40 BE NOMINATED By ACCLA-
NATION.

The Democratic nomination for the
Governorshlp is now disposed of. l..
il Bradley, the peoples choice, be-
cause be is the defender of their rights,
will, if he lives. be nominated by &C.
clamation at Carson City on the 23rd of
September. SO far he has swept every
thing before him at the primaries, and
it is doubtful if there will be any oppo-
sition to him in the counties where
delegates are yet to be elected. Storey
county decided the contest in his favor
by the election OF a majority of Bradley
men to choose delegates to the State
Convention and ensuring him the entire
Delegations 30 votes--from that county.
The Convention will be composed of
136 members, and it will require 50
votes 10 nominate Bradley is already
certain of more than that number, and
Us his nomination Is ensured, no fight
will bs made against him in Eureka
where delegates are to be elected
week from morrow.
The Gogernorship being disposed of
this early III the fight, the party will
now have time to turn its attention to
selecting candidates for other State Of
fees and for Congress. and if it selects
men as worthy the confidence of the
people for those positions as Bradley is
for Governor, It's ticket will be irwin
chile at the polls in November.
