New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1886-02-24

The Republican members of the Sen.
ate judiciary committee have reported a
series of resolutions to the Senate un-
mistakenly setting forth the attitude
of the Republican Senators towards
President Cleveland in the issue upon
removals from office. While not de-
signing to make war on the President
and his nominees on political grounds,
they are firm in their determination to
withhold confirmation of all nominees
who succeed suspended officials until
the papers bearing upon such suspen-
sions are furnished the Senate. Action
upon the report was suspended until
next Monday, when the Democratic
members of the committee will submit
q minority report, and the flow of
oratory will be let loose. Up to this
writing the Republicans have the best
of the argument, and, in our opinion,
eventually the President will be brought
to terms.
New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1886-02-24

The Tribune is clearly of the view
that every man who served his country
three years in the army during the war
should receive from the government a
pension of not less than 800 per wear
during the remainder of his life, wheth-
er he was injured in the service or not
1t is always good policy for govern
ment to deal generously with its de-.
fenders.-St. Peter Tribune.
The soldiers, as a class, do not ask
this. But they do ask that the nation.
al government provide literally for
those who in defense of their country
lost limb or were otherwise incapaci-
tated to earn livelihood. They also
ask that the old. soldiers in needy cir
cumstances, who have become too old
and feeble to provide for themselves
and families, be provided for by the
government and not subjected to seek
home in the poor house, as was the
case this winter in Ramsey county on
three different occasions. This they do
ask, and they are clearly justified in
their demands.
New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1886-02-24

A startling story has gone out from
Millersburg, Pa. the truth Of which is
vouched for by men of veracity. A
number Of men were making light of
religious subjects, and especially the
Lords supper, when patent medicine
peddler dared the men in the room to
participate in mock sacrament. 1t
was agreed to use beer and bread, and
the medicine man handed it to the COM
pany as they were in a kneeling posi-
ton. Suddenly the Knockers were start
led by terrible noise, and looking up
they saw what they declare was an
immense, foul beast, with great. cloven
feet, pointed horns and fre-fashing
eyes. The men rushed out of the room
and scattered in all directions. The
peddler became crazed, and
he died a raving maniac.

An associated dispatch under date Of
Feb. 10 says: The ex-Confederates in
congress are using the administration
to pay off old scores. Last week Maj.
Lewis Merrill, of the Seventh cavalry,
was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and
his nomination sent to the, senate. This
week the nomination was withdrawn.
Secretary Endicott did not discover that
it was meant to promote Maj. Merrill
until after his promotion was sent to
the senate for confirmation, and was
opposed BY the ex-Confederate senator,
from South Carolina and Louisiana, who
at once persuaded the secretary of war
to punish Maj. Merrill for otfenses he had
committed against the late Confedera
cy. During reconstruction times in the
South, the man whom Secretary Endi-
colt is trying to disgrace was known in
the rebel circles as dog Merrill" and
the files of the Democratic papers from
North Carolina and South Carolina,
from 1865 to 1869, contain whole col
umns of other epithets that were ap.
piled to him. He was the commander
of what was known as ..Merrill's
n rise, "a famous brigade which was en-
gagged in suppressing the Kuklux Khan.
Senators Butler and Hampton are we'll
acquainted with his record, and this is
the first chance they have had to get
even with him. Gen. Sheridan, Gen.
Drum, and all the old army officers
here are very indignant at the manner
in which Secretary Endicott is trucking
