There is gooingto bc something
doing in city politics. Some people .
pIc arc going to bump up against
thc fact that conditions have
changed and ; that it is not as : easy
to count votes before they arc
cast , as it used to bc.
-----1
When a man aspires to office ,
his ability and fitness should bc
thc first considcration. His claim
in thc party shou1d } conic ncxt.
If found worthy fr0111 these two
stand points hc should bc allowed -
cd to enter thc racc. If not hc
should bc ruled out.
- - - - - -
It is not Opi.obablc that other
powers will become involved \ in .
. thc oriental war. Of course every
nation is looking : to its defenses
and are preparing for war in timc
of pcacc ' \ Te do not believe that
there will ever be another world
war Russia may whip Japan ,
or Japan may whip Russia and
then whcn it comes to the terms
of surrender tlc other powers
will simply stand by and see that
justice is clonc.

Slowly but surely thc salvation
of republicanism in this county is
being worked out. Great forces
arc at work and thc party is pass-
ing through a new birth. Out of
the old shall he cl1\'oh.cd thc new ;
out of thc old discord shan be
wrought thc harmony ; the evil
forces that have so long been act-
h"c shall bc neutra1izec1. After
the night made hideous by - . thc
phantoms of factionalism and
personal hate , and envy and selfishness -
ishncss shall conic thc better day.
'I ' he party has learned now who
its real enemies are , and haYing
f\rced them out into thc light
will deal with then in no uncertain -
tain manner 'l'hc voice of thc
party has spoken and all her
forces arc relying to thc dcfcnse.

RENEGADES.
I-listory makes frequent mcn-
tion of the retiegade and never in
very flattering tcrms A rcnc-
g-udc , is an oposta from thc
faith , without necessarily going
so far as to become a convert to
another faith-hc has simply renounced -
nounced thc faith that was in
him , gcncrall . } " from some ulterior
11l0ti , .c.
Perhaps history affords us no
more striking instance of apos-
tacy than that of Judas Iscariot.
St 'Iatthctclls us that : 'l'hen
one of the twelve called Judas
Iscariot , went unto thc chief
priests and said unto them ; 'V hat
will you give mc and I will deliver -
liver him unto you ? And they
covenanted with him for thirty
pieces of sih"cr. " Judas did not
promise thc high priests that hc
would become a convert to their
way of thinking. . I-Ic did not 1.
, . .t
promise them that hc would renounce - '
nOt1J1CC thc teaching of thc Christ ;
hc merely stipulated that for a
very trifling reward hc would betray - _
tray his master unto the hands -I.
of. his encmics. From the very
inception of his treacherous idea
down to its consummation , Judas
.
furnished a perfect model for all
thc renegades that have come
'aftcr him. How often have nice , -
followed ; his example in every dc-
tail when they went to the cnc-
mics of their country , their poetical - !
ica1 party or their church , and ' 1
said , \Yhat will you give mc and
Ii
I will dclvcr all into your II
hands ? " In political parties have !
thc renegades , been especially ) ) ' J ,
"
active and , eliminating thc sacred '
element from thc paralle1' the
lengths to which they will g.o
and thc means to which they will
resort , arc scarcely less infamous -
than those of their notorious ' .
model. Instances are too fresh
in thc minds of Richardson county . t
people to need specific illusion. t
Then a republican goes to the
'
chief priests of democracy and
says " \Vhat will you give mc , ,
and I will deliver my , party unto , !
your hands , ? " hc becomes a renc- ' . : r
geHlc-an apostate from thc faith. I
'T ' hey may covenant with him for
thirty pieces of silver or thc sal- .
ary attached to an official 1 posi- ' ' \ - ( . J
tion , it matters not. l'he ' harm
that such a man does his party is . . _
ob\ " ous. Hc not only gives aid . . . . , : :
and comfort to the enemy , but
dcmora1izcs to certain extent , his . '
own party as well ; for many of
the faithful , seeing thai thc betrayal - . ; ' . ' : < :
trayal has been made , arc ' constrained -
strained as were thc apostles , to
forsake thc party and to flee In
thc Christian world today , there
is no name that is spoken with
more contempt than that of
Judas Iscariot and in thc politi ' . . ,
cal worM I there should be no . - "
name more abhorred than that of
the apostate who betrays his ' 1 " 'l , :
;
party and claims his reward from " . " - , , ' > t ;
' \ . " .
thc high priests of thc cnCl11 , - . .
' ' "
But here thc comparison between - : ,
:
twecn Judas and the political ren- J" , . .
cgadc ends. Judas repented ; apolitical _ .
political renegade never docs.
Judas gave back the money ; the
political renegade keeps it. Judas -
das ranged } himself ; the political
rcncgadc is not so accommoc1a (
ing. He continues to live , move
and have his being and if he will
not riel thc party of himself , thc
party must rid itself of him. Let
.
thc party appropriate thirty \ '
pieces of silver , or , as much thereof - .
of as is ncccssary to buy some
place away Gut in thc dreary
wastes of oblivion , a potters field 1
wherein to bury him , politically ]
spcaking.
