14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1896, . M SCHOOL DIRECTORS 10 GRAND JURORS A Caustic Reply to a Re- cently Sent Com- munication. THE WEBSTER SCHOOL. Public Inquisitors Practically Told to Mind Their Own Business. FIGURES AND FACTS GIVEN. A Modification of Recommend:a!ion_s Asked For in the Final Report. of the Jury. 8ix members of the Board ot Education signed a caustic reply to a recent commu- nication of the Grand Jury yesterday and one that is expected to show the latter body just how the School Directors feel regarding interference in educational mat- ters. Some time ago the project of tear- ing down the Webster Primary School was decided on by a majority in the board and a snecial meeting was called to carry the matter through. At that meeting, before the business for which it was called could be concluded, a communication from the Grand Jury pro- testing against. the proposed destruction was read, the effect being that the board decided to defer the matter for the time being. The reply was as follows: OFFICE BOARD OF EDUCATION SAN FRANCISCO, August 7, 1896. § To the Grand Jury of the City and County of San Fruncisco—GENTLEMEN: On the 31st_ of July a communication from your honorable body was forwarded to the Board of Educa- tion, in which you earnestly protested against the closing oi the Webster Primary School. Although we were fully aware of our right to proceed in the matter without regard to your protest, and though we were not convinced that you were right and we were wrong, we felt that courtesy to a co-ordinate branch of the government demanded that your commu- nication should be treated with respectful consideration. The Grand Juri\; is & body whose recommendation should have weight, and we would not detractfrom its dignity and suthority by ignoring its advice. We, how- ever, feel that we owe it to ourselvesand to the community to briefly state the reasons that actuated us in the contemplated action, &S yOour Summary Proceedinfi!. taken without consulting any of us, or giving us an oppor- tunity of explaining the situation, might be considered a reflection on our discretion, or an intimation that we were irfluenced by motives other than the best interests of the schools. The puildings accommodating the Webster Primary School are situated in the rear of the Lincoln School building. On the south the 1ot abuts against the back yards of a number of small residences on Jessie street. Against the rear of the lot the brick walls of the Par- rott building tower high in the air, completely shutting off the eastern sun. On the north the gisreputabie backs of the offensive lodging- houses and saloons that stretch from the Par- rott builaing to Fifth stre#t present a pano- rama of uglinessand demoralization that no child should be forced to face. The shut-in yard is covered by well-worn planks and the general apoearance is one of dilapidation. There are three shabby buildings, perhaps not worse thau the average of those that the parsi- mony of San Francisco compels us to blush for. The entrance to the lot is through the comparatively narrow passage at_the north and south of the Lincoln School building. More than one Grand Jury bas referred to the | danger of life and limb and has recommended that some other provision be made for the ool. That it is an improper and dangerous location hes been matter of notoriety for many years, and is admitted by all_excepting those interested in maintaining existing conditions. The San Franciseo School Department is for- tunate in having retained the magnificent property on the southeast corner of Market and Fifth strects with 275 feet frontage on each street. Itisthe finest unimproved lot of its size in the City, and the possibilities in way of income ere very great. At present the north 100 feet covered by cheap buildings, all, excepting one, of wood, brings an annual in- come of about $40,000. 11 the 175 by 275 feet now occupied by the Lincoln and the Webster schools could be cleared of buildings and the whole property could be leased for, say fifty vears, enabling the lessees to erect buildings appropriate to the lot and the location, & rental could be received that would largely pey the City’s proportion of the amount re- quired to support our schools, or that if ap- propriated to the erection of school buildings to replace the poor structures that now dis- grace us would soon bring San Francisco to an equal rank with mostof the villages in the Btate. 1t is the duty of the proper authorities to lease this property at the earliest moment consistent with the best interests of the pupils now attending the two schools, and the pro- osed ciosing of the Webster School was the Jrst step in thiat direction. This lot i too valuable to be used as a school site, and at the same time from its location in the heart of business activity is unfit for such use. The Lincoln 8chool must eventually be located elsewhere, and if neceasary a lot most be pur- chased for §, but one school can be proyvided for with half the difficulty of two, and itis therefore evident that if the Webster School can without hardship or injustice be now dis- continued the final step will be much easter. ‘The present enroliment of the Webster School is 7! Of this number 243 live nearer 10 other schools. As they ought to attend these schools in any event they may be left out of the calculation. Within & reasonable radius of the Webster School arz the following vacant classrooms to which its pupils might be sent: Lincoln (excluding 4 in basement), 2; Whit- tier. distant 2700 feet, 3; Harrison, distant 3600 feet,2; Jefferron, distant 4200 feet, 8; Cleveland, 3. Capacity of 18 rooms 900 pupiis. These distances ate from building to build~ ing, and are in excess of the average distance to be traveled, as the greater portion of the pupils live south of the Webster and nearer to the other schools. If, as would appear from the above siatement, the pupils can without hardship be accommodated in these vacant rooms, we submit that on the score of economy alone it is our duty to close the school, since it would effect a saying in salary of about $5000 ayear. he action proposed is such as_any sensible man would follow in his own business, look- ing to economy, and is especially necessary in view of the fact that the Board of Supervisors do not recognize the consiantly increasing necessary ccst of conducting our schools, but confine 1s to an inadequate appropriation. The Finance Committee or the Board of Supervisors recently intimated that it 1s our duty to reduce expenses and assist in lower. ing” the levy by consolidating classes or gchools. Your honorable body has likewise urged economy and care in the disbursement of public funds. While the Board of Education has by the provisions of tiie consolidation act an unques- tioned right to abolish a school without re- gard to the interest of its teachers, dismissing the prineipal or assigning her to the position of & class teacher with a corresponding de- crease of salary, it would not Wllunglg do so. Tn the present instance the principal has suc- cessfully conducted one of our largest schools for many years and is entitled to our con- sideration.” It would be a serious blow to re- mand her to the ranks, and we considered our- selves fortunate in an opportunity to close the school without injury or loss to her. Tt is very rarely that s principal resigns, iving us this privilege, but at present there fs & vacancy through the resignation of Miss Robertson of the Conte Primsg. 