The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1888-07-11

ICuABoD THOMAS of North Dux-
bury came to Montpelier last week to
execute his pension voucher for the
payment of new pension that had
been granted him, when it was dis
covered that his voucher was for sum
$500 too small. The papers were i'm
mediately returned to the pension agent
for correction. Mistakes of this kind
do not often happen, but not long since
a Vermont soldier received papers
filled out for $3.50 more pension than he
was entitled to. He returned them at
once for correction, not wishing to re-
ceive more pension than rightfully be-
longed to him.

Soldiers Homes.

The superintendent of the Soldiers
Home in Vermont says he has roll of
forty inmates, and that additions are
being made to the building which will
enable him by the LIST of September to
care for seventy inmates. Congress
has passed bill, and the president has
either signed it or allowed it to become
a law without his signature, that pro-
vides that all states which have estab-
lished, or shall hereafter establish, state
homes for disabled soldiers and sailors
of the United States, who are disabled
by age or otherwise, and by reason of
such disability are incapable of earning
living, shall be paid for every such
disabled soldier or sailor cared for in
such home at the rate of 800 a year.
With the encouragement given by such
law as this there is no reason why
every loyal state should not provide a
retreat for its disabled soldiers and
sailors. The entire expense of main
tanning such homes has been found to
be about $40 year for each inmate.
By the terms of this law, therefore,
the general government will pay more
than two-thirds of the amount neces-
sary to care for the veterans in state
homes.

Pension VetOes.

One of President Cleveland's veto
messages that the democratic news
papers of the country are publishing as
giving good reason for such action is
the bill granting pension to Mrs. Ran
dali of Connecticut, who is a worthy
widow, aged seventy-fve years and in
impaired health and needy circum-
stances. She claimed pension on ac-
count of the service of her deceased
husband in the war of 1872 The rea-
son that is so complete and satisfac-
tory to the democrats is stated in the
presidents veto message as follows
" There is no claim made that he re-
ceived any injury in the army, or that
his death, which happened long after his
discharge, was in the slightest degree
related to his military service. 1t does
not appear that he ever made any ap-
plication for pension or was ever
upon the pension roll. He died in
1881, leaving as his widow the benefit
ciary mentioned in this bill. In 1853
she married Randall, who died in 1873,
leaving her again widow" Such rea-
soning would be pertinent had the
soldier served during the rebellion, in

stead of in the war of 1872. PEN
sions are granted for service in the
latter war whether the soldier con-
tracted disease or not; and the widows
of soldiers of the war of 1912 are en-
titled to pension without regard to the
cause of the soldiers death. The presi-
dents argument that the soldier him
self never applied for pension is with
out force when we remember he states
that the soldier " died in 1881, ;" and the
first act of congress granting service
pension to soldiers of the war of 1912
was not passed until 1871, forty years
after his death. The president does
not place the ground for vetong this
bill on the fact that Mrs. Randall had
remarked since the death of the SOL
der, which was the only reason that
prevented her receiving pension under
the general law, for he could not con-
sistently do that, as he had approved
bill after bill granting pensions where
the beneficiary had remarked after the
death of the soldier. One such case
was that of Mrs. Williams of North
field, VT, that caused considerable COM
ment at the time she was pensioned.
The president refers to the petition de-
scribing Mrs. Randall's needy circum-
stances, signed by prominent citizens
of Norwich, Conn, where she resides,
and remarks: Gall this certainly com
mends her case to the kindness and be-
nevoence of the citizens mentioned,
and the state of Connecticut ought not
to allow her to be in needy circum-
stances.'i He adds: 1t seems to me,
however, that it would establish a bad
precedent to provide for her from the
federal treasury" We will thank some
democratic newspaper that has pub
lished this veto message as campaign
literature to tell its readers on what
ground the president vetoed Mrs. Ran
dall's pension bill. He does not state
the ground on which he based his ac-
ton. If he bases it on the ground that
the state where she resides fought not
to allow her to be in needy circum-
Stances" the same reason would apply
to every INDECENT person who has been
pensioned and shows the president to
be opposed to pensions on general
principles.

Questions Answered.

NJ. D., RICHMOND.-As you are re-
ceiving the highest rate of pension
given under the general law (S72 a
month";, you are not entitled to an in
crease.
w. S., NoRTHFIELD.-Con has
not passed the pension bill you men
ton. The many pension bills passed
by congress are what are called private
acts and not general laws.
N. NJ, GRoToN.-There is great de-
lay in the pension Office at the present
time in disposing of applications for
increase of pension. Your claim is not
delayed more than others.
G.. H., WEST ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
has not passed an act giving bounties
to soldiers, as you have been informed.
The last important bounty bill passed by
congress was in 1872. There has been
decision in the treasury department
that gives some additional bounty to a
few re-enlisted men.
L. T., STOwE.-A mother of soldier
is not entitled to pension unless she
was dependent, in part, at least, on her
son for support at the time of his death.
She might have some property and still
be dependent if her property was in a
home. If she owned a farm from
which she obtained her living she
would be said to be dependent upon
her sons labor to carry it on. If the
farm was worth several thousand dol
lars, however. she would not be said to
be dependent. Still there are so many
things to be considered in determining
the question of dependence, such as
the size of the family and the condition
and health of its members, etc., that
no set rule can be given. You had
better state your case fully to some
lawyer and follow his advice in the
matter

Waiting for the Bugle.

We wait for the bugle; the night dews are cold,
The limbs of tie soldiers feel iaded and old,
The field of our bivouac is windy and bare,
There is lead in joints there is frost in our hair,
The future is yelled and its fortunes unknown
As we lie with hushed breath till the bugle is
blown
At the sound of that buge each comrade shall
spring
Like released from the strain of the string
The courage, the impulse of youth shall come back
To Danish the chill of the drear bivouac,
And sorrows and losses and cares fade away
When that life-givng signal proclaims the new day.
Though the bvouac of age may put ice in our veins,
And no fiber of steel i'm our sinew remains;
Though the comrades of yesterdays march are not
here,
And the sunlight seems pale and the branches are
Though the sound of our cheering dies down to a
moan,
We shall find our lost youth when the bugle is
blown, II ". HigginSoR, in the CeHtarV.
