SYSTEMATIC EFFORT.
A Provident Association Bad
Iy Needed.

There was never SO much desti-
tuition in our city as this winter
and so much demand for old cloth.
ing and food and other necessaries
of life. Further, there was never
people so willing as those ofVini-
ia to alleviate to thegreatest extent
possible all suffering in their
midst. A number of ladies and
gentlemen have in an individual
capacity done great deal in this
direction this winter, but by or
ganizing provident society far
more could be accomplished and
With less burden upon a few. A
great many cases of suffering are
overlooked and in others the do
nations are not judiciously bestow-
ed-at times are not just what are
needed. But greater than these
reasons for organizing is that Of
systematic gathering. Every fami-
ly in ordinary circumstances has
great many articles of clothing,
furniture and household use which
they would freely and cheerfully
donate to such cause. Food, fuel,
medicines, house room or money
to pay for the same can also be
secured when the giyer has the
assurance Of some reliable resident
or society that the maximum of
comfort will be bestowed upon
some needy sufferer. A great deal
of aid could be afforded by the city
and while it is outside the mar
shals regular line, he would prob
ably not object to being assigned
to the duty of assisting such an
organization as is suggested, by
protecting it from imposition and
likewise in reporting cases OF des-
titution, and in the distribution Of
supplies.

II the treaty is defeated it will
be done surreptitiously by those
who are thought to be fighting for
its ratification. If the friends of
the treaty want help they should
look TO those who would not be
damaged by its passage. Outside
of the little Topeka congressman
no one is openly fighting the meas
ure, but on the side there are sew
eral interests that would get badly
hurt should it be ratified. 1t is of
the utmost Importance to Vinita,
and also to the Cherokee nation at
large, that it speedily become the
law ofthe land. The town wants
deeds issued to real estate, and
the citizens of the nation want
titles to their homes.

Indemnity for Indians.

Indian Agent Wisdom will begin
the payment to certain Seminole
Indians at Wewoka, l. T., today
of the amount awarded them
by the secretary of the interior for
damages done to their persons
and property by the mob from
Oklahoma which invaded the
Seminole nation in January, 1898,
and burned Palmer Sampson and
Lincoln McGeisy, two Seminole
Indians, at the stake. The value
placed on the lives of the Indian
boys is $1,000 each, which
amount will be paid to the mother
Of Sampson and the father of Nc
Geisy. The other amounts to be
paid by Agent Wisdom range from
S25 to S533, amounting to s13, 900.
Several of the persons who are
charged with being members of
the mob are now in Jail at Musko-
gee awaiting trial. This payment
is made in accordance with the
provisions of the treaties between
the United States and the Semi
mole nation, in which the United
States agree to protect the Semi.
noles against any and all invasions.

A Spring Poem.


Let us gather up the billiards
As they howl asound our path;
Let us keep this zero weather
Packed In sawdust, straw and char,
And we shall find sweet comfort
When August zephyrs blow
And the sons of Adam sigh again
For the days Of ice and snow.
CHORUS.
Then salt down billiards frozen;
Then pack ice by the dozen,
We will need them shore as pizen"
For our comfort by and by.
For Sale.

ness, best in the world for the money.
