Much OF the current talk about the revenge
which congressman will take on the president
when the session begins, because be has not
appointed their friends to Office, may be set
down as empty rant. The president has no
tavors to ask OF congressman. The TACT that
he has refused to grant their personal de-
mauds is . very poor reason for their offering
isctious opposition to legislation whitA ae
may recommend for public reasons.--Boston

THE Atlanta Eceaing Journal has received
a new accession to its editorial and business
management in the persons of Mr. Fred. T.
Wilson and John Paul Jones' Both of these
gentleman have well-earned regulations for
journalistic ability. Mr. Fred. F. Wilson
was for long time in the advertising de-
partment of the Toledo Blade, and after
wards sustained a similar relation to this
paper. He is a young man of great energy
and capacity. Mr.. John Paul Jones was for
several years partner of d. r. Locke (Pe-
troleum V. Nasby) in the ownership of the
Toledo Blade, afterwards was its sole owner,
and then became the editor of the Toledo
Bee and displayed unusual ability in all
these relations. There is splendid field
for the journal in Atlanta, as it is the oaly
evening paper in that thriving city, and with
the energy and capacity of these two trained
journalists added to it's motive force it will
no doubt speedily become one of the leading
papers in the South.

reasoning that leads people to oppose the
amendments to the Mexican Pension Bill.
These assume that to charge the Govern
ment with the support of a disabled soldier
would add new burdens to the taxpayer.
They forget that the disabled soldier has to
be supported by somebody, and that the Gov
eminent should do it, rather than the County
or City. In the same way, Gov. Pattison
refuses to have the County bury INDECENT
soldiers forgetting that they have to be
buried at public expense any way, and the
only difference is whether they will be given
a pauper's Or soldiers funeral. The ex-
pense is the same.

the grand opportunity of seeing country

VETERANS, RIGHTS.

The Veterans Rights Union has been
doing splendid work during the past week
The first hit was the visit to the Reunion of
the Army of the Potomac, where, under the
leadership Of the jealous Comrades Hedges
and Kay, it secured the adoption by the
by the meeting of each Corps of the follow
ing:
The object of this Union is under the auspices of
the GA. r., to secure to those who served under
the Government of the United States during the
late war, the rights and privileges guaranteed to
them by Sections 1854 and 1855 of the Revised Stat
of the United States, also Section 3, Chapter
2S7, Laws of 1876.
SEC. 1854. Persons honorabIy discharged from
the military naval service by of disability
resulting from wounds and sickness incurred in
the line of duty, SHALL be preferred for appoint
mcnts 10 civil offices, provided they found to
possess the business capacity necessary fol- the
proper discharge of the duties of such offices.
SEC. g. Chapter 2s7, Laws of 1876 is in part fol-
lows: Provided that in making any reduction of
force in any of the Executive Departments, the
head of such Department SHALL retain those per-
sons who may be equally qualified who have been
honoraby discharged from the military naval
service Of the United States, and the widows and
orphans Of deceased soldiers and sailors.
Each Corps Society passed resolutions in
dorsing these, and then followed the hearty
Endorsement of the above by the full meet
ing of the Society Of the Army of the Poto-
mac, and the appointment by that body of a
committee to press the matter upon the
attention of the President, which was sue
cessfully done, as is reported in another
column of this paper.
Altogether, this makes creditable weeks
work.

interest and enthusiasm aroused by the tour.
He has now visited 30 Departments, has been

the globe. Extensive as his travels have
been, he still expects to go to Iowa, Wiscon-

Everywhere he has been he has found the

GEN. LOGAN.

Gen. Logans chances have taken an uIex-
pected turn for the better. The election for
Representative in the 34th Illinois district
to succeed a member who was found dead in
his bed, took place last Thursday, and to the
establishment and chagrin of the Democrats
Weaver, the Republican candidate, was
elected, though the district gave 1900
majority for Cleveland last Fall. The
explanation is that the Democrats were over
confident and made no effort, while the
Republicans ran the stillest kind of still
hunt. This puts an entirely different face
on matters at Springfield, for it takes one
away from Morrison and gives one more to
Gen. Logan, and will make majority for
him on, joint ballot, of two. His election
may, therefore, be brought about before this
issue of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE reaches
its readers. Among the squibs which the
occurrence has set flying about is the follow
ing poetical gem:
seen John Logan tother day,
While l was out a-plowin',
An he come ridin down way
A-smilin' an a-bowin'.
He called aside my neighbor Brown,
An from their careless prattle
gathered Logan he'd come down
Ter Cass ter buy some cattle.
At last they got to talkin' war
Of slavery's cissd oppression,
An what they went ter Gghtin for
When we uns jincd secession;
1t struck me then as kind o queer
That they should talk of battle
When Logan's only business here
Was tibet of buyin' cattle.
Well, then election come along
An pass d without much notin'-
We thought our candidate so strong
Thar warnt no o votin'.
But, gosh, tibet day a: four O'Clock,
From out the bresh an timber,
The rasiilleis begun ter flock
An knocked our party timber.
An thar stood Logan at Their polls
An watched the po: n bn
Encouragin' them sneakin' souls
With his deceitful sInilin'
We knew tibet we'd been euchrcd then
By his misieadin prattle-
We saw how he he'd biutied us when
He talked of buyin' cattle.
The Democrats of grand old Cass
Are grieved beyond all tellin',
An many bourbon breast, alas!
With honest rage Is swellin':
We'd oughter guessed the critters game
When. Jest afore the battle,
Tibet snailin', bowin' Logan came
Ter Cass ter buy some cattle.
