EDITORS HERALD-In the published
proclamation by the governor, for the
assembly districts, the seventy-sixth
district is given as follows, as it appears
in the Express of last evening:
"76. All that portion of Los Angeles
county contained in the townships OF
Soledad, San Fernando, Ell Monte, San
Gabriel, La Ballona, Azusa, Whining
ton, San Antonio, and all that portion OF
Los Angeles township not contained
within the city limits of Los Angeles
city, one member"
1t will be observed that Compton and
Chautauqua townships are not included,
and that throws said townships out of
the seventy-sixth district, and includes
them in the seventy-eighth-the Orange
district. We Comptonians two years
ago voted in the seventy-sixth, and con-
tributed materially to elect .Dad'' Bri-
erly, and the Democratic county conven-
ton must have supposed that this
township was still in that district, as it
nominated candidate for the assembly
who is resident of Compton. Can you
unravel the mystery as to when we
were excluded, or why the governor
omitted the townships of Compton and
Chautauqua in his defining the seventy
sixth district? INQUIRER.

Teachers Meeting.

MINERAL POINT, Wis, Jan %, 1890.
A regular meeting of the the teach
ers was this day held with full at
tendance.
4 summary of the Fall term OF Is
weeks, in the lower grades, revealed
some strange discrepancies, in the
matter of hardness. While they were
all but eliminated in one department
the Second ward second primary re-
porting only one case they ran up to
the scores in Others. Such distressing
irregularities can, in a measure, be OBJ
waited by reform in home manage
ment.
The first On the regular program was
a paper by Miss O,Dowd, entitled
Second Primary Geography, its scope,
methods, and results.
She confined her paper to presenting
in modest, nonpresumptiye manner,
a detailed account of the plan she en-
ploys to teach Geography to the little
folks in her department. She begins
at home and calls their attention to
their natural surroundings. From the
study of hill, is developed the idea
of a mountain. \ creeks suggest the
idea of a commercial waterway. One
of our small valleys is magnifed into
a vast plain, dotted with cities, check
cred with farms, and supporting null
titudes of people.
The next was paper by Miss Gates,
the subject of Reading as
to High school work, in
orthoepy and articulation.
Such reading class as the one re-
ported by Miss Gates must be trying
to a beginners nerves; nay it must be
a calamity. But we are glad to learn
that by judicious management and CO.
plouS applications OF rules, the unfor-
tunate victims of professional neglect
are out OF danger.
The Secretary was next called upon
to present his methods of conducting
work in reduction of de-
nominate numbers.
Mr.. Cabanis presented plan for
developing the subject of fractions be-
fore little folks.
He afterwards took up the subject
of principles as applied to the opera
tons, which elected some lively and
healthy discussion.
Meeting adjourned to re-assemble in
four weeks. JOHN p. DAVIES, Sec.
