Stanford University and goes to Reno
text week to take the examination at the
State University. IL was understood
when Mr.. Springmeyer went to Stanford,
about three months ago, that he would
return here and graduate from the
State University at this time, but Presi-
dent Stubs now refuses to graduate Mr..
Springmeyer before September, il then.
The conduct of President Stubbs in this
matter is ~disgraceful and inexplicable, il
the Courier is correctly informed. The
petty spite exhibited by President Stubs
of the State University towards student
Springmeyer is commented on freely by
students Of the University. The opinion
seems to prevail that Mr.. Stubs is too
small a man for the position he occupies.
Reno Gazette.
The Gazette thinks the law making the
election Of school trustees fall in May is
a mistake. In several towns in this State
the election went by default, for no n
took interest enough to see that the law
is complied with. In other places the
election vas warm. When the election
OF trustees took place at the November
election under the old law it was neither
too hot nor too cold, for the patrons Of the
public schools took interest enough in
the selection of trustees to see that good
men were nominated on every ticket pre-
sented. The present law should be re-
pealed.
Virginia Chronicle.
George F. Turritin of Reno is the latest
Republican to that he will not
accept a nomination for a State Office this
year. Other prominent Republicans in
other parts OF the State have preceded
Mr.. Turritin with a similar declaration,
and the action Of the State Central Com
mittee in postponing the date Of the CON-
vention will probably cause others to fol-
low the lead. 1t looks as though the
party will have a hard time filling out its
ticket this Fall.
Virginia Report.
The nomination of Major John III.
Dennis as a candidate for q State Office
would be equivalent to bis election. and
he should receive such recognition as a
slight reward for his able work in the
ranks of the Democratic party. The pro-
position of the Appeal editor indicates
that a slate of Fusion candidates has al
ready been arranged, and that the hold
ing OF a convention will be merely for the
purpose of ratifying the action of the
clique which voluntarily assumes to die
tate who shall be the nominees. The
Report is opposed to such arbitrary &C.
ton and will advocate the smashing Of
any slate "ixed" by sel~f-appointed lead
ers of the Fusion party.
Elko Independent.
The Carson Appeal has an interesting
article urging John H. Dennis, Secretary
of the Democratic State Committee, for a
place on the fusion State ticket. The
Appeal proposes that the candidates for
places on the State ticket meet and de-
eide by lot who shall withdraw in favor
of MI. Dennis. The Independent thinks
the better plan would be for the Demo-
cratic State Convention to nominate John
III. Dennis for Governor with or without
the consent OF any Of the candidates
mentioned for that office. Mr.. Dennis
deserves recognition for his past services,
and his nomination and election would
be a graceful recognition of those services.
His name at the head of the ticket would
be q tower OF strength.
winnemucca Silver State.
The proposition for some Silver party
aspirant to withdraw in favor Of John
Dennis is a m~eritorious one. There is no
man in the State more deserving Of polit-
ical recognition than he is.
