The National tribune., 1886-04-29
ABSURD,

A strong endeavor Is made to pref udice
the public mind against the repeal of the
unjust limitation to the arrears law by de-
nouncing it as "a claim agents raid on the
Treasury" This is highly absurd. Only a
very ignorant man will fail to understand
that pension attorneys cannot have dollars
worth of interest in the passage of such a
law. Their fee is the same whether the
claimant gets arrears Or not. Whether he is
allowed SIS, $500 or 5000 they cannot get a
cent beyond their prescribed fee of $50
Every cent of the extra millions which the
passage of such an act will take out of the
Treasury will 60 straight into the pockets of
the pensioners, without one penny being
diverted to the enrichment of the attorneys
or agents of any kind. The pension attor-
neys have as little pecuniary interest in it
as they have in the passage of the bill for
raising the pensions of widows and depend
ent relatives from So to S12 month, which
while paying those deserving ones an addi-
tional sum aggregating estimated at S66, OOO,-
900 a year, does not give pension attorneys
an extra cent.
The National tribune., 1886-04-29
A CARDINAL PRINCIPLE.

One cardinal fact in our National eco
Monies should always be kept in mind. That
is, that so long as we exchange crude pro-
ducts for the manufactured products of other
nations, just SO long we will lose money.
Whenever we trade bushel of wheat for q
yard or yards of French cloth, we lose by the
transaction-no matter what the prices may
be. The reason is, that we trade the thing
upon which there is the least profit for
thing upon which the profit is large. There
is smaller margin of profits in the produc-
ton of grain than in any other form Of
human industry. The reason that the
European Governments are willing to admit
our grain, but not our pork, is that there is
larger profit in pork-raising than in grain
raising, and they want that profit for their
own people.
Our policy toward them should be pre-
cisely what theirs is toward us-that is
shut out of our markets the goods upon
which they make the most money. Then
our own people will be enriched by the manu-.
facture of the profitable goods, and our home
markets for our agricultural products.

THE BEST WAR HISTORY

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE is daily rising
in popular estimation Us the best obtainable
history of the war. This is because it is no
one mans partial and prejudiced account
it is not a special panegyric of this or that
General, who is exalted as q demi-god at
the expense of all his associates and subor-
dinates-but it is the plain, unvarnished tes-
timony of the tens of thousands of men
who carried the muskets that shot the life
out of the rebellion, who trod the weary
marches, who dug the rifle-pits, and who ex-
posed their bodies to the ferceness of the
clements and the dangers of rebel shot and
she'll. This testimony of a cloud OF wit
nesses" has value that no individual nara
tive can have. THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
is now subscribed for regularly by every
oricalisth association, North and South, and
by most of the public libraries in all parts Of
the country
1t is invaluable to put into the hands of
children, who are eager to read the history
of the great struggle, and every family which
has sons should have it. Boys will read
stories of adventure-itis natural, healthy
taste-and it is infinitely better to provide
for them what is wholesome and instructive,
than to let them surfeit their minds with
the harmful stuff found in the majority of
the so-called boys books"
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE only costs TWO
CENTS WEEK, so that every one can afford
to provide himself and his family with what
will make such rich returns.

THE NEW YORK ENCAMPMENr.

The proceedings of the Encampment of
New York make pleasant reading, for the
meeting was unusually large and the earnest
ness and harmony Of those in attendance
very gratifying to all well-wishers of the
Order. In assigning causes for this we must
not fail to give due credit to the able ad-
ministration of Department Commander HI.
Clay Hall, who labored wisely, earnestly
and well during his term of Office for the
upbuilding and Strengthening of the Order.
1t is assuring to feel that he has a worthy
successor, who will carry On the work with
undiminished zeal and ability.
Comrade j. /. Sayles. who was elected
Department Commander, after an exciting
but very good-natured contest, is success
full lawyer Of Rome and is now in his 43d
year. He enlisted April 20, 1861, in the 18th
NY, and served with it through the siege
of Yorktown and the Peninsular campaign.
After his discharge he read law, and in 1866
graduated from the Albany Law School.
He has achieved especial prominence as a
criminal lawyer. In person he is tall and
stout, weighing nearly 300 pounds, and
bearing much resemblance to President
Cleveland. He is very popular with all who
know him, and has been an active GAR
man for many years. He is one of the char
ter members of SkilIin Pest, No. AZ, OF
Rome.
Charles A. Orr, the Senior Vice Com
mander, and who was elected almost unani-
mously, was private in Co. G, S7th n. Y,
and saw much hard fighting. He has been
member of the New York Assembly, and
is now Clerk of Erie County.
The Encampment Endorsed Gen. John A.
Reynolds for Commander-in-C Chief.
Among the mere notable acts of the En-
campment was the adoption of the following
resolutions, and their transmission to the
President by Commander III. Clay Hall:
Whereas II is proper that veterans irrespective oil
| party, should recognize anything done by publ,
official which demonstrates his intentions 10 carry
| out the promise made TO the men who dared death
| for their country; and
Whereas we have reason to believe. through dec
larations and actions, that the Hon. Grover Cleve
| land, President of the United States, means t.
carry out the principle that veterans, when com
potent. are entitled to recognition because of serv
ice rendered the country in time of war; therefore
| be it
RcsolUed, That the Department Of New York
| Grand Army of the Republic. representing or
| ganized body Of 80 900 veterans Of the war in an
nual session assembled in New York city, April 81
1886. view his in this respect with satisfac
ton, and hereby puts itself record approving
tie conscientious discharge of this patriotic duty
believing it to be the wish of the President that the
