The New Pension Bill.
The Washington States saws:


The passage of the new pension bill in the
House on the 23d inst, by the decisive vote
of 100 to 73, renders its defeat in the Senate
a matter of great doubt The chances are
more than even of its becoming law. The
Presidents veto has been confidently pre-
dicted, but we believe on no satisfactory
authority. Should it pass, there will be an
annual drain on the Treasury-forhidding
at once all hope of getting on under the pre-
sent tariff. The bill gives pensions to all
survivors who served for sixty days, or were
engaged in actual battle in the war of 1912,
or in any war or battle fought by the United
States with the Indians previous to or dur
ing that war. The act extends to both land
and naval forces, and where the party does
not live, his widow comes in for the benefits.
The pensions are graduated as follows: To
those who served IL months or more, S96
per annum; those who served three months
or more, $75; and those who. served three
months or more than go days, $50 per an
mum. 1t is provided that the pensions
commence from the first day of the present
Congress, and continue through life.
Whatever of credit attaches to this bill for
further depicting an empty treasury is just
ly due, in a great measure, to the Hon. Mr..
Savage, of Tennessee, with whom the bill
originated, and whose exertions inits behalf
have been constant, Jealous, persevering, and
persistent.

ISvALIDs RE5oICE.-A new era il taking
place in the science of medicine. The time
has come when the worst and most appall-
ing cases of disease can be cured. New
discoveries are being made in the medicinal
agents employed, as well as in tho art of
combining and preparing them. Four
years trial has fully established the fact
that DR.. Easterly's Family medicines are the
best and most certain curatives known for
the diseases for which they are recommend
ed. Every family should keep supply on
hand, and thereby save doctors bills and
much suffering. DIR. Easterly's Iodine and
Sarsaparilla, DR.. Carriers Cough Balsam,
DR.. Easterly's Fever and Ague Killer, Dr.
Hooper's Female Cordial and DR.. Bakers
Specific are all meeting with rapid sale
and are universally approved. Over One
Hundred Thousand Dollars of these popular
articles have been sold within the last two
years. See the advertisements in our col
umns.
