subscriber will profit by this suggestion.
SAMUEL CLARK, CoyrGToN, OHIO.-Send
us the dates of both cnlistments and discharges
your rank, company, and regiment, and we
may be able to help you.
JAMES ADAMS, ORANGE N J.-You were
entitled to one hundred dollars additional
bounty, but at present cannot recover; because
you failed to file your claim prior to July /,
1880. There is reason to believe that Congress
will remove the bar which prevents the cOnsd-
Grafton of these just claims, and when it does
we will notify you.
X, CANTON, PA-Pension money, after be-
ing received by the pensioner andsdeposited in
bank, is liable to be garnisheed the same as
money earned by labor, &c. See Senator Blairs
bill in this connection, copied in our last weeks
issue.
SUB, CAMBRIDGE, n. Y.-Under the act of
June 10, 1873, the attorney may collect his fee
in advance, in whole or III part, without re-
gard to whether he be finally successful in the
case. There is no law to prevent his collecting
the fee before the claim is filed, but the prac-
tice is to file the declaration first. The sooner
the application is filed the better Failure to
file declaration prior to July /, 1880, dcprives
you of arrears and leaves you with no redress.
ABBIE L. D., HAMMoNToN.-We presume
from your statement, that your HUSBAND was
not in the line of duty at the time he was shot,
and for that reason his claim was rejected by
the Pension Office. Your only recourse is Con-
gress, and even there we can see little hope for
you.
A. S. c., LOWELL, MAss.-We believe the
firm named is dissolved. The pension would
date from discharge.
w. H. SAMUELs.-There is bill that has
already passed the House, which, if it become
a law, will cover your case and afford relief.
See THE TRIBUNE of the 18th inst.
G. L. H., SAN SIMEON, CAL.-The last num-
Der given to original invalid claims, filed prior
to July /, 1850, was 257,O73; widows claims
238,OS2.

UNE Of April 20, 1882. :. To the Secretary of
the interior, as soon rs possible. 3. Your hand
writing is fair, and gaod enough for the position
desired. You should get all the influence OBJ
tainable.
II. c. BRowN.-Your case ought to have been
decided lcng ago; that is, provided you have
complied with all the calls OF ne Office.
VIC. GREEN.-No; the mothers claim can
not be completed by the heirs, except they de-
sire to reimburse themselves for expenses of
last sickness and burial Of decedent, in cases
where sufficient assets were not left to meet
such expenses.

LET FULL JUSTICE BE DONE.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
To provide speedily for the MANNED, injured
and the blind defenders of a country like ours
would be the noblcst work our lawmakers
could perform. Senators and Representatives
what would your work amount to, but for such
heroes as we can name and number by the
thousands and who now are suffering for what
Government owes them. The force in the
Pension Bureau must be enlarged. Don't let
this noble cause, this honest object, this Chris
tian act of alleviating the wants of the poor,
disabled soldier be longer delayed. You have
been magnanmous in passing laws; see to 1t
that they are speedily carried out. The cut
ting off of applicants in 1850 is an uni ust and
outrageous act. Every claimant must prove
active service, in line of duty. Men who have
struggled with life injuries, and poverty these
twenty years, hoping either to make a living
or to meet death in worthy and patriotic way,
without the aid of the Government, have been,
however not merely four or five years, but
what remains to them Of flesh and bones have
been standing monuments of heroism for
twenty-five years. Do you propose to cut off
such men? Let Congress blot out this stigma
Of disgrace from the records. Give those who
suffered most and longest an equal, if not a
better, benefit, and honor those first and fore
most to whom honor is most due-the poor,
disabled felow-comrades of the blue.
Respectfully yours, JOHN G. OULsoN.

KEEPING AN EYE ON CONGRESS.
To the Editor NATIONAL TRrBUNE:

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
Let every soldier who braved the dangers of
battle and diseases of camp life, whether en-
feebled by disease or not, keep watchful eye
on the members of Congress and their legisla-
ton, and remember the names OF each and
every one of them, whatever their politics, who
are swift to legiSlatc in favor ofthe bondholder
and others high in station, and slow to give the
poor soldier the just and equal legislation that
is due him as part of his contract, made with
the Government twenty-one years ago, and let
it be guide to him as to whom his vote shall
be given when another is to be elected. Let
him also see that himself and his friends vote
for the Representative only who is as willing
to give the soldier his rights and just dues.
Remember, brother soldier, you have a duty to
perform in this work. Let not false promises
lure us on to do ourselves injustice by allowing
onesded politicians to occupy seats in our
legislative halls. CIAs. EMORY.
