The Pension Burden.

Representative Reagan, OF Texas, gave
the House his views Thursday about
the pension business, and they are very
acceptable views, doubtless, to the great
mass Of the people.
There are men in Congress whose sole
object. 30 far as legislation is con-
cerned. appears to be to increase the pen
sion charges. There may be few of them
who really think that the pensioners are
a badly treated class Of people, and that
they ought to receive twice as much as
they do, but the most OF them, doubtless,
are more anxious to make themselves
popular with the ex-soldier element than
they are 10 do pensioners a good turn.
There is good deal of truth in the
statement Of Representative Reagan that
il there were no votes involved in this
pension business there would not be such
extraordinary and continued efforts to in
crease the pension burden.
Representative Reagan is not the man
towthhold pensions from those who de-
seaFe them, bat be has seen enough 10
convince him that laws granting addi-
u.rai pensions and creating new classes
% pensioners are suggested and urged not

Ing -he pension list do not dare 10 vote

never reached those for wRom the money

known. The pension burden is becoming
40 heavy, however. that D. rs time that

NIr. Acton,s Successor.

The President had a long search for the
right kind OF a man tor Assistant Treasu-
rer of New York. Mr.. Bigelow didn't
want it because his wife thought that the
cares Of the Office were too heavy bur-
den for him to carry. Mr. Roosevelt de-
clined 1t because its duties We're too con-
timing. and Mr.. Russell refused it because
Of the great responsibility attached to it.
How many the office was offered TO whose
names didn't appear IN print is, of course,
a Cabinet secret
The man who finally agreed TO accent
IT, Mr.. Charles }. Canda, is a representa-
tive New Yorker. He is well known in
Wall street, and has had a great deal to
do with Mr.. Tilden's multifarious enter
prises. He is Partisan by birth and is
- years OF age. For many years he was
closely connected in business matters
with Mr.. William B. Ogden, a railroad
magnate. He has never had much TO do
with national or local politics. At pres
ent be has large interests in Western rail-
roads and Western locomotive and car
works. In fact, he is president of the
Toledo and Ohio Central railroad. There
is no reason TO doubt that his nomination
will be confirmed.

Nc silver Ooinage CommIttee.

The Silver Coinage Committee.
The indications are that the Committee
on Coinage will at an early day report a
bill to suspend the coinage OF the silver
dollar 1t is not probable that the bill
viii provide for an indefinite suspension.
Nobody asks for anything of that kind.
All that is asked is that the coinage shall
be suspended until the silver dollars
already coined can be got into circulation.
Every Congressman who is simply anxi-
GUS to keep both gold and silver in cir
culatlon ought to vote for bin of that
kind. Those who want the country
brought to a silver standard and gold
driven out OF circulation, will, Of course,
vote against suspension in any shape.
1t IS worthy of notice that Senator
Brown, in his silver speech, said that to
suspend silver coinage would be to con-
tract the currency SOS, 600 annually.
1t would be interesting to know on what
he bases that statement. None of the
silver dollars that have been coined within
the last year or two has been put in
circulation either by silver certificates or
otherwise. There are many millions OF
silver dollars IN the Treasury which the
Secretary Of the Treasury has not been
able to get into circulation. II Congress
suspends silver dollar coinage for three
years the government can put into circu-
lation more than SIS, 600, 600 in silver each
year without exhausting the supply OF
silver dollars on hand. What reason
therefore is there for supposing that there
will be contraction OF the currency if
there Is a emporary suspension of silver
coinage? Probably Senator Brown failed
to qualify his statement as he intended to
do

No Prospect For Home Rule.

No Prospect For Home Rule.
The Queens speech is not calculated
to encourage the nope that Ireland has
much chance for getting home rule. TRe
government is prepared to grant few
minor concessions, but nothing that APP
proaches the demands Of the Parnelltes.
1t remains TO be seen what course Par
nell will pursue. He has no reason to
expect that he can gain the support of the
Liberals to accomplish his purposes, and
the Queens speech has notified him what
10 expect from the Conservatives Indeed,
he is told that strong measures will be
taken to repress exhibitions of discomfort.
1t would not be surprising If there soon
would be very troublous times in Ireland.
The condition OF affairs there are alarm
ing. The land tenants have organized
over large part of the country, and viii
certainly refuse to pay tue eXorbitant
rents. The landlords are also organizing.
The Irish peasantry in some localities
are about ready to pursue sny course
which their leaders may advise. There is,
according to reports, great restitution
among them, and at the same time the

turbances and scenes OF violence are,
therefore, beginning to increase. The
threat OF harsh measures which the
Queens speech contains doubtless pleases
the landlords. Some Of them may DO
what they can TO encourage disturbances
in order to hasten the execution Of the
threat. The course Of events in Parlia-
ment and in Ireland will be watched
during the next few weeks with great in

question tells how, after all the ordinary
methods for giving relief TO g hydrOphobic
madman had iailed electricity was tried as q
last resource. The patient, who was raving
and making attempts TO bite all around. was
firmly fastened to mattress, and the poles Of
strong battery were brought into COnnec-
ton with his feet and his throat re pectively,
The result was instantaneous cessation of the
spasm, and, while uuder the influence of cleo
triclty, the patient willingly drank fluids.
AIT dozen applications or SO OF half an
hour each the poor wretch collapsed, but IN
place OF dying he only perspred and vomlted
freely. After this a single spasm occurred a
week later, whereupOn another dose OF cleo
trlclty WIS administered, the ultimate result
being a perfect recovery.

Lecture on Alaska.

Last evening DIR. q. d. Bushnell,
of San Francisco, delivered at the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church,
corner of Thirteenth and Oak
streets, one of the most interest
ing lectures ever heard in this
city. The subject of the lecture
was Alaska; Her Present Re-
sources and Possibilities" He
gave a brief account of the extent
of the country, the natural divis-
ions so far as known, the climate,
productions, fisheries, mining OPP
erations, ethnology of the inhabi-
tants, etc. The lecturer has spent
much time in Alaska and his pic
lures were vivid and realistic.
From beginning to the close he
carried his appreciative audience
with him. K. q. Times, May 18th

DR.. Bushnell was formerly
merly a resident Of Kirksville and
for some time has been Office
