Oklahoma has an II

Oklahoma has an Indian war on its hands, and several men have been killed. The Indians are headed by Chiei Crazy Snake and he is trying to arouse all the Indians to take the warpath. At last accounts the militia had Crazy Snake and his band in a canyon and a battle was imminent. An Indian war sounds strange at this time, though il was not so many years ago when trouble of that kind was no stranger in Ari- ZOna.

Courtland is having g hard time to supply the camp with water for drink ing purposes, says the Bisbee Review In some cases it has been brought in from Douglas and surrounding pointe. One of the worst features of the sit uation is that the teams which are be. ing used for grading purposes are not supplied with water without difficulty. The large number of horses which are used in the district and the many people who have recently come to the camp, have caused serious drain on the water supply.

A short time ego, when the Pace bill first passed, there was quite stir in Naco, and many of the saloon men of that town and of Bisbee took options on buildings across the line, with the expectation that the county would soon go "dry" and Naco, Sonora, would become a small Monte Carlo. When the segregation bill passed the Monte Carlo hopes vert s-glimmering, and the options are expiring.
