The National tribune., 1879-02-01
The Equalization Bounty Bill.

The passage Of this bill is looked forward to by
thousands of soldiers means Of affording them
relief in poverty, and recognition of their patri
otic services. But the money due will not enter
your pockets unless you shall cooperate with those
laboring to secure the same end Our paper, THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE is the central organ of the sol
diers. Its influence is known and felt in Washing
ton and all over the country. It's most effective
blows will be struck in favor of the Equaliza-
ton Bounty Bill all soldiers anxious to see
pass. Subscribe for the paper, and you will 50
strengthen us that we confident then of getting
your ardent wishes accomplished
The National tribune., 1879-02-01
Compliments for our Clock.

From every quarter, we receive recognitions of
the beauty and value of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE''
clock.
DR.. T. Sturdevant, Millville N j. says:
81 received the little clock you sent me and am
very much pleased with it,
The postmaster of Mount Washington Nd
writes: 1t will take but few days for me to make
up my first club" and desires us to give him entire
control to canvass in his locality for the clock and
paper.
Mr.. II. A. Case, Troy, Pa, says
"Your clock came safe TO hand and is all right
1t keeps correct time runs to charm, and is really
neat and charming little timer
The National tribune., 1879-02-01

Patriotism Knows No Party.

We proud of our Congressman this winter
Be they republicans democrats or nationals
whatever politically is their creed they have made
antagonisms against the interests of the soldier
Congressman, like all other men wishing political
position, desirous doubt, of keeping in good
odor with the voters of the country, (and the sol
diers would turn the scale in any controversy but
sincerely believe and in the future (particu
larly if soldiers will exercise as to whether an
aspirant is for or against them) our Legislators will
be disposed to grant all fair and honest claims which
the soldiers demand.
The National tribune., 1879-02-01
Extra Pay to Mexican Veterans.

An act has passed the House of Representatives
and also the Senate, amended, from whence it goes
back to the House for ratification, granting three
months extra pay to soldiers who served out the
term of their engagement, or were honorably dis
charged provided said pay has not already been
ceived.
This act also includes officers, seamen, and ma
rines of the United States Navy.
We have scarce a doubt but that the two Houses
of Congress will agree, and that the bill will be
law before the close of the session
This number, as specimen copy, will be sent to
any address on receipt of one three cent postage
stamp.

EMr. JAMES WATSON, who

ETMr. JAMES WATSON, who is re-
corded as voting for the law, on its final
passage, to tax every farmer who owns
a dog 81, tried to defend himself on the
lst inst, before squad of his PoMERoY
faction, by denying that he voted for the
bill on its passage.
We informed Mr.. WATSON that we
stood upon the official record, made up
by the Clerk OF the Legislature, and that
he would have to do the same until he
could establish different record. His
denial amounts to nothing. Nine men
in every ten condemned to be hung, de-
ny their guilt to the last breath, when the
Official record proves their guilt beyond
a doubt. The record is what men go
by, and denials, when men discover that
a mistake has been made that is calcula-
ted to damage them politically, don't
amount to the breath required to make
them. No, no, Mr.. WATSON; stand right
up to your official record made while a
Member Of the Legislature until you
can, by the same, or some other compe-
tent authority, establish different one
equally as good.

A Monster Time-Piece.

The large clock at the English House
Of Parliament is the largest one in the
world. The four diais Of this clock are
twenty-five feet in, diameter, Every half
minute the point Of the minute, hand
moves nearly seven inches. The clock
will 60 eight and half days, but will
only STRIFE seven and half, thus indica-
ling any neglect in windingit up. The
mere winding up Of the striking appara-
tus takes two hours. The pendulum is
fifteen feet long, the wheels are of cast
iron; the hour bell is eight feet high,
and nine feet in diameter, weighing near.
ly fifteen tons, and the hammer alone
weighs more than four hundred pounds.
This clock strikes the quarter hours, and
by ils strokes the shorthand reporters
regulate their labors. AT every stroke
a new reporter takes the place ofthe
old one, whilst the first retires to write
out the notes that he has taken during
the Previous fifteen minutes. t.s..s. = :. :

A Few Hints for Horse Trainers.

Never try to beat a colt into doing a
thing. for if nervous be may turn out a
vicious horse, and if stupid he may be-
come. stubborn. Remember that by pa
thence and gentleness be can be got to
do any thing that will not hurt him.
When the horse shows signs of shying
at an object, do not beat him, but lead
him up to it, allowing bin to stand and
look IS he comes closer, and after he ex-
amines it few times he will not fear any
thing Of the kind again. In passing by
hedges with colt, throw in stones and
stop him until he takes no notice Of the
noise. f' a''e
Before putting on any article Of har-
ness let your colt smell it, and then rub
against bis head, neck and body,
Always start q horse with the voice,
never with the cut of the whip. Ii start
ing turn little to one side; in stopping
when going up a hill do the same. Nor

Every Republican knows that moth

~According to the Elko Indepen-
dent, William Sharon is candidate for
reelection to the United States Senate
from Nevada, and it is alleged that q
large majority of the State Senate who
hold over are In favor of gratifying the
millionaire's ambition. As Sharon can
hardly be called resident of Nevada,
and as be has almost wholly neglected his
official duties during the term which is no,
yet completed, it is difficult to see what
reason can be- presented for re-electing
him. The Independent says that "his
claim to further political honors can only
be based upon the amount of coin be will
disburse in order to secure them"

Fiz, Fizzle, Fizamagig.
Not drum was heard,
But several funeral notes
Were from about hundred members Of
the "BRIcK" PoMERoY faction who came
up here OF the 1st inst, to hear A. .SAUN-
DERs PIATr, the Reputation candidate for
Governor of Ohio, make a speech. Pr
ATT didn't come. -
About 3 3-o'cloek in the afternoon the
crowd, numbering 100, composed of
Democrats, Republicans and PoMERoY-
TIES, assembled in the court house, when
Mr.. H. j. BAKER Republican candidate
for Representative on the repudiation
county ticket, assumed perpendicular
position and fred away at some length
on the subject of officers taking less than
the law allows them for their services
But he did not inform his audienee that
1t was not proposed that be should take
less than $500 per session, if elected, the
amount allowed by law. Mr.. BAKER
closed by saying: .'If this Greenback
party cannot obtain power by the ballot,
let US have it by the sword and bayonet." "
just at that point three boys lit out of
the court room and scampered down
stairs. One of them waved flag from
rent in the seat of his trowsers. They
were under the impression that the. next
war had commenced; but HENRY JACK
son sat down, after firing that squib,
much to the relief of his hearers. No
body hurt.
Mr.. JAMES WATSON next took the
floor and INDUCED in his old, orn-out,
hum-drum story about the bonds and
the amount Of money in circulation at
the close of the war. He actually in
formed the meeting that Gen. RICE, Dem
ocratic candidate for 1t. Governor, was
a Director of private bank but neg
lected to impart the information that. he,
too, was stockholder and Director of
private bank! He said a greenback dol
lar was worth dollar in Wheeling, and
asked the reason why. Because it was
backed up by the people of this country !!
Mr.. WATSON is not posted. 1t is worth
a dollar because it is redeemable in gold
because the Government has the gold
to redeem it whenever the demand is,
made. The currency he advocates is not
to be redeemable in anything, at any
time-it is not. proposed that it shall
have any basis, of redemption whatever,
and, if issued, would not be worth five
