THE Philadelphia Telegraph, Re
publican paper, occupies much space in
its editorial column with very pausi- !
BILE article setting forth reasons for be-
lieving that the chances Of the nomina-
ton OF both Mr.. Tilden aud Gen. Grant
we're involved in the New York cleo
tion. The Telegraph is so plain and EN-
phatic on the subject that we copy
small extract from it that the readers Of
the GAZETTE may see for themselves
and draw their own conclusions. or
course that paper has superior facilities
for learning the motives Of the Republi
can campaign managers and orators. 1t
will be seen that it maintains that the
Republicans cannot EJECT President
without the votes of New York 1t
says:
"The result is now known, and if
there is any one thing more distinctly
than another settled by it, il is that
neither Mr.. Tilden nor General Grant
can be regarded as highly desirable
candidates.
II 1t be admitted, as it must be, that a
Republican President cannot be elected
without the vote of New York, not more
true than that General Grant was de-
fested by 1t. The success of Mr.. Cor
nell does not prove that New y ork is
Republican; 1t only proves that, owing
TO . factional fight of the Democrats
over q single candidate opposed to him,
he has become Governor. But the cleo
ton of the entire remainder of the
Democratic ticket proves that New Y ork
was on Tuesday last thoroughly Demo
cratic State, and indicates that it will be
even more so next November, when nc
quarrel between the leaders will lesser
the Democratic majority. 1t was moi
the Republicans who elected Mr.. Cor
nell, but John Kelly aud TammanN
Hall; this is proved coDclusively by th,
election OF Mr.. Potter as Lieutenant
Governor and all the rest Of the Demo
cratic State ticket. The result is cis
astrous enough, but there is Who'll
year in which to work to reverse it an
just as it has proved that it will not d
for the Democrats to nominate Mr.. Ii
den, SO has it proved that it will not d
for the Republicans to nominate Gener
Grant, whose candidacy was forced int
the New York compaign by Messr
ConkliDg, Sherman, and Evarls."
In discussing this matter the Ne
York Herald Of to-day says:
"The great question for the Dem
cratic party in its National Conyenlie
next spring will be, what candidate h

TEXT BOOKS.

There are at present in Carson the agents
of six different publishing houses which are
| engaged in making text books for schools,
| all anxious to secure the adoption, by the
State Board of Education, of their various
publications. The representatives of the
different houses are Charles E. Bancroft, OF
Bancroft & Co., San Francisco, California
II. FL. Boyce, of the McGufy series, Cincin-
natl James 7. White, with Appleton & Co.
ID. F. Adams, of A. S. Barnes l. Co. 0. s..
Cook, of Scribners Publishing house, and
J. Torky, of Taintor, Merrill & Go. OF
course the duties Of the Board in wrestling
with selection are anything but agreeable.
During the past few years there has been a
ing houses of the United States and as a
result the schools have resped the benefits in
the shape of we'll printed and cheap books.
The binding, letter press and engraving of
these works are astonshingly good compared
with the publications Of twenty years ago.
OF course, in such q multiplicity of works,
there is to be found considerable trash, and
frequently good binding, fine press work and
artistic illustration, hide faults of compilation
or imperfect methods OF instruction. The
Board cannot be to careful in it's selection of
a series of text books, which by law will be
used in the State during the next four years
There is such thing as q school book ring in
existence and the agents of publishing houses
have used questionable methods i'll forcing
their wares upon Boards of Education in diff
ferent States. There are instances on record
where actual bribery has been resorted to to
secure the adoption of trashy publications at
prices which have been an imposition upon the
pupils using them, and disastrous to the edu-
cational interests of the States in which the
books were adopted. As far as known no
suspicion attaches itself to the skirts of the
present Board of Education in Nevada, but
there has been considerable growing over the
book used in times past and COLLISION has been
charged in many instances between book sell
ers and Superintendents of Public Schools.
The Board should do it's work without fear or
favor and settle the question of text books
for this State in such way that there will be
no reason for general discomfort.
