A Wolf iva Sleeps Clothing.

Great care should be taken now
a-days not to adopt some principle
or argument upon political topics,
claiming to come from an unbiased
and nonpoltical source, when in
fact it is the prejudiced opinion of
some frautic partizan attempting
to mislead some men by a garb of
candor, when in truth, he is cloth
ed in hypocricy. There are some
religious and commercial papers.
pretending TO be neutral in politics.
yet each issue gives Inference to n
biased political sentiment. For in
stance the -1dcoace, religious pa
per claiming to be neutral political
ly, and to candily give utterance to
the honest political sentiment of
either party, fills up certain COL
umns in each paper with puffs and
praises Of Grant and Wilson. and
INDUCES in bitter vituperations of
Sir. Greeley. When people show
under what color they sail we can
respect them, and always know
where to find them, and can make
such allowances for personal feel
ings as candid mind would need
to in order to obtain fair decis-
ion in his own mind. While IL he
rely on the biased sentiment ex-
pressed in papers claiming to be
neutral, he is led astray. Such
deeds as these cannot well coincide
with religious professions, and when
tie trIth is found out will certain
ly reduce respect for such
professions.

Question at the
Coming Election.

There is to be one question de
sided at the coming fall election
that we think has but one side t
it; and that side should re
ceive a vote from every voter al
the polls. The question is upon
an increase of the salary to be al
lowed to the Circuit Judges. The
law now fixes the salary of the Cir
cult Judges at 81, 800 per year. 1t
is well known that the require
ments of that position in the North
ern counties of the State are such
that the very best lawyers are
needed upon the Judicial Bench
But with a salary of only $1,000,
even lawyers themselves, have not
the audacity to ask one of their
leading brethering to accept place
having attached TO it such great
and important duties, and involv-
ing so much labor in its fulfillment.
Therefore, in many cases, weaker
of the bar are called upon
to perform a duty that they are
entirely united for. And on this ac-
count, many times the people are
the sufferers. The Judicial
Districts in the Southern
part of the State are generally
small, and have but little business,
and the labor is not as arduous nor
rs difficult as the matters that ar
rise for adjudication in these new
rr counties, and so we urge the
people of this county to vote en-
masse for the proposed increase of
salary, in order that we may have
A man upon the bench well fitted
and competent to decide upon
questions involving our interests,
Is the people of the counties in the
part of the State, feeling
no need of an increased salary in
order to perform the small amount !
If work the be performed by them,
vill vote strongly against this meas
ire. Ballots for this proposed in
'rease will be provided at the polls,
md we hope that every voter will
zee to it that he casts a vote in favor
If an undoubted right, and one that
will ultimately be benefit to his
interests.

Early last Wednesday morning,

Council Room commenced TO fill
with citizens, and an organization
was soon perfected, with Geo. L.
Maltz as President, Fred. Bu-

that he could not talk, that he

wind was good. He claimed that
because Adams and jefferson were
elected, Greeley ought to be de-

the beginning of the war was under

Heaven, Grant was the greatest
living, and ought to be
elected. That the Geneva tribu-
nal had given us $4,000, 900. and
consequently the working men
ought to vote the Grant ticket and
because the only thing the Greeley
men could accuse them trutbfullv
