The citizens of this school district will soon be called upon to vote upon the question of the formation of a high school district. Petitions recently circulated and bearing the names of 160 out of 269 heads of families resident of the district have been filed with County School Superintendent Greeley asking that he call an election to take the sense of the people upon this question. Only a majority of the heads of families in the district are necessary to the calling of the election, and little if any difficulty was encountered in securing that number. Supt. Greeley will probably call the election some time during the coming week, when the people will have before them one of the most important matters that has engaged their attention for a long time past. That the people of our school district are earnestly in favor of establishing a high school admits of no doubt—we shall be laggards in matters of education if we permit younger localities throughout the State to establish these valuable adjuncts to civilization, while we remain without their advantages. There are 30 pupils living here who are graduates of our grammar school, many of whom would probably enter the high school—all of them would probably have continued at their studies after graduating from the grammar school had the high school been in existence. There are 15 scholars in the ninth year for graduation this year, and there will be about 16 in the ninth year next term. Here we have a total of 61 scholars available for the high school at the start. If half of this number should attend, the high school will start with 30 scholars, and there is no doubt the number would go on increasing with each successive year. The school would without doubt be a success from the start. The expense of maintaining the school should be merely nominal. We have already sufficient school room, and one of the unoccupied rooms at the central school could be fitted up to answer all purposes. Fullerton has lately set Anabeim a splendid example in vot- AN ELOQUENT ORATION. Patriotic Memorial Day Address by Mr. C. C. Chapman. At the Memorial Day exercises at the cemetery, on Monday afternoon, the following eloquent oration was delivered by Mr. C. C. Chapman of Placentia, the orator of the day: I bow with profoundest respect before the living members of the Grand Army of the Republic—noble veterans of a mighty war—and for those who sleep in the soil about us I have a heart full of gratitude and a most reverent regard, which I trust will inspire me to say that which, in a small way at least, will honor their sacred memory. The most ancient history of the race tells us of monuments erected to commemorate events regarded as important. These memorials are varied in design and character, from the small stone to the pyramids of Egypt, or the great mounds thrown up by the prehistoric race known as the Mound-builders. Colossal triumphal arches were often erected to honor noted generals and commemorate the return of victorious armies. These but show that there is in the human heart a desire to perpetuate the memory of great achievements and to do that which will prevent the actions in them from being forgotten. It was this natural desire that led to the adoption of the beautiful custom we have today come together to observe. An abiding love for the brave men who gave their lives for their country when our national life was imperiled is ensheined in the hearts of the American people, and they would by this fitting, this beautiful service, commemorate their sacrifices and refreshen sacred memories—a monument grander than the pyramids, and let us hope more enduring. The nation annually uncovers its head as a token of respect to the fallen heroes, and comes with beautiful garlands to scatter upon the sacred sod beath which repose the mortal remains of the once stalwart, manly boys in blue. The din of battle was sweet melody to them; it was inspiring, martial music, and awakened a still deeper love for the old flag. They were led to face death that it might proudly float over an undivided union. As they last looked upon its starry folds it was through the haze and smoke of battle. It was their last march, and today the gratitude of a united nation is shown from the Atlantic to the Pacific by gatherings similar to this, and by the beauty and perfume of oceans of flowers. These brave men had but one life to give to their country, and this was freely given. The old veterans assembled today in every city and village throughout this broad land were willing to have been offered. But the fortunes of war seize their health. Many an old veteran not seen a well day since they perhaps since he received an hard discharge on account of disability in 1863 or 1864. To me it is hard to hear men—and it is new who saw service—complain of his session roll. They defame and those who receive the small Uncle Sam gives to help them old age. When the brave you were in the field, having left home, abandoning every opportunity to make a start in life, these men stay-at-homes, were accumulating energy, building up business enterprise and getting controlling positions. Many of the boys came home, though they had been in touch defeat and adversity in affairs. There was no place for them in the business world and none them had not only contracted but their best days for making good beginning in life had gone. Their opportunity in a business had been lost. What a magnificent pageant to-day presented to the world citizen soldiers hurrying from section of our country at the cape President. They come from the