THE TRIBE OF ISCARIOT.

The Milwaukee Journal, by no
means a prohibition paper made the
following comment upon the brew
ers' activities in politics and their
conviction in federal court:
"The charge under which these
brewers were punished was that they
raised and spent fund exceeding
S1,000,000 to influence the election Of
United States Senator, and thirty
six members of the lower House of
Congress. The whole thing is stag
gering. Here was an attempt 10 de-
bauch the electorate of a great COM
monwealth, TO buy seats in the halls
Of Congress and TO pcrvert TO soraid
ard selfish purpose tie government
of the Nation. 1t was not only done
violation Of law. brt it = destluc-
tive Of representative govornent."

JUDGE SLACK SHOOTING
At SOMETHING HIGHER.

Now comes the news that Judge
r. w. Slack is being doomed in Re-
publican circles as a probable candi-
date for Judge of the Court of APP
peals from the Second Appellate Dis
trict Some of the Republican lead
ers are of the opinion that he would
make strong candidate against the
Democratic nominee for that Office,
as his defeat Of the Democratic NOM
inee for Circuit Judge in this district
in 1915 was considered rather re-
markable.
Mr.. Will S. Kaltenbacher, of the
Louisville Times, has this to say III
regard to his candidacy:
"The name of Judge Robert w.
Slack, of Greensboro, is being promi-
nently mentioned for the Republican
nomination for Judge of the Court
of Appeals in the Second Appellate
district. This news was brought to
Louisville by a member of the Re-
publican State Central Committee,
who stated that Judge Slack was be-
ing doomed all over the district for
the new honor. Judge Slack is the
present Circuit Judge of the judicial
district composed of Daviess, Mclean,
Hancock and Ohio counties, and his
feat Of winning in strong Democrat
ic district two years ago is still the
talk in political circles. Should he
become candidate, which is regard
ed as extremely likely, his friends as
sert that he would prove a formula
BILE factor for his party's nomina-
ton"

Rabbit hunting has been a very
pepuar as we'll as profitable sport
this winter, as the "molly-cotton
tails" have been selling at unusually
good prices. We can recollect when
a lad we used to trap Brer Rabbit
and was lucky il We received as
much as sc for him. Just the other
day we saw a colored man skinning
one and upon being asked what it
cost him, he said twenty cents. so
the one who wishes to enjoy the ten
der hind legs OF the rabbit these days
will have to pay more than four times
what the editor used to sell them at
when a boy. And lest you forget.
we are not as "old as the hills" eth
er.
