A point of importance to pensioners
has just been decided by the Acting Sec
rotary of the Interior in the case of the
application of John r. Collett for an
increase in pension. The decision con-
strues the law of June IS, 1874
defining total and permanent helpless
ness to mean permanent injury requiring
the regular personal attendance and aid
OF another person, and, as those
were found in the present case
the application was granted. This is a
reversal Of the previous decisions of the

general revenue fund, as directed by the
last legislature. Under the law passed by
that body special military tax will no
longer be levied, but the militia will now
be paid out of the general revenue fund
There is some question whether the trans
fer of this fund under the new law will
affect the outstanding accounts of the
various commands or not.

UNVARNISHED FACTS.
That's What the State Register Says
il Has Told in the ClGaveIand-
HainlinC Case.


The REGISTER has neither defended the
character of Mrs Annie Hainline nor
made any attack upon the character of
Mr. Henry Cleaveand 1t has simply
told the plain, unvarnished facts as they
have been developed in the course of the
legal proceedings, brought against Mr.
Cleaveland by the woman, and the sub
sequent charges made by Mr. cleveland
against the woman. 1t has not-as other
papers of this city have done-endeav-
Cred to whitcwash Mr. Cleaveland's
Ctfense, nor has it lied about the woman
for his benefit. This paper has been as
plain as any journal in giving the woman S
character. and did so in its first article on
the subject 1t has condemned Mr..
Cleaveland's conduct, and done so in no
unmeasurcd terms-but no more than he
deserved Who will defend his acts?
The Hainlne woman may be as black as
Cleaveland is trying to panther she may
be even worse, she is certainly any
thing but virtuOus woman. But that
does not relieve Mr. cleveland from the
disgrace that surrounds him in the affair
On the other hand it makes his intimacy
with her all the more reprehcnsible
Equally guilty with the woman IN the
sight of God. he should be made to share
with her the disgrace, and if the conse
qucnces of their mutual sin are to he what
she says they will be, he should be made
to share the burdens that are to come
from their intimacy. Mr.. Cleave-
lands and Mrs. Hainlines positions in
society have nothing to do with the mat
ter, any further than to make the affair
more disgraceful to the man who was sent
to Springfield to represent a respectable
constituency and whose high Official
standing as a Mason and an Odd Fellow
should have deferred him, if there was
nothing else to do so, from associating
with persons of whom he could know
nothing hut evil