South, from the East West, one as ready and willing other to go to battle under order and that "Old Glory." I say that splendid exhibition of a great thoroughly united. To the sacred dead and to honored veterans, we are indebted for the preservation of this glorious and what a chain of splendid braves have come to us through their flies and yours. What a predicature we would be in to-day in our country! And what sadness in still greater clash of army is by no means improbable in distant future. With the providence might of a united country no situation on earth could withstand together with the Mother God would be invincible against their binned powers of all Europe. The price paid for this strife this glory—was high, and yet that if it was again to be paid great a cause, the flower of our can manhood would once more fully offered. Let us appreciate what we great people, and render due his sturdy Revolutionary father made it possible by their vast sacrifices to unfurl a flag over nation founded upon the principle political and religious liberty-ernment for the people and by people. Did the patriots of any law bequeath a more beneficent hand to posterity? Scarcely more three-quarters of a century had when the sublime national state which had taken an honored among the great political power the world was about to be cut down mighty foe had arisen with The expense of maintaining the school should be merely nominal. We have already sufficient room, and one of the unoccupied rooms at the central school could be fitted up to answer all purposes. Fullerton has lately set Anaheim a splendid example in voting $5000 in bonds for the erection of a high school building. The formation of the Fullerton high school has brought our neighboring town more flattering comment on the part of intending home-seekers than possibly any of its other numerous advantages. Its high school is a standing advertisement of the progressiveness of the people of the town. Let Anaheimers be up and doing, and see to it that we shall have here a high school that will reflect as much credit upon the county as the other high schools in Southern California are contributing to their respective localities. The types made "ducks and drakes" out of our item last week in relation to the election for school trustee, which occurs on Friday, June 3d (to-morrow), instead of June 30th, as printed. Instead of Dr. Gardiner being the only outgoing Trustee, the three members of the board (Gardiner, Rogers and Middleham) retire, Mr. Rogers' three-year term expires, and Dr. Gardiner and Middleham, having been appointed to fill the vacancies caused by the resignation of Trustees Lewis and Heald, the law requires that they hold office only until the next succeeding election. The election will be held at the City schoolhouse, and polls will be open from 8 o'clock until sunset. The following extract, from the Los Angeles Express of May 25, will be of interest, even if it does sound strange: "The San Bernardino Sun says: 'The Los Angeles Express refers to Anaheim as the Model Colony. Does the Express not know that Ontario copyrighted that appellation years ago?' The Express herewith tenders a contrite apology for appropriating Ontario's honors for the benefit of another city. If Anaheim will select a fitting title it shall be appropriated, reserved and copyrighted according to law, custom and tradition. The Los Angeles Express is in more various forms an ass under its present management than has characterized its past record in the memory of the oldest inhabitant. If it will point out wherein Anaheim has ever laid claim to the title which we know belongs to Ontario, or will show wherein that appellation was ever bestowed upon this locality by anyone except itself, it will do the impossible. Its gratuitous suggestion to Anaheim to "select a fitting title" is stupidly asinine, but characteristic of the Express—of the ass, assay. The Express is a herd of asses rolled into one." Boys in bleachers were sweet melody to them; it was inspiring, martial music, and awakened a still deeper love for the old flag. They were led to face death that it might proudly float over an undivided union. As they last looked upon its starry folds it was through the haze and smoke of battle. It was their last march, and today the gratitude of a United nation is shown from the Atlantic to the Pacific by gatherings similar to this, and by the beauty and perfume of oceans of flowers. These brave men had but one life to give to their country, and this was freely given. The old veterans assembled today in every city and village throughout this broad land were willing to have been offered. But the fortunes of war selected their comrades and spared them. We who know nothing of the dread hell of war cannot appreciate the deep emotions which thrill their hearts as they come to-day in this special way to call afresh to memory the awful scenes through which they passed on those Southern battlefields and to think of the gallant boys who fell by their side. This is the inspiration that we know not of and this the explanation why we see year after year these gray-haired veterans assemble in our cemetery and with tender loving hands scatter flowers upon the graves of their comrades. That was a terrible conflict in which they were engaged. A conflict that required the sacrifice of half a million of America's noblest men and cost in wealth over six billions of dollars, and saddest thought of all, it was brother against brother. Though only a third of a century has passed since the last gun was fired, we