If We had had our choice, Genera
Marlette would have been placed upon
the ticket for Surveyor General. So fa'
as any one man may rightfully lay claim
to the tenure of any office, be had a
right to be retained in the position
which he has so long and ably filled.
But the representatives Of the party
called for "new deal" and Captain
Day may rest assured of the hearty sup
port of the Union party at the polls. SO
far as capabilily aud integrity to party

and efforts of his party.
Equal in wisdom with the course of
the Convention in regard to its nonIina
ton for Congressman, and p-omp;ed by
| The prevailing sentiment Of feaity to The
best interests of the party, is the noun
nation for Supreme Judge for the long
term, of the Hon. B. c. Whitman of
Storey county. 1t is hardly necessary
TO mention the fact that we lent our in
dividual support to that upright, honest.
able jurist, the Hon H. 0. Beatty. We
admired his course upon the bench and
felt it 10 be for the best interests of the
State that he should be re elected and
while this feeling involved no personal
positive and decided. But the sense O.
the majority being upon the side Of
third party, and be one of the mos
highly esteemed and popular citizens of
the State, and, withal, gentleman of
lperior attachments, unduubted Loyalty
and thorough culture, we, with Others
of Judge Beatty's friends, could not bur
yield hearty acquiescence TO The strong
pressure which, at as lave an hour MS
the night previous to the assembling of
the Convention, was brought to bear il
behalf of Nj. Whitman. We cannot !
withhold the concession that bis name |

The only contest which ELECTED any
strong rivalry in the Convention was
over the nomination of Supreme judy
to be in favor of the strong personal
of our distinguished fellow
townsman, the Hon. J. Nicely Johnson.
The nomination OF no one man Of the
FIVE or six gentlemen whose names were
before the Convention could have given
more general satisfaction to the friends
of the unlucky ones and the party a.
large.
The electoral ticket is a splendid one.
Hon. c. E. belong, it is needless TO re
peat, will, by leading activity and vigor

lander county, one of the fighters in
he late war, will rally the party to The
tandard of Grant aud CoIftx in the
: Great East :" and Senator Haines, of .
Douglas, will give material help to the
ause in the "cow counties" The
liernates, ex Lieut.. Gov. Crosnan, OF /
,smeralds county, Hon. Thomas Wells
f Ormsby, and Hon. Frank H Kennedy
f Lyon, are gentlemen each enjoying
luch popularity throughout the range '
f their wide acquaintance and will adj r
1uch to the strength of the ticket.
We cannot commend too highly the :,
election by the Storey delegation of il
[r. belong as one of the State Central !,
ommittee; and we congratulate tha, d
ommittee and the party upon the re u
lection of Mr.. belong to the position I

We believe that the party is delighted "
