A Plague Spot.

There is a plague spot on Main
street that is . public nuisance. A
Chinese laundryman has located there
with all the Objectionable features
peculiar to his class in full view of
children. strangers, and all passers.hy.
Although he has rented only one'hou'e
and lot. he spreads his clothes, wood
and other belongings over three or
four lots. His chickens are not fed,
and invade the gardens and yards for
blocks around in search Of food. The
smell Of opium is ever present, and
the stencil arising from the dirty
water spread out on the ground fouls
the air. while the incessant jahherinQ
OF the heathens adds to the annoy
arce of the neighbors and the public.
The place being in the midst OF
family residences, is doubly obi. Ct
ionable; and can scarcely he endured
While the Chinese have rights that
should he respected, the whites Ger
talnly have some too; and unless thu
heathens voluntarily forexo opium
smoking, keep their yard in som'
sort of order and their chickens a
home, they should he made to.

1t Is Much Easier to Criticise Than to
Construct.

1t Is Much Easier to Criticise Than to
Construct.
lSanta Rosa Republican, December 10th.
Eastern publishers have not ceased their
warfare on the California plan of supplying
school textbooks. They are marshaling
their forces for an attack on the State
series, hoping thus to induce the next
Legislature to drop the work that has been
begun and go back to the old plan. Some
newspapers and some school teachers have
already been enlisted in this contest, and
we may expect more of them 10 take a
hand in the controversy.
1t is probable that there are imperfections
1 n the State series. No set of school books
is above criticism. Whoever has heard the
agent of any series review the books of
another publishing house knows this. As
bad things have been said over and over
again about every other series as has been
urged against our California books. In
many States change follows change as
teachers and Boards of Education are Sin
fuenced' by persuasive agents, and the
patrons of the schools pay the expense Of
these changes. In our own State the books
are furnished at the minimum expense and
the people are not annoyed and taxed by
continual changes.
In regard to the recent action of the Con-
vention of County Superintendent on this
textbook question we desire TO say, sit is
the poor workman who is always finding
fault with his tools" A good teacher will
get excellent results from any set of books
and poor teacher will fail, regardless of
his surroundings.
Most of the work on our State textbooks
has been done by an able thoroughly edu-
Gated and experienced teacher. He is in
every respect the peer of any county super.
intendent or teacher who has found fault
with his work. 1t is not probable that one
of them could make school book that in
excellence would compare with those pro-
duced by him. A small mind may criti-
else and find fault, but one of larger cal
iber is required in constructing.
The criticisms that have been offered by
newspapers, teachers and county superin-
tendents are not in the interest of the gen.
eral public. On the contrary they are the
prelude to legislation that will be asked in
order that the great textbook monopoly
may again get its clutches on the people of
California. We can spare the teachers who
do not like our school books better than
we can spare the plan under which these
books are made in our own State and fur
nished the patrons of the schools at little
more than half the prices formerly paid by
them for books of like grade and quality,