rejoice to know that the bitterness engendered by this war, and the causes which led to it, finds no longer a home in the hearts of the brave people of the South. There are some scars to be seen here and there, but they are fast obliterated. You fought not that you cherished the bitterness of hate in your hearts for the people of the South, but because you loved the Union. Brave men were they. Their skill, their devotion and their bravery were attested upon many a hard fought field. They were brave but mistaken, and it is now difficult to find an intelligent man in the South who is not at heart glad that they failed in their awful purpose—that the masterful statesmanship and executive ability of Lincoln and his peerless generals and devoted soldiers were able to prevent the dissolution, the destruction of our glorious Union. Among the great leaders under which the boys marched and fought we love to think of Grant, Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan, Meade, Pope, Banks, Hooker and Logan—illustrious names. Though not occupying the most important position, dear to most Grand Army men is the name of Logan, who was not only foremost in organizing the G. A. R., but in 1868 when Commander-in-Chief issued the order for the observance of Decoration Day. He named the 30th of May, and this day has been since annually and lovingly observed, and is now in rest States a legal holiday. For several years Gen. John A. Logan, the Black Eagle, was your Commander-in-Chief. Well did he merit the name of Eagle—his keen, fiery eye was eagle-like. I well remember that the most impassioned bit of oratory to which I ever listened was an appeal made by General Logan in the Republican National Convention of 1880 to General Garfield, chairman of the Ohio delegation, to stand by his old commander, General Grant. I had often seen General Logan, but never saw him on fire before. I then could well understand the power he could wield even in an unelected orchard. Let us appreciate what we are great people, and render due his sturdy Revolutionary father made it possible by their vast sacrifices to unfurl a flag over nation founded upon the principle political and religious liberty; an enternment for the people and by people. Did the patriots of any land bequeath a more beneficent life to posterity? Scarcely more three-quarters of a century had when the sublime national state which had taken an honor among the great political power the world was about to be cut down mighty foe had arisen with grates. What England, the progeness of the seas, failed to do making two desperate attempts seemed at last was to be accomplished. The young giant republic was overthrown—divided! Had it not for the ready response, honor cranes, made by you and your coats who are silently sleeping better sod to the call of the greatest orders, the glorious nation, which so much to the human race, would gone down. The experiment ofocratic government among men have been pronounced a failure had willed it otherwise, and through your valor we are too greatest nation on earth, and I are about ready to fill at least important part of the mission G planned for us. It seems that the Omnipotent all nations held this mighty fire, stretching from ocean to sea from the great chain of lakes gulf, possessing resources abovethere, for a great and might pose. Among all nations none be entrusted with the work H But here in this realm so splendid So He gathered His children from quarter of the earth, and amalgam them, forming a people possessing best traits of them all. A new people, inspired with a brittle spirit than any other people, thus born and nurtured a cradle of liberty, possessing ingenious must lead the ancient to a higher civilization—must tiltize it. The time it seems has arrived mighty onward step in this greeting. The beneficent influence American ideas and enterprise in the American character must be tried to the Orient; to there be leavening work. In this I can hand God almost as clearly fested as in His dealings with thirteen of Israel. A most favored selection—favored not only in its丹特 natural resources, but in its egic geographical location. That stated States at once occupies the what is known as the Eastern Quarter which is agitating the great pledge Being disinterested because no liens we are in a position to controlling spirit in the adjustment these problems, upon which has destined of nations. Russia wants a slice of China, England, and Germany and France Japan. The great Chinese empire has stood intact during these 40 years would be cut up and divided much as dogs would divide a body. Whether this is the divine or not I do not know, but of this one we can be assured—the great V Republic will be an important place what I believe will be an americain justiment of this question and if that the people, the commonand not kings and princes shall beneficience.The English express WE have received a number of communications, one from A. D. Porter, who is with the troops at San Francisco, and another an extract from a letter written by Jos. Hatfield to his wife here, which are unavoidably crowded out of this issue. They will appear next week. ON Friday last a joint committee, consisting of fifteen members, composed of Democrats, Populists and Silver Republicans, appointed by their respective county central committees, convened at Santa Ana to consider the practicability of fusing on a county ticket. A resolution was passed by a unanimous vote, declaring that, "waiving all minor differences, we here and now associate ourselves with one united