The defendants in the celebrated
Muskogee town lot case have been
given their liberty and are free from
further molestation but have not been
proven innocent. That, we believe, is
a fair, accurate statement of the Mar
shall decision.
The court's decision forbade the gov
ernment from presenting evidence re
lating to overt acts committed after
the government patents to the lots in
question had been Issued, and further
held that the statute of limitations be
gan to run against the offense from
that date. As the statute of limita
tions in such cases is only three years,
and as the preponderant majority of
the evidence against the accused was
based on overt acts prior to the issue
of patents, the government found it
self unable to proceed.
Thus on a technicality the defend
ants escape trial. Those statements
that defendants were exonerated from
result; not that any one of the de
fendants might be convicted, but that
the people of the state might be en
abled to Judge from the presented evi
dence whether or not there was just
grounds for the prosecution.
As the case now culminates nothing
is proven. The champions and friends
of the defendants will continue to in
sist that the prosecution was personal
persecution, while the enemies of the
defendants wiU insist with equal ve
hemence that guilty men .with wealth
and influence circumvented the law.
While the greater number of impartial
citizens must ever remain uncertain,
their uncertainty falling, inevitably,
as suspicion against, every man in
dicted. However the governor , and his
friends will do well to accept the re
sult on Its merits without claiming
vindication, for even the most unso
phisticated understand that escaping
the penalty of a crime because the1
statute of limitation forbids 'prosecu
tion is not vindication. Tulsa World.

"The only practical method for the
republicans, divided as they are In
Oklahoma and throughout the rest of
the nation, is to enlarge on apparent
flaws in democratic rule In order to
keep the minds of insurgents from the
issues between the factions." said Sen
ator R. M. Roddie of Ada. "When our
platform approved of the acts of Has
kell administration It approved of the
benefit-lent provisions of our constitu
tion and of practically every doctrine
of Roosevelt's new nationalism; yet
the standpat element of the party op
poses Haskellism and therefore Roose
veltism. Every good principle the
Harris machine is fighting in Okla
homa will be involved, without a doubt
in the campaign of 1912, and Harris
and McNeal, If they want to be regular
then, will have to reverse their belig-
gerent policy of today. The prospect
of a dilemma of that kind is one of
the most encouraging . things of this
camnaisn to a democrat. Because of
the manifold difficulties that Governor
Haskell has encountered and because
of the many attacks on his character,
the Harris machine 'has coined the
word "Haskellism" to blind the eyes
of the fair-minded rang and file of the
republican party to the greater issues
of the contest"

Guthrie, Okla., Oct. 1. That the
year 1909 on the whole was not a pros
perous one for foreign fire Insurance
companies, so far as their Oklahoma
business is concerned, is shown by the
report of Insurance Commissioner
Milas Lasater covering the business of
fire companies In the state during that
period. The average rate of loss, to
premium receipts of such companies
was 62.2 per cent. Add to that the 2
per cent tax on premium receipts, the
entrance and other fees, and an aver
age expense account of 35 per cent of
premium receipts, and it is shown con
clusively that the companies had lit
tle left for profit on their Oklahoma
business. The domestic stock com
panies fared somewhat better, the
three reporting showing a loss ratio of
55 per cent.
The total gross risks ttritten in Ok
lahoma -tiy foreign and domestic fire
and hail companies was $255,361,877.24
in 1909, as against $265,154,345 in 1908,
or a decrease of $9,792,477 in gross
risks written. The ne premiums re
ceived from all the companies show
an increase from $2,889,059.78 in 1908
to $3,468,075.49 in 1909, while the net
losses paid also show an Increase from
$1,736,146.61 in 1908 to $1,9S3.727.S4'.
