A Ridiculous Myth.
and at once.

The New York Times says: 1t is an insult
to human intelligence to ask any man to accept
as history this ridiculous myth. We never had
any civil war. Intelligent men do not fight
for four years and finally conquer their foes,
only to throw away all the fruits of victory and
to beg the vanquished to come and rule over
them The American civil war deserves to be
classed with the Trojan war, and it is quite
possible that the former is merely variation of
the latter and older legend.

1t is to the interest of the claim agent that

ion is worth fully as much as that of clerk in

justice.
Ii the course recommended by the Commits,
sioner should be the law, then, indeed. YOU
might expect the pension claimants to be delib
erately robbed. Then all cases of all sorts
would be taken for the preliminary fee. and
without examination. Then, instead of a class
OF men who make this law and its practice their
study, every shyster who could get hold Of am
alleged claim would start it for the sake Of the
fee
Again, the Commissioner says Many of
whom [claim agents have been detected in at
tempting to defraud both the Government and
their clients, thus subjecting them as class to
a measure Of suspicion
Does Mr.. Bentley mean to lmpugn the G rae
ter of all persons who act as pension ATTORNEYS !?
He will hardly venture so rash an assertion
ct, II he does not SO mean, he had no right to
use such sweeping statements And yet. in
grave official communication, the Commissioner
ventures to sandera body of men-to slur their
good name and fame as one of the reasons
why he cannot believe what is shown to him by
unquestioned legal evidence 1t is very disin-
genuous, and shows the straits to which he
must have been reduced
So, too, in pursuit of the same object. he can
not resist the temptation TO charge another large
class with neglect OF sworn duty, and with con
nlvlng at and taking part in impositions uljon
the United States Now the medical profes-
sion, as rule is one Of high honor and these
examiners or examining surgeons are the select
ones, chosen by the Commissioner himself Yet
he does not hesitate to charge them with gross
deseliction Of duty, of yielding to local infu-
ences OF base and personal character and Of
being willing parties to the grand conspiracy
which his jaundiced imagination has detected
against the peace and dignity of the Pension
Otflce and the purse of the nation
And all this array of insinuations is merely
the base from which he moves forward to repeat
again his grand panacea for all ills-the crea-
tion Of an ambulatory body of select appointees,
whose duty it shall be to throw every obstacle
IN the way of all claims, just and unjust.
We have in previous numbers dwelt sufi-
