The only gentlemen we hear spoken
of for Congressman on the Republican
side, says the Carson Tribune, are Tom
Wren, the honest man of Eureka
county, and Col. Billy Wood, of Storey
county. Counselor Deal, of Storey
county, is spoken of as the Demo-
cratic candidate. A good and straight
up-and-up gentleman is Mr.. Deal.
and were he on the other side of the
fence, would make it very warm for
any other man. Trot out your best
men, Messrs. Republicans, for they
are needed, we assure you.
The Board of Prison Commissioners,
consisting of Secretary of State Minor
and Attorney General Kittrell, re-
marks the Reno Journal of the 10th,
came down from Carson yesterday to
receive the work on the Reno prison.
They were accompanied by Warden
Hyman, and together visited the pris-
on and inspected the work. Their OFF,
cial action is considered favorable for
receiving the work.
Dick Rising, says the Carson Tri-
bune, appears to have the inside track
in his own county for the nomination,
though why he wants it is nor than
we can tell. He has been upheld by
the Storey county people for his pres
ent position, which is as remunerative
as the one he seeks. He car doubtless
be reelected to hat office, but we
think not to the Supreme bench.
We see by the Wallapai Enterprise
of July 9th that Caldwell Wright an
nounces himself as again a candidate
for County Recorder of Mohave our
ty. MIR. Wright is we'll known in
Idaho, White Pine and Phoebe.
Wednesdays Reno Journal says:
The ranchers on the meadows, out in
Steamboat and Washoe valleys, and
generally throughout the county, are
very busy cutting hay. The crop is
good one, and the yield this year will
be larger than ever; all OF which Is
encouraging.

SHOULD PAss.--There Is q bill now
pending in Congress which should in
all reason become a law. 1t provides
for the election OF Governor, Secretary,
Treasurer, Auditor and Superintendent
OF Schunls In the several Territories
by the people directly interested.
There is no good reason why the peo-
pie of the Territories should not be
allowed to choose their own officers,
instead of having them appointed by
the President, and, as is always the
case, imported from other States.

THE BLOODY SHIRT TO BE
WAVED AGAIN.

Evidences multiply that the leaders
Of the Republican party will make a
desperate attempt to turn attention
from the oorruptions and extrava.
gances Of their administration by re-
viving stories of bloodshed, outrage
and murder in the South. When the
carpet-bag Governor of Mississippi,
Amss, was forced to resign in order to
escape impeachment for high crimes
and misdemeanors, he went to Wash
ington and entered into a conspiracy
with Morton. Logan & Co. to set the
Southern outrage mill to going again
Is . means for narrowing up sectional
prejudices, and under cover of which
troops could be sent into that and other
States to 0verawe the people and Sc
cure bayonet victories at the polls. A
committee of the Senate was sent to
Mississippi to "investigats," in the
darkness of secrecy" and it is said
that tales of blood" were poured into
their ears by carpet-bag and scalawag
witnesses trained for the purpose, until
some Of the more unsopbisticated
members actually imagined them
selves In the Skeleton clutch" of hor-
rid Kluklux clans bent on murders
most foul. No doubt the country will
be treated to . report on the subject
that will curdle the blood in the veins
of children, old maids and curb-stone
politicians. The bloody shirt is to be
dipped anew and waved with vigor
from every stump in the land. Ben.
Butler will tread the boards again clad
In Kuklux armor, and more old hats
perforated with bullet holes will be
exhibited, but we do not believe the
people CAT, be fooled and deceived by
such miserable devices again. The
same humbug don't often succeed
moro than once, and the fact that the
Republican fuglers are to trot this one
out again indicates a wonderful pow
erty Of material.

for the reason that New York is to be
the principal battle-ground of sthe

1880. 1t has been the usual practice to
allow the candidate to control the or
g~anization of the committee in order
that it might work in harmony with
him and in accordance with his wishes,
but in this instance the rule was over
ridden. The Washington correspond

ny MOSS AGATE,

Shall we cultivate an art taste among
us2 is q question agitated of late years
by the many friends of progress, and
schools of design, art academies and
associations have sprung up III many
places as answers, where results rival
ing even those of the old masters, have
been produced.
The Importance of drawing AS means
of the mental development, has hither
to been but little understood 1t has
been regarded merely as an accomplish
ment, and as of but little practical
value. But oflatc years it is assuming
its true position, and, in all prominent
institutions is taught, not as a means by
which the pupil may make a picture, but
as one of the chief instruments by
which to develop the preceptive iacul-
ties, as well as those of the imagination
and the reason; and also develops the
powers of perception and imagination
combined, educating, therefore, the i'm
portant faculty, conception.
Taste, also, is cultivated by this inn
portant branch of education. The eye
is trained until it becomes conscious of
true order, thus leading to the observ-
ancc of any distortion either in social or
natural life
1t has been truly said that Drawing
is a language, expressed by straight and
curved lines. The mind conceivcs
what its servant, the hand executes;
and, as all education should be based on
nature, how important that the hand
should he trained, from childhood, to
express, cmbody, and preserve the ideas
of the mind, by transmitting them to
paper in all their minutiw. This art
then, as an aid to science, is indispens-
able,
What wide fields for enjoyment are
opened to the child, who, in early edu-
cation, is taught to observe, and with
ready pencil, record those observations.
The wonders of nature, from the blade
of grass, or the simple flower, to the va
rious crvstalized forms of the
snowhakes, of ice, hail dew, etc,
and of the geological world
assume new interest, and are better UNI
delstood; for, to understand, he must
represent, ard to represent requires mi
mute examination and accurate reason
ing.
This art, then, should be begun as
early as possible, and pupils should b'
taught not merely to copy without rea
son or rule what Others have produced
but to understand and apply the tru
laws of perspective as well as OF ana
, lytical and inventive drawing,
This can be done in all schools at bu
trihing expense, by the method OF free

work at the board, so that fifty pupils
following her explanations and direC
tons, can be taught at one lesson a
! easily as half dozen,
