RUSSIA REJECTED
OFFER OF PEACE
Germany is Said to Have Made Propos-
ais During the Past Week, Acting
Through Denmark.

Petrograd, via London. Aug. e-The
report that Germany had made peace
proposals to Russia became known in
official circles here several days ago

"We learn on good authority" says
the newspaper, shat Germany through
Denmark proposed TO Russia a separate
peace, Russia to receive Galicia, while
Germany would retain the western dis
trict of Poland. representative of the
foreign Office categorically denied that
there was the remotest possibility of
any peace negotiations. In the Hobbies

as unworthy Of serious consideration" /"

Mile by mile the Austro- Germans are
pushing the Russians back from their old
fighting ground about Warsaw, making
meanwhile, determined efforts to entrap
or crush the armies of Grand Duke Mich
olas before they have chance to make
good their retreat to their new defensive
positions. Particularly successful efforts
looking to this end are reported by Wien
ma, where the claim is made that Arch
duke Joseph Ferdinand's army has forced
the Russians in disorder across the river
Vieprz near Lubartov and badly defeated
them southwest of Miechow.
Unofficial advices from the Austrian
headquarters indicate that the split in
the Russian lines caused by these opera
tions may spell danger to the forces thus
divided. A probability that the troops
retiring from the vicinity of Ivangorod
will protect the line of retreat, however,
is suggested.
Military observers in London express
the opinion that the entrapping attempts
will fail, gathering from the official re-
ports indications that the Russians may
now be expected to reach their new line
safely.
The latest reports from the Austro-
Italian front recount activity by Italian
mountain troops resulting in gains. The
Austrian official report declares that all
the Italian attempts to advance were re-
pulsed.
The Turks claim successes in recent
trench warfare on the Gallipoli penin-
sula, but London claims there really has
been no noteworthy change in the situa
ton SO far as the nnhlic is aMare

the Incorporation, The law fixes
the limit Of taxation which is very
small. This will fall on oil accord
ing to what they own--every one
will be called on to contribute
equitably, and ever the "plutocrat''
will not miss the enthusiastically
light contribution he will he called
on TO make, while the small holder
will hardly be scratched. No one
need To worry I'VE cement walks
and paved streets. We would like
to have them, but we know we
cannotsget them at this time. In
corporation mean simply that we
will all contribute u share to well
kept streets, cheap but serviceable
sidewalks, street lights and a clean
town. Isn't it worth it?
