ELECTRIC RAILWAY COMING The news which we print upon another page this morning, referring to the purpose of Mr. Huntington to construct a crossroads electric railway from Riverside through this city to Huntington Beach, will be very gratifying information to residents of this community. We have believed all along that Mr. Huntington would sooner or later connect Anaheim with his network of electric railway lines. As one of his roads was built to the west of us, and another is now in contemplation to the east, we have not wavered in our faith that sooner or later a crossroads line would be constructed through this city to the beach, intersecting both the roads. And herein is a direct line from the mouth of the Santa Ana river canyon to the coast. His lines already reach Santa Ana mountains mean an acid water for the summer, the grass means fat steaming rivers and creek plenishment of the lakes from which our plants draw their supplying wells mean a rise you call the plane of Viewed from whichever one pleases, the picture rare natural loveliness places on earth outriving splendor. This fact has been known of our residents for a past, and we also person that more than fifty per Los Angeles paper's items" are clipped bodily from the columns of this is not only petty ther paper obtains more false pretenses from ruralsers when it permits th items in probably not too per cent of its entire ediwe occasionally hear of a refuses to take a country cause, as he says, he "get local news in the city day us, and another is now in contemplation to the east, we have not wavered in our faith that sooner or later a crossroads line would be constructed through this city to the beach, intersecting both the roads. And herein is a direct line from the mouth of the Santa Ana river canyon to the coast. His lines already reach Santa Ana on the south, so there seems to be no necessity for his constructing another line to that city from the canyon to the seaside. Indeed, the Placentia line, running by way of Orange, gives him two lines to Santa Ana, one entering from the north, the other from the south. Once his road from Riverside reaches this valley, on its way to the sea, Anaheim will be not only his objective point geographically, but the rich section east and west of us offers such an inviting field that he cannot well overlook us. Mr. Huntington has said he will construct his road from Riverside through this city to the ocean. That is good enough news for us at this time. When he drove through this city some little time ago, in company with Mr. Pendleton, and subsequently secured a franchise to operate his road through Anaheim, we confidently believed work upon the line would soon begin, but the multifarious business interests engaging his attention conspired to direct his energy in other fields. Yet we declined to believe he had abandoned his intention of building his line to this city. Now he has said he would construct that line, and Anaheim stands ready to procure for him a free right of way for his road. The road through Placentia will be constructed, we are informed from a reliable source, as soon as abandoned his intention of building his line to this city. Now he has said he would construct that line, and Anaheim stands ready to procure for him a free right of way for his road. The road through Placentia will be constructed, we are informed from a reliable source, as soon as rails can be laid upon the ground, which will probably require some months. But that it will be constructed, probably within this year, is undoubtedly true. Mr. Huntington has effected a business arrangement with George Gould, and his roads built in this vicinity will add greatly to the development of the resources of the valley. Never have the peaks of the coast range been so hooded with snow in April as at present. The sight from an aesthetic point of view, with the emerald foothills and adjacent valley flourishing in a luxuriance of vegetation, trees in blossom and artesian wells beginning to flow again after a lapse of years, is one beautiful to behold; and the first impressions of the easterner on beholding it is that Southern California is indeed a paradise, a veritable garden of Eden. But there is a more utilitarian way of looking at this picture. The snow-capped RESURRECTION! Oh this grieving for dear faces: (Of the ones, gone on before.) In their rooms and gardens—travel We can find of them, no more. But through grief and hours of faith with light, illumines of way, Love is promised, ever lasting: Bear your cross, resigned this day. Oh such longing for dear faces And a clasp of withered hands? (Like to flowers full of graces, Dead and hidden, 'neath the sand) But have patience, heart of sorrow God is love, and love alone Long it may seem, but to-morrow He will roll away the stone. See the lily flowers are growing For the resurrection morn, And the angels smile for knowing That in death, the soul's new boon. Though the heart is torn with sorrow Like unto the crown and cross, Earth "the Loved" can only borrow They are Gods;—there is no loss. Cease this grieving for dear faces They have passed unto His care Give your heart to heavenly grace, Bow your head, and offer prayer. W. L. M. Pasadena, Calif. contains mean an abundance of water for the summer's irrigation, grass means fat stock, the run-rovers and creeks means reshment of the underground drain from which our pumping lines draw their supply, the flow-wells mean a rise in whatever all the plane of saturation. And from whichever standpoint releases, the picture is one of natural loveliness, with few on earth outrivalling it in color. The attention of the chamber of commerce has been called to the matter a certain Los Angeles paper, which makes large preams to publishing "county does not include its suburban sheet in the city delivery. Act has been known to many residents for a long time and we also personally know more than fifty percent of this Angeles paper's "Anaheim are clipped bodily each week the columns of the Gazette.

Yetasionally hear of a chap who to take a country weekly beats he says, he "gets all the news in the city daily." On MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENTS. On Saturday next voters of this city will be called upon to vote upon the question of issuing $69,000 bonds for the purpose of installing needed municipal improvements. The propositions will be voted separately, as follows; and a two-thirds vote of the people is necessary to carry each into effect: For extension and improvement of the city water works, $23,000. For extension and improvement of the city electric light works, $25,000. For installing a gas plant and laying mains, $15,000. For constructing cement crosswalks, $3000. For oiling city streets, $3000. The matter of issuing bonds for these improvements has already been gone into fully in these columns. If the electric light bonds carry, a reduction in the present rate of 15 cents per 1000 kilo watts to 10 cents is promised. Here will be a reduction of 33 1-3 per cent in the rate now charged for lights. If the gas bonds carry, a rate of $1 per thousand feet will probably be offered, and the charge will be ultimately reduced. So far as the gas question is concerned, there is this to say: The city now has a private gas company operating here and giving excellent service. We do not believe in con- If the gas bonds carry, a rate of $1 per thousand feet will probably be offered, and the charge will be ultimately reduced. So far as the gas question is concerned, there is this to say: The city now has a private gas company operating here and giving excellent service. We do not believe in confiscation of vested property rights, and we believe the gentlemen who are associated in the gas company are entitled to respectful consideration at the hands of the people. They have gone into the business in good faith, a franchise has been granted them for the operation of their works by the city, and they are entitled to and should receive fair and honorable treatment. On the other hand, as was pointed out by Engineer Copeland in these columns some weeks ago, the economy of using gas in conjunction with the other arms of the municipal service, should be given such consideration as the facts of the case warrant. If the gas bonds carry, the private gas company is entitled to and should receive at the hands of the city fair and honorable treatment in the matter of installing the municipal plant. If the private plant can be purchased advantageously to the interests of the people, that course should be followed. The matter is now before the voters, and a decision will be arrived at at Saturday's election. Bonds in the sum of $3000 will be voted upon for constructing crosswalks, and a like amount for oiling city streets. While some opposition has manifested itself to the issuance of these bonds for public improvements, yet it is believed the intelligent voter will give each proposition such RESURRECTION!
