IscariOtS.

The world is full of Iscariots. The
original was not so bad as he was painted.
He did not mean to compass the death of
| the Saviour, but though he could save
thirty pieces of silver and that the power
| of his Master was too absolute for any
harm to come to him. There are thou
sands and tens of thousands of men like
him in the world. There are men who
will betray their country in small way
to make money of it. They console
themselves with the thought that the
country is too great to be shaken by SO
little transaction, and yet out of them
have grown all our Indian wars, be-
cause of them almost all the sorrows
and because of them the masses
have fallen off in respect for the
authorities so much that really upright
men hesitate before jeopardizing their
good names through accepting office,
The baneful evil descends to private life
and becomes the father of thousand
heart aches and crimes. The clerk loves
his employer, would not harm him for
the world, and yet some time he ventures
to take dollar, unaccounted for, from
the till intending to replace it next day.
Like Judas he wants the silver and be-
ieves that the act of getting it is not be-
trayal of his Master; but the next day he
wants more and the result is fight or a
prison, or often, as did the Iscariot of
old, he goes out and hangs himself. A
great evil may cloud or fetter commu-
nifty. You will find thousand men who
will denounce it to you and tell you it
ought to be abated, but if the test comes
that requires their presence or their sig
nature they will refuse. Why? Because
for the little silver they can gain by
hiding their thoughts, they have sold
their souls, and are willing to make
those who nurse the wrong believe they
are smiling approval. The greed for
gold is emasculating the world. Men
are betraying their Master, principle,
every day for it, as much as did Judas
Iscariot. They are obsequious to wealth:
they smile approval to tyrannies; they
withhold their hands from the palms of
honest poverty; they batray their own
manhood; they are Iscariots for coin.
The eyes of mothers catch the CLEAN of
gold and become facinated until they be-
tray their daughters into false marriages
even while, like Iscariot, they kiss them.
Young girls walk the streets and watch
the finery displayed in the windows, and
the Iscariot within then begins to whisper
"Of course you'll not betray yourself to
the world, but you are very poor, and the
mantle of the night will conceal for you
little indiscretion." Either the old Is
CARROT has been too much blamed or,there
IS not blame enough for those who imi-
tate him in modern days. The thing
most full of human nature in the New
Testament is that the Savior, or even af-
ter at His touch the eyes Of the blind
were opened, and at the sound of His
voice the grave gave up its dead-the
most natural thing, we say, was that He |
was betrayed by one He thought his !
friend, and that He was betrayed for
money.

conceived a passion for her, imagined he
stood in the way of his success, and in
his insane jealousy challenged and shot

never certainly known, as the lady pre-
served q strict silence in regard to it !;
but, as the rumors and gossips were very
unpleasant to herself and husband, they
removed from the country, and another
brother caused this singular monument

the private and romantic histories of the

ELECTION RETURNS .

That Indiana has gone Republican by ,
vote of six thousand or Whereabouts, there
appears to be no question. Ohio also ha'
gone Republican, and West Virginia has gone
Democratic. So il stands to-day. SO far n
the prestige of the October elections in The
West is concerned, the Democracy has gotten
the worst Of il. II was expected that Indiana
would 90 Democratic because it is n Demo.
cratic state; 1t was expected that Ohio would
go Republican, but by u reduced majority
over that of last year, and II was known that
West Virginia would 20 Democratic. but by
decreased majority, because the Green.
hackers have some little strength in that
state, and u reduction Of the Democratic ma
iority there, has about the same Significance
that IL has here. In West Virginia we have
not been disappointed and probably not in
Ohio. AS NJ. English in hS telegram TO
Senator Barnum, Oh irman OF the Democratic
Executive Committee says, the entire strength
of the Republican party was thrown in
behalf of The ticket in Indians; the Rerub-
licans made it the battle ground.
Many a skirmish has been won to-day and
and the battle lost tomorrow. The election
on Tuesday was but the scattering firing Of
tho skirmishers. Ga tho second of Novem,
Der, the bottle takes place and there is time
enough 10 win Indiana for Hancock and En.
glish. Mr.. English says that having only the
Republican party of Indiana to contend with
in November, the Democracy will carry the
state and ii is sincerely to be hoped that such
will be the casr. Mr.. Secretary of the treas.
ury, John Sherman, in his speech at Chica.
go Wednesday night, said that winning the
election in October, was not winning the
presidential election, and hc urged vigilance
and activity until after November second.
In Ohio the cheering sign was given Of an
increased Democratic vote in tho county
where the Sold ers Home is located, showing
that the soldiers are true to the gallant gen-
eral who fought with them to save the union
We think there is good cheer for the Dem
ocracy and for constitutional government yet.

man at the Union depot, whom they took
for drunk and down, and lodged him in

covered that he was suffering from what was

GOVERNOR ROBERTS SPEECH

In this issue We publish in full the speech
Of Governor Roberts delivered in San Anto.

for 1t because tho Governor and his friends
insisted that he Was misunderstood on some
OF the leading questions at issue prior TO the
Dallas convention, and no fair minded man

was in accord with the principles and policies

or on the policies cOGhLded for by the latter,

than opposed at home by the CONVEY

In the opening OF his speech, thee ovornor
sounds tho kev note, the true inwardness of
his highest wish aad effort, tho policy on
which he seems TO have thought it well to
hang I'LL othr Issues and tina, il TO watch and
take re of the AuNnco department and to
organize saC1 system of faance. And in.
deed this is the backbone of state admin.
istration. The governor has been severely
criticised for necessitating The calling of tho
last extra session. In his speech he explains
hereason why he was not sufficiently famil-
lar with the true condition of the finances,
viz; THAT no person knew or could tell even
approximately what had been the not revenue
or the net expenses Of the State" and hence
q correct estimate budget for the ensuing
two years was an impossibilty.
This is fearful commentary on the
comptroller's department, the books and
accounts of which ought 10 be KEPT in such
manner rs would exhibit those data at a
glance o. the business mind. Tho difficulty
was one wi ich We understand Mr.. Darden
had inherited from the inadequate systems
of his predecessors, one that was to be rene

expenses during his term, the governor pro
