AN INSANE CONTENTION.

There can be no two intelligent opinions
about the position in which Ex-Governor
Ihayer, Of Nebraska, has seen tit to place
himself None but bigoted and unreason-
Ing partisans can be inclined to approve of
his attitude. On the contrary, il is the
duty Of every Republican. and especially
Of every Republican newspaper that values
the reputation and welfare of the party. to
let the world know that they, in behalf OF
the party, disapprove of and denounce
such indefensible proceedings.
Boyd may not be eligible to the Office of
governor. That is a question which, if
open to doubt, should be investigated and
settled. Legal means for doing so are open
TO any who entertain such doubt. Until
those means are awaited of the presamp-
tions are ali in his favor, and present
prima facie case, which Thayer, no more
than the humblest citizen of Nebraska, has
any right TO disregard. and which il is
more unhecoming for him than for any
other citizen to question, for the reason
that in his case il prompts and iustihes
suspicion of a purely selfish motive.
The legal presumption is that the peo-
pie of Nebraska, acting under the consti-
tuition and laws of that state, are con-
versant Herewith and conform thereto.
Therefore the presumption is that they
knew what constituted eligibility, and
that they voted-or plurality of them. at
least--for none other than an eligible per-
son. II Is not disputed that Boyd re-
ceived plurality of the votes at the last
election. That he stood for the office, re-
ceived plurality of the votes OF the peo-
pie, and accepted II, add to the presump-
tons in his favor.
These assumptions are still further
leaengthened by the action of the legis-

are excluded, nor Is il apparent that any
Of these, or any other among hundreds os
prope. and judicious selections from the
Scriptures. would any more conduce 70 sec
tartan bias than would so many intelligent
selections from Plato. Socrates, Confu-
cins or Zoroasfer. Sound public opinion
is unalterably opposed to sectarian In
struction or bias In our public schools,
bat viii never consent that the compilers
Of our school books shall be shut ont Of so
rich mine of choice literature as Is the
Bible. This is the happy middle ground
upon which all must meet.

remark that If government has not the
right 10 supervise the election Of its own

an idea OF New MeXicO's future. Official

THE Clayton Enterprise is hard at work

new county of Union; perseverance tells
and as far as the matter is concerned, II
there are sufficient tax payers and sutfi-
