Annu;ties 70 Solliers and Their Widows

Attorney General Lear ha. addres sc the
following communication to Auditor General
Schell
ARRIsBURG, May IA, 1875 Wm. P.
ScheH, auditor General DEAR SIR: Yours
of the 9th inst in relation to the claim of
Jane M'Murray f or an annuity under the act
Of April 9, 1869, is received. That act does
not contain any condition that her annuity
shall cease when congress shall make provis-
ion for the soldiers of the war of 1912, and it
is not affected by the proviso in the act of
1868. Her right to. the annuity depends on
the act which was passed for her relief, and
prior legislation does not control it. The
proviso in the act of 1868, limiting the annu-
tiles to the time when congress should make
proviso for the class of pensioners described
in that act and the act of 1866, is applicable
only to the cases for which those acts pro-
vide, and not to such as are provided for by
special acts in which there are no conditions
or limitations,a and no proof required to estab-
lish the claims of the applicants to the gra-
tuities and annuities. And this is the case
with special acts passed prior to those of
1866 and 1868, as well as these passed sub
sequenty.
But l am of opinion that the act of March
%, 1877, applies to all soldiers Of the war of
1912 and their widows who were drawing or
entitled to draw any pension, annuity or gra-
tuity. for services rendered by such soldiers,
and that the amount was thereby increased to
seventy-fve dollars, whether they had previ-
ously been provided for by general or special
laws. 1t seems proper construction of the
act, especially as any other construction would
produce inequality without any appa rent rea
son for it. And the acts passed at the pres
ent session of the legislature there have
been several Of them-for special cases in
variably make the sum seventy-fve dollars.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
GEORGE LEAR,
Attorney General.
Under this decision all soldiers of the war
of 1912, and their widows who have been
granted annuities by special acts of assembly
without any condition that the annuity shall
cease when congress shall make provisions for
the soldiers of the war of 1912. will be enti-
tied to receive their usual annuity of $75 in
the usual man ner.

The composition of the committee for the
Investigation of the Louisiana and FL orida
frauds is such as to encourage the faint hope
that the investigation will be conducted with
some measure of fairness and a great deal
of energy. The chairman, Mr.. Potter, stands
high in his party, and has done nothing,
until he introduced the resolution under
which the committee is appointed, to earn
any particular ill-will from the opposition.
He knows the louisiana situation thorough
ly, having served on the sapent committee
which gave birth to the Wheeler compro-
mise. Mr.. Morrison has also had so me ex-
perience in Louisiana, having gone over the
whole ground as Democratic investigator
during the winter following the last Presi-
dental election. Mr.. Hunton is one Of the
Oldest in continuous service Of the Southern
members, and has a sound judgment and &C.
knowledged ability as lawyer, qualifca-
tions which gave him place on the Electo-
raj Commission; he did not, however,
achieve any special distinction as member
of that august tribunal. Blackburn, McMa-
hon, Stenger aud Cobb stand well in the
House. Mr.. Blackburn is hot-headed but
fair minded, as partisans go, aud Judge
Cobb, new member, has one of the best
balanced minds in Congress. The appoint
ment of General Cox, of Ohio, insures the
representation of Mr.. Hayes, in the person
of one of his ablest aud best friends. The
imPlacable wing of the Republican party
have reason to be satisfied with General
Butler and Hiscock aud Reed are average
Republicans thrown in for good measure
On the whole, it is not easy to see how the
committee could be improved out of the ma
terial at hand, "visiting statesmen" being Of
course. ineligible.-Times.

A Wise Deacon,

"Deacon Wilder, | want you to tell me
how you kept yourself and family so well the
past season, when all the rest of us have
been sick so much and have had the doctors
running to US so long
"Bro. Taylor, the answer is very ea'v. |
used Hop Bitters in time and kept my flm-
ly well and saved large doctor bills. Three
dollars worth of it kept MS all well and able
to work all the time, and I'll warrant it has
cost you and most of the neighbors one to
two hundred dollars apiece to keep sick at tn,
same time. guess you'll take my medicine
hereafter" See other column.

