The Cough memorial service at the Hall
Sunday evening, the 30, was well attended.
Inc services were OF very interesting and
instructive character. Sketches from the
lite and poems written in memory of Mr.
Cough were read by Miss Ida Gott, Bertha
Kyle, Miss Nellie Shorey, and others Miss
Mabel Kyle sang a song entitled "rhe
Drunkards Wife" very ehectingy. Appr, pri-
ate selections were rendered bv the choir, the
words of one being written for the occasion
by Mr.. o. +. Frost. Much credit is due
the president, M. N. Nichols, and Misses.
Nellie Shorey and Hattie Clifford,
who assisted him in making the arrangements
and carrying out the programme. One very
interesting feature of the meeting was an
original address by r. II. Beale. on "Reform
and John Is. Cough as reformer. There
is a general feeling of satisfaction in this
town In the appointments made by the con-
ference Rev. Mr.. Holmes has been here
two years and the people gladly welcome
him for the third time His labors have
been attended with success to quite degree.
We understand Hammond Street Church,
Lewiston, sent a delegation to Brijpton to
urge his appointment to thnt charge. At the
opening of the service last Sabbath, the fol-
lowing hymn was sung by the choir, being
written by Mr.. o. f. Frost, whose pen
is ever ready for any subject:
Welcome back TO fields Of labor
Where too few the workers are,
For, since thou hast been our leader,
Christ has been thy guiding star.
shall we labor with our pastor,
In the harvest just begun.
Never ceasiDg, never resting,
Till more souls 10 Christ are won2
ave are working for the Master"
IL the motto let US bear,
Till our Iabors here have ended,
And we meet Him ''over there"
The Methodist circle met Thursday with
Mrs j. Shorey. A good company WAS pres-
ent and stayed until a late hour. The reading
by Miss Hattie Clifford and singing by
Mrs. Edwards were very much enjoyed. M.
B. Cbesley has been quite i'll for three weeks
past. We hope TO see him out ere long.-A
new hardware store is opened by j. II. Gil
man and +. II. Beal Changes in business
are very frequent here.-A good many spples

ONE WAY OF LOOKING AT 1T.

The average loss in wages to the man who
left his trade, farm, profession or business,
to serve three years i'll the army, was not
less than 5000. AS there were 1920 ,272 OF
these the actual cash donation to the Ma

The pension payments up to this date are

is alleged the repeal Of the limitation to
the arrears Of pension law will take out of
the Treasury we still have no more than
81 000,000,000, or less than half what the
soldiers Of the country gave it rs free

YEARS ago, when the wealth of the coun-
try was not half what it is at present, and
the Government had no more money in its
Golfers than to would suffice meet current
expenses, there was no talk of bankrupting
the Treasury" though hundreds of millions
were yearly paid out to the money-lerders.
Now, with our vaults bursting with coin for
which there is no employment, and with a
cash surplus in the Treasury greater than
the entire receipts of the Government for the
four years next preceding the war, we are
told that the Treasury Will be bankrupted,
and all manner of evil befall the people if a
few additional millions are taken out of the
Treasury each year to liquidate the debts
the Nation has been owing to its soldiers for
years. How absurd this is.

THE WASHINGTON THURSDAY

held up to view and extolled by the press
and speakers without regard to party. Many
of the papers and public men who are now
alarmed at the prospect of bankrupting
the Treasury" were, during the canvasses
in their States, distinguished for their zeal in
| calling the attention of soldiers to the recon-
mendation of their party platform of this
measure of justice" AT the opening of the
present session of Congress the Republican
Members unanimously resolved in caucus to
support the measure and the Democrats
from the North and West gave it out dis
tinctly that they were no whit behind their
political opponents in their friendship to the
repeal.
The time has now arrived when all this
comforting talk and fine resolving should
bear fruit. We have had an agreeable suf
iciency of patriotic sentiment and pleasant
wishes. Now let us have a vote which will
give these practical effect.
There are tens Of thousands of INDECENT
and disabled soldiers. their wives, widows
and orphans, to whom the passage of this
bill will bring all the comfort and happiness
that they can have in this world They are
watching the daily dispatches from Wash
ington with intense eagerness. To keep
them in suspense is refined cruelty. Gen
tlemen of the House of Representatives, for
their salles let there be vote at once upon
this, that they may know what their fate is.
Let them know what you propose to do for
them. Either give them the relief which is
righteously their due or tell them there is
no hope of it.

