ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORTS ENTENTE TERMS OF PEACE THURSDAY, JAN. 4. 1917 LENOIR'S OPPORTUNITY Prospects for railroad development in the Lenoir section are so alluring that it is not to be doubted that bus iness men of that community are re ally interested. Extension of the Watauga and Yadkin River and the Norfolk and Western, which are draw ing near, not only would mean many thousands of dollars in trade for Le noir merchants, but would give that community an opportunity to develop by reason of lower freight rates 'Hickory and all neighboring terri tory would benefit indirectly by rail road developments around Lenoir. The Watauga and Yadkin River, which operates from North Wilkes boro to Grandin, has a spur track ex tending to Darby, and the Norfolk and Western, which operates to Todd, Wlautauga county, is only ten miles from the Watauga and Yadkin River point iFrom Lenoir to Grandin is about 15 miles, the grade is easy, and the cost is not great, comparatively speaking. If Lenoir could strike out and reach Grandin, there is every prob ability that the Watauga and Yad kin would made connection with the Norfolk and Western, thus placing Lenoir in a favorable railroad nosi- tion. Such a development would aid the Carolina and North-W.estern now the only road to Lenoir and result in placing the resources of the mountains close to the re3t of North Carolina and the east. Apples insn potatoes and cabbages would be in easy reach of the entire state and the greatest product of the moun tains, timber, would be more accessible to North Carolina manufacturing plants. . ... unless something is done the magnificent territory northwest of Le ! Mi i . uuir win do lorced to contribute to the wealth of neiehborinc states Business and sentiment, both of which North Carolinians possess, urge ac tion by Lenoir citizens, and by Hick ory business men as well. MAKING AMENDS The New and Observer has cut us off its exchange list and we haven't lound the price of a subscription yet so we didn't see Editor nrit'a signed statement in which he is said to have alleged that he ble for all the editorials that appear in secretary Daniel's paper and al most pledges that he wrote the edi torial in regard to peace. Well it fooled us. We saw that editorial L pnnted before the News and .Observer quit coming and we would have gone to our grave in the belief that the hand that penned it rules the waves on this l,pm!0r,u. uj our friend Britton not claimed it. We um not think anything strange of 5VPrCedure'. UnJess the secretary w M,a navy am not want the public to know where he stood, but we are .penectiy willing to admit, for the ?Ke 01 friendship, that we can't dis tinguish between the Rambler and anyje or Hugo and Schiller. Houston Post. llf the London Spectator publishes accurately the terms upon which the entente allies will agree to make peace, the present effort is doomed to failure. The evacuation of all occupied en tente territory, the restoration of Alsace and Lorraine to France, the retrocession of the Danish portion of Schleswig-IIolsteifci, the cession of the Polish territory held by Ger many and Austria-Hungary, the yielding of Constantinople and the Straits of Russia, the retention of the German colonies by the entente al lies, a money indemnity to France, Bel gium and Servia, the surrender of the Gorman flpet. the neutralization of the Kiel canal under a non-German commission and other guarantees, which are stated as the entente terms, nre just what would be enforced if the entente armies were to reconquer nil the territory they have lost and overrun the nations of the central al lies. These terms cannot be insisted up on when the war has not logically pointed to such a termination, and unless there is a more conciliatory spirit among the entente allies, the huge task of enforcing the entente terms by the complete subjugation of the central allies will have to be un dertaken. When it is considered that the en tente allies have actually lost a large and populous territory in the first 29 months of the war, it is a mat ter of comecture how lorn? it will re. quire them to push the central allies back to their own boundaries. Even when that is done the work of breaking Germany's permanent de fenses will remain to be executed. Wlhat that would cost in the wav nf men and money, if it be possible at all, and the time that would be re quired, is too much for imagination. Peace is possible at present nnlv upon the basis of mutual concession. Unless the entente allies are willing to end the war upon that basis with guaranties for the future, the trie must proceed. The terms? stat ed by the London Spectator unnn an antagonist completely crushed, whereas the central allies are decid edly undefeated, with their Wt.To ines upon the territory of pvprv an tagonist except England and Japan. It is the hone that a wav mav ho found to save Europe from ultimate destruction that causes all neutral nations to wish that a fensihlA haai of peace negotiations may be discov ered. JOf COUrse. the German forma are not yet known to the public. If they are pitched upon the samp im possible plane that the SDeetatnr gives us to understand the entente allies are occunvinB-. then tho is all gloom and despair.

Gaither Bonniwell ARCHITECT ELLIOTT BUILDING HICKORY N. C. Ohio State Journal. Referring to the oft-repeated claim that there can be no such thing as universal peace, because war is a phase of human nature that men always have and always will fight, Dr. Frank Crane thus speaks: ''War. human nature?

Idea that men nf conca will ;,.,.,.. . . w v. iriii JUOHAJf war because it is human nature would fit them for the lunatic asy lum. And then the doctor goes on tO SaV. "Give Vllinisin ntni-a chance; let the people manage their governments, and war will speedily cease forever." And that's true, too. It is deSDl'sahle the urair c-ma ple will blame human nature for war. By that arcument evorv Krima be justified. R. W. Wolfe's VETERINARY HOSPITAL 915 Ninth Avenue. (President Wilson might have laid hia plans long before the German peace proposal was made, but his note came so soon after the Teutonic proposal that almost any impression could have been made.