party, and we demand the free coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1." Other planks were adotted of a general reform character, after which the county officers were apportioned between the three parties. The action of the conference committee is not final, as it is its duty to report proceedings to the respective central committees. STATISTICAL tables prepared by State Meralogist A. S. Cooper show that the total product of the mines of California during 1897 exceeds $25,000,000. Shasta county leads with an aggregate output of $2,250,000. The total mineral product in 1897 was almost a million dollars greater than during the preceding year. And over two million more than in 1895. Newman Esseck is back from Kern county, the mines having closed down. He will take charge of his ranch again. He named the 20th of May, and this day has been since annually and loyally observed, and is now in rest States a legal holiday. For several years Gen. John A. Logan, the Black Eagle, was your Commander-in-Chief. Well did he merit the name of Eagle—his keen, fiery eye was eagle-like. I well remember that the most impassioned bit of oratory to which I ever listened was an appeal made by General Logan in the Republican National Convention of 1880 to General Garfield, chairman of the Ohio delegation, to stand by his old commander, General Grant. I had often seen General Logan, but never saw him on fire before. I then could well understand the power he could wield over men in an onslaught on the enemy. I had the distinguished honor of being introduced to General Grant by General Logan, and with another gentleman (Mr. Studebaker of South Bend, Ind.), of listening to General Grant talk for an hour. Grant was never regarded as a public speaker, but as a conversationalist he had few equals. Even General Logan sat without saying half a dozen words during the entire time, so enraptured was he. There is one name, however, above every other that appeared during those trying times that all—soldiers and civilians—delight to honor. This splendid character must ever have the supreme place in this period of our nation's glory. Enshrined in the hearts of all is the memory of Abraham Lincoln. Other men have excelled him in some points, but is it too much to say that, all in all, Abraham Lincoln stands head and shoulders above every other man of six thousand years. North and South honor him, and well they may. He saved the nation in the perils of an unparalleled civil war. As a statesman he was the greatest of his time; as a philanthropist he gave liberty to a great race; as a leader he was no partisan; as a ruler in desperate times he was unsullied with crime, and as a man his character is untainted with a word of passion, a thought of malice; a trick of craft, an act of jealousy, or the slightest display of selfish ambition. Thus perfected, without a model and without a peer, he was, as I believe, divinely dropped into that turbulent period of our national life to save the nation and to adorn and embellish all that is good and all that is great in our humanity, and to give to future generations the divine idea of free government. Many of those who saw service in the field were spared the enemy's bullets, but the exposure and hardships incident to camp life and long marches under the burning southern sun ruined. Russia wants a slice of China, England, and Germany and France. Japan. The great Chinese empire has stood intact during these 40 years would be cut up and divided much as dogs would divide a box. Whether this is the divine not I do not know, but of this one we can be assured—the great Republic will be an important force what I believe will be an americain justment of this question and in that the people, the commoners and not kings and princes shall beneficiaries. The English law which no doubt is to be the unlanguage, will be planted here gain its process of education. Futhermore, consider the obvious fact that this territory so been won without the loss of that American. Either sacred or fame history scarcely furnishes allel. Even the taking of the Jericho by Joshua's divinely owed army, is hardly more marvelous the victory of our fleet in the pines. To sum the whole matter up, further philosophizing it is that England and America will die world. The English law will be spoken everywhere; that of the English and American will be felt among all nations questionably; however, the character, with its greater acts more pronounced personality, is brilliant genius, will overcome English, and in the end the world be American, and if American tian. The stirring scenes of 1861 to once more being re-enacted. It has again been made for the brave to the battle under the flag—that has meant and ever shall much to the downtrodden and oppressed. Never was there any war than that in which we are engaged. History furnishes no place ever a brave and powerful Whatever may be the result United States went into this sword without the desire for the acquiring territory—without ambition sword was unsheathed only by the sympathetic heart of the An people was touched by the apprehension so holy God will go where mighty ships on the deep, and in the brave men on land, and give the victory. We cannot expect all the bravery Many an old veteran has seen a well day since the war, or perhaps since he received an honorable discharge on account of disability along 1863 or 1864. To me it is humiliating to hear men—and it is never those who saw service—complain of the pension roll. They defame and belittle those who receive the small amount single