OUR TAX swINDLEs.

The following paragraph, copied from the
EruuaiHer of Monday may need word of
explanation for the benefit of those persons
Who do not realize what is taking place in
SAN Francisco:
The Eramiucr. on Tuesday morning, white
washed " all its contemporaries. and startled
san Francisco with the announcement that the
assessm ut roll OF the city had been increased
80 per cent, amounting to an addition Of $685.
30S,5 ,55G. II was a neat Bit of journalistic enter
prise aud set the Eb1plineT far in advance Of all
lis competitors as newspaper.
1t was doubtless neat trick for the Er-
aHiHer TO intrigue with a set of officials
who claim to be Republicans, by which the
valuation Of property in San Francisco has
Eeen raised by nearly 100000, O00 A pretty
large sum property-owners will say, by
the tine the taxes have been paid. How did
the ErdHtiner obtain this information before
Republicans even could get it? a glance at
the columns of the Examiner shows how and
why. The Examiner had supported the
Board of Equalization in its contemplated
raid upon the Taxpayers, and information
of what the Board had done was given the
Examiner in part payment for services
The members of the Board are in our opin-
ion, men who wish to have the bosses rule
the State for a while longer. The Examiner
10 ks have been counubiating with the
b0sses in the Republican party, and what
pleases one class of bosses pie ases also both
classes Of bosses. What comes next? The
effort is made to compel the inhabitants of
San Francisco to pay not only an increased
tax to The State Of about S262, 900, but to city
officials also of some S9OS, 900 more. A nice
arrangement, surely. Here. altogether, is
an effort made to get hold Of 81, 900 of
money more than is required for the real
wants of the State and this city. The Eram-
iRcr has worked for bosses ever since it
came into possession Of the Hearst gang,
and who is SO blind as not to realize that the
Examiner wishes 10 get its particular boss
again hack into power? What next? 1t is
said by the plunderers that the courts will
make our citizens pay not only the 1892, 900
TO the State, but also upward of $500, 900
more to our city officials. Perhaps so. Per-
haps our courts will see their way clear to
turn over nearly 100000 to our city Off
ciais, but after the decision in relation to the
city printing Swindle, We admit that this
city looks as if it was in bad way.

MORE ABOUT "oRAMMING."

THE CALL Is in receipt of numerous let
ters from parents of pupils IN our public
schools, TO nearly all of which names and
addresses are affixed. The fact that parents
do not make anonymous complaints shows
that they believe their complaints to be
Just. One gentleman, prominent in busl-
ness circles, selects the third grade as one
of the worst examples of the ''cramming'
process. Another has daughter in the
Girls High School who is i'll from over
study. third is keeping an eight-year-
old girl at home rather than subject her TO
the requirements of the school authorities.
These answers show why the attendance
upon our schools has fallen off within the
last five years. There is, in fact, much rea-
son to doubt if better results are obtained
through attendance upon our public schools
now with their twelve months session than
were obtained in New England forty years
ago in the three months of tine school year.
In those old-time schools there were the
beginners and the graduates. The teacher
divided the sixty pupils, more or less, into
classes. He taught one the A B &, the other
algebra and such lessons in grammar as
connecting the subject and the verb in
paradise Lost" or "Pope's Essay on Man."
He had no course of study for guide, no
one undertook to tell him how to teach.
Yet at the age of IS years, or thereabout,
pupils left school with good business ed
ueation and fair command of their native
language. Many men have risen to emi-
nence with no other schooling than the
three winter months of the eight or ten
years of their school life. Now schools are
graded so that each teacher teaches the
branches assigned to her to all her pupils.
She does not range from the alphabet to
mathematics and the higher stages of gram
mar The school year is forty-two weeks.
The teachers are paid by the year and their
salaries are about four times as much as
the teachers of an ungraded school received.
Twenty TO twenty-five dollars mouth and
board was the usual compensation, in those
days, while now salaries in the primary aud
grammar grades range from S720 to $3.50
year. We have now in this city more than
fifty principals drawing from 500 to $500
for supervising teachers. This cumbrous
and expensive system would not be objected
TO if il produced commensurate results.
But the results are so unsatisfactory that
many of the parents who are taxed to sup
port the schools prefer to send their chill
dren to private schools.

