NOT TIME TO EXAMINE ALL CASES.
have now before me more than
one hundred special pension bills
which can hardly be examined within
the time allowed for that purpose.
NY aim has been at all times kind
dealing with bills of this charcter; to
give the applicant for pension the
benefit of any doubt that might arise
and which balanced the propriety Of
granting a pension If there seemed
any just foundation for their applica-
ton; but when it seemed entirely out
side of every rule in its nature or the
proof supporting it I have supposed ]
only did my duty in interposing an OBJ
lection.
1t seems to me that it would be well
if our general pension la~ ~s should be
revised with view of meeting every
meritorious case that can arise. Our
experience and knowledge of any ex-
isting deficiencies ought to make the en-
actment of a complete pension code
passable. In the absence of such re.
vision, and if pensions are to be grant
ed upon equitable grounds and with
out regard to general law, the present
methods would be greatly improved
by the establishment of some tribunal
to examins the facts in every case and
determine upon the merits of the ap-
plication.
OTHER vEToRs YESTERDAY.
The President also returned without
his approval the Senate bill to grant a
pension to Joel B. Morton, of Nebras-
ka, as dependent father of Calvin Nor
| ton.
The Senate bill to pension Polly III.
Smith, widow of Lieutenant John H.
Smith, of the Second Artillery, who
served in the army from 1854 to 1870,
was also returned without Executive
approval. In 1870 Lieutenant Smith
was placed on the retired list on ac-
count of bis disability resulting from a
fistula, thought to be the result of con-
tinuous riding in the saddle. in 1885
he died suddenly at Portland, Oregon,
of heart disease while attempting to
raise trunk to his shoulder. The
President says: 81 can not see how
the cause of death can be connected
with his service or with the incapacity
for which he was placed on the retired
list. The application made by the
widow for pension is still pending
before the Pension Bareau, and
understand that she, or her friends
prefer taking the chance of favorable
consideration there to the approval oi
this bill"

TIE. Tide Swelling,


More than 900 business firms of
Boston have signed the following
petition addressed to the senate
and house of represt natives:
"The undersigned citizens, mer-
chants and manu- lecturers of Bos-
ton, realizing the necessity of a re-
duction of the national revenue in
order that the public income may
correspond to tie reasonable ex-
penses OF the government, respect
tully petition your honorable body
to so revise the existing tariff laws
as to place upon the free list the
largest possible number of COM
modities that are used as raw; ma,
terial by the manufacturing indus
tries of this country. 1t is our be-
lief that by such oh nge our in
dustries would be greatly benefited;
that our export trade in manpfact>
ured articles would be largely IN,
creased, aud that consequently
American workingmen would OBJ
tain the advantages resulting from
more continuous work at better
wages"
81 This is significant. 1t shows that
the tide OF tariff reform is swelling,
not only in the west and northwest,
but in the east Ss well. Even the
crest manufacturing section OF
New England is beginning to sec
the tallacies of the argument III
favor Of high tariff, Thus the
tide continues to swell.

When the farmer rises from his

common flannel shirt, taxed 92 per

his shoes taxed So per cent. and

80 per cent, with knife and fork
taxed 80 per cent; drinks his coffee
with sugar taxed SO per cent; sea-
sons his food with salt, taxed SO
per cent; pepper, taxed 81 per
cent. He lo9ks around to his wife
and children all taxed in the same
way; and even the sunlight from
heaven that pours toto his dwelling
must come through window glasses,
taxed 50 per cent; and yet he
thinks he lives in the treest gov-
ernnlent under heaven. Then he
starts to work; puts on a bride;
taxed 35 per cent: on his horse,
md takes his horse that has been
shod-the nails used in shooting be-
ing taxed SO per cent. driven by a
hammer, taxed 90 per cent. and
bitches him to a pillow taxed So per
cent chains, taxed IS per cent;
and after the days labor is closed
and his family are all gathered
around he reads a chapter from his
Bible taxed % per cent. and kneels
to pray on humble carpet taxed
81 per cent; and then he rests his
weary limbs on a sheet, taxed As
per cent. and covers himself with
a blanket that has raid 104 per

broom with which his good wife
