One of the dyed-in-the-wool democrats who resides across the creek has a very smart parrot. He taught it to say “Hurrah for Hancock.” The bird yelled itatall hours of theday. Republican frieads ofthe owner were greeted with it whenever they drepped in, Frequently a republican would attempt—but unsuccessfully—to make the bird ecream for Garfield. It was always Hanceck. A day or two after the election two republicans were in chatting with their demo- cratic friend. Of course they twitted him about how the thing had gone. “Well,” he sald, “It does look as If wé might as well give it up.” The parrot yelled out: “You bet! Hurrah for Gaz. field.” Jesse Sarvis vouches for the truth of this story. REVENUE APPOINTMENTS.—W. H. Tainter anid J. H.C.