FIVE MILLIONS WANTED.

The opinion is quite universal in Chicago
that the Federal Government should donate
the sun of S5.oO0O0O to the Worlds Fair.
The opinion is about as universal in New
York that the Federal Government should
not. The difference OF opinion grows out of
the fact that Chicago got the fair from New
York by making promises which New York
now thinks Chicago should fulfill. The
Chicago statement is that Chicago has done
all 1t promised to do, but that the project
has grown on its hands. We do not know
that this statement is correct Chicago
promised to raise SIC, 600, but that she
has raised the full amount depends upon
assertion. IL Chicago has raised $10,000-
600, and another S5000,000 Is needed to put
the enterprise on its feet the call for Gov
eminent aid is not unreasonable. The
error in Judgment in estimating the cost of
the work is not chargeable to Chicago. 1t
was a common error to all the cities that
contested for the prize. But there are some
difficulties in the way of a Government
loan. The Chicago subscribers to the S1O,-
000,000 fund have a legal claim upon the first
receipts. Subscriptions were obtained upon
the pledge that money subscribed would be
paid back out of the receipts. VIII these sub
scribers now consent TO surrender of their
claim to the receipts, and can surrender
be valid which is not signed by all the sub
scribers? California is interested in the
fair on national Considerations. This State
has not been used well either by the local
directory or the National Commission. The

QUERY AND ANSWER.

In answer to the question, "What is the
advantage of silver currency over limited
paper issue guaranteed by the United
States?' the Erdminer says: with the
paper issue the Government must guarantee
the whole value. 100 cents on the dollar.
With the present silver dollar the Govern
ment has to guarantee only the difference
between the bullion value and the face
value-say 20 cents"
This answer is misleading. In issuing
silver dollars the Government does not guar
antee anything. The silver dollar is full
legal tender. The Government makes no
promises to give gold dollar for it. The
fact that the Government receives the silver
at its par value for all dues makes it prac-
tically interchangeable with gold, but the
Government does not enter into any obliga-
ton to give gold for it. The advantage of
silver dollar over paper lies in the fact that
silver dollars are money while paper is cur
rency redeemable in money. In the event
of a crisis the Government might be called
upon to redeem its paper issue, but not its
silver issue. The silver dollar is not a
promise to pay; it is payment itself Just
at the present time the Examiner is so fully
occupied in an effort to persuade MIR. Nj. j.
Favin to repudiate obligations he regards
as Just that it cannot be expected 10 inform
itself upon other subjects it presumes to
handle. Within a week it has devoted the
greater part of its editorial space to Mr..
FlaYin and THE CALL. 1t seems to imagine
that if it can prevent THE CALL from real
izing on small account it will have done
itself some good. However, so long as its
readers are content with the misinformation
it imparts in its query column and the
abomiuabIe morals it incucates in its edi
torial columns, THE CALL is not Immediately
interested, but will occasionally avail itself
of its right as a public journal to correct
misStalements.

A COUNTER MOVE.

If, as reported, England has taken military
possession of the island of Mitylene, the act
is an answer to Russia's forced passage of
the Dardaneiles. The landing of troops on
this Turkish island is an inlimation to Rus
sia that in future Russian vessels will not be
allowed to pass through the straits. The
two nations will then occupy position
which offers the alternative of war or
complete backdOwn. Russia was some
years in persuadng Turkey to let her war
vessels through the Dardanelles. and En-
gland has had the emergency before her all
this time. If England has finally resolved
to hold the straits by force the conclusion is
that she prefers the chances of war to the
certainty Of Russian possession of the
straits. The reasonable assumption is that
England has not taken this step without
consultation with the nations forming the
Triple Alliance. II these nations have
agreed to act with England in the matter it
is because England has in effect become
fourth party to the Triple Alliance. The
outline OF division Of Europe for war pur-
poses is thus discovered. France will cer-
tainly support Russia. To hesitate would
be to permit Russia to be crushed, and the
armies of the victorious alliance to be at
liberty TO dictate terms to France II the
reported move of England is a fact the way
to escape great war does not seem to be
