DRIVERS IF FORD TRUCK HAVE MARROW
 ESCAPE FROM DEATH
Kill Engine On Crossing and String of Ore Cars Backs Into Them.

Yesterday afternoon about 4:30 two young men who were driving a Ford truck, had a very narrow escape from being killed at the crossing between the Phelps Dodge store and the post office.
 The young men started to cross the track and as they did so, a string of six steel cars loaded with ore was be- ing backed down by a switch engine, a brakeman on the rear car tried to stop the men from driving onto the track but he could not make them hear and they drove on the track and through excitement killed the engine on the machine, the string of cars was upon them and could not stop, and they hit the side of the truck. It was partly picked up by the draw bar of the ore car and was then slid along the track for a distance of about five feet before the train could be stopped by the engineer. While the truck was being slid along one of the young men jumped out but the other stayed with the machine.
 When the train was stopped an ex- animation was made of the little Ford and nothing could be found the matter with it. Several bystanders grabbed hold of it and it was lifted clear of the draw bar of the car and was then backed off the track. The driver cranked it up, climbed in and "The Little old Ford Rambled Right Along"
 The accident drew quite a crowd and the Ford gained many admirers for its durability in holding it's own withsA Curing of six cars loaded with copper ore, and a switch engine.

BRIDGE NEARING COMPLETION.

QUEBEC, Que. Sept 1S.-The huge central span of the Quebec cantiIever bridge tonight is so feet from the DO sition il is to occupy over the St Law renee River, having been raised AZ feet during the day. Those in charge of the tremendous engineering feat es- timate that the span will be trussed into place tomorrow.
 The span is well above the point from which another span broke from its moorings and killed 13 persons in its plunge into the river in 1916.
 River craft today ventured beneath the dangling span though no ocean going vessels were permitted to pass.

been a very dear friend Of this nation
in the years gone by. If the differ
ence of opinion now serves to disillu-
sionize us from the dream Of the paci-
fists, then Germany will have been an
even greater friend. We may find
; that our quarrel with Germany has
! fitted us for life and death struggle
with some other nation not so friendly
to us as the Germans have been.
AS to the chance Of actual warfare
between this nation and Germany, it
is remote. There may be war dec
laration, but if we rise to the emer-
gency and the war in Europe contin-
ues long enough to save US from the
defeat that Germany could probably
hand out to us while our military
strength compares with theirs as at
present, there Is little reason to be-
lieve that the United States and Ger
many would really come to grips.
The present crisis with Germany
may be the very thing needed to force
the United States to fit itself for play
ing the part in world affairs that its
size and wealth demands.
Good should come out Of this ill
wind-good in the shape of universal
training for our citizens and national
mobilization of our resources.
The Courier, while ardently praying
, for preparedness, Just as ardently
prays that there will be no war with
Germany.

THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.

It is most fitting that on the ami
versary Of the birthday of Abraham
Lincoln. next Monday. the subject OF
monument to the old soldiers should
be discussed in the schools. Lincoln
and the old soldiers will always be as
ISOLATED in our thoughts.
The movement for soldiers man.
ument has another and very important
significance. however. 1t is step to-
ward the development in the people
of this city of appreciation of the
beautiful, and love Of art. In these
faculties Americans, and especially
those in the middle west, are lacking.
We are too practical, too matter Of
fact, too worldly. It is advisable that
we give more attention to culture and
to the refining influences Of art. We
must learn to appreciate fine picture
or a fine piece of sculpture, just as
we are now able to appreciate fine
field Of corn or an excellent horse.
There is so much that is beautiful
that We are wasting opportunity for
happiness when we fail to educate our
selves to appreciate 1t.
The proposed soldiers monument is
to be work of art. thing Of beauty,
as well as an indicator of respect and
reverence.

CABINET DECIDES
ON DEFENSE PLAN

Washington. D. O., Feb. 10.-The
course to be taken by the United
States If Germany compels the use Of
force to safeguard American lives and
rights has been determined. It was
learned authoritatively after yester-
days cabinet meeting that in the event
President Wilson goes before congress
again, 1t Will not be to ask for decla-
ration of war, but to follow literally
the words of the address in which he
announced the break OF diplomatic
relations and authority to use means
deemed necessary to protect American
seamen and people.
The president. 1t was stated. Is as
anxious as ever to avoid war with Ger
many, but also Is as determined as
ever that American citizens and ships
shall be free to travel the high seas
unmolested. His next step. IL taken,
will be to enforce that right and even
then the issue Of war or peace will be
with Germany. Any hostile action will
have to come in the form Of an inter
ference with an American right.
Details of the governments plans
are not discussed. 1t is known, how
ever, that conveying and arming Of
merchant ships are being considered.

