j harmony with Mr. Wilson's plea. I "The president, speaking warnlngly I as the guardian of the Interests of the

Ltmoa states wnose concern for an early conclusion of the war, "arises out 'of a manifest necessity to determine how best to safeguard those interests if the war is to continue," Informs the belligerents that "an exchange of views would clear the way at least for conference! and make the permanent concord of the nations a hope for the immediate future, a concert of nations immediately practicable." WILLING TO BE MKDIATOR. Mr. Wilson disclaims any Intention of taking advantage of Germany's peace overtures to the allies and says he wishes his proposals considered independently thereof. Although hinting that the president would be glad to serve as mediator, the note, which was written by Mr. Wilson but signed by Secretary of State Lansing, concludes: "The president is not proposing peace; he la not even offering mediation. He is merely proposing that soundings be taken in order that we may learn, the neutral nations with the belligerents, how near the haven of peace may be for which all mankind longs with an " intense and Increasing longing."

Batterman & Miller, the local Implement dealers, have sold their business on South Main street to Mr. Bloede of the Main Street garage, and It is understood that Mr. Bloede will move the stock to the Peterson building on the

north side of the public square, and will soon commence the erection of the addition to the Main street garage on the site vacated by the Batterman & Miller business. The O. N. club delightfully entertained Its members and a few guests at a holiday dinner last evening at the cjub rooms on the west side of the square. Chef George Yomota of the Hub served the dinner, which consisted of all the delicacies of the season, and the repast was thoroughly enjoyed by all those present. The guests who enjoyed the hospitality of the club wer John H. Clausen. Howell V. Parry and M. A. Piatt. The club will give a dinner to Its members and lady friends in the near future. The burial of Charles W. Cooper, the five-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Cooper, living near Ross, will be held today, the burial being at the Dutton cemetery. Quite a number of the friends of the family from this placo will attend the funeral. The heavy snowfall yesterday conslderbly delayed the running 6f the Gary Sc Southern cars, until by heroic efforts the car crews succeeded in clearing the right of way, allowing the normal schedule to be resumed by night. Testerday's horse market compared favorably with other December sales, j plenty of buyers being present, but: horses few and of rather poor puality. ! Possibly twenty animals were sold and shipped to Chicago as a result of the day's exchange. Crown Point and vicinity experienced Its first heavy snowfall of the season yesterday, four or six inches falling before nighWall and nearly putting a quietus on automobile traffic

more our rights are invaded by the belligerents on both sides, so that the situation is becoming increasingly critical. I mean by that that we are drawing nearer to the verge of war and therefore are entitled to know what each belligerent seeks in order that we can regulate our conduct in the future. "It was not our material Interests that were considered when we said that the situation might become intolerable. We have prospered by the war but our rights have been invaded." Lansing emphasiiod positively that the German peace proposal and the Lloyd George speech had nothing to do with the dispatch of the Wilson note except possibly to delay sending it. On this' point he authorized quotation as follows: "No nation has been sounded on this matter and we did not know in advance what Lloyd George would say. And there was no consideration of

German overtures or the speech of Lloyd George in connection with the formation of this note. "It was not finally decided to send this note until Monday, (the note wa sent Monday night and Tuesday tnoruin). The difficulty that faced the president was that the note might be construed as a movement for peace and in aid of the German overtures. He irpeciflcially denies that that was a factor in the communication Itself." Previous to authorizing the above quoted statement. Lans'ng had talked more freely than usual and in the Fame tenor. It had been suggested to

hirn that the United States really was i

in no position to stop the war, unless the belligerents themselves desired It. T this he hinted, that If the United Ptates were to enter the war it would turn the scales definitely, and he emphasized that there was a feeling of danger that the country would J dra-" in.
