Tbe Superintendency.


The canvass for county superintend.
ent has been attended with more mud
singing on both sides than there has
been any occasion for the conduct Of IL
has not been as dignifled as the charac-
ter OF the place to be filled demands.
The original responsibility for the modes
OF warfare invoked rests largely with
the friends Of Mr.. Geist, who have in
dulged In nwarrantable attacks upon
Mr.. Brecht, unjust reflections upon
State Supt. Higbee, and untrue state
ments OF the influences which controlled
the appointment. A new turn has been
given to the contest by the circulation
by mail, among the school directors, of
a violent aud virulent circular, attack
ing the personal character Of Mr.. Geist,
published and circulated anonymously, a
circumstances which goes far to discredit
it and certainly discounts the response
biIity OF those who have resorted to this
mode of warfare.
The matter il contains has been com.
municated to the INTELLIGENCER
repeatedly during the present contest
for the superintendency, sometimes
anonymously and sometimes upon
authority; it has found no place
in these columns, in substance
nor by indirection, not only because
we have deprecated that style of
campaign, but because we preferred
that Mr.. Brecht should be elected upon
a fair appeal to comparison of his pro
fessional fitness with his competitor 5. We
have his earnest assurance and We have
good reason 10 fully credit his word,
that he has no knowledge whatever of
the authorship or publication of this last
card against his opponent, and that he
thoroughly deprecates and entirely dis.
approves of any such superseryiceable
zeal against Mr.. Geist as has inspired it.
1t Is needless to add that if the charges
made in this publication are untrue, Mr..
Geist has been vilely and villainously
libelled end he should promptly dis
cover aud bring to judgment his assail
ants. If he will not, or cannot do this,
he must at once take himself out Of the
canvass.

governor this unusual power was no

the control Of the Pittsburg Republican
ring ; they never failed to exercise il {;
the man removed had been appointed
because he was Republican and, as the
appointee Of Gov. Pattison is acknowl-
edged to be "a man well qualified to ill
the position" there is not likely to ensue
fatal shock to any reform sentiment
except that bogus kind of the PInchbecks
and Pecha'ilIs who think civil service IL
form essentially consists in keeping the
Democrats out.
The governor, by the way, does not
seem to resent the cOmmendation Of the
Democratic state convention in the same
manner as some of his superserviceable