UNIVERSAL SERVICE.

Universal military service appears
more desirable every day. Each new
enhancing event in world history
and there is one nearly every day now
shows palmer than ever that this ma
ton owes 1t to itself and to the rest
Of the civilized world to be able to
protect itself There has been no
practical plan offered by which this
nation and its epoch marking institu,
lions can be made safe for posterity
other than through military power. I'm
less we awaken from the dream that
safety lies in weakness, we risk per.
ishing.
There is no real reason for fearing
universal service. 1t is good for the
nation because 1t promotes democracy
and social equality. 1t is good for the
individual because it teaches him re,
spect for authority, promotes his
physical and moral courage, makes
him self-reliant, develops self-control
broadens his vision of government and
Increases his self respect.
The main opposition to universal
military service seems based on the
fear it may lead to restraint OF per.
oonal rights and to tyranny. Certain
~ there Is less reason to believe that
an obnoxious government could exist
in land full of trained freemen, than
In one of helpless and unframed civil.
fans.
Trying to avert the possibility OF
tyranny by refusing to train our man
hood in the science Of militarism, is
like cutting off ones legs to keep from
walking into danger.
The sooner we awaken to the abso-
lutte need for universal military SER
vice, the sooner this nation will have
reason to be certain of its future life
and prosperity.

WHEN GOD HELPS.

God helped the children of Israel so
openly and so often that they finally
reached point where they refused to
help themselves Ten of their number
left their abiding place at the border
of the promised land and spent forty
days spying out the land. When they
returned and reported that the cities
were large and had high walls and
powerful fighting men, the Israelites
first murmured and then loudly pro-
tested against fighting for the prom
ised land. They refused to help them.
selves: they wanted the Lord to deliv-
er oversthe land to them without any
effort on their part.
II you are a student OF the bible,
you know what followed. The Lord
was very angry with them and as pun
ishment, willed that they should wan.
der for forty years in the wilderness
until a new generation had replaced
the one which rebelled at the prospect
of having to fight its way into posses
sion of the promised land.
Two of the ten spies disagreed with
the majority and implored the Israel
ties to make an effort to win the prom
Used land even II the odds did seem
against them. These two, Joshua and
Caleb. were the only Israelites OF age
al that time that the Lord permitted
to enter the promised land.
Surely the Lord frowns upon the
pacif1st who counsels, "The Lord will
do it, if it is right that 1t should be
done" He had better say. '"The Lord
will help us IL we make the effort to
do what Is right to do"

THE GOOD OF AN ILL WIND.

The adage says it's an ill wind that
blows nobody good.
An III wind is blowing over this
country now; we are facing the proba-
bility of getting into war with Ger.
many. the most powerful martial ma
tion the world has ever seen. Any
minute may bring the news that the
overt act by German submarine. con-
fidently expected and nationally dread
ed. has been committed. Then will
follow President Wilson's demand up
on congress for authority to prevent
further disregard of American rights
and what will come thereafter is cas-
lilly magined.
But, it's an i'll wind that blows no.
body good
This much is certain-and it be-
comes more apparent to more people
every day-that this nation Is inviting
conquest and exploitation by its refus-
al to prepare in military way to pro-
tect itself Continued adherence to
the policy that in weakness there Is
safety. Is almost certain to bring catas-
trophe, if not humiliation. to the re
public of the United States. This ne
ton simply has to awaken to it's weak
ness, to it's danger, if 1t is to avoid
the fate melted out to those who are
too proud too lazy, or too careless to
help themselves.
II there ever was time when it was
comparatively safe to go to war: il
there ever was nation that 1t was
safe to declare war upon, that time is
at hand and that nation is Germany.
Germany is at bay with most of the
civilized world fighting her. Germany
is holding her own and maybe little
better than holding her own, but she
has no earthly way to effectively fight
the United States. She can't send her
fleets nor her armies over here now.
II is safe to bait her, just as safe as
IL Is for her to bait us-thoush for diff
ferent reasons.
II the immediate prospect Of war Is
the only way to awaken this nation to
a realization of its duties to itself and
TO it's laxity in preparing to undertake
those duties. then the crisis with Ger
many is certainly an i'll wind that Is
blowing good We could spend the
next two years or so getting the train
ed men and the munitions to defend
ourselves and if we do it as we ought
to do it. there is no nation that will
risk an encounter with us when the
present European struggle is over.
If we must have war to wake us
up. let's have 1t now when we won't
have to actually fight. Germany has
