On the day of the election, the per-

HAYES ELECTED.

Republicans have now reason to
jubilate. 1t was little blue the
morning after election, but the as
pect has changed since. A dis
match received at this Office at s
o'clock last night says that Chandler
announces Hayes election by one
electoral majority, exclusive of
North Carolina.

SHOULD Tilden be the next Presi-
dent, there is no question that he
would have rs brilliant a Cabinet
as could be got together from his
marty. Tilien is a brilliant man
himself. and il is presumable that
he would tolerate about him none
but the very hes. men. They
wonld belong to the old school OF
politicians, It's true. but they
would in all likelihood include
some Of the hes, minds IN the
country.

Nirht before last an asse mblaee

| Night before last m assemblage Of
enthusiastic friends called upon
Gov. Hayes. He spoke ms follows:
"My friends, assure you l am
obliged for this hearty demons,ra-
ton, but if you will keep quiet for q
moment l will say something to
/ you which. thiaS, it Is my duty
under the circumstances to say |:
While our present advices look favor
able we must remember that a num-
Der Of the States which have been
considered doubtful have a large
territory to hear from aud have no
railroad nor telcgraphic communica-
ton, and It will naturally take some
time To receive returns from them. |
/ therefore take this call as an indica-
ton Of your loyalty To the Republi-
can party and your desire for its sue
cess. Ii later adviccs should change
the result from what it is announced
at present, | assure you l shall fire.
quently recall this visit during the
time | shall yet live among you with
pleasure. l bid you good night"

there is groundwork of local fact,
the imagination may supply some OF
tho elements of attractiveuess. The
delicious paragraph in question had
no such groundwork in the vicinity
of publication of the Burlington
| Hawkeye, aud il was just as truth
ful when applied To American
Ravine as though applied anywhere
| beside.
Within the past few years there
has grown up tendency among the
newspapers to be funny aud facti-
tious. and some of them have suc-
cecd.d admirably in the first.
Others, in trying to initiate, have
failed just as admirably. Where
there is no genius there can be no
b,illancc in attempts to build up
from no Foundation. The person
who does the locals for this paper,
like his friend of The Enterprise.
never branches off into the uncertain
realms Of imaginative writing. He
is cGttent to rely on facts, with such
embellishments of language as limit
ed ability will allow. Nor does he
desire to fitch the renown of others
and appropriate it to himself. A
strict sense of propriety, as well AS
the lack of any burning desire to
be regarded as smart, would forbid
such an act. Furthermore, we re-
gard lie as to brief and the field vt
literature too bread 20 waste much
time in reading the now somewhat
sserco;ypea style of paragtaphic iun
as published in the newspapers most
noted for ii. Aud although The
Free Press is constantly a, our dis
posal, the reader seldom sees any
thing quoted from 1t in TnE TINES.
Did We admire such reading or
such writing. the first column OF the
Enterprise would he scanned so
closely tina, no blundcr like the one
under notice could occur.
Blu, over and above all these con-
sidera,ions towers the one that We
regard newspaper buccaneers as
among the wors. OF the disreput-
able characters; who. incompetent
for any good performances OF their
own. would We, have the public to
believe that they are. Being
rather attentive reader OF The
Graphic, Barper's. The Tribune and
some other leading Eastern pap=rs.
we might occasionally call The En-
terprise to account for remarkable
coincidence between it's columns
and theirs. The coincidence some
times goes se far that paragraphs
are literally identical. This never
occurs in the local department OF

The people Of Nevada. In the re
cent nominations for oflice, paid the
journalistic profession compliment
thar the press should duly appreciate.

that some of the quill-drivers were

til. list rs a candidate for Prcsiden-
tial Elector. twas appropriate that
he should do 50, because he stands at
the head of the profession in this
State. He was elected, OF course.
Professor Frank Stewart, Geo. W.
Cassidy, Harry Mighels, j. Alexan-
der, A. Skiliman and T. +. Picotte
were candidates for the Legislature.
All of them are Journalists. Mr..
Sears, of The Elko Independent, was
candidate fo- Superintendent of
Public Schools. We judge from his
paper that he would make an excel
lent superintendent. He ought to be
just lazy enough to visit the
schools once in year without
getting excited. he, like Mr.. Dag
ge,t, is distinguished in his line of
business. The opposite qualities dis
t;nguishes them, however. Mr.. Sears
will never induce sosteniag OF the
brain Nv any work that he may per
form ON his paper. We hope he has
been elected. Mr.. Picotte was defeat
ed. He had the misfortune to bc NOM
mated by the wrong convention.
Newspaper people are never good
active politicians. Had Mr.. Picnt'e
been, he might have secured the
uomina;ion from the dominant party.
Mr.. Mighels was elected, of course.
He mus. have ran ahead OF his
ticket In ormsby. He will be
one of the hes. men in the
Legislature. as he is one of the best
writers on the coast Mr.. SSillman,
we believe, WAS elected. We are
glad that he was. \ person who
lives in Hamilton and Publishes as

ing these lines We do not know
whether Professor Stewart Is elected
or not. If he embraced the OPP
posite politics, we should say We
hopcd he wss. He is most com
pcten, person to be in the Legislature.
Mr.. Alexander, with that modesty
which eharsicterizes the profession
throughout, positively aud persis-
.easly refused To be candidate.
The people, approaching his worth,
assisted just as strungly. How he
came oat of the contes, we don't
know. Mr.. Cassidy was elected by
a mi nifty OF Ave. The nice dis
elimination and acute sense o! pro-
prie;y manifested by the conven-
tons in nominating these men, is
hopeful sign. |, indicates time in
the future when the standard Of Off

N0TE.-lA the Nineteenth Dlatrtct WILLIAM II.
hEDENsos, Independent. ran against SAMUEL y
MARSHALL, regular Democrat nnd GREEN L.

1t will bo Reon, therefore, that Illinois is
not Republican State beyond every con-
tingency. It il not Republican Stato be-
yond the contingency of tho Opposition be-
ing practically united, and even though they
should not bo united on Presidential ticket
it is quite conceivable TINT they may DO
united Oh State ticket, and also on their
Legislative ticket. We lost tho last Legisla-
ture in that way, and VIC may easily lose tho
no1t ono by failing to make the best possible
nomination at Cincinnnti. The German vote
Of the State has been in state of scmi-
revolt for three or four yenrs, md the only
nomination 1iko1y to bring it into full accord
with tho Republican party Is that Of BEN
JAM1N Fl. Dn1s1ow. The Independents, :"
SO called, cast II, $50 votes in 1874 for their
candidate for State Treasurer. They repro-
sent the prevailing dissatisfaction with par
tics and party management, and the mAn
who cnn bring hack tho largest number Of
their votes is unquestionably BENJAMIN II

men who go to Cincinnati, and request them
to give us ticket that wo can onco moro
carry tho State with.
