Hundreds and Thousands of Frauds.
LFEom the Cereland Leader.I

1t is difficult to imagine why objection should
be made to 4 publication of the Government
pension lists If the country is interested in
reWarding the deserving among its defenders it
is equally interested in the prevention OF frauds
upon the public purse. There are nearly three
hundred thousand pensioners row drawing
money from the Treasury, while the increase
i'll the number of applications IS simply cnor-
nous. 1t is seriously alleged that there are
hundreds and thousands drawing pensions who
were never III the army in any capacity. people
who have been forced upon the lists by men,
bers of Congress who combine to vote their
fayoritcs money under false preteuses. Whether
this charge against congressman ne true or
false there can be no uncertainty as to the great
impositions being practiced upon the Govern
ment through the Pension Office. There are
not few men who, whether having served in
The army or not, are taking money to which
they are not entitled. They are hale, hearty
fellows, quite able to maintain themselves with
out Government assistance.

Wants Bentley Back.
[From he BrutAe6Oro (Vt.) Reformer. !


The colossal mistake Of President Garfield in
removing an honest and painstaking Commits
Boner of Pensions like Bentley to make room
for a mere politician from Indiana. Dudley, had
IS full proof in the report which the latter
worthy made public last Saturday. Our PEN
sion list is now the largest in the world moth
ing like it was ever heard of before. The num-
Der Of ex-vOlunteers who now draw or have
applied for pensions under the demagogic act
of 1873 is put by Secretary FoIger at 458,553;
the number of pensiOnable relatives Of soldiers
now dead at 1886. In other words more
than three-quarters of million persons repre-
senti1g nearly Cne-third of the soldiers who
ever enlisted or fought in the Union army have
applied for support. 1t needs no argument to
prove that there cannot be such an enormous
number of claimants, that those who are al
ready drawing pensions frauduleutly or Unde-
seemingly must be Numbered by tens and per-
haps by hundreds of thousands.

The Arrears Bill q Political Sin.
From the N Y Erenin1 Pos,.J

When the arrears bill was passed many Re.
pubhcans undoubtedly thought that their
party could not afford to oppose a measure
which, as they thought, had the Soldier ele-
ment" behind it. What has been the result?
the Republican party from defeat at the late
elections? On the contrary, the Arrears bill,
for which the Republicans were IN a great
measure held responsible, was one of the most
prominent items in the catalogue of Republican
Gins. The people are in a sober and inquiring
mood about these things. The old catchwords
Will no longer justify wholesale depletions of the
public treasury. Even the demagogues in
Congress, if they are shrewd, must have found
out that they can no longer make anything for
themselves by serving the claim agents.
