THE remains of the late Mrs. Margaret San
derson who died in New York on Sunday last,
have been removed to Baltimore for inter-
ment. Mrs. Sanderson was the wife of the
late Col. Henry S. Sanderson. When young
girl living in Baltimore, she made the histori-
cal flag that floated over Fort McHenry during
the bombardment, and which inspired Francis
Scott Key to write the "Star Spangled Ban
ner" Mrs Sanderson was in the eighty-ffth
year of her age and had been living in New
York with her son. Her husband, Col. San
derson, is buried in Baltimore Cemetery. The
flag of Fort McHenry remained in her posses
sion up to the time of her death, having been

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:

much proof in his pension case, while others
have their claims allowed on very slender proof.

sioner aud his associates great injustice. /

no one could be more courteous in answering
the inquiries made in relation to the claims OF
pensioners than Comradc W. ". Dudley l
believe him to be a conscientious officer, and
endeavors to do justice both to the Government
and the pensioncr II is too often the case that
soldiers complain by listening to the advice OF
some chance office seeker, who perhaps is jeai-
Gus of the popularity of such men as Wv.
Dudley, John y Logan, Andrew Curtin, and
more of that kind, who are the true friends of
the soldier; and l am glad that your paper has
the true ring, and tells the soldiers who are

REVENUE REDUCTIONs-THE SOLDIERS DUTY.
To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
The internal revenue bill Will. we hope, be
laid over until Congress reassemblies in De
cembor next. when they will have time to
reflect upon its results What object could
Congress have in passing such measure? 1t
would neither benefit the people or the Gov
ernmcnt and the revenue laws should he let
alone The passage of the bill would not po-
litically benefit any party, and We think our
objections to the passage Of such measure at
the present time viii be concurred in by a large
majority of the citizens of the United States.
1t would materially iniure the ex-soldier and
sailor in the adjustment of their just claims
against the Government. ! think IT Is the
duty of every cx-soldier and sailor Of the late
war to look after and boldly defend their
claims at the ballot-bOx. If you, fellow
soldiers, wish 20 keep posted in regard to the
proper course to pursue, you should subscribe
Gf YOU have not for The NATIONAL TRIBUNE,
the abIest and best conducted soldiers paper IN
the United States 1t does not hesitate to at
tack any measure that is brought before Con-
s,ress that would in any way afioct the interests
of the Nation defenders. Then, felow-soldiers,
aid THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE. Get up clubs
in every township, county, and State The
soldier element, if properly organized, would
be a mighty power. Wake up, comrades, and
look to your interests! Every additional sub
scriber adds to the power and influence of the
paper May it increase in power until justice
and equity is fully measured out to the Nations
defenders and to their widows and orphans.

HARDsHIPs OF PENSION CLAIMANTS.
To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
While your numerous readers are pouring in
complaints about the neglected soldiers all over
the United States and our "silz-hat and kid
glove brigade" as c. w Ransom has very ap-
propriate!y named them, let me tell you about
two x-soldiers-two noble bOys-that wore the
blue aud were residents Of this county for
some time before the grim monster death -
called them home
\. II. Dillon, Of Sycamore Springs, Butler
county, died June :. His death was caused by
gun-shot wound which he received during
the war. He was a member Of the Seventh
Wisconsin infantry, and had charge of Z" Old
Abe" the noted eagle carried during the war
by that regiment. He commenced immedi-
ately afteP the war to prosecute his pension
claim, and went through the routine Of proof
five different times, and died without his pen
sion at last.
Jesse Y. Smith, of Plum Grove Township,
who has been subject to fits for years, some
times having, it is said, as many as fifteen in a
day, was adjudged insane by the probate court
June %. He was placed in charge of the sher-
if, TO be sent to the insane asylum at Osawato-
| ME, but died at FIVE o'clock, June %. His
trouble was caused by bullet, which struck
him in the head while Federal soldier in the
performance Of his duty. For shame, be it
! said, that though lie and his friends have tried
repeatedly TO secure an increase Of pension,
owing to his extremely unfortunate condition,
he received but the pitiful sum of 81 Il month.
He gave more than his life for the Government,
and was deserving of far better treatment.
Jesse Y. Smith was born in Armstrong county,
Pa, December l, lSi9; he enlisted in the Union
army IN July, 1861, and served three years; he
was in some Of the most terrific battles OF
the war; was wounded in the action at Nal
vern Hill; was also wounded at Gettysburg by
a fragment of a shell, which crushed III por-
tion of his skull. 1t was to this wound that

THE HAMPTON SOLDIERS, HOME


On Monday in the House of Representatives
resolution was offered by Mr.. Browne, Of
Indiana, providing for an investigation Of the
Soldiers Home at Hampton, Va. The resolu-
ti0n if proceeded by preamble, in which the
following among other charges, are cited as
having been made by inmates of the Home
against Governor P. T. WOodfin First, that
during the last four years the said Woodfin,
governor and treasurer of the said Home, has
retained and withheld from pensioners, pen
sion money paid him in trust for the pension
ers under him, contrary to, and in violation OF
the laws of the United States Second, that
the said Woodfin does not permit inmates OF
the Home who are fully competent, willing
and deserving, to fill and receive compensation
therefor the principal positions of honor and
trust at the Home, but employees persons not
inmates, thus depriving the inmates of the
benefits af the vrates they might earn. Third,
that the said Woodfn diverts to himself and his
chosen friends, who visit him, the property
and effects of the Home. Fourth,
that the said Woodfn has reduced the status
of the inmates of said home to that of prisoners
held for crime . The citations in the
preamble also charge that WoOdfn makes
distinction between inmates who are non-pen-
sioners and those who are pensioners; that 1t
is almost impossible for pension inmates to
secure their money after it reaches his hands;
that he issues wooden chips i'll lieu OF pension
money, and that said chips are only receivable
at the Home store and beer saloon, where eX-
orbitant prices are charged, and that he is vile,
abusive and overbearing in his manner. The
resolution directs the Committee on Military
Affairs to examine into the management of the
Home, and report the result Of such investiga-
ton as soon as practicable.
