Resting easy as to what might occur is out of the question, and busi ness or personal security must be protected with the utmost vigilance. Our widely heralded reputation of money growing on bushes has attracted many undesirables, who in a crowd of 12,000 to 15,000 are not easy to detect, even by the sleuth hounds of officers or detectives. With all the various officers in our midst, there yet re mains the active duty of each citizen to be on guard, to watch for suspicious characters or people without a good reason for being here. These remarks do not reflect on the defense work ers, who have conducted themselves admirably, but refer to the criminal element and the riff raff who always follow projects of this kind or assemble in lo calities where there is money and opportunity to do deeds of violence. As the winter approaches these acts will become more frequent and not only will the larger crimes become more numerous, but a series of petty depredations are likely to occur in town and country. With an awakened mind to the dangers, a sharp eye and reasonable care, officers may be given as sistance and many crimes avoided. To have unneces sary cash about is playing with the forces of evil. Just a small investment in locks may save cellars and basements. Stores and camp ground and service sta tion attendants should keep a sharp watch and offi cers should visit all camp grounds or scattered camps and inquire into the reason why each inhabitant is living here. If employed all is well, if not, find what are the visible means of support, or the why and the wherefore of their existence in a region fraught with so many unpleasant dangers to our overloaded econ omic and social conditions. Even with city, county, state and federal officers about, it would require an army to have one at every danger spot all the time. Every citizen is a guardian of his own home and family and property and in this emergency it is his duty to exercise that guardian ship.
