CITY COUNCIL MEETING TONIGHT
GIVES PROMISE OF SOME IN.
TERESTING DEVELOPMENTS
Paving Question Will be Discussed
Purchase of New Fire Apparatus
Will be Up.

The city council will meet at the
city hall tonight in adjourned session,
this being the first meeting that has
been held in over two weeks. To-
nights meeting gives promise of be-
ing an interesting one and no doubt
there will be a goodly attendance Of
taxpayers. Two important matters
are scheduled to come up for final ac
ton. One is the matter of improv-
ing North Fourth and Elm streets
by paving and the other is the pur
chase of a new fire engine and other
apparatus for the fire department.
1t is reported that there is quite a
difference of opinion among the coun-
cilmen as to the kind of fire engine
to purchase. Bids have been received
from several companies manufacture
ing engines and other apparatus and
the principal difficulty will be in
choosing between the different styles
of steamers. 1t is understood that
three of the councilmen are in favor
of purchasing a Metropolitan, while
three others want the Knott engine.
One councilman is said to have not
vet given expression as to his prefer
ence and each of the other factions are
working on him to vote with them.
Paving Question.
The property owners on Fourth
and Elm streets will be out In
full force tonight and some of them
no doubt will be ready to talk to the
council on the subject of improving
those two thoroughfares. The Bar
Der Asphalt company has the contract
for paying Fourth from Main to the
Fourth street bridge, but as it is i'm
perative that the bridge will have to
be reconstructed to conform with
tne pavement. the company has not
vet done any work. AT the last ses-
sion of the council an ordinance was
passed awarding the contract to the
Warren Construction company to paw
the remainder of Fourth and Elm
with bitulithic. A majority OF the
property owners appear to be opposed
to this kind of pavement and they are
ready to enter a vigorous protest. Inls
question promises to be an interesting
one before the matter is finally de-
termined.

|CHANGE IN
STATEHOOD BILL
Arizona And New Mexico May
Be Eliminated From
Measure.
NEW STATE OKLAHOMA

Washington, Jan. ID The inten-
ton is to keep the statehood bill to the
front 10 the Senate during the pres
ent week with the hope OF it's friends
that by the end of the week they may
be able tn get an agreement to vote
on it. Thus far the opponents of the
measure have held out srubbornly
against naming day for vote and
while they dom say in explicit terms
that it is their intention to tillbuster
against the passage of the bill, it is
evident that, unless a compromise can
be reached for the elimination of Ari-
zona from the measure, they will make
an effort to prevent a vote before the
close of the session.
On this account there is more or less
discussion of plans for the moi:fica-
ton OF the bill, and most OF the talk
gravitates towards the amendment sug-
gested by Mr.. Foraker for separation
of the vote of Arizona and New Mexi-
co on the question of admission, or
that suggested by Senator Bard, con-
filming the operation of the bill to the
creation of the State of Oklahoma out
of the Territory of Oklahoma and In
dian Territory, entirely eliminating
New Mexico and Arizona from the bill.
A number of Republicans have an.
nounced the mselves ia ;orable to eth
or Of these notifications and the hope
is expressed that the Democrats may
be brought to accept them.

Bottom, after giving his pursuers hard
race.
For some time the negroes of that sec

curious noise at night, but the white
people paid little attention to them. They
finally claimed they saw a man and he
was wild, and four or five white men
went to the bottom few nights since in
search OF the man About II o'clock the
wild man made his appearance. and,
when spoken to by one of the party, fell
fat or the ground and uttered shrek

dense canebrake.
The party, with lighted lanterns, fol-
owed the tracks in the mud and twice
got glimpse OF the man. After long
chase the party came to hollow poplar
log that had been blown down. An in
veetigation revealed tracks 10 the log and
later the form of man was discovered in
the far end of the log in STOPPING posi-

perfectly harmless. His only covering

ABOUT LIEUTENANT
GOVERNOR HAGGOTT,
He Is The Man of the Hour In
Colorado Politics.

Lieut.. Glove rnor Haggott seems to b,
the man of the hour In Colorado, or
account of his unbending stand against
corporation rule in politics. MIR
Haggott, who is son-in-law of Mr.
John Cecil, of MauIy county, was
elected to his present position severa
years ago on the Republican ticket.
These are trou blous times politically
in Colorado, and while there was
doubtless fraud and corruption on botf
sides in the recent state electlon the
returns show Alva Adams, democrat,
elected Governor by over 1000 ma.
joiity and there is no doubt of MI.
Adams election were all the unfair
votes on both sides thrown out.
Governor Peabody, however, and
the corporation gang behind him have
made every effort to prevent Gov.
Adams being seated. but Lieut.. Gov
ernor Haggott has refused to wear the
corporation collar and follow ring
methods. His official acts have beer
fair and impartial and he
has stood unfilnchingly for justice
He is characterized by the Colorado
press as the Fighting Lieutenant
Governor.
