NUMBER THE HOUSES

Chickasha has an ordinance re
quiring that all houses be number
ed in a certain manner. Some ef-
fort has been made toward mum
bering but little attention has been
paid to the ordinance aud in what
has been done a hap-hazard method
seems to have been followed.
1t is time that the city author
ities make an active effort to have
all the houses in the city properly
numbered. The expense is so small
compared with the advantages OBJ
tanned, that there is no excuse for
neglecting II. IL Will DC OF material
assistance to the letter carriers, to
deliverymen and especially to
strangers in tie city.
II would be well at the same
time. If ii can be done without too
great expense to have the streets
named. chickasha is getting big
enough to put on all sorts of "city
airs. and these things can be had
without burdensome cost Let's
have them without delay.

PRICES NOT TOO HIGH

known ruling in Judge Miller's
court Of SIoo and costs or three
months in jail was this morning
boosted tos25oand costs. six. months
in Jail. Judge Miller says that il
that doesn't stop the practice OF
carrying concealed weapons the
price is going still higher. Hous-
ton Post.
Judge Miller has about the right
idea. The price of of ''gun totin"
can't be placed too high. There
is no excuse for the practice. 1t
is the cause ofnumerous homicides.
When the legislature OF the new
state begins to grind, it should put
the price where Judge Miller has
placed it.

A HUMANE SOCIETY

Humane Society
of course we should have it.
There are always thoughtlessand
sometimes cruel psople, who abuse
dnmb trutes or fail to give them
the attention they deserve.
Especially is it true during the
cold weather that horses and other
domestic animals are allowed to
suffer from lack of attention.
You have seen horse standing
hitched hours at a time with his
head refined up. A little thing,
you say. Maybe 50, but perhaps
it isn't such trifie to the horse.
You have seen animals suffering
from exposure to weather and
from being compelled to draw bur
dens TOO heavy for them. Perhaps
you have seen fool driver un-
mercifully beating his horse
As long az these things occur,
the purpose Of which is to prevent
such cruelties, will have a useful
field.
In this newcountry where we are
absorbed in business. fortune gain
ing, town building and various
other activities. we are apt to over
look the calls of humanity. Let
Us not forget the dumb brutes that
are 50 useful to Us and so faithful
IN doing our bidding.
Organize the humane society.

CUT OUT THE GRAND JURY

Bob Neh has started a crusrde
against the grand jury being made
a part of our Judicial system. Bob IS
right. The greatest farce in the
world IS the grand jury. 1t means
nothing bat an investigation, and
! TO be investigated by jury Of men
in the community in which one
lives, may mean shielding of crime,
or groundless accusation-just as
the pulse Of the community beats.
Who has not seen, on more than
one OCCASIONS a packing ofthe grand
jury to shield pet criminal Who
has not seen men indicted because
some individuel had a grievance
against them and was able to per-
suade grand juryl who has not
seen men selected on a grand jury
to investigate other men for CON-
mitting the same violations of law
they had committed themselves?
In Missouri the grand jury has
been dispensed with, aud the state
could not be persuaded 10 return
to the system. The prosecuting ar
torney makes the information
against the accused. He does not
have to wait on the deliberations
and uncertainties of a grand jury.
The accused is noG subjected 10 The
prejudices and sentiments OF a
community. When the information
is filed the charges are fully set
forth, and he can then make his
defense.
1t relieves the taxpayers OF
thousands of dollars of expense
and aids the courts in expediting
business. 1t gives better results
from every point of view. There
are absolutely no grounds for an
obsolete systemof antiquated meth
DDS in the new state of Oklahoma.
1t is to be hoped the grand jury
proposition will be taken up in the
convention, and Oklahoma will
take step in the march of pro-
gress by loppiug off this impedi-
ment to justice-Oklahoman.

important Court Decision.

A case of large Importance to Tingley
township and to other townships in the
that Of E. II. Parce, township clerk, VS..
7. w. Darbyshire, trustee OF Tingley
township. Judge Towner in overruling
in demurrer at the last term had gone
to the merits of the case, and Judge
Evans on Wednesday took exactly the
same view, giving Mr.. Parce for the
benefit of the township S124. The case
was tried to jury, but after the
evidence was in the court after a
motion Of the plaintiffs attorneys in
structed the jury to find for the plain
tiff. Mr.. Darbyshire, who was trustee
of the township had taken job of
overseeing the road work, and had
collected the pay. The suit was
brought to compel him to return the
money. Judge Evans pointed out that
the course Of trustees, councilmen.
directors or supervisors in hiring them
selves TO do public work is against
public policy and moreover is directly
contrary to the statute. Should he rule
that pay could not be collected by law,
but that when once it was paid it could
not be recovered, the court pointed out,
he would merely be nstructing the
officers how to evadc the law. Similar
cases will be brought, it is said, in
Liberty and Riley townships, and per
haps in others. The case decided by
Judge Evans will be carried up to
the supreme court.-Mt. Ayr News.

Concrete houses cast in a single mold

Concrete houses cast in a single mold
are coming soon, according to Thomas
A. Edison, the inventor. He says he is
going to get up some steel molds that
can be clamped together to receive the
concrete which when hardened will
form complete house with chimneys
and plumbing all in one piece. The job
of building a house by this plan would
take less than two weeks instead of
several months as is required for ordi-
nary houses and the cost would only be
about $500. Edison has made concrete
chicken houses of several apartments
| to partly demonstrate the feasibility O
| the scheme.