Respited to Prepare for Death.

Dennis, alias "Bucky" Donnelly, who was
to have been hanged last Wednesday for
the murder of Thomas Sanger at Raven Run
September |, 1875, was respited on Tuesday
by Governor Hartranlt for twenty days. The
respite was obtained by Father Gallagher
pastor of the Catholic church at Pottsville,
and was asked for and granted on the ground
that Donnelly had not been allowed sutfi-
cient time to prepare for death. Father
Gallagher communicated the news of the
Governors respite to Donnelly, but as he is
a man of iron nerve and had made up his
mind for the worst, he manifested no emo
ton, and it is the opinion of his keeper that
he (Donnelly) is actually sorry that his ex-
ecution has been postponed.

f. f. ORvIs.

We seize this opportunity to correct any
msstatements we have male concerning
Mr.. Orvis' party. We are accused of mis-
representing A. G. Smith, and our corr es
pondent says our statement is "wholly un-
true" Let us see The Philadelphia Times
of the 9th inst, in speaking ofthe resolutions
offered, says, that at half past one o'clock on
that morning "Mr. Kilgore came to the front
and read the report of the committee on res
olutions from the stage"
"1lr. Smith, Of Columbia, m0ped to sub stitue
tie platform of Toledo Convention, because he
did not aoant to go back to his people and say
that he had been in a convention aehich adopted
such lot of nonsense. Mr.. Smith drew upon
himself the hisses of the Luserne and Phila-
deiphia men 1hen he said the platform COM
mended itself only tOa mob"
The resolutions, it appears, were not
adopted as the platform of the party, but
the convention seeing the probability OF their
adoption from the indications, succeeded in
getting an adjournment and thus cut them
off. OF this the Times says
"They made most fortunate escape from
a rampant Communistic platform by forcing
an adjournment at two o'clock in the morn
ing, after the nominations had been complet.
ed, for the feversh condition of the conven-
tion was then well calculated to make it ac-
cept the aggrarian vagaries of the majority
| report of the committee on resolutions"
The platform that was adopted on Thurs
day morning was put through as the report
of the minority of the committee on reso-
lutions, and the attendance of delegates was
not full by any means.
In regard to Mr. Smiths speech the Scran-
ton Republican says he made an apology on
Thursday morning for the language used
on the previous evening, Why this apology,
if he said nothing not in harmony with the
| feelings Of the convention?
Our only error, then, was in saying that
the communstic resolutions were adopted,
instead Of saying that their adoption was
prevented by an adjournment 1t was OF
these resolutions that Mr.. Smith said what
our correspondent declares he did not say al
all.
We are informed that 'the platform had
been carefully prepared before the conven-
ton commenced its sessions, and was un,
animously adopted in substantially the SAINT
form in which it was at first prepared"
so, why the following;
"Mr. President Hughes offered the dis
couraging information that the committee on
resolutions had been in session long enough
to read over some of the ready-made plat
forms and satisfy themselves that it wouldn
be possible for them to report at the session
then being held" And why did the ma
jority of the committee report the resolu
tions of the Philadelphia delegation, whel
the convention was SO unanimously agains
themi
As TO whether there was any communism
in the conyention,w I'VE have already answered
Me Philadelphia papers almost without ex
ception characterize the resolutions frs
offered by the committee, as of that characte
and the resolutions show il for themselves
! and yet our correspondent says that no sue
an idea was uttered by resolution or other
wise.

The less Secretary Sherman has to say in
defense of the Louisiana frauds and in de-
nunciation of the Congressional inquiry, the
better for him. Mr.. Sherman's assurance
that there was no fraud carries no weight
whatever. 1t is simply the plea of not gull
ty which he is expected to make, and wheth-
er this plea be finally accepted or not, it is
wholly unnecessary for him to abuse the court
which is expected to try the ISSUE Mr.,
Sherman should have thought about "revolu-
ton" when he was in Louisiana in the winter
