CINCINNATI, Oct. lJth, 1879.
Special to Knoxville Chronicle:
The day has been a pleasant one
ell over the State, and the largest
vote ever polled was clst-probAbly
nearly seven hundred Thousand. The
returns have steadily indicated Re-
publican gains. AT this hour-mid-
night-the indication are that Eos.
ter'S majority for Governor is from
$4,000 TO $4,000, and may reach 49,
600, which almost necessarily implies
a Republican Legislature, insuring a
Republican Senator in place of Thur
man. But six ont Of n~inety-fve pre-
cints in Hamilton county have been
heard from, in all of which are good
Republican gains. The indications
are that the Legislative ticket from
Hamilton is elected by a majority of
nearly $4,000.
In Cleveland the Republican major
jority is about 500 with a full county
ticket elected. There are no returns
from any other large cities yet in.
AT half past ten the Democratic head
quarters in Columbus was closed up
and the Democrats bad gone home
sick, while the Republicans were wild
with excitement. The election Of a
Republican Legislature insures a
complete redemption of the State
from Democratic rule, and tie resto-
ration of Congressional districts as
they were before the Democratic ger
mimander that enables them to send
Democratic delegations to Congress 8.
AS compared with the vote Of 1877 it
represents a change Of about $4,000
votes, and is the greatest Republican
victory since 1872.
CINCINNATI, Oct. l5.-The Republi-
can victory is the grandest since 1872.
The House has 10 Republican majority
and the Senate 2. This defeats Thur
nan for the United States Senate.
Fosters majority will not be less than
$1,000.

THE STATE DEBT.

cessity for that lunaJlc asylum al -Cleye-

since, By his lucubrations on the State
debt. The validity Of the State debt l.

snable every dollar of ii could be re-
covered by the creditors. Chat. CON-
ReYcid!.
We shall see who will occupy that
asylum first. If the editor Of tue Com
mercial can not read the hand writing
OH the wall, he is indeed very duh.
To a man up a tree it seems that the
people of Tennessee will never pay
that debt until it is sifted-at least the
returns of the late election make it ap-
pear so.
The Republicans of Tennessee have
been making fools of themselves long
enough. They must take a bold stand
in favor of sitting the debt and paying
ell that is INST, if they expect to win
the race.
Nobody probably doubts the validity
Of the debt. but there are thousands
that doubt the justice Of it.
There is no use trying to deny the
fact that some of the bonds sole for less
than face value and in violation of
law. Then whore is the justice in pay
ing any man more money than toe
State received, with Interest on top Of
thatY We say there is no justice in it.,
and If the Republican party dare TO
propose to pay such a debt in fall, they
will meet with a d~isgraceful defeat
such as any party should that would
dare insult an enlightened and honest
people.
But the Republican party will
do any such IA fool thing. They will
meet in convention-make Il platform

Good Lord show us just one.
Does the Democratic party pre-

Is there a man in the Democratic

any honesty about it.
Has it not disgraced the once
proud State of Tennessee?
Now for even a portion Of that par

VANCOUVER INDEPENDENT.
THURSDAY, APRIL Il, 1879.

The greenback party in Congress,
of which great things were expected,
exhibited it's usual wisdom in per-
hitting itself to be SWALLOWED with
out greasing" bv the Democratic
party. The New York Tribune of
April : very properly illustrates the
situation, and says "that by the course
which they have adopted in voting
with the Democrats, the greenback-
ers have virtually disbanded, and
as political managers they have made
themselves laughing stock of both
parties" Another special says "the
greenback party in the house is in a
bad way. 1t has sold out to the de-
mocracy, and has been cheated out
Of the price which it expected to re-
ceive. Another caucus will now
probably be held for the purpose of
determining what course shall be
pursued in the future. Many men,
bers are indignant at what they call
the perfdy of the Democrats"

Alaska affairs still remain in bad
way, the natives quarrelsome and
threatening, and the protection of the
gun-boats being uncertain. a civil
government with some strength to it
should be established at Sitka, or
else the place should be abandoned
until such time as the natives shall
succeed in eating each other up.

A small band of Indians, who few
days since killed and scalped Private
Leo Bader, of the I'd cavalry, and Sc
riously wounded Sergeant Kennedy,
of the signal service near Deadwood
in the Black Hills, were captured by
Sergeant Thomas B. Glover, of the
I'd cavalry, with detachment of ten
men, and taken into Fort Keogh on
Monday. The Indians surrendered
Immediately on the approach of the
soldiers, not offering any resistance
or attempting to escape. Bader's
horse and scalp lock were found in
their possession, yet, with all these
evidences of murder in this case these
Indians will not be tried, and prob
ably not punished, simply because a
government cannot try for murder
a people with whom it exercises treaty
making. That part of Indian man
agement is great mistake.

The following political paragraph

from the Oregonian is very suggestive:
Shrewd politicians have discovered
that the exodus of colored people from
the south may be made an interest
ing factor in politics. 1t is suggested
that only few negro voters are
needed to make doubtful northern
states sure republican, and thus con-
front solid south with solid north.
Though merely suggestion, it is suf-
icient to make each particular dem
ocratic hair stand on end.
Should the Republicans of Indiana
New Hampshire, New Jersey and
New York get into an extensive col
ored emigration scheme it would
make music in the land.

TO SCHOOL TEACHERS.

To those who are acquainted with the his
tory and progress of education in this coun-
try the utility of the Teachers Institute
needs no explanation. 1t has become one
of the educational forces in the land; and
wherever the public school meets with the
greatest success, the institute has become an
acknowledged success. The work OF train
ing the young is one of the most complicated
and at the same time most responsible tasks
upon which an individual can enter; hence.
no pains should be spared, no opportunity
should be lost, to build up profession of
such vital interest to society. But aside
from the duties we owe to the profession of
teaching there is another to which it may
be well to call your attention. Sections IS
and 70 of our school law make it the duty
of the County Superintendent of each county
having more than ten organized school dis
trcts to hold annually teachers institute
at such time as my be agreed upon between
him and the Territorial Superintendent.
They also make it the duty of all teachers
in the county ''to attend such institute and
participate in the exercises thereof; and all
teachers who have charge of schools at the
time of holding the institute shall adjourn
their schools for the time during which the
institute shall be held"
The Territorial Superintendent is ex-
pected to be present, and we hope that we
shall secure other aid from outside our
county, and no pains will be spared to make
it a success. r. ROBB,
County Supt of Schools.

and it is expected the line will be
completed to Corvallis this season.

enterprise now under active progress
in Oregon, and should be soon sup

Bay.
