Vote For Cutting.

We find the following compliment.
tary notice OF Mr.. H. c. Cutting. the
Silver party nominee for State Sup.
e~rintendent OF Public instruction, in
Sae Reno Journal correspondence
from Candelaria. where Mr.. Cutting
taught for n number OF terms:
4Be it said to Mr.. Cuttings credet
that his aim was to keep good order
through a firm but gentle discipline,
which not only gave him control over
the scholars during school hours, but
whenever and wherever any Of the
scholars met him the same mutual
love and respect manifested itself in
the most natural manner.
@As to the parents and guardians OF
h pupils, one and all recognize in
MIR. Cutting a man of ability and
economy. BY his method OF teaching
he supplanted text books, thereby
eaving many n dollar of expense to
them. The general opinion is that II
elected and brought in contact with
the teachers in the public schools Of
the State, he will instil some of his
methods OF economy and thus in
augurate n system that would CON-.
mend itself when found in any public
functionary.-
