The political pot OF Nevada is not
boiling very ferociously as yet. except
perhaps in the matter OF local town or
city elections. yet people are looking
ahead and eounselhug together as to
the best men to be elected to oil the
various State Offices at the general cleo
ton which takes place in November
next. A nesting Of tho Republican
State Central Committee Is called for
the 10Th instant to arrange prelimina-
ries. and the ball will soon
to roll. Most prominent Of all. as to
State officers Is Governor. The expert
once Of the past few years has shown
that political ~partizanship has not been
allowed to override the selection Of whom
might be considered the bost man for the
Office. or who would stand in for the
best interests OF the State and the pso-
pie at large. Governor Bradley has
filed the position two terms. with honor
to himself and his constituency. He Is
talked Of for a third term. but We be-
love he has too much good sound COM
mo- sense to accept OF even tho nomi-
nation. lie has held the Office long
enough. AMI will give SOM other good
man q chance. lie is not vain-glorious
enough TO think that he has . life lease
or perpetual title to the Office. More
over. tho fully proclaimed aud esiab-
lished platform principle Of his party
will not allow OF his election for q hiri
ier". The Democracy cannot afford to
siultify themselves or their recorded
principles in that respect. AMI his
numerous Republican friends. who
really elected him heretofore. will not
sanction any third term aspirations in
that quarter. Moreover. We wish to re-
spectiully suggest to our Democratic
friends that 1t ia but just and fair that a
Republican Governor should be elected
this time. This We shall insist upon.
The merits Of the other Democratic as
pirants we will not discuss at present.
