OFFICIAL PATRIOTISM ANDSEI.r.

OFFICIAL PATRIOTISM ANDSE
DENIAL.-IOwa has been SO un.
fortunate as to present n laudable
example to the country, In the
proceedings of her Presidential
Electors. Having met on the day
prescribed by law, and cast their
ballots for Grant and Wilson.they
were confronted by grave diff
Guilty in the fact that so MANY of
their number wanted the honor
of and profit of carrying the vote
to Washington but they finally
surmounted it by drawing lots.
There was nothing particularly
worthy of emulation thus far, but
when they came to fix the COM
pensation due them for their SER
vices, these electors proved them-
selves very different from ordi-
nary officials. The law allows
them the same pay as members of
the Legislature, which in Iowa is
five hundred dollars per session,
and each elector might have pork-
eted this amount. But they con-
cluded that it was more than their
services were worth, and they de-
cided to take only five dollars for
each one of the few days occupied
IN the discharge of their duties.
We fear that it will be hard to
find a companion to this picture
OF official self-denial.

there is any object in detecting it's

How to Pick a Game Rooster.

A youngster in Muskugum County,
Ohio, thought he would like a game
rooster so he wrote to the editor of the
Courier for information as to how to select
pure blooded one. Here is what the
editor says about it:
"Joe S. writes from Blue Rock and
asks us to tell him how to pick a good
game rooster We are not certain that
we are the most proper person in the
world to apply to for such information,
never having picked one. However, we
are no towards, so here goes. In the first
place catch the game rooster, either by
running him down yourself, or by hiring
a small boy to do it for you. Next, IF
you have had no experience in wringlng
necks, and you don't seem to have had
any)-next, with the left hand take him
by the legs and carry him to the wood
pile, and after procuring an ak, gently
press his craw against a log, near the
top. This is critical moment The
rooster will begin to have confidence in
you by this time, if you have handled
him carefully, and will stretch out his
neck to know what it all means Then's
your time. Let the ak fall, edge down,
so as to strike about two inches back Of
the comb, and at the same time letting 90
your hold on your bird. He'll flop some,
but don't mind that. The next thing to
do is to heat a couple of gallons of water,
scalding hot, take it to some convenient,
out of-the- way place, get the rooster,
plunge him in head first a time or two,
then take his legs in your left'hand so the
spurs will be above your thumb and fore
finger, elevate him on a level with your
face, catch hold of the saturated plumage
with the right hand, the same as if you
were going to peel elm bark and-then
pull. You'll pick him, you bet. At least
we have never seen one that could not be
picked in that way"

The Postmaster General has decided that
families, firms, or com panies cannot combine

The following explanation accompanied
the bank statement of January l: ''The large
excess of national expenditures over the re-
ceipts during the past month, amounting to
over 81 900, is partially accounted for by
the fact that the bank tax of S., 600, 900,
which was paid during December, does not
appear in course of business in the receipts
for that month. When the accounts are
