President Wilson, to the stir
prise of official Washington, has
sent a note to the belligerents of
the European war. asking the
opposing nations to declare peace
terms so that they may be com
pared by the warring powers as
well as the world at large. It
was generally conceded that he
would not do this, but Wilson is
a man of many surprises. The
peace wedge can be driven in
only by negotiations, and neco
tiations can not be conducted
without some basis on which
statesmen can work.

There is a bunch of counterfeit
silver dollars going the rounds,
as well as the occasional half
dollar. The counterfeit dollars
are of the vintage of 1897, and
are so nearly like the genuine
dollar that it is hard for anyone
not an expert to detect the spur
ious from the good. C. A. Pe
teison, of Buxton, had one of
the bad ones floated on him, and'
another chap exchanged a $10:
gold piece for ten of them, in
the Buxton section.
