The gathering at the Opera House
last night, the enthusiasms of the null
t;tude and the eloquence of the speakers
made a pleasing picture which glad
dened every Republican. The reception
given the candidates was hearty, gen.
uine and satisfactory. The greeting to
Mr.. Powning was royal rebuke to the
attacks of the Chronicle upon his past
life, and if indications amonnt to any
thing, our next Congressman will go out
of Ormsby county with 800 majority,
along with the Messrs. Leonard, Tufly,
Hallock and Harlow.

There seems to be another split ir
the Democratic party in Nevada, and
this time on the school question. The
State Platform ignored in most posi-
tive manner this very important ques-
ton, the Ormsby county Democrats an
nounced in their platform that it was
not political issue, while the Storey
county Demscrats in their platform say
"the common school system is one to be
ever guarded by wise and efficient laws,
and any attempt to impair usefulness
should be summarily suppressed"
This war in the party on the school
question arises from the fact that there
is real honest difference of opinion on
the subject. There are class of liberia!
Democrats who would like to see the
educational interests of the State fostered
by a judicious expenditure of the pub
lie money, while on the other hand
there exists another cla>s, largely in the
majority, who are never able to dis
guise the contempt they feel for the
public school system, and would if they
could, wipe out the whole system. This
class was in the majority at the Eureka
Convention. The liberal class was in
the majority in Storey, and an evasive,
non-committal faction handled the
Ormsby County Convention. All at
tempts to belittle or trample down the
public school system will fail, as will
also any attempt to remove it from tine
political arena in Nevada. 1t has be
come one of the most important issues
of the campaign, and one which no
party can afford to ignore. The Democ-
racy thought that it could ignore it,
and attempted to do so, but in spite of
the absence of an educational plank in
Eureka, and an excuse found for its
absence in Ormsby, there were found
Democrats in Storey who had the
courage to rise up and rebuke the party
for its folly.

MIR. HILLS CANDIDACY

Mr.. George B. Hill had right, if he
felt SO disposed to run, as an indie
pendent candidate. He made the
announcement before any Convention
met, and if the Democracy endorsed
him it was no fault of his. The De-
mocrscy, however, did not endorse his
candidacy. He asked for the Senator
ship of 0rmsby, and got nomination
as AssembIyrnan. If he accepts this
nomination he goes with a single step
into the Democratic ranks.

Journalism as 1t Is

In an address, to the Kansas editors
recently, o. H. Rothaker, chief of the
Denver Tribune, we'll said: "There
is no necessity for plunging journalism
into an atmosphere as mystery. 1t is
as methodical and plain and practical
as any other calling. 1t is always the
green man in the office who talks about
the. wild demands for copy and crawl
ing back up stairs to heara conversation,
and abnormal hunger, and who chuckles
over a stolen manuscript or a free lunch.
He it is who is responsible for the idle
less idiot who come into your office,
picks up pair of scissors and shippers
that antique imbecility about its being
the chief editor, and smokers with con-
scious discovery when he sees you cut
out piece of miscellany as though he
had caught you stealing an editorial.
1t is the amateur who is the inspiration
of such stuff. But for him, the fresh
fools who imagine they cannot 60 into
an editorial room without paying an
admission fee of cheap cigar or a
drink of bad whiskey would not be so
numerous. They would keep their
mephetic breath and loud vulgarity in
the dives which best harmonize with
them, and allow honest men to attend
fO their business in DeaceO
