THE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION. THURSDAY....... .ss OLIDAY week is given over to great activity in the State H University at Berkeley, by the meeting there of the State Teachers’ Association in its thirty-ninth annual session, and the concurrent assemblage of the State Farmers’ Institute, the State Library Association, the School Board convention and a section of the Geological Society of America. Valuable and interesting papers will be read and discussed, upon a great variety of subjects, per- taining to the material-welfare of our people and their educational interests. The promoters of agricultural education will improve the oc- casion by a forcible showing in favor of introducing agriculture into the um of the public schools. About’this there is a great i ion. If such education attempt to go further than ry of the soil, plant life and growth and diseases and ene- ill add to the already topheavy course of study a burden for teachers and students. There is no question, however, ch that is now in the curriculum can with advantage out to be replaced by an extension of nature study into the ulture proper, and its projection into forestry as an nt collateral. think that a study of agriculture, if finally adopted, should ie selective and not compulsory.

This is supposed to be in the interest of the e of the Sunset district. But the park belongs to all the people. is incompatible with the idea and purpose of parks that ordinary ~ets and railroads shall be run through them. If the Sunset dis- | t is entitled”to a purely commercial facility in the park, all of | s borders have the same right and its enforcement means the dis-| nce of the park. Like a great many other defacing and despoiling propositions, this proposed vandalism impinges upon public ownership. The city to take over the Geary-street road. The city can send that road across the park. It can also turn the park into a cow pasture if it| choose, or rent it to timber cutters and sell the stumpage. It can| do a lot of things that ought not to be done, in the name of public | DDE3 ownership, unless the courts can successfully arrest its spoliations, | which remains to bé seen when the proposition becomes official. Since the park was developed all street roads have been prop- ! erly excluded from it, as they are excluded from parks in every city. he beautiful and symmetrical development of a park is impossible under any other conditions. The new Board of Supervisors will do itself credit by extending our system of parks, excluding from them ordinary streets and railroads, and giving the people more such breathing and pleasure places, rather than abridging what we have in Golden Gate, the finest park in theé world. Trence to the homely philosophy of its founder, Ben Franklin. | Noting the rapid progress of socialism in cities and its slow | headway in the country, the Post says: “To the man who lives in | a great city and looks at the things around him, it must often appear | that the ideals expressed in the constitution have utterly lost. their force, and that the population is divided into classes whose interests are sharply antagonistic. But if he will go into the country, par- ticularly into the great’ grain raising country -of the Middie West, he will find democracy pretty triumphant still, sitting on a load of | corn and innocent of any idea that John, the banker, is a plutocrat, or Hank and Tom, hired men, proletarians who ought to hate him. Farmer, banker and HKired men go to the same wedding and the same funeral.” gl It was Jefferson’s belief that the mainstay and support of our free institutions would be found always in the rural population, living on and from the lznd. He regarded cities with aversion, and called them the “cloaca,” the sewers of the country. Though money flows to great cities, wealth remains and increases in the rural dis- tricts. The Secretary of Agriculture estimates that the daily in- crease in the value of farms for the last five years has been $7,- 400,000. That wealth, won by hard work, in the face of wind and weather, is the real bulwark of democracy. Socialism may divide the personal estate, consisting of money in the cities, but the real estate, the farms of the country, will not be in the pool. em———————— AGAINST SOCIALISM.
