A Nebraska Papers Vigorous Reply to Attacks on
the Soldier.
From the Neigh {Neb) Republican,
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, published at Washing
ton, ID. c.. and, by the way a paper that every ex-
soldier of the Republic should read and patronize
gives extracts from the following leading papers,
viz the New York Sun, Cincinnati Commercial,
Boston Herald. Chicago Tribune, Philadelphia
New York Tribune, New York Herald Chicago
Times, Chicago Nes0s, and Albany Express, each of
which makes a thrust at ex-soders generally and
pensioners particularly. Some of these papers are
Republican and some are Democratic in politics,
but they agree perfectly when it comes to abusing
and surring the old soldiers whose services are no
longer needed by their masters, the bondholders,
who look upon every dollar expended in pensions
dollar taken from their inheritance. Even
General Grant, whose victories, for which he has
been honored above all Others were won through
the heroic courage OF the soldiers who fought his
battles more than by his skill as general, joins
with these blood-hounds. We believe that Grant
is judging these indiscriminate pensioners, he
terms them, by himself for he has surely been one
of the livlies indscrimfnate pensioners in America
and the war did not hurt him much; but while it is
q fact that no pension compensate the men
who have lost one or more limbs" is it not also a
fact that no pension can compensate the men who
lay in the trenches month after month through the
scorching heat of midsummer and the pitiless
cold OF mdwinter, (while Grant smoked his choice
cigars Ir comfortable quarters starved IN prison
pens or in any of the many ways incident to a SOL
diers duty in time of war; contracted disabilities
that have clung to them ever after, making their
very lives burdensorne? Is it, then. those only
who have lost limbs who cannot be compensatory ?
What shall be said of the tens of thousands who by
wounds and disease and exposure have been Grip
pied and enfeebled for life? General Grant is the
last man on earth from whom the pens iers of the
late war should receive such injustice The burden
of the song that these papers all sing is the enor-
nous expense " to the taxpayers of the country,
forgetting that their masters are, ever haze been,
expensive to taXpayers

Tho pension law was very properly equaliZed,
according the degree of disability after the
close of tire war, but without materially increasing
the expense of the list. A very prudent and rea-
sonable law also passed limiting the time in
which applications might be filed. This limit was
two or three times extended and finally abolished,
leaving the bars all down; and this was followed
by the arrears of pensions act" providing that all
pensions should be paid from the date of the SOL
diers discharge instead of from the time of filing
his application. This was putting premium upon
radng the Treasury, and the natural result has
been an avalanche of claims, the payment of which
has made pension list the largest in the world,
and saddled upon the people burden that would
arouse and alarm a nation less patient under taxes,
and bankrupt less wealthy in natural resources
The only remedy suggested is that Congress shall
enact that all claims filed in future shall be payable,
if allowed only from the date of the claim. 1t is
the lump sum- of the arrears-a small fortune to
most of the applicans-that temptS the cupidity of
agents and their drummed-up clients In addition
to this, the next Congress should erect Strong bar
riers against fraud, and the people should express
themselves in terms not to be misunderstood against
any further increase of this monstrous abuse"

vacate his chair some time before adjourn
ment, so that presiding officer may be elected.
If this is accomplished, one of the Senators
whose term extends over the next regular ses-
sion will be chosen president. and will become
acting Vice President of the United States
Senator Anthony was the Republican caucus
nominee two years ago. but as his term expires
on the 4th of March, and his office of acting
Vice President could not extend beyond the
limit of his senatorial term, he is effectually
barred, should no called session be held and
the place be filed before adjournment. There
are three candidates spoken of for the position.
They are Logan. Allison. and Ingalls, OF these
three, it is probable that ingalls, alone wants

FalsehOOds From Truth.
from The Ne,v York Ti1uth.1

OF all the many stupendous frauds perpetrated
upon patient people that of the present pension
system of the United States is the greatest. 1t pre-
sents million opportunities for the practice of
dishonesty, not only among the thousands of men
employed in eXpendng the vast sums appropriated
to this purpose but TO thousands of men who know
they not entitled to pension at all. There are
few readers of Truth who cannot give the name of
one or more OF their acquaintance who are draw
ing quarterly sum from Uncle Sam with uninter-
rupted regularity and who more entitled
thereto than Il Snakehead Indian. Many of these
men never knew there was anything wrong with
them until passage of the niquitous arrears
of pensions act. BY means OF siiltul and accommo-
dating pension solicitors and the uncertain and care
less memory ofoficers and prvates of facts transpir
ing fifteen twenty years ago, these men are en-
abled to prey upon the public and live without care
and labor The natural infirmties of age easily

