He said that at least one-half the students were with them | and he knew the entire community was. | Students were cautioned to act like ladies | and gentlemen and thus make records at | their new school that would attract atten- | tion to them. The students then took seats in_ the | three large carryalls provided for them. In these vehicles were eighty-two boy | ana_ girls, while twenty more accompa- | nied them on wheels. The people gathered | about gave three cheers for the students. | The carryalls made a tour of the business | streets, the students giving their vells at | intervals. In front of Boss Rea’s office | and the Mercury office these cries were | given with renewed vigor. People turned |0Ul of stores and dwellings and wished the students godspeed in- the fight for right. | "About half an hour was pleasantly | passed in the ride to Santa Clara. The | school song and yell were given over and over. The quiet little town of Santa Clara was awakened by this lively crowd and an_ enthusiastic welcome given the stu- | dents. At the High School were found | about twenty-five pupils from the suburbs | who had preceded them. | Fully a hundred residents of Santa Clara had gathered at thelr school to wel- come the pupils from this city. The stu- dents piled out of the carryalls g tormed the school. They were quic assigned to their rooms by Professor Smith and in a half-hour all were seated and there was no apparent sign of the previous rush. A count showed over 160 pupils in at- tendance against 63 for the last month of the term of last year. Of the 160 fully 120 were former pupils of the San Jose school, and it is expected that within a month the number will reach A number of the students were absent to-day, and are working in the fruit orchar cure money with which to pas transportation to Santa Clara and tuition at the school. At the High School scene was in marked contrast to that at | Santa Clara. Here there was no joyful- ness, and students and teachers went about in a sullen mood. Prineipal Shu- mate sald 210 pupils had registered, of which 9 were new pupils. The enrollment last term was 341. In the senfor class only 34 pupils reported. This is just one-half the number in the same’ class last yvear. Other classes show nearly the same ratio of falling off. The enrollment of the other classes are; Third second year, irst year 24. Last yvear the average number of pupils to a teacher was 50, but this year it will not exceed 30. Principal Shumate claims that the number of pu- 111 be increased. Knowing ones deny nd claim ‘oung people only & in this city were induced to go to the school and register as pupils to-day to_increase the attendance. in this city the | Business men view this exodus of pupils to Santa Clara with alarm. It | means the loss of many thousands of dol- lars yearly. Formerly many families came here to live so that their children could attend the High School, but now these have removed to Santa Clara. The tuition paid to the local High School by non-resident pupils amounted to nearly 3000 last year. This amount will now go to Santa Clara, as will probably_the trade of these students’ familles. Now that the students are in earnest in this strike, the business men are also loud in denouncing “‘Boss” Rea and the City Board of Education. The gang has adopted every means pos- sible to checkmate the students An this affair. The scholars have been called into Rea’s office and coaxed and threat- Injunction proceedings have been | brought against the Santa Clara trustees to impede them in furnishing the school, | and now City Superintendent Russell is about to ald the gang in its work.

David Henderson, pre dent of the school board, sald to-day t | the gang had tried in every way to hin | der the school. The trustees did not fear | the injunction proceedings begun last | | week to enjoin them from using certain school funds to Improve the buildings. | He said that Rea was at the bottom of | the sult. No money had been illegall | usea, and " District “Attorney Herington | and City Attorney Beasley of San Jose had a few months ago rendered such an | opinion. Another trustee sal/d Rea was so thor- | oughly disliked in Santa Clara that| should he put In an appearance there | he would probably be run out. | This strike of the students Is a novel one, and shows what politics will do to wreck a school. iciency is no_longer regarded in the selection of teachers in the city schools, and those with the larg- est political pulls are given the best places. Professor Smith's dismissal was purely for political reasons. A day or | | scheme for the future distinction and edi- CONVENTION . OPENS WITH HIGH MASS Session of the Young Men’s Institute.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 29.—James G. Ma- guire, fusion candidate for Governor, left for San Francisco at 11:50 to-day. He was tined to be a hard-fought one. Although little or nothing was dong to-day beyond organization, to-morrow will bring many surprises to those who are directly in- terested in the appointment of the ruling body of tne institute. The prevailing topic of argument ce ters in the election of the new frnnd pres- ident. Rumor has it that J. Glldea is the man, but this is denied by numerous delegates, who aver that his hope Is a forlorn one and that another man is des- tined to win the position. The convention was opened with the celebration of solemn high mass at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, immediately opposite the headquarters of the Institute on Market street. Promptly at 1 o’clock the entire membership of the In- stitute at San Jose, together with the del- egates from all over the State, met in the convention hall, and, led by Grand Pre; fdent Haskins, marched to the church op- posite. [t was an impressive spectacie, as the little procession, with American flags and the various banners of the In- stitute flying to the breeze, filed Into the sacred edifice to offer up mass and prayer before formally opening the annual con- vention.
