A shade Of rage passed over his lie;

was, he seized her brutality by the arm,
and with a malignant voice, hoarse
with annoyance, said:

with the understanding that as soon as fin

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
] wish 10 express TO You my gratitude for
the manly and outspOken way you spoke in
your last issue ia regard 10 the causes Of delay
IN the adjustment Of pension claims. For a
long time j have been convinced that IL was
the rulings Of the Pension Office that stood IN
the way and not only were those rulings
not required by the law, but they were In
direct opposition TO the spirit and intent of
the law. i think it is high time the Com
missioner commenced that reform in the ad-
niinstratiOn Of the affairs Of the Pension Office
for which he was appointed; for if anything
was generally understood at the time of his
appointment il was that he should enter at
once upon a thorough reformation of the
affairs Of that Office. Since Colonel Dudley's
appointment quite a number Of cases have
been rejected ia this town, and the general opin-
ion here with al parties is that the evidence in
these cases would sustain claim before any
court at law in the land; ia other words, that
the evidence IN these cases is good, and that
their rejection is in direct violation Of the
spirit Of our pension laws.
Pap Thomas Post, No. lei, G. A. r., Depart
ment Of Michigan, located at this place at
their regular meeting last evening, received
