ham was received about that time. upon
which the case was reopened and sent to
an examining board in Indiana, resulting
in granting the pension.
In another instance was found letter
written by J. A. Fife to Senator Logan, in
which he calls attention to the long time
which a claimants papers had been in the
pension Office unacted upon. lie says
claimant was member of the famous
Springfield convention Claimant was
feeling ugly" because of the delay, and
the writer thought it a good scheme To
have the matter settled as soon as possible
TO make him feel better. The writer asked
General Logan's aid to this end. General
Logan sent the letter to Commissioner
Dudley, with a request that the case be
made especial" which was granted, and
the pension was allowed.
These are few from the many. The
special letters putting pension cases on
political grounds were doubtless generally
better taken care of than to be filed foI
Democratic inspection; but enough were
carelessly left to prove the system, and
Dudley will find it hot enough for him be-
fore he is through with it.

Not Taxing Profitable Properties.

The Mt, Joy Stcr and Ne,rS very proper
ly calls attention to the fact that the prop
erty owned. occupied and operated 10y the
management of the soldiers orphans
school in that borough, has been for many
years exempt from taxation by virtue of
some laws passed for that purpose. One
of them is an act of April 10, 1867, which
exempted their lands and buildings not ex-
ceeding $4,000 in value; and another is
the act of April "A, 1869, which more ex-
pressly says "no tax shall be assessed or
collected on any property used or entered
upon for the purposes mentioned in said
act, after the date of and during said oc-
cupancy, the assessed valuation of which
shall not exceed the sum mentioned in said
act.r
AT the same time the act says that these
institutions, exempt FROM taxation because
designated and employed as soldiers or
phans' schools, must he " literary oI
charitable" institutions. 1t is very clumsy
legislation and was manifestly made to iii
particular case but it is certainly in
equitable, if not also unconstitutional
| These schools are run as private business
and run to profit. Investigation has shown
that the profits are inordinate, and that
everything is sacrificed to make prOft
There is no reason why they should not
pay tax. A soldiers orphans school that
pays forty per cent. is a more Legitimate
subject for all kinds of taxation than 1
farm that does not pay three per cent.
