THE HARBORS OF NEW YORK AND SAN
FRANCISCO
IRON the Alta California Dec Dol

From the Alta California; Dec. 20l
The NEW YORK HERALD speaks sharply in para
graph about the harbor OF that city as magnificent
OF which tue people may be justly proud, but com
plains that IL is made the dumping ground by I'M
scrupulous corporations IL says that the obstruc-
tons in that harDor diminish the tidal now over
25,0O0,00O cubic feet. Their street cleaning com
mission seem TO forget that there is prohibitory
law in that regard, and that vessels OF all nation
alitics offend in tins respect The Pilot Commits
sioners complain OF the nuisance, but cannot sup
press 10 without the aid Of the government or
Legislature. Much OF this complaint might be ap
pied to the city Of san Francisco, and would nt It
as well as 1t does New York. For quarter OF q
century our own magnificent harbor bss seen In

the new building will be dedicated and
a grand celebration held in the adjoin-

well as all the friends of universal edu-

To SHOW how much the students at
Oshkosh Normal School think of Prof.
Graham, we take the liberty of publish
ing the following letter
OSHKOSH, WIS. Aug. 81, 1873.
ED. TRIBUNE AS [ have moved out
here to attend the Normal School for a
while, I would like to have you send me
one copy of THE MANITowoc TRIBUNE
so that I may be kept posted as regards
my own county.
Oshkosh is very lively and pleasant
place. I heard through some of the
students here that Prof. Graham, of the
State Normal School, of this city, has
been nominated for State Superinten-
dent. I have heard great many of the
students say, they wished that he had
not got the nomination, for they regret
to have him leave the school. I heard
many of the younger students say, that
If they had vote, they would vote
against him, if they thought it would
defeat him and be the means of keeping
him in the school. Although we regret
that he may leave us here, we will feel
safe, and find encouragement with him
at the helm as State Superintendent.
Hoping that I may receive the TR1-
BUNE by the next mail, I remain,
Truly yours,

during the three days of practice and
among these were 800 center shots the
highest number ever reached by the So
ciety of these Carl Schmidt of Sheboy-
gan obtained 60 and thus the highest
price S44. 90 in gold. Mr.. E Baus made
the most center-shots in given number
-50-and thus obtained the highest
price on that target. Mr.. Edward Hen
richs of Madison reached the highest
number of rings in three shots and thus
obtained the best price on that target.
The distance from the stand to the
targets was 800 yards and we can assure
our readers that it was no easy matter to
hit the center, firing off hand, at that
distance.
Mr.. E. Baus, of Madison, was declar-
ed the King of the State Society.
The preparations at the Schuetzen
Park by Mr.. r. Klingholz were most
complete and the decorations of the
beautiful hall and surroundings most ap-
propriate and abundant -1
The music by the orchestras of Messrs.
Bieling and Weinsehenk was unexcep-
tionable IN every respect and secured
the highest praise from all the visitors,
declaring it equal to any ever produced
even in Milwaukee. @rae
The aptira- faot;v;fias on5 ox-o,.a;o
gave the most heartfelt satisfaction :;
every arrangement appeared most appro-
pirate and complete. Our own partici-
pants were untiring in their attentions
and the visitors highly pleased and more
than satisfied in their expectations from
our citizens, with but one exception
the conduct of the Chairman of our own
Society; whies was so utterly I'M
gentlemanly that one of the oldest and
most respected members from Milwaukee
could not help giving public expires ion
ot his disappointment in short but
scathing speech at the dinner tab, in
the Schuetzenpark.
On our own part we enjoyed nothing
better, not even excepting the excellent
music, than the dramatic production of
s:Mother and Son" at Turner Hall.
The highest art-truest to nature
was there exhibited by the four princi-
pal actors in manner we have not seen
before even approached 1.-THE delineation
of justice and selfwill overcome by love
produced on the deeply Interested au-
dienee an effect more eleyating and en-
nobhng than any similar effort we ever
witnessed, and might well serve as pat
tern for similer efforts. tsit+ss-s
