sweep at girls rules. The only game
lost was at Milton. playing boys rules

ed up 90 points in four games. while
their opponents were securing 81. and
% Of these were points made on fouls
But Il points have been scored against
the guards in four games, an average
Of less than two field goals to the
game.
The nigh school girls threaten tc
MARI this splendid record and may
succeed on their own floor, which has
an extremely low ceiling, but the fast
forwards on the academy team say
that they will be scoring some points
themselves while this is going on
Academy has played all its games or
strange floors and this handicap vii
not be so great as usual.
Both teams have had a good res
and are in fine form. An effort is be
ing made to secure impartial off cials

Is There a Postal Deficit ?


1t should be borne in mind that what
President Taft calls the deficit in the
Post-Ofiice Department is not real.
The Post-Office is earning a large sur
plus profit on the business it carries
on for its patrons. Even if all pub
fishers and private individuals and firms
withdraw their business from the
Post-Office Department, the govern
ment would still have its own large
distribution of letters and printed mat
ter to make for Congress, for the
departments at Washington, and for
the official business of several hundred
thousand people constituting the civil
and military services Of the United
States. 1t would probably have to pay
from seventy-fve to hundred million
dollars year to carry on its own
postal business. Yet the books of
the Post-Ofice Department do not
make any account whatsoever Of this
vast item. 1t is safe to say that there
is no other government in the world
whose postal department is not credited
with the expense it occurs for handling
the business Of the other departments.
1t is a scandal and public disgrace
that business should be done 50 loosely
at Washington, that no post-ofice
records are allowed to show what it
actually costs to distribute the speech
es Of congressman, the documents sent
out from the Agricultural and other
departments, and the millions Of let
tiers relating to government business.
1t is just as much matter of gov
| eminent expense to transport official
documents IS to transport troops. The
War Department makes record Of the
cost of transporting troops, but no
reports Of the Post-Of Department
indicate the cost Of carrying the Gov
ernment's own materials. From 1.-THE

Pulled Out Horses Tongue.

Dodgeville Chronicle
Hobert Stowell and J. H. Finney of
Lone Rock were brought here last Fri
day and tried before Justice T. H.
Arthur on a charge of cruelty to ami
mails and were fined $25 and costs, each
amounting to 1885, or go days in the
county jail.
The defendants pleaded not guilty.
The case was prosecuted by the district
attorney, j. P. Smoker, ard verdict
as above was rendered by the Justice.
The evidence in the case brought out
the facts that the two defendants, with
others, were in a party who were NOV
ing some household goods from Lone
Rock to Avoca and when about a mile
this side of the Lone Rock bridge one
of the horses baked. The men tried
several ways to start the animal ant
finally took a rope from a hand sleigh,
which was on one of the loads, and
fastened it around the horses tongue
and the two men took hold of the rope
and pulled hard enough to loosen the
tongue at the roots. When the men
stopped pulling, the tongue dropped
out of the animal mouth several inches
and thereafter it could not eat and in
two or three days was ordered killed
by a veterinarian. We understand the
men paid their fine.