The Pension Acts Solemn Contracts.
From The W1ferfo,r,, nv W Pen,EbIicuo

The pension acts were solemn contracts made by
the Government with the volunteers, to preserve
its existence. Hundreds of thousands died in its
defense. Thousands and thousands lost limbs,
were torn by shot shell, cut by sword or pierced
by bayonet, starved or broken down by disease and
exposure. All that is worth anything in this land
they saved. The Union, its peace and prosperity,
all that has to-day of power and strength of pro-
gress, of happiness and all that it may be in the
coming ages, owes its existence to the heroic
patriotism and noble selfsacrifice of the volunteer
Union soldiers. And yet these soldiers must be-
come paupers before the Government they served
can do anything for them? These men who lost
legs, arms and eyes to preserve this Government
must, II they have little proPerty-a little house
for their familiesuse 1t up and actually want for
the necessities of life before they entitled to
pension? What libel on all that is decent and
honorablei What an outrageous sentiment that
those who saved 1t all cannot have the contract
made with them honestly carried out until they are
on the road to the poor-house.

times, but in about f6hr minutes the body
ceased to swing and was apparently lifeless.
The body was allowed to hang about fifteen
minutes, when it was taken down and placed
onsa stretcher and carried to the hospital, where
it was examined by Dr. C. NJ. Ford surgeon of
the prison, and Doctors, Ensign, Notson and
Bliss, who found that the, neck had been broken.
The body was inferred by the side of Atzerodt,

Fifty Per Cent. Fraudulent.
I From the Illinois State Grange Ne,vs.

Among the evils of legislation is it not about time
beginning to notice that of the pension
fraud? Not that would, object to really just and
deserved pensions but if mistake not, fully one
half of the new pensions now being paid are un-
deserved in principle and many of which are OBJ
tanned by false and misleading pretensions. Several
within the limits of nay own acquaintance have OBJ
tanned pensions who were on no principle of law or
equity entitled to them, while Others / fully be-
lieye, got their hands in the Governmental purse
by means but little Short of perjury. Would like
to hear from others on this subject. A. rs.

Pensions Denounced as Tomfoolery.

From the Cape Ann (Mass.) Bultetin.I
There is pending before the House act to grant
pensions to the surviving soldiers, their widows
of the Mexican war The war was brief and the
numbers engaged in it were larger than those ot
1872. The Commissioner of Pensions estimates
that this will cost Sl02 1t is safe to call ii
anywhere from five to fifty times that amount, as
the results will doubtless show if the law is passed
Is 1t that Congress does not know what to do with
its surplus revenue that river and harbor bills and
pension bills, and funeral bills, and all sorts OF
tomtoolery bills have to be invented to dispose OF
the $50, 600 900 which accumulates yearly?

From The Hebron (Neb) Journal; FEB. 81

Hundreds of thousands of applications for pen
sons have been refused by the Commissioner of
Pensions, for want of proof and for manifest fraud
But in spite of the precautions used, vast is the
applicants and their agents it is estimated many
thousands are borne upon the pension rolls who
a greater rate than they are justly entitled to. If
proof were needed that frauds have been perpe-
trated in this respect it may be found in the numer
removals, arrests, and convictions of pension
agents and officers and convictions for perjury.

Year after year the pension list increases "a

third of that amount is what 1.-The exact
sum paid out yearly, likely to be needed in
future years" But the fact is, S00 0000 900 ap-
proprated at the last session of Congress, and it is
expected that the appropriated for the next
year will be somewhere between $1,000 900 and
$15000000. Under :he present lax system of invest
CATION there is absolutely no safeguard against its
reaching 5000 600 900

The House of Representatives has passed bill
appropriating $85 600 900 for pensions The amount
last year was 500 900 0OO and the Commissioner of
Pensions asked for a similar sum this year. Con-
gress would do well to go slow in decreasing the

From the Hebron (Eeb.) Journal, FEB. 81
The worst fraud that was ever perpetrated on any
government is the pension fraud. 1t has grown to
gigantic proportions This does not of course refer
to worthy and deserving cases, but to the many
thousands borne upon the pension rolls who not
entitled, legally equtably, to Government assist
