The Queer way in which the Adminis-
tration Has shown "a KeveugefuI
spirit Toward Union soldiers.
The opposition 10 the Presidents
vetoeS of private pension bill, is an
other form Of the effort to use the vet
Grams To gain party advantage. The
vetocS are represented as proofs of
rcvengcful spirit toward Union sol
diers for saving the country. and the
attempts to inSinuatc or 10 declare this
wrctched calumuy are utterly con
temptiblc and unworthy of the Rnpub-
lican name The President with dig
nifty and truthfulneSs SAYS, what every
honorable and patriotic American citi-
zen will approve.
"The blatant and noisy sclf-asscrtion OF
those who, from motives that may well br
suspected. declare themselves above an 9th
nor belittle the calm. steady aud ntTcctlonute
regard OF a grateful nat on"
The President points out that an APP
preparation Of sevcntv-siN millions Of
dollars has just been made for pensions
under liberal laws. TO meet every mcr-
itoriouS case, and that more than a
million of dollars wa, added to- main
tain the Pension Bureau The rate Of
pension in certain cases has been in
creased. and large appropriations have
been made for home, for sick. disabled
and needy soldiers. and there is a re-
cent liberal grant for their enlargement
and greater convenience. All this. rs
he says, isno more than should be done.
Besides this is the fact. which he
does not mention, that the committee
of the Democratic House has reported
favorably six hundred private pension
bills, against four hundred reported bv
the committee of the late Republican
House that many were rejected Il, Mt
terly undeserving, showing how great
is the pressure OF unfoundcd claims;
and that of the six hundred the Prcsi-
dent has vetoed but ninety, most of
which had been rejected by n. Repub-
lican Commissioner Of Pensions. Thus
while President Cleveland has signed
more than five hundred pension bills
in sixteen months, General Grant APP
proved only five hundred and forty-tvo
i'm the. eight years of his .Administra-
ton. Such facts dispose dflectually Of
the unworthy partisan assaults upon
President Cleveland a hostile to the
soldiers. -H0rpcr'S Wcckig.

a DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT

Another Instance, in Which the chief
Executive. in the Cause of Honesty aud
Justice, Uprooted "a Venerable Repub-
lican Custom.
Under Republican Administrations
the habit grew of rushing bills through
by the hundreds during the last two or
three hours of Il Congressional session.
scores of bills which could not bear the
light of day were held back to those
last moments, when the rush was so
great rs TO prevent examination. Many
even OF the appropriation bills were so
retarded that some of their clauses
might not meet with careful inspection.
In the last hours Of the session the
President was brought down to- the
capitol, and sat there signing bills as
fast as he could write, without any op-
portunity for intclljgcntly considering
the measures which h. was thus sup
posed to approve. Such was Tor a
quarter of century the Republican
practice.
We have now, for the first time i'm a
generation, Democratic President.
and ne has sufficient respect for his po-
stion to formally notify Congress that
his Executive approval will not be an
pended to any bills in any such fashion.
lie recognizes that the constitution
makes him a part of the law-making
power. He does not propose TO sign
any measure. whether an appropria-
ton bill or n private bill. until he has
had time to carefully examine it, and to
make mp hi, mind upon its merits.

POPocATEPETL.

The Ancient. Volcano Transported Into IN,
Halls Of Litigation.
The ancient volcano Popocatepetl has
got into the courts. Not that Il has
been bodily transported into the halls Of
litigation, but it is the subject Of a novel
suit at law. For many years General
Ochoa has been the owner OF the volcano,
the highest point Of land In North
America, together with all its appur.
tenances. The crater contains a fine
quality Of sulphur, which the General
has been extracting, giving employment
to Indians who cared to stay down in
the vaporous old crater. The property
was at one time fairly profitable, but
now it appears that the volcano was,
some time ago, mortgaged to Carlos
Recamier. who brings suit Of foreclosure.
The papers have been joking about the
matter, some asking what Recamler in
tends TO do with his volcano when he
gets legal possession. He has been sol.
