IT is estimated that the Geographic
strike has cost the striking employees
about four hundred thousand dollars
in wages. This is a large sum, but
the cost to the company is much great
err. 1t is calculated that its loss is a
little short of a million dollars, and
perhaps quite that amount. The loss
in business, the troublesome lawsuits
and the boom given to competitors are
costly result of the strike.

ALL is not lovely in Hamilton
county, o. The better class Of dem

nees for the Legislature and quite a
number of them have held a meeting
and taken steps to nominate another
ticket. The old Executive Commit
tee will be asked to resign but whether
il does or not q new one will be ap.
pointed. The result will be a repub-
lican victory no doubt with two alleg-
ed democratic tickets in the field, but
it Is question whether defeat would
not br better than an advancement of
McLean's schemes.

corrupted the public service. Give

and it cannot be unlodged in another
decade. As to the inviolability of the
telegraph, we cannot lay mnch stress,

CURIOUS PETITION FOR PENSION.
Mr. Harrison yesterday presented In the Senate
petition from citizens OF Henryville, Indiana,
asking that special act be passed to grant pen

Is described as "clear case," now pending In the

diseases, which we have doubt originated
while he was in active service OF the government"
1t is rected that 1f Brooks gets his pension, for
which claim is pending, he would be barred from
to about g per month "aS the law now stands,
thereby derrauding him out OF about IL or lS
hundred dollars which justly belongs to him ac-
cording 70 the arrearages pension law" This
referred TO required claimants in order to get
rearageS to file claims within a specified time. and
that as Brooks had not done so, he could not. ul-
der that law, get arrearages. The petitioners
ask Congress to make a special case OF this, and
grant Brooks a pension from the time OF his dis
cnarge, February 18th, 1863, which would be to
pass special arrearageS act for his benefit One
pecu iarity about the petition is that nearly all
same handwriting. Referred TO the committe on
pensions, where it Will probably find eternal rest.
