THE NORMAL SCHOOL.

While it is the part of wisdom on the
part OF the City Board Of Education to
abolish the Normal School, the reason
which it gives for the decision-a necessity
to economize-is unfortunate. The State
has large, satisfactory and highly devel-
oped scheme for the education OF teachers,
and no city can enter into the plan of edu-
eating pupils to teach without interfering
with the State scheme and, by implication,
casting reflection on its efficiency.
If there were no State normal schools it
would be wise for San Francisco to have
one. Whatever the efficiency of the San
Francisco Normal School, it's existence has
been an impertinence, an intrusion and an
unnecessary expense. The proper function
of municipal and other local schools in the
public-school system is to occupy their as
signed place in the general scheme created
by the Legislature. This is to have gram
mar and high schools, which lead up to the
university. There manifestly should be
but one system OF training teachers, and it
should be under one management Any
other plan leads to a variety of standards
and confusion of results.

MIR. wRIGHT's STRONG WORDS.

To the Editor of the San Francisco CaIl-SIR: l
notice that in your editorial entitled ''The
Miners in Earnest" in your issue of Friday
morning, you characterize my remarks OF last
Wednesday, before the Miners Association, as
ga fierce arraignment OF the farmers, mer-
chants and producers OF the State" What ]
am reported to have said was:
call your attention Mr.. president to the fact
that the gold-miners OF the State of California are
the only independent people in the State. They
are the ones who can best make the contest for the
people. Every other industry is under the control
OF the transportation interests OF the State. Why
should the gold-mlner be under their control? He
alone is independent, and for reasons that you all
know and which need not be stated.
am quite sure would be very far from at
tempting to convey the ides that. all other
classes are willingly su bservient. The mean
ing intended, and which ! should have de-
lined to any audience other than an audience
OF miners, can best be made clear by an illus
tration. Nearly all farm products are bulky
and proportionately expensive to transport
while the expense of carrying the gold-miner's
product is at the most but an infinitesimal
portion of its value.
The subject might be further illustrated, but
that Is unnecessary in order TO show that the
gold-mlner in practical sense is more inde-
pendent OF the transportation companies than
others are.
Perhaps my meaning would have been better
conveyed by saying that every other industry
Is at the mercy of the transports ton interests

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE


To the Editor of the San Francisco CdlL-SIR:
Apropos OF the controversy as to the various
dates given for the birth of Christ, which ap-
peared in an article in last Sundays issue OF
your valuable journal, permit me to add here
q few remarks.
Mr.. Sutro in his correspondence with the
Vatican says: "And according to this calcula-
ton Christ's birth was fifty-three years before
3671, which is 361S; the difference between
the first date (3761), the accepted date, and
the last (3619) would be 143 years." Undoubt.
eddy Mr.. Sutro arrived at this conclusion from
the quotation of "Zemach David" to witt "In
the year 3724 the Christ was captured, and ac-
cordlng to this calculation was his birth fifty
three years yet earlier than the year 3671, as
they formerly said in Sanhedrin." 1t is, how.
ever, very obvious that this passage, found in an
old MS, as quoted above, has reference only to
the capture and crucifXiou and not the birth
OF Christ. The remainder of said passage
should therefore read: "And according to this
calculation was his death ffty-three years later
than the year 3671, etc. as by adding 90 to
3671 we ha We the given date 1874.
That some ancient manuscripts are subject
to revision cannot be disputed. Many an
error might have .crept in in copying and
translating, hence the quotation above given
might not have been an exception.
In chronological work called "Seder Hada-
ROTH" by Rabbi Jechiel, who flourished in the
last century, the passage from "Zemach
David IS given in an entirely different version
OF which the following is a literal translation
THE Nazarene was born in the year 1924
and lived until the year 532, in cycle 532, for
in 532 years the lunar or solar cycles meet; 10
times % being $50 and times 532 is 1924
and 1924 ends in $50, thus was found written
in an old book. z. D., part 2"
This quotation, no doubt, is also somewhat
cratic, and should read thus: ''The Nazare ne
was born in the year 1924 (and lived until the
year $500, at the close OF cycle $50, for in $50
years, etc."
Assuming that the nativity TOOK place in the
year 1924 the accepted Christian era must
needs be calculated from the crucitxion and
not from the birth of Christ, i. e., from the
year next succeeding the crucifxion and the
two dates 1924 and 1861 are thus harmonized
The "Seder Hadaroth" being also our au
thority placing the birth of Christ at $3.50, 6
difference OF 2O1 years. Yours respectfully,

THAT RUNAWAY BOY.

To the Editor Of the San Francisco CalI-SIR:
In your paper of Friday morning I see an
article under the head "He Would Rather
Die" and in justice to myself I believe it but
proper that L say q few words in that
matter, as the boy mentioned is my son. He
is boy who will sit down and read the news
papers like man, only with this difference,
he would read only sensational stories 1
must confess 1 never thought OF what bad
effect 1t might have on him, but beyond all
reasonable doubt that is what caused him
to run away. AS TO my cruel treatment
OF him, that OF course is but an ex-
cuse Tor running away. While it is true
that l have occasionally chastised him
for running with other boys on the street
when he ought to have been at work, or at
least at home or in my store, it has not been
with whipstock, out with leather strap at
tached to the small end OF it. and always on
that part OF the body that is not supposed to
sufter particular harm from such an appliance.
From his standpoint it seems reasonable
enough that it was unjust OF me to punish him
Tor what other boys were allowed to do at their
own sweet will. believe his appearance will
disclose the fact that he was not intended to
be street arab. 1t is unfortunate that his
tender years viii not enable him to see the dis
grace he has heaped upon his parents. But
feel amazed to learn from my wife that the
officer who brought her the news OF having
found him should have requested her to give
him $40 for his trouble. Luckily she did not
have that much with her, but she handed him
20. The police deserve no credit at all for find
ing the boy, as they have had the case in hand
for five or six weeks and never found any trace
or him until q newspaper reporter got wind Of
It, and much against my wish got the whole
affair from a brother-in-law of mine. Hoping
you will publish this, l am very respectfully
yours, P. Rasmussen

