MISS ALLEN REPLIES.
Says Mr.. Forbes is Mis-
taken as to Hoboken's
Position.
III Garden street.

aoboken, Dec. q, 1893.
To the Editor of 1.-THE Jersey City News:
Hon. w. f. Forbes Of Hoboken, a member
of the State Board of Education. is re-
ported to have said, at a meeting OF
boards of education held at Trenton yes
to-day, that he had received a communica-
ton from me regarding Senate Bill 1877
which States that even teachers had not
had time to properly digest it," and that
There could be little in this argument, as
many OF the teachers found Time TO do
outside work, and they could quite read
il Interested. The teachers Of Hoboken''
are somewhat divided over the law, but
q majority Of them are willing to accept
anything reasonable" In a letter dated
ddea Of my few words IS fairly we'll re-
ported" These statements are. SO mis-
leading and have been so widely circu-
Hated that they require a reply.
The clause in my letter, referred TO by
MFR. Forbes. reads as follows: Senate 1877
IS a volume Of IS pages embracing the en-
simple matter for ever the Initiated to
comprehend the full intent of the measure
even after careful study"
As Mr.. Forbes had a copy Of my letter,
I cannot understand the misleading inter-
probation ne placed upon it. l ~reassert
that it is a difficult matter even for those
with some experience In such matters to
fully comprehend this voluminous and
complicated measure even after careful
study For this assertion I haye the au-
thorfty of q number Of lawyers who have
been examining 1s7. To give one iIlustra-
tion of the cornplexity of the bill, and
the very great difficulty persons mex
perienced IN law will awe in arriving at
Ats full meaning. let me say that pro-
visions affecting the appointment. dismiss
sal, promotion. transfer, suspension and
trial Of principals and teachers. and the
granting of certificates are to be ound
in sections 10. II, "a, IS, IS, 10, n, ia, 115
and 116 OF articles 2. 4, 6 and 5. There
doubtless are other sections in the bill
which directly concern teachers, but these
references are sufficient to show that 1t
is not a simple matter to discover the
full intent of the law as regards teachers.
Such distribution may be the approved
