Sunday morning was certainly
cool. Ice was frozen on standing
water an eighth of an inch thick.
There was a heavy frost. Some
early garden stuff was frozen
down but aside from this it is
thought little damage was done.
It is thought the fruit was not
damaged.
George Ogg, whom many of

This is indeed hard luck, but
nothing daunted by it, George
will go ahead with his work and
make good when gathering time

Hrownvillc has Another Fire
Brownville had another fire
Monday night. This time the
fire broke out about 7:30 p. m.,
in the home of Mr. Courtney,
father of J. W. Courtney of
Nemaha. The house was a
frame, southwest of the depot.
Mr. Courtney was eating his
supper when some of the neigh
bors ran in and told him he
better get his furniture out as
the house was on fire. The
household goods were all saved
but some of them were consid
erably damaged. The house was
insured for $400. It took hard
work to save the livery barn
occupied by Homer Stokes, on
the east, and it was scorched in
places. The house on the west
of the one burned also had a
close call.
Senator Joe Burns was chuck
ling to himself yesterday over
the fix the Douglas county inem
bers are likely to get themselves
into over the part of the primary
law that puts platform making
in the hands of a convention
consisting of one delegate from
each county. "Under this act,"
said Joe, "the smallest county
will have just as much influence
as Douglas or Lancaster. As
soon as these outside counties get
onto their power they will make
a platform proposing prohibition.
'Now since the carrying out of
platform pledges seems to be
popular, the members of the
legislature will have to submit a
prohibitory amendment. The
parties that have prohibition in
their platforms will endorse the
amendment, and under the ruling:
of the KiinremG court this wint er,
preme court this winter,
right party vote will be
5 , ., . ,
for prohibition. Douglas
every str
counted for
county has had as much to do jnto effect, for incompetent and travel
with bringing this about as any . ling fakirs will be shut out from ex
other county. I wonder how i perimonting with people's eyes when
they will like it when they realize
that under these new arrange-
ments prohibition can be carried
in Nebraska in less than five
years." - State Journal.

A New Stale
Epworth Herald.
A new state is coming into the Union.
And it comes with a new standard. For
ovor a hundred days the constitutional
convention of Oklahoma has been in
session. It has completed its work at
last. And a line piece of work it is.
The constitution is to bo ratified or re
jected by the people on August G.
Here are some of the- things for
which this new stale the star of the
southwest stands: The initiative and
referendum; the nomination of all state
ollicers and of United States senators
by primaries; succession in holding
state ofiicos prohibited; two-cent rail
road rate for passengers; railroads are
not allowed to own any productive
agency of a natural commodity, such as
coal lands; corporations cannot own
more land than is absolutely necessary
in conducting their business; a com
pulsory and separate school system is
established.
But the provision in the constitution
that is attracting most attention is that
which relates to the regulation of the
liquor traffic. Tho daily papers, upon
which we are depending for these state
ments, report that "Oklahoma will boa
prohibition state, the most stringent
liquor law in existence, prohibiting not
only the sale but the introduction of
liquor into the state, being provided for.
Tho enabling act provided that Indian
Territory must accept prohibition for
twenty-one years. Tho convention pro
vided that the whole state shall vote on
the question and there is no doubt that
the terms of the enabling act will be
made uniform over the whole state."
We do not hesitate to say that it
gives us great delight to learn these
facts. That a state constitutional con
ventiou will go to this length in grap
pling with the iniquitous traffic shows
the power of an aroused pnblic senti
ment. The fight in Oklahoma has been
a long and bitterly contestdd one. It
began when the territories that go to
make the new state knocked at the
door of congress and applied for the
privileges and dignities of statehood.
Every inch has been fought. And the
friends of righteousness and decent
government have won! Over this result
good folk everywhere should rejoice
greutly.
... But the fighting is not all over yet.
The friends of law and order in Okla
homa must line up again for the next
struggle.
That constitution must be adopted on
August (5. The provision concerning
the throttling of tho monstrous business
must be made a part of the constitution
al law of the state. And that means
viguence, hard work, agitation, no
compromise, and, when the hour of
decision comes, the depositing of the
rightiballot in the box.
We firmly believe that right wiil win
again in Oklahoma. Let all citizens
there who want to keep their state free
from the frightful depotism of the
saloon stand up and be counted for
righteousness on August U.

As an evidence of the regard
of the members of the house
toward Representative E. B.
Quackenbush, of Nemaha coun
ty, a resolution of sympathy was
passed unanimously and the
house adjourned before the noon
hour when it was announced that
scarlet fever had broken out in
his family and he was compelled
to go home at once.
Mr. Quackenbush has taken
high rank among the members of
the house and he has had much
influence in shaping legislation.
He forced the Omaha delegation
to abandon the right to assess
the franchise value of railroads
in the cities. His construction
of important features of the 2
cent fare bill and the railway
commission bills was adopted.
His reciprocal demurrage bill
stands a good chance of being
enacted into law. Lincoln Star.
