Soldiers Of 1914,
To the Honorable, the Congress Of the Uuited

To the Honorable, the Congress Of the Uuited
States
We the undersigned, soldiers of the
war OF 1912, would respectfully represent
to your honorable body that, although we
stood by our country and its glorious
flag in the hour whenits friends were few
and when it cost ssmething to stand by the
flag of Liberty, yet while all other classes
of soldiers Of the Republic have been very
generously remembered, especially those
of the Revolution and of the late war
from which we have just emerged, wehave
been comparatively ignored, not only in
having QUA wages cut dSwn three dollars
per month while in the service but ever
since.
We, therefore, the undersigned, repre-
senting the thinned ranks of the great
army that saved the nation in one Of it's
darkest and most trying hours at time
when our beloved country needed friends
knowing that the soldiers of the Revolu-
ton and their widows were pensioned for
the gallant services which they rendered
their country, and from that precedent and
because it is simple Justice, which would
long since have been accoded to US, had
it not been for the great war from which
we have so lately emerged-we ask your
humble body to pass law to grant life
pension to such of our members as still
remain, or to their widows and we feel
that this would be but small pittance
which this great free Government could
grant without loss or Inconvenience, now
in its hour of great success and progress
in the high road to Liberty and Peace.

Y
tive, 1869.
1t is with pleasure that we again call the
attention of our readers to the coming pro-
fessional visit to Ripon, of DR.. V. Clarence
Prize. For eight years has DR.. Price made
his regular visits here, and but once has he
missed an appointment, and that from cir
cumstances over which he had no control.
His success in the treatment of chronic dis
eases is without parallel, and he is always
prompt, reliable and gentiemanly. He has
proved himself benefactor to thousands of
afflicted persons, and no printer, hotel-keeper
or other person can mourn over unpaid bills
on his account-he pays every bill promptly,
honorably and to the uttermost farthing.
Every person afflicted with chronic disease
should call and consult DR.. Price on his next
visit at the Halliday House, Saturday, the
5th of March.
