This leaves deficiency Of s37, ,79O 40 still

mittee recommend the reduction of twenty
per cent on salaries of teachers, said reduc
tion to date from July |, during vacation.
The adoption of these suggestions, will in
the opinion OF your committee, bring the
expenditures of the board within the re
venue.
Respectfully submitted

Chairman
T. G.. TRACY,
THOMAS CAREY.
Mr.. Carey in the chair.l
Judge Lyncn stated he could not vote to
reduce the salaries of the teachers for they
received little enough,
Judge Dibble stated he would offer an
amendment to the report, which he should
vote for. He gave some statistics of the
average number of pupils to teacher in the
public schools, as furnished by Assistant
Superintendent J. V. Calhoun, as follows:
Milwaukee. 43;tW ashington. 50: Boston,
40; Detroit. AS; Chicago, 43. Philadel phia,
42;; Pittsburg, 6li Cincinnati, Al St. Louis.
46; New Orleans f'5
He suggested IT, proposed reduction of
expenses would b& aided By the following
resolutions, which he offered:
Resolred. That the minimum number of
scholars to the teacher in each school, to be
determined from the average daily attend
ance, for daily attendance, shall be forty
two.
Resolred. That the committee on teachers
be charged with the enforcement Of this
resolution
The resolutions were adopted.
Much discussion followed on the power Of
the board to make the reduction and the
greater advantage to the teachers which
would follow frqp the adoption of the re-
duction of tweatf per cent than cutting off
all the salaries foE three months. As only
two months void be affected, the con-
tracts being thadb on the first of Septem
ber, i. was favored by nearly all the board.
1t was deemed n ressary to rescird the
former action Of Il 3 board, and Mr.. Ingra-
ham offered the folHwing:
Reso,red, That the resolution adopted By
this board at the April meeting, to vacate
the positions of the teachers during vaca-
ton, be and tie same is hereby repealed.

this individual, showing the position OF
your two correspondents as compared with
the exalted position that he, Mr.. Roy, in
cidentally occupies above his fellows. i. e.

ignorant Irishmen, and he, Andrew Roy,
is like unto the priest, in having the power

The Chinese question is, and has been,
the most important one presented to the
people of the Pacific coast. We have beg

gress to meet the emergency. We sent a
petition to Congress, signed by twenty
two thousand people, asking moditca-
ton Of the treaty with China, 50 as To
make it a commercial one, with equal ad
vantages as well as equal privileges 1t is
our privilege to 90 to China and theirs
to come here; it is an advantage to them
but not to as.

ought to be copied into every labor paper

families; in their places, if we could get
rid Of them, we could give employment
