard
ly day or evening passed without
a party or entertainment of some kind.
A few, which the social column was
able to obtain a description of, are
printed in this issue.
1t seems, if it is permissible for the
writer to state, that the residents of
Kingman have the right spirit, such
as the following maxim portrays:
Give while you live, the epicure would
say,
And seize the pleasures of the present
day."
1t is the hope of the social editor
that weeks such as the past week
will continue to play the leading part
in Kingman, and that each week will
excel its predecessor with social ga
therings, parties and entertainments
of all kinds in general.

WILSON TO SPEAK
ALONG BROAD LINES
Continued From Page One)

sideration by the administration is
whether Germany has not unmistak-
ably shown, through a long succession
of violations of international law, that
the United States must definitely unite
with the liberal democracies of the
world against the four most complete
autocracies, both for its present and
future safety. All hope has been lost,
as shown in the note to Germany, as
to the treaty of 1928, in the good faith
of the present German rulers. The
Belgian invasion and deportations, the
ruthless submarine warfare, the at
tempts to embroil neutral countries in
plots, and the general system of the
war have convinced many officials that
the German military system, as at
present directed, is permanent dan
ger to the worlds peace.
German plots in this country, run
ming back almost to the beginning of
the war and finally eliminating in the
Zimmerman note to ally Mexico and
Japan in a war against this country,
are regarded as evidence of the evil
of the German system. The admin
istration has much material not yet
made public, and it is understood,
moreover, that the complete text of
the Zimmerman note has not been
published. Further disclosures of in
trigues may be expected at any time.
Germany, through the GOODNESS with
which she treated the presidents pro-
posal to name peace terms, is felt to
be the greatest Source of danger to
world peace. Some officials here, who
felt her original offer was insincere
and merely a play for domestic con-
sumption, believe her refusal to state
terms is proof of that contention. Full
cooperation with the allies, therefore,
is generally favored as a necessity to
future safety. German victory now,
it is said, may lead to an attack on
this country later, and would at least
necessitate extensive armament. 1t
would be tantamount to a German
victory basis that while after peace
the German union would become
stronger, the Entente might easily
fall apart and Germany be left rela-
lively world supreme.
Military authorities here believe
that the most Germany expects now is
a draw. The chancellor's speech in
regard to this country's entrance into
the war causes much interest. Some
officials have predicted for more than
a year that Germany would attempt to
force this nation into the conflict at
the last moment, in order that her au-
tocracy might save itself before the
people by surrendering to the whole
world, and because this country would
probably be a generous enemy.
