Clark. Vice President Marshall said
that, in obedience to the Constitu-
ton and laws, the Senate and House
were in joint session for ascertaining
and counting the electoral votes in
the election for President and Vice

then called upon tellers previously
selected to come forward and Sena-
tors Kern, of Indiana, and Clapp, of
Minnesota, and Representative Ruck-
err, of Missouri and Mapes of Michi-
gan, took their places at the clerks
table, and the vote of the States an

HE STOPPED THE PAPER

A few days ago subscriber. who
is IA well known citizen, came to our
Office and stopped his paper for the
reason, he said, that it did not just
suit his fancy. We have since met
him on the street and it is amusing to
note the look of surprise on his face
that we are still in existence, despite
the fact that he stopped his paper.
Some day, and is won't be long either,
that gentleman will be no more. His
heart will be stilled forever. Neigh
bors and friends will follow his life
less clay to the silent city and lay
him to rest among silent flowers. An
obituary will be published in these
columns telling what good neighbor
and beloved citizen he was-which
the recording angel will overlook for
charity's sake-and in short time
he will be forgotten. AS he lies out
there in the cold. cold, graveyard,
wrapped in the silent slumbers of
death, he will never know the last
kind word spoken of him was by the
editor of the paper he spitefully
stopped" Did you ever pause for a
moment and think that your editor,
whoever he may be, will write your
obituary some day?-Meade County
Messenger.