THE EXECUTIVE SESSION NONSENSE.

THE EXECUTIVE SESSION NONSENSE.
Gen. L0gans demand that there shall be
| radical curtailment of the secresy Of execu
tive sessions will be approved by the coun.
try. Three-quarters of the business trans
acted at these so-called secret sessions is
something that the country has right te
know all about, and, in fact does know all
about, for the secresy is mostly formal
humbug, and the papers next morning con-
tain about all of the proceedings that are
worth printing. Every capable correspond
ent has ways and means of finding out all
that has been done, and he loses little time
by being shut out of the gallery when the
Senate closes its doors to consider nomina-
tons of postmasters and revenue collectors.
The strongest argument in favor of secret
executive sessions is that they allow nomi-
nations to be discussed with more freedom
than they otherwise could be, for facts con-
corning nominees for offices are frequently
pICSShtcu " oCudtOIS "Hicu, Ill ulaIt pun
lie, would blast the characters of the men
forever. Under the present system these are
regarded as confidential, and the public
knows nothing fthem, except that the men
who are so accused fail of confirmation.
This is no reason for secret sessions. The
people have the right to have the character
of the men who aspire to serve them dis
cussed openly. They exercise this right in
the freest manner with those who want to
be Presidents, Senators, Congressman, Gov
errors, SheriffS, etc. Why should the candi-
dates for post-of1ices, collectorships and con-
sulships be exempt from a public scrutiny
of their past conduct and present fitness?
OF course there is some business that
should be transacted in secret session. I'M
portant treaties have to be considered on
rare occasions, and on still rarer ones mat
tiers relating to domestic or foreign policy
are to be discussed in privacy. But the
right of the Senate to 60 into secret session
when it is really necessary Gen. Logan does
not for a moment desire to infringe upon.
He simply wants to put an end TO the num-
merry and pretense of secresy where there is
no real reason for secresy, and no real Sc
cresy is obtained

Hon. L. @. c. LAMAR, the distinguished
gentleman who is at the head of the Interior
Department, struck the keynote when he
declared in his annual report that there
was no danger to the financial interests of
the country from pension payments, so
long as the aggregate Of these did not equal
the aggregate annual payments for princi-
pal and interest Of the public debt Tcsti-
mony like this, from such a source, is of the
highest value to the soldiers, and Mr.. Lamar
has shown himself true friend.

Of rich men who put their bank accounts at
the Governments service when it was sorely
pressed for money. 1t figures in many 4
eulogy of some dead rich man that he placed
all his property at the disposal of the Gov
ernment and risked his fortune upon its sue
cess Commodore Vanderbilt is extolled be-
cause he gave the Nation a fine ship with
which to chase the pirate Alabama" What
do the most meritorious of these contribu-
tons amount to compared to the gift of
the young man just starting in life who
gave the country three years of his serv-
ices for the meager stipend of private sol
der How insignificant the donations of all
the rich men in the country were in COM
parison with the donations of the men who
filled the ranks Of the regiments.
Besides, the rich men got back every dol
lar, with interest, that they let the Govern
ment have. Many were repaid twofold,
fOurfold, and even sevenfold every cent of
their contributions But the young man
who gave it the 5000 of the wages he would
have received had he remained at home, has
never been repaid. No bonds have ever been
issued to him for that contribution. He cuts
no coupons off it twice year and presents
them to the United States Treasurer. No
national bank has it deposited as a basis for
its circulation. 1t is lost to him asirrevoca-
bly, as his health and strength perhaps the
limb which he left on some Southern battle
