Again we suggest that you
speak a good word for this
town. If you look around you
can find plenty of opportuni-
ties for doing so, and the more
good things you say of the
town the more the people of
the town will say of you. The
home booster may make a few
enemies among the chronic
kickers, but he will make hun
dreds of friends among the
solid people of the community.

FIND INDICATIONS OF COUNTER
FEITING.
Complete Equipment and a Number
Of Spurious Coins Found
at Ute.

Ute, Sept. 3.-Visions of exciting
times with desperate men keeping
watch to see that no officer or citizen
slipped up on them unawares; of
riches from little labor and finally
of probable sudden fight to escape
the law, are conjured by people of
Ute since the finding of a counter
feiter's outfit and a considerable
quantity of spurious coin in a resi-
dence here that is being rebuilt.
w F. Knoll, who is rebuilding his
residence, found when the building
was partly wrecked, carefully con-
cealed between the roof and the plas-
tering, box containing the counter
feiters' too.s and spurious coin. Knoll
took his find to the State Savings
bank where it has since been examin-
ed by many people with a great deal
of interest.
n the box with the tools were
found forty-one lead coins, thirty
nine of them exact reproductions of
the So gold piece with the gliding left
off All bore the date of 1898. Two
lead nickles of the date of 1881 were
in the lot. While the molds that
were found are crude the milling on
the coins is perfect.
No one now here can recall any
thing of suspicion attaching to the
place and there is an air of distinct
mystery attached to the find Cash
Ter D. z. Brainerd notified the feder-
al government of the find and he has
been instructed to send the outfit to
LEGAL authorities until secret service
man is sent to investigate.
The residence where the outfit was
found has had many renters and ten
ants in past years.

1--WE cannot take the word of the
present rulers of Germany as a guar
antee of anything that is to endure,
unless explicitly supported by such
conclusive evidence of the will and
purpose of the German people them
selves as the other peoples of the
world would be justified in accepting.
Must Wait Until Germany Shall State
Exact Terms.
without such guarantees treaties
of settlement, agreements for disarm-
ament, covenants TO set up arbitra-
ton in the place of force, territorial
adjustments, reconstitutio1s of small
nations, if made with the German
government no man, no nation could
now depend on.
I'VE must await some new evil
dence of the purposes of the great
peoples of the central powers.
God grant it may be given soon
and in way to restore the confidence
of all peoples everywhere in the faith
of nations and the possibility OF CO.
venated peace"

meant to benefit some nations and
cripple or embarrass others, upon vim
dictive action of any sort, or any kind
of revenge or deliberate injury.
The American people have suffer
ed intolerable wrongs at the hands of
the imperial German government, but
they desire no reprisal upon the Ger
man people, who have themselves
suffered all things in this war, which
they did not choose. They believe
that peace should rest upon the right
of peoples, not the rights Of govern
ments- the rights of peoples, great
or small, weak or powerful-their
equal right to freedom and security
and self-government and to partici-
patton upon fair terms in the ecouo-
mic opportunities of the world-the
German people of course included, if
they will accept equality and not seek
domination.
Battle of Royal Intrigue Against
Right of People.
The test, therefore, of every plan
of peace is this: Is it based upon the
faith of all the peoples involved, or
merely upon the word of an ambi
tious and intriguing government, On
the one hand, and group of free peo
pies, on the other? This is test
which goes to the root of the matter;
and it is the test which must be APP
piled.
The purposes of the United States
in this war are known to the whole
world-to every people to whom the
truth has been permitted to come.
They do not need to be stated again.
We seek 40 material advantage Of any
kind. We believe that the intolerable
wrongs done in this war by the furi-
Gus and brutal power of the imperial
German government ought to be re-
paired, but not at the expense of the
sovereignty of any people-rather
yindicatiol of the sovereignty, both
of those that are weak and of those
that are strong.
Indemnity For Punishment Held
Worse Than Futile.
Punitive damages, the dismember-
ment of empires, the establishment of
selfish and exclusive economic
leagues, we deem inexpedient and in
the end worse than futile, no proper
basis for a peace of any kind, least of
all for an enduring peace. That must
be based upon justice and fairness
and the common rights OF mankind.

Pat. Well, thank the Lord, there's

NEGROES MANNING SWITCH

Colored men engineers.

According to information.
about Feb. /, the white crew

In a recent action before

'Thirkield of the Methodist
Episcopal Church made the.
following reference to the
work of the Roman Catholic
Church:
The X O m an Catholic
Church in the last decade has
become singularly aggressive
in work for the Negro thru

The argument that appeals
strongly to many Negroes is
that the Roman Catholic
Church receives them with
the full rights and privileges
of the one church that wei
comes people of all races into
a Christian brotherhood.
"They may have. and otter
do. separate buildings for VOL
