Valuable Data Secured.

Following Tie experiments carried on by
the British government a year ago in
firing at the old war vessel Hero, the
conclusion was eforted by the navy de-
partment that much valuable data might
be secured from d like test on one of our
monitors, of Which the government has

however, mas been individual plates, not

The department. ould have no difficulty
in obtaining all the volunteers it could
use had decision been reached to put
men aboard the vessel, but such an idea
was never entertained. The tests will
show whethel any OF the bolts holding the

as usual. You tan get all the intox-
icating liquors YOU want, including
both beer and whisky, in the sa.

len women of the town are still be-
ing backmailcd and robbed under
the guisc of the law.
The time has arried In Muskogee
for something e. be done. unless
the people are llling to turn the
city over to { gamblers and law
breakers 40 further attention should
be paid to talk and promises. and
q demand should be made for action
and not words.
At the mass meeting held Monday
nipht the conconsus of opinion was
that the gambling houses should be
closed, saloon keepers and bootleg.
gers who violate tse temperance laws
should be prosecuted, and the levy
ing Of backmail on fallen women
should be stopped.
At this meeting both Mayor Martin
aud Prosecutor Crump promised TO
assist in suppressing the evils com
planned of. the mayor, among other
things, saying.
Il will fill the Jail with these law
violators."
That was four days ago and what
has developed in the meantime to
satisfy the people who are clamor-
ing for reform and decency?
To begin with, ON the first day
Of the year. twcnty-six Goldies, Bes-
Sizes Niolas. etc. were arrested ON

The police landed the women but
they failed to locate single gamb-

dozen games We're and still are in

As for the booze joints and drug

they are practically wide open and
the business IS being parcelled ont.
