mitted into the public schools, or must they
be taught in their own institutions?" was sub
mitted TO Superintendent Babcock, who in
turn asked for the opinion of the State Super
intendent and received the following answer:
In reply to yours of yesterdays date let me call
your attention TO sections 1887 and 1883 OF the
Political Code, which are as follows "1637. He
census marshal must include in his report all
children who are absent attending institutions OF
learning and whose parents or guardians are resi-
dents of the district; he must also include as
suS children the children of Indian parents who
ing In the tribal relation: he must also include all
orphan children absent from the district in orphan
asylums whose guardians reside in the district
and every half orphan absent in asylums whose
surviving parent guardian resides in the ais
trict; he must also include all natve-born Chinese
children 1888 He must not include in his report
children who are attending institutions OF learn
ing or such benevolent Institutions as deaf and
dumb, blind and orphan asylums in his district
whose parents guardians do not reside therein"
Judge from the wording of these sections that
half orphans in the various orphan asvIums of san
francisco. whose (remaining) parents reside in
said City. have been enumerated by your census
marshals ana are entitled to enter your public
schools In the case of whole orphans or saban-
doned" children, it seems to me it would be
proper construction of the law to consider the
dians of such children for educational purposes,
and that they be enumerated as census children in
your City, and therefore entitled to all the privi
leges of the public schools of said City.
In the case OF half orphans, whose (rema1ni ng)
these children are enumerated elsewhere such
children could. however, be admitted to your
SCHOOLS on the condition mentioned In subdi Wis ion
fifteenth, section 1917, which is as follows:
"Section 1917. The powers and duties of trustees
OF school districts and boards Of education in cities
are as follows: Fifteenth-To permit children from
other districts to attend the schools of their dis
trict only upon the consent of the trustees of the
district In which such chill iren reside: provided
that should the trustees of the district in which
children whose parents or guardians desire them
to attend in other districts reside refuse to grant
their consent the parents guardians of such
children may appeal to the County Superintendent
and his decision shall beiinal."
The cities OF Sacramen o ana Los Angeles follow
the plan here Indicated and, as a matter of fact
the children in non-sectarian and trotesta Mt
orphan asylums attend the public schools ana are
taught by public school teachers. In Los Angeles
they attend the public schools in proximity to the
asylum. In Sacramento the school buildings are
l believe, on the asylum grounds and, perhaps
pelong 10 ths asylum; but the teachers engaged
ana paid by the city. So far as l know the chill
dren In the Catholic asylums taught by private
teachers. Very respectfully,

THE PHILOSOPHY OF PROTECTION

The declaration of the Republican Con-
vention at Sacramento In favor of such
protection to American industries as shall
remove them from beyond the hurtful in-
fluence of foreign competition voices the
philosophy of true political economy. 1t
declares for protection in the fullest and
deepest meaning of the word. 1t does not
make manufacturing enterprises the CEN
ter of all efforts, leaving other industries
to participate in the overflow of the good
that come direct to mill ana factory, but
purposes to have all industries receive
their full share of protection direct and on
their own merits.
The Sacramento declaration contem-
plates comprehensive reciprocal relations
between all the industries of the country
upon the broad and substantial basis of
mutual interests and oneness of ultimate
beneht. 1t means that in the whole range
of employment and employments' prod
ucts, from the most obscure day laborer to
the most gigantic industrial plant, there
shall not be left single individual or in
terest unprotected. This is the solution
of the whole problem of protection, and
the country will show wisdom if it accepts
it and makes it the chief stone of the cor
ner of the Nation.
The science of government teaches self
ishness as between nations. Not that self
ishness which is born of envy and greed,
but of that which holds to the we'll
grounded doctrine of self-preservation first,
and then the reaching out to help broaden
the avenues OF the going and coming of
others. Civilization owes its progress to
the practical application of just such prin-
ciples, and in declaring itself in favor of
protection that protects from the lowest to
the highest active factor in the Nations
work the Republican party of California
teaches the highest and truest philosophy
of economics and lays down the principles
of government that not only tend to the
greater accumulation of wealth. but to the
advancement of the people along all lines
that make for the loftiest and worthiest
civilization.

START THE WORK.

