The Detroit Free Press remarks
sneeringly, that Roscoe Dix, the re-
publican nomine for commissioner OF
the state land Office, "was in the re-
beIlion."
Well, yes, rather. and had his anat-
omy shot full of democratic bullets,
much to the delight of the friends of
the Free Press. Mr.. Dix went into the
rebellion" about the time that the
Free Press was threatening with IA
fire in the rear" all nofthern men who
set their faces toward the south with
the purpose of trying to save the un-
ion from disruption. Mr. Dix was shot
several times, but not 'ih the rear. :"
But it was too cowardly to carry
out It's threat to fire in the rear. though
it did all it could to aid and encourage
the rebels to shoot our northern boys
in front.
1t may not be out of place to men
tion the fact that Mr.. Dix went Into
"the rebellion" as a democrat, but he
soon became disgusted with the disloy.
atty aud poltroonery of the Free Press
and its ''pals" In tile north and when
he came home to recover from the eff
fects of severe wounds inflicted by the
p. f. rebels, he had enough of democ-
racy, and joined the party which had
been with him in his efforts to save
the Union.
For the sake of decency the Free
Press would as well not revive the
memory of those days of "the rebell-
ion. "--Eint Globe.

The democratic papers are rending
their garments over what they call a
waving of the bloody shirt" by Mr..
Blaine In recent speech. The utter
ance alluded to was one charging the
Southern democrats with "disfranchis-
ing six million of the population, thus
enabling them to cast from thirty-five
to forty votes in Congress to which
they have no moral or legal title, and
no title at all except that which is
founded upon force and fraud" This
is waving of the bloody shirt, accord
ing to the democratic Northern dough-
face and lickspittle press. Very well I;
bit isn't IL trues IL is remarkable
fact that not one of these mudsill
sheets has denied the fact stated by Mr..
Blaine. They merely shrek because
he dared to mention IL. With all their
trucking and sycophancy to their
Southern masters, they dare not deny
the truth Of the charge. Blade

SO II seems that the United States
has only rs tents it can spare for the
houseless thousands of Charlston,
without the interpositloh of a vast lot
of red tape. The President is junket-
ing in the Adirondacks, and has either
no time or no inclination to give ear to
the cry of suffering humanity. Gov.
Hill, of New York, is doubtful IL he
has authority to send shelter tents. So
much for democratic president and
governor. But the Republican Gov.
Foraker, OF ohio, sent tents at once,
and was not bothered about his right.
1t was the call of humanity and duty
he responded. and the sentiment of the
whole people of the state and the
Union applauded him.-Blade.

About Pension Legislation.
The re'nerkablecampaign document
recently issued by the national con-
gressional committee Of the democracy
has some features OF genuine public in
terest. IL is tissae of gigantic and
picturesque falsehcods which has sell
dom had IFS equal in the history of polit-
ical lying in this country. This is par
ticularly true of its statement OF the
pension question in general and of its
particular claim "time and again
measures looking directly to the inter
ests of tire soldiers have been success
fully pressed by a democratic najori-
ty to legal enactment, and that when
such measures failed they failed
through republican inaction."
Let us see. The record of the con-
gress whose first session recently ad-
journed, shows the following interest
ing and pertinent facts: The ''wid-
ow's pension bill" passed the house by
a vote of 1913 to 66. The affirmative
vote including 11S republicans and so
democrats. Sixty-six democrats and
not a single republican voted in the
negative. The democrats came pretty
near defeating the bill, since two
thirds vote was necessary to pass it,
and it could not have passed at all ex-
cept for the republican vote that it re-
ceived> In the senate the bill to pen
sion dependent disabled soldiers and
their relatives was passed by vote OF
"a to IL Democrats for the bill, II
democrats against, 14s republicans for
the bill, 81; against the bill, none.
The democratic majority in the house
refused even to consider 1t. The re-
publican senate passed a bill to in
crease the pensions of minor children
from So to 81 month and the house
refused to consider it. The bill to I'm
crease the pension of armless or leg
less soldiers passed the republican sem
ate without discussion. In the house
the rules were suspended and the bill
was passed by vote of 165 to 81.
The affirmative vote stood: Repubii-
cans, 94; democrats, II. The mega
tive vote vast Democrats. 81; repub-
licans, none. Two-thirds were again
required, and if left to the democratic
party alone the bill would have been
defeated. The proposition to repeal
the limitation upon tho arrearages of
pensions act was SO obnoxious to the
democratic majority in the house of
representatives that it would not even
consider 1t as seperate measure in d
form which was advantageous in any
sense to the pensioner.
These conspicuous instances of
democratic legislation, added to the
insolent and brutal vetoes by the pres
ident of worthy measures for the re-
lief of veterans. exhibit very clearly
the sort of treatment which union sol
diers may expect at the hands of a
union-hating president and copper
head congress. The democracy is the
natural and persistent enemy of the
union soldier at every point and under

All the merchants are reaching out for

far from customer as the one who
don't advertise. We throw in these

tighten the toll-gate and ferry fees of
those who will now rush in TO see our
