TnuCH ELBOWS.

The National Pension Committee of the
GAR. came to Washington and studied
carefully the temper of Congress upon the
subject of pensions, and also the history of
pension legislation in the past. 1t went
over the whole ground, step by STEP and
prepared plan of what would bring the
most relief to the greatest number OF deserv-
ing comrades, and what could most likely
be secured from Congress at the present ses-
sion. II goes without saying that the Com
mittee asked everything that there could
be any reasonable hope of obtaining.
1t was made up of men of the highest
standing in the Order, and these had been for
years paying special attention to the subject
of pensions Its action received almost uni
versal Endorsement from the comrades. Now,
we feel it is the duty of every soldier to give
the Committees recommendations an enthu-
siastic support until Congress incorporates
them into law. This is the only way to
secure pension legislation. BY agreeing
upon one thing at time, all that is just
and proper can be eventually secured. Stand
elbow to elbow now, as in the past.

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE has on several
occasions testified its admiration of the de
lightful japanese classics, which have been
given to the readers of the western world,
through the charming translations of Mr..
Edward Grey, of New York, a ripe scholar
who spent many years in Japan and while
acquiring an accurate knowledge of the Ian
guage and literature of that country, lost
nothing of his graceful mastery Of his own.
The result has been a number of delightful
books which have simply charmed readers
everywhere. The first was the Loyal
Ronins," and this was followed by the
Golden Lotus" collection of tales The
latest is "a Captive Of Love-" a story full of
japanese superstitions, customs and ideas,
The translation is so excellent that the En-
peror and Empress of Japan have directed
their Minister at Washington to convey to
Mr.. Greey their thanks and Communications.
The book is now being translated into Ger
man by Prof Neusel, of Konigsberg, Prussia.

SAMPLE COPIES.

We send cut this week a number Of sam
pie copies. We ask those non-subscribers,
into whose hands such may come, TO give
them q careful examination. If they will,
they will find the paper 10 be such a one as
they ought by all means TO have, for them
selves aad for their children. II contains a
vast amout of matter OF a class that can
not be found in any other paper. Ii is the
representative OF the men VINO fought the
war Of tie rebellion through TO a glorious
success, and made this Government what IL Is
Their courage, devotion, and selfsacrlice
bought fer US all the prosperity and happi-
ness which we as a people enjoy. The story
Of how they did this is told in The Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE as in no other paper. To
the men and women who lived during the
days Of the great struggle, It's columns have
a vivid and never-faiiing interest 1t is the
best paper TO put into the hands OF children
These hunger for stories Of daring, advent
ure, and heroic achievement. Ii they do
not find them in healthy, well-written pa
pers and books, they are going to seek them
In the trashy, vicious and sensational publi-
cations expressly designed TO catch their in
experienced young minds. THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE is clean and truth-telling in every
sentence. It's value to the children in Civ
ing them wholesome and interesting read
ing, and in teaching them the true history
of the country is seyenty-fold the trifiing
cost Of the paper.
No man can afford to do without the pa
per for himself, and still less can he afford
TO do without il for his children.
We are sure that every one viii come to
this conclusion who will make careful ex-
animation of the paper. If he does so, then
the next step is to send us 81 for a years
subscription, and we will promise him that
he shall never regret it.

HANCOCK AT GETTYSBURG.
BY Gen. Francis A. Walker.

We have to congratulate the readers Of
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE upon the fact
that we have secured q promise Of several
contributions from Gen. Francis A. Walker,
a soldier of brilliant record, and a scholar
and statisticlan OF the highest rank. In 1851
Gen. Walker WAS in the law Office of Deycus
& HoaT, of Boston, ana at the first call for
troops, enlisted in the 18th Mass, of which
Mr. Deyen3 was CnioGel. He was soon ap-
pointed S2TEeaat-M2iOr, and by good con
duct reached the grade of Major the follow
ing year. In 1863 he was appointed Assist
ant Adiutaat General, with the rank Of
Lieutenant Colonel, and assigned TO the Sec
ond Corps. He served in this capacity on
the Stats of Couch, Warren, and Hancock,
successfully, until 1865, when he was mus
tered ont with the rank Of Brevet Brigadier-
General, having the reputation of being one
of the'mOst efficient Staii'ofiiceFs il the entire
army. He was wounded at Charlottesville:
was captured ct Ream's Station and confined
In Libby Prison until October, 1863.

A VOTE IS WANTED.

A matter Of common deccncy and fair
dealing is involved.
There has been no question presented to
this Congress of such grave interest to so
many people, and to SO important and de-
serving a class Of people as the recommends
tons of the National Pension Committee OF
the GAR.
No legislation has been asked for by a
1.-THE of the number of people that have
asked for this.
No legislation has been promised any
number Of people with anything like the
earnestness that legislation of this kind has
been promised by the Members Of the pres
ent Congress.
no legislation suggested or contemplated
viii do hundredth part Of the good to the
same number Of people or to the people at
large that this viii.
No legislation is so urgently demanded to
satisfy the requirements of National graft
tude and National honor as this is.
Yet in spite of all this, the consideration
of the legislation prayed for is deferred from
day to day and from week to week, while
the time of Congress is occupied with mat
tiers Of far less importance, and questions of
relative insignifcance are brought to an
issue and disposed Of
More than four months have elapsed since
Congress has assembled, and yet it seems
scarcely nearer the consideration and settle
ment of this matter Of almost vital impor-
lance to hundreds of thousands of our citi-
zens than it was when its Members first
settled down into the seats to which they
had been elected.
This shilly -shallying and evasion is un-
worthy of that honorable body and insult
ing to the great class of our citizens who are
affected by it.
1t owes it to itself and to the loyal people
The National tribune., 1886-04-15
THE PART OF WISDOM.

It would be impossible to exaggerate
the evils which will result from any divis-
ion of counsels among the soldiers at this
critical time. Now, if ever, is the time when
it is imperative that they present a united
front to Congress. if they would secure the
relief they desire from that body for their
comrades. The movement in favor of aService
pension of So a mouth, which has gained
some Roadway in Massachusetts and Ind
lana, should be regarded as extremely I'M
fortunate. 1t is unfortunate because it is
inopportune No more unfit time could be
selected for the agitation Of such a measure
than the present. This the comrades who
are supporting the measure could readily
ascertain for themselves by visit to
Washington. They would there encoun-
ter such an opposition on all sides
from men Of all shades of political
belief that they would at once recognize the
utter futility of presenting such a measure
to Congress at this session. The temper of
the majority of Congress is, at least, none
too favorable to any additional liberal PEN
sion legislation. The urging of the So a
month scheme gives the enemies Of pension
legislation an admirable weapon to fight
with, by undertaking to show that the SOL
diers are not united upon the National Pen
sion Committees plan, and they would also
make use Of it to exaggerate WHIST the SOL
diers ask of the country.
All our hopes of securing anything ut the
present session of Congress, of bringing re-
lief to the tens of thousands of destitute
comrades which we hoped TO secure at the
last session, but were defeated, and every
ameloration that has any hopes of success
are conferred in the adoption of the recon-
mendations of the National Pension Com
mittee of the GAR. Any division of SEN
timent in regard to these will greatly jeop-
ardize their success, and we hold with all
possible earnestness that the main duty of
every soldier and every man who is friendly
to soldiers is to give whatever support lies
in his power toward securing the embodi-
ment of those recommendations into a law.
