A Good Suggestion

Major Dabney, Of Clarksdale, in
a letter to the Vicksburg Herald,
makes a very practical suggestion
touching the prevention Of acci.
dents on railroad grade crossings.
He truthfully says that speed laws
are apparently ignored by automo-
bile drivers and suggests that the
building Of bumpers on both sides
Of each railroad would compel auto
drivers to put on low gears in or
der to climb over them. OF course
these bumpers" would have to be
Of such height and steepnesS to sew
erely jolt the fellow who disre.
garded them, and there would come
in another problem. Professional
damage suit plaintiffs would be
constantly suing the railroads for
shake.ups and mental anguish" re-
sulting from full speed contact with
these bumpers Exchange.

amounted to more than $6,ooO,Ooo,-

You have seen big printing

much faster, than you could count

INDIANS HOLDING THEIR OWN
In Many Ways Are Showing Capacity
for Taking Their Place In CHI.
zenship Of the Country. 81

In spite Of the mistakes which
mark the history Of the relations Of
the white man with the Indisn, the
remnants Of the original American
stock are proving themselves capable
Of taking an honored place as -eiti-
zens Of the nation which has sue
ceeded to their birthright. In Okla
homa the Indian is now a citizen,
and there is no activity in which
white men excel that is not, marked
by a comparable success on the part
Of the Indian. It is now proposed
ultimately to give all the Indians in
the United States full American citi-
zenship, and as the first remedial
step to place the administration Of
Indian affairs beyond the control Of
politics by establishing a federal
nonpartisan commission. In Okla
homa, thousands Of full-blooded
Cherokees, Chickasaws, Choctaws,.
Greeks and Seminoles are operating
well-kept farms and supporting ade-
quate and well-equipped schools, The
Navajo Indian blanket industry last
year reached a total Of three-quar-
ters Of a million dollars, and 10000

 There are stil a lot of broken men as also thousand of unem- ployed in the United States and a person can imagine that for the reason the munition factories have given vast number em- ployment, and were in not for that, conditions would indeed be deplorable and much worse than last year. There are still hun- dreds ot men, even in this town, that are knocking on back doors offering to split wood for bite to eat, as many following the wood wagons so as to get the job of throwing it in for dime, and as long as there are men compell- ed to live in this manner times are not good in my opinion, no mat ter what the boosters say.
 We have been having some tough weather this season out here, with several inches of snow New Years and today is the 3rd with several more inches of snow and the thermometer 9 which is a regular blizzard out here, but to me it appears to be mild and very summer like and enjoy it. Even all parts of California, even Los Angeles, have been visited with the beautiful, and Frisco had a real blizzard today, but weather like this ought to be a treat to the natives out here.
