The prospects for Bittinger to make
a large town some time in the near
future is good. Four years ago there
were no buildings of any description
where the town now stands, and
no person ever dreamed at that time
that the time was 80 near at hand
when they would see so many build
ings where they now see them. We
now have mail twice week. -Four
years ago we were glad to get 1t once

buildings were erected and three
more are under construction. The
present town consists of a store, a
postoffice, a shoemaker shop. two
blacksmith shops, a cooper shop, and

that in considering the pension claims
of dependent parents, the fact and
cause of death. and the fact that the
soldier left no widow or minor chill
dren having been shown, it shall be
necessary only to show that the par
ent or parents are without other
means of support than their own
manual labor, or the contributions
OF others not legally bound for their
support, A provision to this section
likes the time for the commencement
OF pension from the date of the pas
sage of the act, or from the date of
subsequent dependence, and declares
that the pension shall continue no
longer than the existence of such de-
pendence.
In this respect it differs from the
vetoed bill. which provided that no
pension should commence prior to
the passage of the act, and that, In
case of application hereafter made,
the pension should commence from
the date of filing the application. By
the second section of both bills, pen
slons at the rate of So per month are
guaranteed all persons who served
more than three months and were
honorably discharged, and who are,
or may hereafter be, suffering
from mental Tor physical disa-
ability. not the results of their
own vicious habits or their gross
carelessness. They differ, however,
in the language by which they define
the degree of disability which shall
erititle person to pension. On this
point the new bill reads: "Disabil-
ity which totally incapacitates them
for the performance of manuel labor"
whilethe language of the vetoed bill
read: disability which incapacitated
them for performance of labor in such
degree as to render them unable to
earn Ipport, and who are depen-
dent on their daily labor for sup.
port" The new bill also limits its
provisions 10 those who served in the
late reb billion, whereas the vetoed
bill extended to soldiers of any war
in which the United States was en-
gagged. The bill further differs from
the vetoed bill in the addition Sec
ton granting pension to the widow,
or minor children under eighteen
years Of age; or, in case there is no
widow or minor children, to a de-
pendent mother or father. without
regard to the cause of death of the
pensioner. The section also increases
the pension af minor children from
" to So per month, and declares that
the pension of idiots or helpless min
ors shall continue during life, or the
period of disability.
| The section in relation to the fee of
pension agents is amended by fixing
a maximum fee of $40, instead of
allowing a fee of So, with a discre-
tionary power in the Commissioner
OF pensions to increase the fee to SO,
as the vetoed bill provided.
The remaining section, providing
that no person shall he pensiOned
who is under political disabilities, or
who incurred his disability while en-
gagged in the military service against
the Uuited States. differs in no re
spect from the bill vetoed by Presi-
dent Cleveland.
