The glorious victory won by the women Of the great State of California is not only a decided triumph of the cause, but proves the strength of the sentiment of equal suffrage more decidedly than any other movement that has culminated so auspiciously that it is likely to extend its influence abroad and permeate many localities, or at any extent other states in the Union. Great things may be ex'pected to transpire very shortly. The National Council of Women of the United States,- with which the Relief Society and the Young Ladies Mutual Improvement Association are affiliated, will hold its Executive Session in Chicago, at the Auditorium Hotel, the 13th and 14th of November. It will be an important session as it will be necessary to fill the vacancy caused by the demise of Airs. Lillian M. Hollister. - The condition of"matters in our City demands from every good citizen at the present time, the best efforts that can be made for such measures to be brought about as will introduce a new order of things, and do away entirely and forever it is to be hoped with evil and corruption, and introduce such an order of good city government as shall utterly prevent the reign of vice and iniquity that has been so disastrous to the peace and.
