THE SCHOOL ELECTION.
Views of the Chairman of the Republican
City Central Committee.

| EDS. RECORD y MON A few days since
two gentlemen, representing the Citizsns
movement, called on NE to ascertain my
views as to the probable course that will be
pursued by the Republican Committee in re-
lation to the school nominations. l stated to
them generally my own views, without pre-
tending to state the views of the ether men,
bers of the committee. In order that my
position personally msy be publicly under
stood, will say that 1 will not favor nom-
mating the Republican candidates any con.
siderable time before the nominations are
made by the other political parties, for these
reasons: To do 50 would subject our cardi-
dates TO be preyed upon and bled by horde
of anprincipled and merciless election stIik-
ers and that the gentlemen who will be
nominated on the Republican ticket l am
satisfied will be so we'll known that the peo.
pie will be as well prepared to decide on their
election in week as in month.
So far as | am concerned personally, [ am
in favor of nominating for Superintendent
Dr.. J. r. Laine for Directors, j. I. Slater,
w. d. Stalker, D. Johnston and C. H. Cum.
mings. L make this statement unoficialiy
and without pretending to repre-
sent the views OF the balance of the
committee, although I will say that I
have spoken to several of the members, and
their views coincide with the views above
expressed. l will further say that l have not
consulted with either of the gentlemen named
above, and do not know if they will accept
the nominations. [ have, in fact been told
that Mr.. Cummings will not accept the
nomination, but it is my deliberate judgment
that, il the nomination is rendered to him, it
will be his duty to accept it. He has served on
ba for oh
understands the duties of the office and the
requirements of the department, and 1 am
satisfied that no man could be nominated in
his ward by the party who would be more
acceptable to the public.
1 will further ada that, in my opinion, the
better result can be attained by discussion
of the merits of candidates before the selec-
tion of the committee rather than after the
nominations are made, as it will enable the
committee to act in accordance with the ex-
pressed views Of the party. w. j. DAVIS.

CELESTIAL PYRoTEcHNICs.-A contempo-
rary, speaking of brilliant meteoric shower,
calls it Celestial Pyrotechnics." The Sac
ramentan Of the nineteenth century don't
hinge that term to the fireworks up among
the stars. His mind instantly reverts to the
tallow candles in red paper bags doing their
| level best to shine through the street black
ness. where the night.blooming tomcat is
dumb before the endless sepulchral yowlings
| of the Chinese vocalists /; and where the Ger
| man accordeon man flies away and hides his
diminished head VIXEN the oss- house orchestra
| makes night hideous with their Internal melo-
| dies-melodies to which the warblines of a
gang of drunken Piutes are as M &c Of the
| spheres.
