The Indiana Senatorial QUESTION:

From the Indianapolis journal, Dec. 1911

did not benefit them much. 1t is said that
he visited Mr. Hendricks, who has asgum-

Union, n sort OF dictatorship OF the party,
and earnestly, even sbjeCly, begged for

he was willing to take any term at all, or

Daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, Va. [W. Va.]) 1859-1865, 1863-01-01

We are pleased to see that Congress is
turning its attention to the pay of the sol
diers. And the thing needed is not iu-
crease of pay, but promptuess OF pay. A
great many OF the regiments have not been
paid in four, five or more months. Now
We know very well when there is delay in
paying troops, it is not always the pny-
ma ter who is to blame We have known
Of many instances 10 which the paymNster
was ready aud waiting, but owing to the
neglect of the officers of the regiments to
whom the money was due, the rolls were
not prepared aud the payments could not
be made. But Mr.. Chase tells us explicit
~ TINT he has not been able TO furnish the
money as rapidly as it WAS needed for the
regular payment Of the troops.
Now we need waste no words in showing
that it is hut common justice that the men
80 forth to endure the hNrdsbipS and perils
of soldiers life, should be promptly pnid
the wages promised them. The men aud
their families have been subjected TO great
inconvenience. Perhaps the officers have
been iucommoded quite As much as the
prvatss, But i;Isamc ter Of high impor-
lance to the conteutment OF spirit, and
to the efficiency, of the soldier that he
should have his pay oflener. The men be-
come discontinued and dispirited, when
forced to go so long without the money
justly due them. They feel that they are
neglected by the Government That is
perfectly natural. 1t isto suppose human
natute something else than whatit is to be-
lieve that soldiers who thiuk themselves
neglected and uncared for, will be as vigi.
liant, faithful, enthusiastic as they would
otherwise be. 1t is therefore kind Of
military necessity to pay our men regular
ly, il we would keep them in the highest
efficiency. We trust that some plan may
be devised which will enable the Secretary
of the Treasury to furnish the pHymasters
in the army with funds rs they are needed
by the soldiers.

the vitals of loyal public Seutlmentto be
gradually eaten out, and we tske,no steps
to prevent it, By and by it will be too
late. The rebels began early and see now
their success. Our policy has been hu
initiating in the extreme. To-day we have
imprisoned men whom all the country
knew to be traitors, men like Marshal Kane,
of Baltimore, and Tomorrow we have ca
priciously released them. Their last con-
dition is worse than the FIRST. Witness the
defiant and insulting note that Kane wrote
when he was released. There seems to be
no great overwhelming purpose and en-.
ergy on the part of the government. Dis.
loyalty is trified with. To day it is bold
and outspoken here 10 this city and every.

becoming more SO. Public sentiment is
crumbling under the corroding policy that
permits such things. Loyal men sink IN.

resent the inroad Of waxing diSloyalty,

The true friends of the government, the
loyal papers everywhere sought with one
voice demand a change Of policy. Let
them cry out us the Southern rebels cried
out. for strong discipline. Let ;hem
demand that no where in any shape shall