1t was pro- pused to transfer this school to Murfhy of the Jefferson, and to assign Miss Manning to the principalship of the Iatter school, but six blocks distant from the Webster. It isa brick builaing in good conaition, containing six- teen class-rooms and a large assembly hall. The yard is sunny and well planked. Itisour belief that Miss Mauning would fill this build- ing and speedily bring the school to an equal rank with the Webster. The resolution direct- ing the transfer ordered the superintendent to do all in his power to build up the school to its full capacity, and to this ena he was di- rected to allow her to retain the fifth grade heretofore sent to a grammar school, snd to ireely grant any applications for attendance from parts of the city outside the distri The proposed action in no manner upon the principal, and in every respect the utmost_vonsideration was shown her. It w: especially provided that, whether the Jeffer- son School should increase to sixteen classes or not, she should suffer no loss in salary. The teachers were also to be fully pirotected, it being provided that until given permanent classes they shouid be placed on the list of unassigned teachers without change of nl-ri. To recapitulate: It was propos to abolisl the Webster School for the reasons: First—That its location and surroundings are dangerous to life, health and morals. Second—That & necessary first step be taken to secure & lnf:) income from property too valuable (and also unfit) for school purposes. Third—That it is not necessary to continue it to properly provide for the children in its neighborhood. Fourth—That it is called for as a necessary measure of economy. Fifth—That it may now be closed without in- juy to principal or teachers. ‘e respectiully ask that you may make such inquiry as you see fit into the facts herein stated, and that in your final report you make such modifications in your recommendations as you find to be just.

A sub-committee for the reception of callers has been appointed by the Woman Suffrage State Central Committee consist- ing of six members, carefully selected as being foremost among the most eloquent and convincing speakers 1n sympathy with the cause. The ladies will be in attend- ance from 1 until 5 o’clock each afternoon on the days respectively assigned to each, and desire particularly to meet conscien- tious voters who may be opposed to woman suffrage. 3 As at present arranged, the committee will be on duty as follows: Mondays, Mrs. John F. Swift; Tuesdays, Mrs. Austin Sperry; Wednesdays, Miss Mary E. Hay, secretary of the State Central Committee: Thursdays, Mrs. A. A. Sargent: Fridays, Mrs. Neliie Holbrook-Blinn; Saturdays, Miss Susan B. Anthony. Among yesterday’s visitors were the Rev. Mr. Brown of Stanford University, Mrs. J. F. Swift, Colonel Charles H. Blinn and Mrs. Blinn. But these are all friends of the cause, welcome indeed, yet in no need of conversion. The ladies at the woman-suffrage bureau want to see anti- suffragists however rabid, and bring them over to the opposite view; but as one of the most charming attaches of the burean asked vesterday: “Where are the anti-suffragists any- how?” DAKLAND'S WATER FRONT The Famous and Important Case Now Before the Supreme Court. Attorneys Argue For and Against the City’s Rizht to Alienate the Property. The Oakland water-front cases are now being heard on appeal by the Supreme Court. Maps and diagrams of all sizes and colors were on exhibition in the court- room all day, and the well-worn history of the now famous case was rehearsed in de- tail. Attorney A. A. Moore, representing the Oakland Water-front Company, gave an able presentment of his side of the case yesterday morning. He contended that the municipality of Oakland had the legal right and power to alienate the water- front lands or any part of them, and held that the deeds and grants so alienating them were undoubtedly valid and suffi- cient. This view was ably combated by Wil- liam R. Davis, attorney for the city of Oakland. He recounted that in 1852, when the municipality of Oakland was incorpo- rated, the line or strip of land between high water mark and the deep water chan- ne!, comprising several thousands of acres, was set apart for common uses. He re- ferred significantly to the Carpentier transfer, calling attention to the circum- stance that two out of the four Trustees who authorized the conveyance were Carpentier’s partners. In very convinec- ing terms he contended that the convey- ance was invalid, the land in question having been irrevocably set apart for pub- lic uses. Ex-Judge Garber in reply will argue this morning.

The Judge Arrives Here With Two Important Witnesses to a Mar- : riage Ceremony. Judge W. Y. Pemberton, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Montana, and a possibility for Governor by a combination of Democrats, Populists and silver men, returned to the Grand yesterday afternoon with his bride. It was only a few weeks ago that the Chief Justice came here on his first visit to this State, although he had lived in Montana since 1863. He was on his way to Southern California. A short time after his departure the news reached this City that Judge Pemberton had been married in Los Angeles. The fact was almost dis- credited by his old friends, who talked it over. And other men from Montana were equally surprised. 'he Judge is now on his way bome to Helena, where he holds court, and he is taking with him charming evidence of the reliability of the meager telegraphic reports. With the newly marred couple is Miss Hoover of Helena. Judge Pemberton will pe remembered as the man who emphatically declared that he “never saw a long-haired fellow with a gun on his hip who wasn’t an infernal coward.”” SAN FRANCISCO ‘‘CALL.”™ BUSINESS OFFICE of the San Francisco CALI~ 710 Market street, open until 12 o'clock every mignt in the year.
