State Control Over Corporate Land

"The legislature under the general

The only trouble with this state
ment is that it is not true. But the
writer was in need of Il foundation for
the absurd and dishonest policy to-
ward The land and cattle companies
that lie was about to put forth, and
hence manufactured the above for the
occasion, and then proceeds to say
further:

at appears that the legl ,lsture may
at any time eliminate from the land question

from tile presence OF chartered land compa-

And therefore the writer concludes
that IL is useless for the Eighteenth
legislature to go over the whole ground
of land legislation The doctor has
diagnosed the case, ascertained the
evil, and prescribed the remedy. The
disease is chartered land and cattle

Adding to the Pension List.

Demagogery stands well with the
present congress. The Soldier vote"
is strong element in the Northern
states, and bills without number are
brought before congress increasing and
extending pensions. Weare now pay
ing out $G4,GC0,0O year to pension
suckers, one-fourth of which amount
is declared by the commissioners of
pensions TO be drawn fraudulently,
Now bill is introduced i'm congress to
pension all soldiers of the war who
have attained the age of fiftyiive. As
this would probably include half the
soldiers of he war, the addition to the
pension list will be enormous, prob
ably doubling it The bill will hardly
become law, and it is not likely that
its author contcmplates better fate
for 1t than TO be smothered in COM
mittee. He introduces the bill and
will make a buncombe speech, extol-
ling in set phrase "lhe sacrifices of our
noble soldier boys" and in the iiext
campaign will pirate of his efforts for
the good of the soldiers and ask sheir
votes for reelection. Sensible and
patriotic, self-respectiDg soldiers will
take sLch demagogues at their true
worth. 1t is well enough to provide
for the support of men wounded or
disabled in the war, and therefore un-
oble to maintain themselves; but when
the disposition to "tafiy" the soldier
element il shown il is time to sit down
on the demagogues.
The surplus Of one or two hundred
millions in the treasury is great
temptation to all such bills as this.
Democrats cannot serve the country
better than by standing between the
treasury and all such raiders.