A PECULIAR OFFICER,

After the exhibition of his temperament
which United States Marshal Baldwin
made at the hanging of st. Clair and Han
sen last Friday it is difficult to see how he
can conscientiously retain his Office or how
President Cleveland can keep him there.
Mr.. Baldwin deserted his post of duty at
the most critical moment, and had it not
been TOR the superior efficiency of the State
officers in the San Quentin prison the
probabilities are that al incon ceiyably dis
graceful scene would have been witnessed.
1t is believed Mr. Baldwin excluded re-
porters because he feared that his courage
would fail and that the press would put
him in disgraceful light He did exactly
as he feared he would do, but the papers
published the fact nevertheless, and he has
suffered the humiliation of which he
feared.
1t is nothing whatever to his discredit
that he has temperament which makes
the execution of the death sentence IN
speakably repulsive to him. On the con-
trary, 1t Is evidence OF fine sensitive and
sympathetic nature, and that is a credit to
any one. Nor is it discreGit to other
men that they lack such extreme sensi-
tiveness if they have good qualities to COM
pensate for the lack. 1t was highly credit
able to the San Quentin officers, for in
stance, that they had the courage to avert
shocking scene by performing a duty
which rested upon Mr.. Baldwin alone.
But Mr.. Baldwin's official aspect is an
other matter. He likely knew his own
temperament before he accepted the office
he knew that it was possible he should be
called on to execute the death sentence
his whole conduct Immediately before the
hanging showed that he knew himself to be
incompetent for the task. 1t was clearly
his duty then to resign his Office. AS he
did not then exhibit that high sense of
duty which we should expect from man
of his high-strung and sensitive tempera-
ment, it is not likely that he will now per-
form his urgent duty in resigning. That,
however, should not prevent the President
from meeting the contingency. AS Mr..
Baldwin has doubly disgraced his Office by
neglecting to resign before attempting the
performance of a duty which he was sure
he could not properly discharge, if at all,
and by falling to perform it at last, the
President cannot avoid removing him.

RANDOM NOTES.
BY JOHN McNAUGHT.

The clear voice of Mr.. Greer Harrison's
condemnation of New York assumptions
has penetrated to that far land. and the
air over there is filled with the reverbera-
lions of multitude Of fools bowling forth
discordant replies. To some extent this is
not unexpected. We knew, of course, that
when the heel of California culture was set
upon the worm of Eastern rudeness the
worm would turn, but it was not expected
the worm would come back roaring like
the bull Of Bashan and disturbing the
whole country with a noise laid to our &C
count. The turning was all right, but the
roaring is an impertinence which it is the
duty OF every Californian to rebuke gently
as BELTS our Pacific climate, but resolutely
in accordance with our Western style.
Western cities by an immemorial custom
have an established right to criticise all
cities to the east OF them. New York ex-
ercises this right with great vigor and per-
sistence at the expense of London and
Paris, and has therefore no right to COM
plain when we indulge ourselves in SINH
lar treat at her cost. It would be reyolu-
ton in the course of civilization if the
East should seriously revolt against the
educating voice of the West. The star OF
empire would turn backward. 1t would
be as if Spain should seek release
from Cuba. The voice of the West should
ev er be regarded in the East as the voice
of conscience, and while it is permitted
unto the East to turn, it should always be
a turning to repentance.
The culture of a community like the wit
of an individual is pleasing only when it
is original, fresh and freely fluent in all of
its phases. When it becomes old, stale
and formal it assumes the rough uncouth-
ness of a chestnut burr; it even grows
woolly in body and has whiskers on if.
Now, the culture of New York is much
older than that of San Francisco, and con-
sequently is much more of a chestnut, not
to say more woolly. We, therefore, having
the vigor and the excellence of fresher.
more original and more Western culture,
have threefold right to use the shears OF
criticism in clipping the wool off New
York, even to the taking OF the hair also.
and possibly some of the skin as scalp
for our wigwam's adornment. Nor should
New York be allowed to make too much
fuss about it. Does she not live IN q world
where the Lord tempers the wind to a
shorn iamb2
The culture of community can be fairly
estimated by the homes the people build
for themselves. If the rich folks of San
Francisco had ignored the commanding
views of the bay and the Golden Gate, and
had erected their mansions on Morton
street, what visitor to the City would not
have said: "Behold a community where
there are many kinds of fools, but all OF
one degree" Yet the rich of New York
have done Just about that kind of thing.
With avenues commanding fine views OF
the Hudson River and the lofty Palisades
beyond, they have built themselves houses
ana even palaces on a narrow thorough
fare commanding'no views at all and run

alist. The lash was taken from his hand
and applied to himself. He was thor
oughly fageilated. The baseness OF his
nature, the prostitution of his genius, the
degeneracy of his mental qualities and the
utter insignificance of his life were fully
portrayed. Mr.. Bierce felt the lash and
retired without word, and has not dared
to bray in that direction again. Am
brose Bierce has only been powerful be-
cause his victims ware powerless. But his
supremacy is gone, and he is only sign
post, marking the wreck of an utterly
wasted life, and the grave of literary
bully. To-day Am brose Bierce is merely
a literary eunuch, his utterances the windy
spasms of an uneasy frog, and his criti-
cisms the sour output of disgruntled
mule.
Once Bierce dared to say "poor old
God" Let US paraphrase and say, ''poor
old Bierce, poor old Dodo."
