EUGENE FIELD.
DIED NOVEMBER 4, 1895.

Thy silvery notes are store in many hearts,
The glory of thy singing needs no praise.
For once again we hear the rustltng maize,
And from the ends Of life. where day departs
And shadows draw about us as a pail,
We view the world again with childhoois eye:
The shady glen the swallows soaring high,
The careless, laughing brook: we see them all.
Sweet singer we shall hear thy harmony
Long sounding down the halls of memory
And calling forth those forms OF purity
That lived when we were children-long ago;
And when Death called and laid thy spirit low,
Full many a loving heart was veiled in woe.

Pittsburg Press.

The great body OF the press--perhaps nine
journals everywhere out of ten-has spoken in
favor of the recognition of the belligerent
rights of the revolutionists the moment they
have fulfilled the qualifications of belligerents
as laid down in the international law. Whether
they have done that is a question for inter.

Speedy Punishments viii Check Crime.
Redding Free Press

A spasm of crime seems to be passing over
this county. Murders and shooting scrapes
take place almost every week, and the County
Jail is well filled with prisoners awaiting trial,

alarm of oyerburdened taxpayers. Throughout
the land the punishment for crime seems mad

crime was certain OF severe and speedy pun

thing within the hope of accomplishment
will be fraught with such far-reaching

and every part should contribute the
weight of its influence to the movement
to bring the conventions to the Pacific

ness of purpose we can win the prize.

rising against the Mexican authorities by
the Yaqui Indians in the suothern part
of Sonora. The Yaquis have waged sue
cessful war against Mexico for genera
tons. and they have proved far more SER
ious and dangerous menace to that
country than were the Apaches in Ari-
iona. Their depredations have always
been confined to the Yaqui river. and they
have never carried their incursions to
any other part of Sonora. The Yaqul
flows into the Gulf of California and the
nearest point in the valley is nearly 400
miles from the American border.

ANNEXATION

The project for the extension of the
city limits by annexing the populated
territory contiguous to the municipality
on the south and west should not be per-
nitted to lag. And it might also be adj
visable. while the question of expansion
is up to consider the territory immedi-
ately adjacent on the north and east, es-
pecially the latter. The completion of
Angeles and Pasadena is absolutely Ger
tain to thickly populate a section now de-
cidedly rural in aspect With the cheap
and expeditions facilities for reaching the
heart of our city afforded by the new
road. it is perfectly safe to predict for the
country along the route. in the next five
years, the same growth in population
within a mile or two OF the present city
boundary as similar al ca southwest of
the existing city line has enjoyed in the
last half decade. The exhaustive report of
the annexation committee, as outlined in
yesterdays Herald. set forth an array of
reasons favorable to annexation that seem
practically invincible. The same argu-
ments will apply with equal force in short
time, if not now, to the section thit we
have suggested be included in the consid

TWO KINDS OF WOMEN

Hon. Robert n. Bulla. who proceeded to
the business in hand with promptness
and dispatch. He had no intention TO
offer any arguments in favor of equal
suffrage, for several reasons First, they
are all known; second. the question has
passed beyond the stage OF argument and
has reached that of experiment, and now
the question is, Has the experiments
proved successful where it has been tried,
or otherwise? That course has been pur-
sued with all other subjects-why not
with this? Steam. electricity, higher
education for women and co-education
were each in turn spoken of by Mr.. Bulla.
not used as arguments in favor OF woman
suffrage but to illustrate and prove the
assertion that when once principle has
been established by successful expert
ment, it no longer needs theoretical argu-
ment for It's support. With limited sur
frage in operation in one-half OF the
states of the Union and with unlimited
suffrage in two of them. the only Yerti-
nent question is what has been the Eject
where tried; and next, what is to be done
toward introducing it into this state?
A brief glance was given at the action
of the last legislature in the matter. Fig
ures and statitslcs were shown and COM
putations made as to what might be ex-
pected in the way of n vote on the sub
iect of constitutional amendment in. the
Same ratio that obtained in the last lcgis-
lature. Mr.. Bulla closed his stirring adj
dress with the advice that the women
buckle on their arm 1r and do battle for
just cause. Men might have the excuse
of i'll health, the speaker facetiously re-
marked, but no woman could have any
such excuse. The plan of campaign
should be through the press. Meetings
for agitatlng the subject only attract adj
vocates; the press. daily. weekly,
monthly, reaches the tireslde and the op-
ponents as well as the friends OF the
cause.
Organization IS necessary, continued
Mr.. Bulla state organizations and county
organizations in every county In the
state; through the latter the central or
state organization should be kept in
formed OF all that is done, and how and
when 1T is done.
AS the policy of political parties has
been found to be successful SO should
this campaign be instituted, and the Sec
retary should DC sufficiently recon-
pensed to warrant her devotng her time
and attention to tic work. :,
At the conclusion Mr.. Bulla received
an ovation IN the shape OF fowers. Tor
which he was becomingly and modestly
grateful.
