Also the BIZ for Public Building at Du-
Iuth, aiinn. Specimen vetoes-
oberly Taihs About Civil Service Law
Congressional Matters-Note, from the
National Capital.
WASHINGTON Cry, July S-The Pres
ident Tuesday transmitted to the house mes
sages announcing his disapproval of twenty
private pension bills and the bill providing
for the erection Of public building at Du-
luth, Mimi. The last named bill is vetoed,
the president says, because he is entirely
satisfied that the building provided for is
not Immediately necessary and he adds
that not little legislation has lately been
perfected and very likely more will be
necessary to increase niscalculated appro.
priauons for, and correct blunders in the
construction in many OF the public build
ing now in process of erection.
Lewis w. Scanland filed his declaration
for pension in 1891, alleging that he con
tracted chronic diarrhca in the Blackhawk
war The bill is vetoed because the pres
ident thinks it strange that Scanland should
live for over fifty years afflicted with
chronic diarrhea.
In vetoing the bill granting pension to
Francis Deming, who claims that he con
tracted blindness, the results of rheumatism
incurred in the service, the president says
that there seems to be no testimony showing
the soldiers condition from the time of his
discharge to 1850, a period of fifteen years.
The president continues:
After nineteen years had elapsed since
his discharge from the army, pension is
claimed for him, upon very shadowy al.
legation of the incurrence of rheumatism
while in the service, coupled with the start
ling proposition that this rheumatism re
suited, just previous to his application, in
blindness.
The president says also "None of us are
entitled to credit for extreme tenderness
and consideration toward those who fought
their country's battles These are senti-
men common to all good citizens, and they
lead to the most benevolent care on the part
of the government and deeds of charity and
mercy in private life. The blatant and
noisy self assertion of those who, from mo-
tives that may well be suspected declare
themselves above all other friends of the
soldier, can not discredit nor belittle the
calm, steady and atfectionate regard of a
grateful nation
These voices clear the PRESIDENT desk Of
that class of bills OF L55 presented TO him
he has signed j65 and vetoed ninety. In
every case he has had the report of the con
gressionsl committee and report from the
pension bureau.
