Vice-Presioent Douty of the Water
Front Company says he is no more
anxious for compromise or the cessation
of litigation III the water front matter
than are the attorneys for the city of Oak
land. This morning the following letter
from him was received by President
Taylor OF the Oakland Board of Trade:
James p TAILOR. Esq, President Oakland
Board OF Trdde-SIR: l see in The daily papers
cons con EZRA pie comment upon your letter TO
this company, dated November 90 and my
reply thereto of Odd inst. 1t is evident that
this correspondence is misunderstood. l did
not see in your letter, neither did | express
nor imply in my answer, any reference to O
compromise or cessation of existing litigation.
On the contrary, We desire a speedy and final
determination of the legal status of our hold
lngs. 1 am informed by our attorneys that
the recent State Supreme Court decision leaves
only few formal Ties 10 be carried out before
such final determination is reached.
There must be a re trial in the Superior Court
and decision, the lines of which have been
carefully laid down in the Supreme Court de-
cision. Then would come appeal to the
State Supreme Court but complete was its
recent decision that there seems scarcely a
possibility OF any grounds for such appeal.
Alter such an appeal there can only be refer
ence of the matter 10 the Federal courts but
am informed and FULLY believe that there is no
Federal point involved In this controversy.
iHese steps may take some Time Dut so well
are we satisfied rs to the result that instead of
desiring any cessation of the litigation we are
anxious to hasten its competition by every
possible means.
For these reasons and for the benefit of the
property, we offer to sell it to purchasers in
suitable subdivisions upon such terms and.
conditions as will be acceptable to enter

RIDICULE FOR
THE REGENTS
The University Magazine
Strongly Denounces
Their Policy.
More Instructors and More
Eooks the Most Press
ing Needs.
The Law College Declared to Be at
Present a Second Grade
Institution.

BERKELEY, Dec. 1.-The University
of California Magazine, which is one of
the most conservative of college publica-
lions and has on its editorial staff as
counselors Professors Bacon and Jones,
has attacked vigorously he policy of the
university regents in devoting the avail
Bile funds to the erection of great build
lngs rather than to an increase in the
force OF instructors and fellows and build
ing up the library.
Editor Overstreet voices his sentiments
in the following vigorous language:
In the midst of the gloom of financial
stringency we felt-"If only we had funds,
funds! What a tu ure for the university!'
Now ct last we have funds pubic aud private
and when we turn 10 the executors of our
welfare with confident hope that now the pre-
eminence OF our university will be only a
matter OF time, what do we behold? The out
Inning OF stupendous, colossal plan for
new buildingsi AS if that were the one thing
neediul for the realization of a university's
endsl
But in the University Of California there is
hardly technical or scientific depar tine n [
that has adequate facilities for graduate re-
search work. And the library-the very navel
OF university acuvity-is itself seriously mad
equate Tor any kind OF graduate Inves III alton.
The regents have eked out merest $4,000 for
1t. Behold q marvel
We have mentioned above the bRrest neces-
sites of university equipment. There are
dozens of others that demand recognition.
The undergraduate classes are grossly over
crowded, and in consequence there is none of
the personal contact that should exist be-
tween student and instructor.
instruction tends more and more away from
the ind vidual; We might well become a
huge lecture bureau and be done with IT,.
Again. more meni Our heads of departments
should be freed from much of the routine of
the undergraduate work aud be given time
for original research-the kind of work tina [
makes fame for a university. Again, more
men! We should have more graduate fellow
ships, travelling teilowship--the surest ince H.
tive to good work-that our men may not be
compelled to go begging to Harvard or Johns
Hopkins or Yale because there is no
help at home. Across the bay is law COL
lege that is a part of the University OF Cali
fornia. What is tiff we would te / the naked
truth-but a second-grade institution that we
| should be ashamed to mention on the same
page with Columbia Harvard Law School
And what does il need but funds sufficient to
meet its oem ands for an adequate teaching
force.
As long as these demands are unsatisfed-
and they are but a few of a host-it Is ridlcu-
lous to think that all we need in order to at
tain 10 the plane of university is magnif-
cent architectural creation. What are we
building Tor ourselves but great she'll of a
university in which our little hali-grown
spirit Will rattle about-perhaps listen with
