The Kiections To-day, ©
This will be a day of intense interto the people of the United States.
* Blections are held in Pennsylvania,
‘Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska, and a del-egate to Congress will also be elected
in Dakota. The South Carolina election will take place on the 16th, and
“the West Virginia on the 24th. The
later elections will possess little interest after the result of the contest
to-day is known. In Pennsylvania
there is some disaffection in-‘the Republican party, and it may to some
extent effect the election, but it_is
not likely that the party will be defeated. In fact the weight of judgment of those who shonld know is,
~
_ the result by none than the usual ma— question the strongest man,and they
_tanjority ‘Gf 3;000 to 5,000 votes,
_ ing tie last two years is now before
that Pennsylvania is pretty certain
for the Republican ticket to-day; and
beyond question, whatever may be
‘the result in this. contest, the State
may be counted certainly for Grant:
dn Ohio there is no question as to
the Democrats
endricks, without
jority. In India:
have Thomas Ay
will prohably support him, and if
“reinforced by any large number of
dhdberals he may be elected, Four
ydars ago Indiana went Democratic
in October, and wheeléd into lino
for Grant and Colfax in) November.
Hendricks may be Governor, but
Grant and Wilson” will get the Elec*@ral vote. Nébraska will be Repub‘gait beyond question, In the two
States where there is a shadow of
doubt as to the result a most active
Canvass has been made,: and we
think from information received from
Kastefn éxchanges, Pennsylvania may
be almost certainly counted for the
Republican.ticket, Hendricks’ pop< wlwrity with his own party, thé close . °
yote usually given in Indiana, and]
the fact that the Miberals there have
teen working most eartiestly for
"Hendricks in the of influencing
the result for-Greeley, may secure
the Stateof Indiana in this contest
fog tive Democracy; but even with a
Grant will carry it against Greeley
im November. In these comments
we have given the most favorable position for the Democracy, and we
should not be nt all surprised, if the
Republicans sweep the four States
named, to-day. Both parties will
~—enxionaly await the news.
Ix his last aunpal message, President Grant anneanced that ‘it had
been the aim of the Administration
te enforce honesty and efficiency in
all public servants. Thore who have!
violated the trust in them
have been proceeded .againat with all
the rigor of the Jaw.’’. ‘Phe long list
of progecutions and.convictions dur
the comntryy Yet Greeley men persist in eharging President Grant as
an ancessory.to.the frauds perpetrated by delinquent Sfficers. When
we consider that ali the recreant officers appointed by Andrew Johnson,
who were convicted and punished,
are now lnstily shouting for Greeley;-and are in favor of honesty und .
refurm, we may easily understand
what these reformers, not yet reformed, meaii by reform. They desire to
see the good old times returh when
they could, under Johnson, help
theniéelvés with both haads in the
public Treasury and nobody would
tind.fault with them: If Horace is
elected, = Sm, ae, another

At the race on Saturday, at San}
Francisco, “Goldsmith Maid” wont .
8 mile in 2.184%. This ia the fastest
tame évet made on @ half mile track.

The exhibitions of vanity and inordinate self-conceit daily made in the
columns of the Sacramento Union,are
go extraotdinary and so far im excess
of anything ever before ‘imagined,
that they” are really becomiing intensély interesting. According tothe
assertions of the editorof that paper,
pblican party in this State.—
There are some thirty ddd Republiean papers now opposing its course,
but then, says the high mightiness of
the Union, these journals are the
‘‘chickadee press”’ of the State and
ondeserving of notice. The Union
only is-right and all the-rest_are
wrong, and every newspaper and every citizen of the State that don’t
. agree with the -Union,.is wholly und
cumpletely inthe interests of. the
railrosd company, and unworthy of
confidence. The Unton thust also be
the sole judge whether men are trust.
worthy or not, and no matter what .
may have been their past retord, or
what may now be theic’ prosfession
of principles, if the Union does not
favor them they are not to be accepted as worthy of confidence. Primary
elections, county and State conventions must be managed by the Union
or else the Republicau party is forever lost. The Republican press of
the State, which asa unit now opposes the arrogant dictation of the
inion, is treated with perfect contempt, and every day the coarsest epithets are hurled against it because
it is true to the principles of the party, and unanimously supports its
nominees.
The Union is really arrayed. equarely in opposition to the Republican.
party of this State, but still pretends
to desire to advance the interests of
that party. The managers of that
paper have the impudence to ‘assume
that they have more wisdom than the
whole party combined; and that unlesa their advice is implicitly followed the party will be beaten. This
claim is made when the rank and
file of the Republican’ party know
fall well that the Union has never
been true either to the interests of
the Republican party, or true to the
interests of the State, and they know
to-duy its support of Grant is merely
for effect, and that it may be enabled
to carry ont ita schemes for the defeat of Congressional nominees of
the party. # Aa
“The editor who writes the sitictes
professedly favoring th tion of
Grant is an avowed supporter of
Greeley, aud has not oné single sympathy in common with the Republity of this State. This course of
onduct shows an amount of arrogance and self conceit that is truly
remarkable, and if unblushing impudence can earry a point the Union
will be successful in its effort to disrupt.and demoralize the Republican
party of this State. We imagine,
however, thatthe .people are. not
disposed to submit to the dictations
of a few individuals “manage
that paper. ‘We believe that they
fully understand that, notwithstanding the arrogant boasts of this journal, its editors and proprietors are
not possessed of superior intelligence
or honesty, andare not by any means
qualified to dictate the:policy of ‘the
Republican party. “If the Republicans of this State are independent
thinkers, and we know this'is one of.
their characteristics, they will utter:
ly and wholly repudiate the advice of
the Union, and will frown down its
attempt to. browbeat, defame and
abuse every citizen who Batnaa.t0
accept its dictation,
The idea that the honesty and
brains of the Republican party is in
the Union office isoné: of the vagaries of the insane managers of that
paper which the people .will a
with proper contempt.

