THE EIGHTH OF JANUARY.

We all change as the times change. Time
was when not to celebrate "O.d ii cksny','
victory over Lord P"ckenham was t" be- gnI- y
of a most unpardonable piece OF neglect. Now,
since a great contest worthy of the name "f
War has been passed thr"ngh by our people,
the lesser struggles of the past have lost some
of their glamour, and the sheen {" their q" y
has grown dim. And yet General jackson
was a fierce and efficient warrior, as he "as a
firm, aye, even a tyranical civil leader. N"
man has ever left greater impress upon his
time, (within a somewhat limited hed), than
Andrew Jackson His name will no doubt
he mentioned with respect in the l. gislarure
to day. We have, already, to" many "F"r-
gotten Worthless" and the Annive "sary of the
Battle of New Orleans should be kept green
within our memories.

GOVERNOR KINkEADS INAUGURAL.

We present our readers, this morning, with
copy of Governor kinkeads inaugural 1t
is concise, coyent, decided of tone upon GER
tain important questions, and admirably
brief. The stand taken by him concerning
the taxation of railroads is greatly to be com
mended. His designation of mining for the
precious metals as our paramount interest, Is
in excellent time and temper-for such it is,
and as such it has been recognized by our Su-
preme Court. The recommendation that
freights and fares be subjected to modtica-
ton by statute would be stronger, we think
if he had not singled out the Central Pacific
Beyond any question the fragrant abuses con-
stantly perpetrated by that company should
be corrected but we cannot see how an
etfectual statute can be framed to affect that
line aud not affect others We think it is
like to be shown before the session is over
that some of the charges maintained by local
roads are excessive and grievous to be borne.
The spirit of the message is most excellent
calm and conservative to a degree. We con
graduate our people upon the accession to
power of so well balanced a man feeling
sure he will use his position for the largest
good of the largest number.

THE HAINES- DANGBERG CONTEST.

To-day, in the Senate, will be presented
the contested election case of James W
Haines against Fred Dangberg for The Sena-
torship of Douglas County, Some of the
outlines of this case have been already pre-
scented to the readers of the MORNING ArPEAL.
1t seems to be clear case in favor of Hanes
Nobody disputes the fact of his having OBJ
TUNED majority of the votes cast in that
cCun at the last election There is, indeed,
no well grounded pretext that we have heard
of for suffering Dangherg longer to hold d
seat which belongs, by right, to Mr.. Haines.
The influence of certain powerful and grasp
ing corporations viii, no doubt, be exercised
in favor of Dangberg; but every staunch and
true Republican will hold the good name and
interests of his party superior to any claims,
schemes or purposes of any corporation or
other power. We would not appeal to the
pa'tisanship of any man to induce an act of
injustice; but it is not injustice, bat on the
contrary exact and absolute Justice founded
on facts and results which makes Haness
case SO strong and his csnse so equitable.
