zens OF Boyle Heights met at Hendricks

lowing resolutions were adopted;

ing resolution was also adopted by the
meeting:
Whereas, The Southern Pacific Rail-
road company has applied to the city

And whereas, The granting OF such
franchise is not only u confiscation Of
the property On Alameda street, but is
detriment to all of that section of the
city lying east of Alameda street;
Be it resolved, That the citizens of
Boyle Heights, in mass meeting here
assembled, most earnestly request our
honorable council to stand by and pro-
tect our interests in this matter and re-
fuse to grant the franchise asked by the
Southern Pacific Railroad company.

GEN. FIELDS FORCE BILL.

Southern democrats still insist in max.
ing the Force bill an issue in this cam
paign, and their attitude toward that
now famous measure, and all others OF
a similar character, may result in fric-
ton with democracy's ally, the indie
pendent party. Gen. Field, the third
party candidate for vice president, was
an officer ia the confederate army, has
been until recently typical southern
democrat, hence, probably knows some
thing Of the high-handed manner Of coz.

recent interview with Georgia news
paper man, Field said;
am decidedly in favor ofthe appoint.
ment of federal supervisors at each
polling place and the placing there, il
necessary, of United States marshals
We are in this fight to get full and fair
count, and it is evidently not the inten.
tion 10 give US a fair showing. For thi.
reason we have decided to appeal to the
national government 10 protect oui
rights as voters through the medium o
federal supervisors and marshsls lr
Arkansas, for instance, We were refused
judges at the elections. and the same
policy is likely to prevail in other south
ern states. 1t is for this reason that we
invoke the power of the federal govern
ment. Our boasted liberties will soor
be valueless unless we can guaranteed
protection to the humblest voter in the
fact that his vote will be properly re
| ceiyed and properly counted.
This is nothing more or less than wa
asked by the republican party som,
time ago. and even now the mere men
ton of the matter raises a deafeninI
howl. 1t remains to be seen how on

'prA@iaAnt Harrison,s attitude toward
the old soldiers, never was In doubt, but
the following extract from his letter OF
acceptance makes more apparent than
ever his kindly feeling and respect for
the veterans of the civil war. The
president said: "The Union soldiers
and sailors are now veterans of time as
well as Of war. The parallels Of age
have approached close to the citadel Of
life, and the end, for each, Of brave
and honorable struggle is not remote
Increasing infrmity and years give the
minor tones Of sadness and pathos to
the mighty appeal Of service and suffer
ing. The ear that does not listen with
sympathy and the heart that does not
respond with generosity are the ear and
heart of an alien and not Of an Ameri-
can. Now, soon again the surviving
veterans are TO parade upon the great
avenue of the national capital, and
every tribute Of honor and love should
attend the march A comrade in the
column Of the yietors' parade in 1866, l
am not less a comrade now"

Crime Decreasing.

All the criminal returns published of
late have happily tended to show that
crime is decreasing. The judicial sta
tistics for the past year bear the same
testimony. Whether under the head of
criminal classes at large" or s.in local
and convict prisons and reformatories, -
the figures show n steady decline. The
same is true of the houses of bad char
acter, by which is meant such as are
the resort of thieves, depredators and
suspected persons. In England and
Wales there are 2.6ss houses of this de-
scription.
1t seems rather odd TO be told. that of
these 345 are public houses aud 265 beer
ahops, because if they are known resorts
OF such characters, why are their licenses
not withdrawn: Is it for the reason
snce given by n French administrators
that they serve the ends of the law by
providing places where those who are
wanted by the police can easily be
. found? The known houses OF receivers
or stolen goods had declined from 7TS
two years ago to 1a4 last year.-London
