TIE BOUNTY QuEsr1oN.-By reference to
proceedings Of the Board Of Supervisors in
another column it will be seen that that
body has decided that the county shall be
taxed to pay the sum Of $50 to each vol
unteer to fill the existing call for more men.
We entertain no doubt Of the popularity Of
Of this measure II the question were to be
brought before the people Of the county to-
morrow their decision would be in "a
vor Of paying the bounty by = large
majority. 1t is always well to avoid debt
but debt has got to be incurred to clear
this county from the draft, and as Ill are
deeply interested in avoiding the draft Why
should not al pay, and do SO in proportion
to their means. There may be some infor.
mality about the manner in which the meas
ure was passed, but Of its popularity We
make no doubt, and it will be conceded that
the people have the right to say what shall
be done in the premises.

CURRENCY WAR.-At the annual meeting
Of the Board Of Directors Of the Iowa State
Bank, at Iowa City, in November last, it
was resolved to provide for the redemption
Of the issues Of the branches Of that bank
1t some bank in Chicago. The other banks
have been nnxiously waiting to have this
resolution carried into effect, but have wait
ed in vain, and it is now announced, We
understand, that the arrangement has fallen
through entirely, and this calls forth the
notice Of the First National Bank, which
will be found in another column. The no.
tice means that on and after the day speci-
fed, that bank will receive on deposit none
but Treasury notes and National Bank
notes. The step is properly taken. If the
State banks will not provide for par re-
demption in Chicago, it is not to be expect
ed that they can be handled at par by other
banks, or that they should be entitled to
current circulation among business men.
The key to this non-action Of the State
Bank is this, as we believe: They are de.
termined-each and all-at an early day to
withdraw from the State Bank system and
60 into the National system. We noticed
few days since, that the Muscatine Branch
was about to do so, and since that time we
learn that the Burlington Branch--the hea-
West in the famly-is going to take the
same step. So will they oil.
The public will please pay particular at
tention to the "notice," and handle funds
accordingly.

GENERAL ORDEs No. 2.-Since the au-
thorities at Washington have seen 6t to dis
courage enlistments and encourage neglect
Of the same, the General Order issued by
Adiutant General Baker, which VIII be
found in another column, is very appropri-
atc indeed. Iowa has cxerted every nerve
to FIJI all acquisitions Of the President
promptly. Many Of the sub.districts Of
which she is composed, have not only filled
all orders previous to the last, but have also,
by extra exertion secure the enlistment Of
considerable number in the aggregate, be-
yond the amount called for, and to have it
declared that there shall be no credits made
for this excrtion and service rendered, IL not
calculated to create good state Of feeling
more especially when delinquent districts
are not required to furnish more. men pro
rata than those which have IN excess.
This, and other grievances enumerated in
the Order, render that document decidedly
OppOrtunc.
