JUDAS ISCARIOT.

A young attorney. the other day, in
addressing our district court, denounced
his opponents client as having been
guilty of degree of pccuniary
dishonesty which JUDAS IsCAHIor

JUDAS lSCARIoT was traitor worthy
of all the contumely which he receives:
but there is neither fairness nor sense in
crowding the mourners, and loading
him down with crimes of which he was
guiItless. He kept the bag, but there is
no authentic evidence that he handled
its contents otherwise than with pru-
dence and honesty. A contrary view was
prevalent in the middle ages, but that
grew out of a perverted theory of NOR

Gov. Gray. of Indiana

Shelbyviile Qnd.) Daily Democrat.
The Indiana Democracy will likely
present the name of Gov. Gray for the
presidency in 1892, and if any Western
man should get the nomination Gov.
Gray will be that man. If, in the nature
of things, it shall appear that the candi-
date must come from New York, Gov.
Gray will certainly be nominated for
vice president. There is no better Dem
ocrat i'll the United States and no
stronger man i'll Indiana. He always
leads his ticket and has never been de-
feated. If he is placed on the ticket in
1892 1ndiana's electoral vote will be
Democratic.

have been coming in to senators, as we'll
AS representatives. and it will probablybe
introduced in the senate at the first op-
portunity this week. The bill is gen
erM one, and, if passed, will apply to
every county IN the state, grading the
salaries of the chief county officers ac-
cording to the population of the coun-
ties. In the larger counties of the state
the amount paid auditors, treasurers,
clerks of court, Sheritfs and registers
will not be over So, 900. and all will be
equal, while in the smaller counties of
the state, having under 10000 popua-
ton, the amounts paid these officers will
be $500 per year. Between these two
sums all other counties will be ranged.

That all corporations now organized, or
that may be hereafter organized under the
laws of This state. 1Jr the purpose of carrying
