a long newspaper column OF agate type.
Usually the sheets went to the printers
without a blot or erasure. Yet MI.
Fields best productions were by no
means hastily done. A poem or story
grew in his mind for days, and some
times for weeks or months, before a
word of it was written. Finally its
turn came, and then the whole was set
down in all haste. Apparently there was
never a lack of subjeoS. The trouble
lay mainly in the picking and choos-
ing. Realizing that his ability to do
good work was constantly increasing,
Eugene Field was slow to publish his
stories and poems in book form. His
volumes were issued because not even

which will not be for five or six months
yet, is to be set up in the city Of Charles

How Pioneer Legislators Equipped
Themselves to Fight the Indians.
IL the state legislature should vote to
each member OF both houses a first-class
rife, sensation indeed would be created.
But few are aware that such a precedent
has been established by a legislature of
Washington territory. 1t has been so long
ago, though, that the incident has almost
faded from memory, and there are but
few Of the members left to relate the cir
cumstances-
1T was in 1856. when was a member
OF the council, that We passed a law Civ
ing each legislator a rifle" said Hon. r.
s. Robinson, wealthy old pioneer farmer
living near Chimacum in jefferson coun-
~, while going TO Port Townsend the 9TH
er night on the steamer Resale. Being
In a reminiscent humor, he told about the
exciting times the pioneers experienced
in both lodging Indians and navigating
the waters of Puget sound in frail canoes.
1T was just preceding the Indian out
break OF 1867, and the settlers were APP
prehensive Of a sudden onslaught" contin-
ued Mr.. Robinson. Gov. Stevens had Sc
cured from the war department several
stands of small arms and ammunition.
which were intended for general distribu-
ton, and we thought one feasible plan
was TO provide each legislator with a ri
fie and ammunition. Many times since l
have thought of the incident. and how
ridiculous it would seem if our present
legislature adopted our course as a pre-
cedent. and armed each member at the
states expense. Things have changed
considerably. In those days guns and
ammunition were perquisltes. Now It Is
stationery, lead pencils and waste baS-
kets."
\ few months later Mr.. Robinson was
made quartermaster general of the terri
tory. with headquarters at Port Towns
end. Then war broke out with the In
dams. The latter murdered Collector OF
Customs Ebey, on WILDLY Island, oppo-
site Port Townsend. and took his head
away up into the wilds OF British Column