The general satisfaction among Republi-
cans over the work accomplished by the
Sacramento convention has generated a
spirit of confidence in the ranks of the
party that ought to be made use of at once
in effecting complete organization for
the campaign. AT present there is har-
mony everywhere and sanguine feeling
that amounts to an enthusiasm for Repub-
lican success. This will be an effective aid
to local leaders in getting campaign clubs
and leagues recruited for the coming con-
test and the opportunity should not be
neglected in any county in the State.
1t is true the time is vet distant before
the actual opening of the campaign will
take place. The mass-meetings and the
torchlight professions will not be called
for until late in the summer. 1t is never
theless none too early to set about the task
OF performing the preliminary work and
getting the loyal members of the party
into position where they can render the
most effective service. Il would be good
stroke of politics for the party in Califor-
MIA to show itself already fairly well or
ganized where the ratification meetings are
held after the Presidential nomination in
June, and if this is to be done the work of
organizing must, of course, be undertaken
without delay.
One OF the most important parts of the
organizing work will be that of enlisting
the young men of the State in the ranks
of the grand old party. 1t is estimated
that 100000 young Americans will cast
their first Presidential vote this fall. The
Republican party, by its watchwords,
ttpafrinfiepo ror0tanfinn an6 r0cTarifNy ~
can readily claim for itself the allegiance
of these young men in every State in the
Union, and particularly can it do SO in
California, where patriotism is so ardent,
protection so necessary to industry and
prosperity in all lines OF business so essen
tial to that rapid development of our re-
sources which will give California its right
ful rank among the great States of the
Republic.
The feeling among the people of the
State at this time is most propitious to the
successful performance of the work OF
adding new recruits to the party ranks.
Democracy and Populism are completely
demoralized. They have neither of them
either platform or candidate to which
| they can invite the support of young
men or of Independent voters. The gen.
eral public is naturally inclined to listen
TO Republican arguments now. When the
heat and excitement of the actual cam
paign has disturbed the minds of men it
viii be much more difficult to make con-
verts than at present. when the voice of
reason is heard without prejudice or
passion. This, therefore, is the time to
begin the campaign. Start the work at

RESTRICTING IMMIGRATION.

In demanding the enactment of National
legislation that will prevent the landing
OF otoblectionable foreigners upon our shores,
the Republican party of California is sus-
tanned by every political economist OF this
country. Foreigners who come here for
the purpose of bettering their condition.

cerely with our institutions. are always
most welcome. Indeed, such immigrants
are cordially invited to come by the Repub-
lican party everywhere. Such acquisitions
to the country's numerical and industrial
strength are desired. Whether they be
farmers, merchants, mechanics or labor
ers, there Is always unobstructed oppor-
tunity, so far as the good wishes of our
people go, for them to build homes for
themselves. They are desirable element

1.-THE SUNDAY GALL"

The splendid work being done by the
Mark Hopkins Institute of Art and other
institutions for the education of young
artists is deserving of all consideration,
but this should not make US forget that
San Francisco had already furnished q
number of conspicuous names TO the roll
of artistic fame before these agencies came
into existence. The purpose of a highly
interesting article in to-morrow's CALL is
to name the distinguished artists that
San Francisco has produced and give an
outline of their achievements.
A description of a remarkable curiosity
shop in San Francisco and the strange his
tory of its creator will bring to the general
notice a unique character with which
most "old-timers'' are familiar. The col
lection bears an intimate relation to the
early history of California.
One of the most interesting features will
be the extraordinary history of the fruit
less effort recently made TO bring about
the release of a well-known Californian
from an insane asylum where he has been
confined for years. 1t is one of the most
dramatic and pathetic chapters in the his.
tory of the State.
miss RUSSELL will have something par.
ticularly useful to say on the subject oi
Equine Ailments" Her contributions to
THE SUNDAY CALL on the horse are re-
garded as specially valuable feature.
In view OF the earnest attention which
has been recently drawn to the subject oi
dockyards in this country. a paper by
Lieutenant w. r. Hamilton, q. S. A., on
European Dockyards" will be found par.
ticularly interesting.
George D. Baird will contribute another
to the series of articles on "The Young
Athlete" This goes to the subject OF diet
and sleep.
The contribution on George Francis
Train in last Sundays issue attracted so
much attention that it has been deemed
advisable to follow it with another original
paper entitled 1.-THE Holding Up of the
German Mail" and detailing dramatic
incident in the career of this remarkable
man.
Bachelor Maids of Monterey is the
title of en- interesting contribution detail
ing the experiences of seven maidens who
set about the task of managing house
without masculine assistance.
W. c. Morrow will present an analytical
comparison of English and American
newspaper methods.
All the regular Sunday departments
will appear in to-morrow's issue, full OF
the latest and best matter that skill can
produce and perseverance discover. These
pay careful attention to the children, So
ciety, fashions, music, drama, science, art,
literature and others.

the less able and comprehensive because
it is clean and wholesome. That the ad-
vent of newspaper aimed distinctively

ceives. Its value as an exponent of Cali

The friends of equal suffrage are everywhere
rejoicing over the fact that the San Francisco
CALL has been wise and just enough to declare
in favor of the proposed eleventh amendment
TO the State constitution of California, to ex.
tend the suffrage to women on equal terms
with men. To THE CALL belongs the distin-

newspaper that has had the courage to give
free expression to this great principle of equal
rights and justice. Let readers of the Home

State may receive it regularly.
