| We do not notice that the parties who
knew how to make state are progress
ing with any dizzy rapidity. Their reso-
luton that we ought to be state was
respectfully received by the senate OF
the United States and referred to the
committee on territories. The committee
on territories has never yet
made q state and undoubtedly
never will. Yet it is restful sort OF a
committee and the resolution will
probably have quiet, easy time. How
like mild and peaceful dream this thing
seems to be drifting into the hither.
There is no clash of resounding arms.
no shrieks and moans ard cory grass.
The constitutional convention, after
eighteen months of labor, lawfully, and
within the statutes, resolves
that the south half of Dakota should be
admitted as state and the senate nf
the United States placidly relegates the
resolution to the oblivion OF q committee
pigeon hole. How safe We all are from
the menacing steel of the armed cohorts
of the republic. We will continue to
proceed as blissful, happy nonentity,
still Loyalty clinging to the sapless
breast of our mother country, who is now
congratulating herself over her escape
from the accession of pair of twin sis
ters into her numerous family. The
constitutional convention has done its
duty, the senate has responded, the com.
mittee echoes the response and peace
thrice blessed, broods Ger the scene.

Sunday afternoon citizen who was
long a prominent figure in local affairs
died suddenly at his home in East Los
Angeles. Cristoval Aguilar held promi.
nent Office under Mexican rule as far
back as 1894. In 1850 he was elected
a member of the first city council under
the domain Of the United States. He
was councilman also in 1855, 1856,
1858, 1861 and 1862. In 1866 he was
elected Mayor of the city and reelected
in 1868. In 1871 he was again chosen
to fill the same Office. He was at one
time a wealthy man and brought
up large family with much
care, giving each a good
education. Later he lost most Of his
property, as many others did, in the
dark days of the municipality before
there was a market for the products Of
the soil. For some years past Don
Cristoval served the city faithfully as
zanjero or deputy Zanjero. He has suf-
fered more or less lately, and is supposed
to have been afflicted with heart dis
ease. The manner Of his death seems
to confirm this view. He was getting
on his horse to ride out and see to a
water ditch, and fell back dead. The
funeral takes place to-day at the Church
of Our Lady of Angeles. the Reverend
Father verdaguer officiating. There
will be large attendance. His age
was 20 years.

A GREAT SCHEME.
TuIsre swamp Land 90 be ne

SAN Francisco, April IL "A company
Of capitalists is being formed to carry
out one of the most extensive and i'm.
portant irrigation aud transportation
schemes ever projected in this State,
which will solve the question of trans
portation in the upper end OF the San
Joaquin valley, and open up to use
nearly half million acres OF land which
are now under water and nearly a hall
million more acres which for want OF
water are now little better than desert.
The gentlemen who have this scheme
in hand propose TO permanently
lower T flare Lake to fifteen feet below
its present water level, which, according
to the report OF State Engineer Hall.
made to the Governor on February %,
1877. is 203 feet above the mean high
water mark at Antioch. This reduction
of level in the lake Of fifteen feet will
reclaim about $4,000 acres, including
the swamp land on the line OF the pro-
posed canal. all now under water or sub
ject to frequent overflow. There are
no hills or high lands intervening that
will have TO be cut through at great ex-
pense, and all the work can be done in
less than two years by the use OF steam
exeevators and at cost not to exceed
81 1000, 900. To utilize the water on
arid lands on the west side of the San
Joaquin q number Of small bitches will
be cut. They will be paid for
by the owners of the land to be
irrigated Before the work can be car.
ried out the Legislature will be asked in
the usual manner to form swamp land
district and to give title to the surveyed
lands as soon as they are drained.
