For GoVernor.

The Sarer State. referring to remarks
Of an eastern Nevada correspondent Of
tho Reno Journal. suggesting Mr.. A. A.
Curtis as candidate for Governor next
term. on the Republican ticket, gives
expression TO the following:
"The suggestion that tho Governor
be chosen from the eastern part of the
State we think a good one, and we have
heard the pane OF Major j. ii. Dennis,
OF Tuscarora, favorably mentioned for
that position. His long connection with
the newspaper business, and general
good, practical sense. is urged in his
favor, and 1t is urged that he belongs 10
the Bradley school OF politics. which
teaches that extravaganza by public
officials OF the public moneys is q crime;
that practical good sense and economy
are essential to success in the affairs OF
a State as well as Of individuals.
While fully indorsing the views of the
SHrer State, as above set forth, and be.
heving that no moro worthy successor
to Honest Old "Broad- d-horns" could be
selected from the ranks of the Democ-
racy OF the State, we nevertheless feel
quite safe in saying that under no cir
cumstances would he become q candi-
date for that position. Mr.. Dennis was
the first to publicly suggest NJ Can
navan, of Storey County. as his choice
for the nomination, at the same time
announcing determination to exert his
political influence to that end, and in
our estimation the Major is not the style
of man that goes back Oh promise
or personal friend.