Sam gives to help them in their old age. When the brave young men are in the field, having left all at home, abandoning every opportunity to make a start in life, these men, the way-at-homes, were accumulating property, building up business enterprises, and getting controlling positions in life. Many of the boys came home, victorious though they had been in the field. Surface defeat and adversity in business affairs. There was no place for them in the business world and many of them had not only contracted disease, but their best days for making a favorable beginning in life had gone by. Their opportunity in a business way had been lost. What a magnificent page there is today presented to the world of our citizen soldiers hurrying from every section of our country at the call of the president. They come from the North and the South, from the East and the West, one as ready and willing as the other to go to battle under one flag, and that "Old Glory." I say this is a grand exhibition of a great country thoroughly united. To the sacred dead and to you, the honored veterans, are indebted for the preservation of this glorious Union, and what a chain of splendid blessings we come to us through their sacrifices and yours. What a predicament would be in to-day in our struggle with Spain with a broken and divided country! And what sad plight do still greater clash of arms which by no means improbable in the no distant future. With the prowess and right of a united country no single nation on earth could withstand us, and together with the Mother Country would be invincible against the comedied powers of all Europe. The price paid for this strength—its glory—was high, and yet I feel that if it was again to be paid for so great a cause, the flower of our American manhood would once more be free offered. Let us appreciate what we are as a great people, and render due honor to our sturdy Revolutionary fathers who made it possible by their valor and sacrifice to unfurl a flag over a new nation founded upon the principles of political and religious liberty—a government for the people and by the people. Did the patriots of any land ever quench a more beneficent heritage posterity? Soarcely more than three-quarters of a century had passed when the sublime national structure which had taken an honored place among the great political powers of world was about to be cut down.

Soarcely more than three-quarters of a century had passed when the sublime national structure which had taken an honored place among the great political powers of the world was about to be cut down. A mighty foe had arisen within the states. What England, the proud misses of the seas, failed to do after taking two desperate attempts, it seemed at last was to be accomplished. The young giant republic was to be thrown—divided! Had it not been the ready response, honored veterans, made by you and your comrades, are silently sleeping beneath the call of the greatest of Presidents, the glorious nation, which means much to the human race, would have gone down. The experiment of a democratic government among men would have been pronounced a failure. God willed it otherwise, and by and through your valor we are today the greatest nation on earth, and I believe about ready to fill at least an important part of the mission God has commanded for us. The seems that the Omnipotent King all nations held this mighty empire, stretching from ocean to ocean from the great chain of lakes to the sea, possessing resources above all others, for a great and mighty purpose. Among all nations none could entrusted with the work He had here in this realm so splendidly adapted to the highest development of He decided to form a new nation. He gathered His children from every corner of the earth, and amalgamated them, forming a people possessing the traits of them all. A new nation, new people, inspired with a broader inner spirit than any other. This people, thus born and nurtured in the middle of liberty, possessing deep reverence convictions, enterprising and generous, must lead the ancient world in higher civilization—must Christize it. The time it seems has arrived for a mighty onward step in this great misunderstanding. The beneficent influence of American ideas and enterprise and of American character must be carried to the Orient; to there begin its evening work. In this I can see the kind of God almost as clearly manified as in His dealings with the Children of Israel. A most favored spot is located—favored not only in its abundant natural resources, but in its stratigraphical geographical location. The United States at once occupies the key to that is known as the Eastern Question, which is agitating the great powers. Being disinterested, because not avaricious, we are in a position to be the controlling spirit in the adjustment of these problems, upon which hang the tinyity of nations. Russia wants a slice of China, so does England, and Germany and France and Japan. The great Chinese empire which stood intact during these 40 centuries would be cut up and divided pretty such as dogs would divide a bone! Whether this is the divine plan or I do not know, but of this one thing can be assured—the great Western public will be an important factor in that I believe will be an amenable adjustment of this question and in a way that the people, the common people, did not kings and princes, shall be the DRINK C.

JUD.R.RUSH, Attorney,Fulton Blk.,207 New High street,Los Angeles. It affords me great pleasure to in this manner testify my appreciation of your skill and methods.