If there is one tudamental reqnisite for a teacher, it i& thathhe shonld
have a good moral @haracter. No
ones actions are more apt ‘to be no-;
-ticed or copied than the teacher's; .
no one has.so mahy wi atchful eyes on .
him, or so many. tender minds and .
hearts moulding themselves by his .
every look, word and action.
teacher should be, and, in reality, is,
the framer. of the character.of most
of those uhder-his charge, and,ina
their moral and physical training,
but alse for their moral udvaticsinent.
Under our present. system of school
laws, a teacher, it is true; can not
make much by attempting to teach
morality by preeept, still he can-do
so by example, whith is, after all, the
teacher’s most. powerfal aid. It .is
almost impossible to teach anything
well except by example. For instance, if a teacher attempt to teach
reading without being himself the
model or exatifpley’Will his pupils
make any advancement? Or, worse
still, should a teacher attempt to
teach by example and be not himself
a good reader, ‘will not. his pupils
copy his errors? They certainly
will;an@ soitis with nearly every
study, but More especially is it the
case when taken in a moral bearing.
Visit a!school where the teacher acts
the tyrant over the school and what
will you find? _ Will the pupils have
such a horror of tyranny as not to
practice it themselves when opportunity offers? Just the réverse of it;
they will be the true imitators of the
teacher, and might, not right, will
influence them, a8 you may plainly
see if you notice them in their plays.
Visit the schocl where the teacher is
ain, unbeliever in either God or man,
and you will find, should you mention thename, atthe sound of which,
all knees should bend, that there wifi
be * sneer on the face of most of the
pupils, which will tell you only tpé
plainly that the teacher's examplefias
had iteveffect. Again, notice the influence that ‘an intemperate, gain
bling, @anting; or otherwise diasipated teacher has on the gnofality of
his pupils, and you will find that by
his actions, by hisexample, he has
instilled inte their minds and hearts.
that, » sebich Fears of goed. example
will not, eradicate, that. which gives
4 bce pleasure to nong bat Satanor his emissaries. Thereare few but know
that these are facts, still it isian undeniable fact, that there are school
officers~and we know whereof we
eak—who engage teachers whom
pi a are, morally, HO more fitted to be the instructors or guides of
their children than ia the most degraded inhabitant of San Quentin.
Can they reconcile sach actions with
their oaths to discharge their duty. to
the best of their ability? The moral
standing of teachers is, under our
local trusteo system, which we ‘consider radicaily wrong, but little considered. All that at present seems
necessary for a teachet to possess, is
a certificate granted by some Board
of Examination. Having that it
seems he may overstép the bounds of
common decency, and still be a teacher; may be an open disgrace to the
profession, and yet claim the fraternal friendship of those who are striving to combat vice as wéll as. ignorance. If those whose duty itis to
look after the general welfare of the
schools do not take heed of the moral standing of teachers, then we may
expect that the profession of teaching
will continue to -be held in the contempt that itnow 1s in some parts of
Nevada county. T. H,

The Union and.the Bulletin-have noticed the independent ‘character of
the voters, but have not fully appreciated its true nature. They have
trap about railroad-monopolies, and
all that, and have from the outset
stigmatized as the ‘‘railroad candidate’’ several gentlemen, who at different times seemed likely to get the
Republican , nomination for Congress. As soon as Page was selectéd,
they renewed their cry of ‘‘railroad.’’
It was apparent to any careful observer that they had paved the way
in advance of the nomination,
so that they could apply their pet
term to the successful aspirant, whoever he might be. For several years
it has been their custom to brand as
a ‘railroad man,’’ anybody who.
sought public favor without first

Wanted a Candidate.
Mayor Alvord, of San Francisco,
refuses to be made‘a tool for the defeat of the regttlar Republican nominee for Congress in San Francisco,
but will support Mr. Clayton. Is it
not a little remarkable that the Sacao
‘rameuto Union cannot furnish the
soreheads of San Francisco with a
candidate who will stand, or has the
material at command of the Sacramento buzzard been exhausted in the
production of chickadee Coggins.
You know it would be so easy for the
Union to tharge Alvord with being a
tool of the corporation fur refusing
the nomination ef the soreheads,
Coggins is too thin for a Congressman now or he might be sent tu San
-Francisco to supply the want of the
Bulletin.
