SOME of the friends and sympa .
thizers of the outlaws who infest
this country intimate it would be
no trick at all to make a raid on
Vinita and plunder the town. II
they believed the job would be so
easy they would have undertaken
it long ago. As the matter has
evidently been under consider
alton it would be well for our
people to be on the alert at all
times. We have score or more
of men in Vinita who are handy
with a pistol or winchester and
with a small amount of drilling a
company could be organized that
would insure the safety of life and
property from the attack of any
band of outlaws that could be
mustered. No one doubts the
presence of outlaws in the country;
indeed, not many weeks have
passed at any one time in several
years that some robbery has not
been committed in this vicinity.
rhe safety of this town and coun-
.ry lies in organizing against the
outlaws.

IT is not often that a new rail
road springs into existence un-
nounced and unheralded but such
an incident occurred at Vinita
Tuesday, and it is what might be
termed a diagonal" f" or will be if
it is ever extended far enough
north. Last week suspicious
looking structure was begun on
the Beatty lot north Of Gunter &
Smiths stable. The end to the
street, where the front might be
expected, was boarded up solid 4,
but the other end, towards the al.
ley, finally showed windows and
doors. After looking the situation
over, taking a few measurements
and learning who the strangely con-
structed building belonged to, the
Frisco railroad folks went TO work
and laid a track three rails in
length on the vacant space east OF
the city Office from the main street
nearly to the south Y track. II
may not be that the building in
question was goiug to be moved to
the vacant space described, but the
railroaders did not care TO run the
risk and so occupied the ground
for railroad purposes" under
their charter. Work upon the
building came to a standslill.

The unaminity with which
Judge Parker of the Fort Smith
court, and Judge Stuart of the
Muskogee court are declaring that
there is less crime in the Indian
Territory than elsewhere, is very
suggestive. A glance into the
jails at the two places and at the
criminal dockets, to say nothing
of the expense accounts of these
courts, is sufficient proof as TO
whether there is any crime in this
country or not. If Teller's report
is correct it takes a great deal of
money to keep up these courts
where there is SO little crime.

Does the Use of the Instrument Save Time,
or Docs 1t Waste 1t?
There is q general doubt whether the
telephone has really ever saved any net
amount of mems time. Perhaps today
one may save himself half days jour
ney by the use of the telephone, and
perhaps tomorrow some one wastes half
an hour of his time by calling him
teedlessly over tho instrument, and next
day somebody wastes another half hour,
and so on until the saved half day
is put over OH to the other side of the
account There Is class of people who
are in special way the victims Of tho

answer calls for them. They ;;ro within
