Oklahoma Prospects.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-The story now
being extensively published in Western
papers that Mr.. Springer had abandoned
the hope of securing the passage of the
Oklahoma bill at the present session is en-
tirely without foundation. On the con-
trary, the prospects for the early passage
of that measure seem never so favora Bile
as now. The bill is the first business in
order on next suspension day-January 7
and also in Committee of the Whole and
notices were mailed yesterday to all the
members, requesting their presence imme-
diately after the recess in order to insure
a full House and favorable action on the
bill.
1t is the universal opinion here that the
bill has gained in strength, because of the
filibustering tactics Of the small minority,
which have thus far prevented final vote,
and it is estimated that under the worst
circumstances not more than 40 votes
can be mustered in the House against the
BILL with the probability that the oppo-
sition vote will be much less than that
number.
In regard to the prospects of the bill Mr..
Springer said yesterday: 81 can not con-
ceive how this report originated that I
expressed an opinion that the Oklahoma
bill was not likely to pass. No such opin-
ion was ever entertained by me- was
never more confident than now that the
bill will pass and by a majority that
will astonish the special interests which
are the chief source of opposition.
The bill has the advantage both
in Committee of the Whole and on
suspension day and its friends, consisting
of at least three-quarters of the House, will
push it to final vote in spite of the fill
buster. If it has come to this that less
than half dozen members can prevent, by
abuse of the rules of the House, the passage
of a bill of National Importance in which
millions of people are deeply interested
then the rules must be and will be changed.
The Oklahoma bill will be pressed to a
final vote, and, in my judgment, at an
early day.

A Young Hero's Fate.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., Dec. ga farm
house seven miles southeast of here, occu-
pied by Ashbury Bryan, his wife and six
children. was destroyed by fire about two
O'Clock yesterday morning and John
Bryan, about twenty-one years of age,
perished in the flames. The family was
awakened by the cries of one Of the
children and had just time to escape
from the building. All except one little
girl got out together and John returned
and rescued her at the peril of his life.
Then as his mother and the children were
standing in the snow barefooted and in
their night dresses, the young hero went
back again to get clothes for them. While
in the burning building he was overcome
by the heat, and his body was found jast
inside a door burned to a crisp. Mrs.
Bryan waded four miles through the snow
in her bare feet before securing help.

THERE vas great activity in the
department Of public works yesterday;
more than has " been before; Main
street seemed TO be lined with teams
engaged In hauling sand and gravel,
which a small army If men were en-
gagged in scattering owe the roadway,
filling up al! depressinns, while An
other contingent Of mechanics were al
work laying crosswalks. or course
everybody was surprised, and much
inquiry vas instituted as 10 the cause
Of the movem ent. Mayor Scheefz
and Aid. Brown were interviewed
and from them II was learned that il is
the intention Of the present city gov
eminent ia clean up and improve the
streets Of the city rs much a. possible
with the means at hand. That was
al, and they helped to make n salts
factory job of it. The work that was
being done yesterday was severely
criticised by almost everybody because
1t consisted mainly in hauling yards
and yards Of sand and gravel on q
road way that Is already higher than
the sidewalks, the general impression
being that instead OF hauling more
dirt on the street a considerable slice
should be hsuled of. This view Of
the case was brought to the attention
Of Aid. Brown ty a JOURNAL repre-
sentative, who was informed by the
Alderman, that il the people would
only have patience they would see the
sides Of the road way ploughed up aud
scraped off, cutters constructed, and
everything done to make a good street
All that was necessary was patience.
Taxpayers did not TO relish
such a wholesale inroad on tie city
funds even for public improvements
and with the expectation that the
matter would in some way come up
before the council ut its meeting last
night, there was present quite a num-
her OF business men, but the matter
was not preached in meeting and a.
none Of the visitors referred to Il, II
still remains a debatable question.
There il no doubt but that the plat.
form on which the Incoming board of
republican aldermen were elected, has
much 10 do with the Improvements;
this platform declared for public i'm
provements consistent with certain
restrictions, and 80 powerful was the
declaration, that 10! aud behold, he
fore the party comes into power It's
effects are felt.
