GRAHAMs STORY.
The defendant testified that he was an at
torney at law; had been here since May or 4,
1887; had been employed by Mr.. Glover in the
contested election case and was called here to
do legal work for Mr.. Glover. After Glover
came back from his disastrous defeat for COVER

servants were directed to admit no one There

witness went there and attempted to get in and
finally went to the back door and up to Mr..
Glover's office, where he was at witness desk
with pistol in his pocket. They had some
words and parted company. Witness denied
that he was intoxicated or that any one had
ever seen him drink. He denied that he en-
tered the house after the 9Th. He claimed that
he was the attorney in the Patten cases. About
July the papers were turned over TO him and
he took them to his house, where he now has

not only in the Patten case, but in the libel case

demurrer in this case. He denied that the
papers we're in the chest of drawers. Witness
took the papers to his own house after MIS-.
Glover had dumped them in a waste basket.
On cross-examination witness said he had
come here under contract with Mr.. Glover. He
had appeared as Mrs Patterns attorney in q
number of cases, but admitted that he had re-
ceived no retainer. He said be had the papers
in his house and that he took them there for

He denied that the papers we've measurements

THEY WERE FIGHTING MEN.

The re-introduction of the Disability Pen
sion Bill will undoubtedly be followed by
revival of the abuse of the class whom it is
intended to benefit, by the -hatingpress
and politicians We shall again be told of
the number of "shirks, dead-beats, coffee
coolers, latter-day big-bounty patriots" etc,
and Benedict Arnolds of the E. S. Bragg
stamp viii again SANDER their comrades as
the scrapings of the poor-houses, the slums
and the jails."
In anticipation of this it is well to remind
the people of the country of the undeniable
fact that the survivors of the armies of the
Union represent more long and hard service,
more desperate fighting, more killed and
wounded than any set of men since wars
began and the sword commenced to devour.
Admitting that here and there is a man who
only saw Slight service, and perhaps escaped
without going into battle, it is neyerthe-
less beyond denial that, as body, the vet
Grams of the Union averaged more hard
bloody, long-continued fighting than any
soldiers who ever bore arms Estimated by
the usual standards of war the most sea
soned veterans Europe ever had were butraw
recruits compared to them.
There were in all-reduced to three
years. Standard, 32O,2 72 men in the service
of the United States during the war. These
men in four years fought the unprecedented
number of 2,26l battles and skirmishes, and
nearly so of these were battles in which the
fighting and slaughter were greater than il
customary in the great battles of Europe
which have decided campaigns and wars.
OF the men who enlisted 84,713-or more
than great European army-were actually
killed on the field of battle, to say nothing
of those who went to the hospitals or theil
homes to die, and nearly 100000 died o
disease. In all, 100000 of the young mer
who formed this great host persisted during
the great struggle.
One man in every 65 was killed on tn,
field of battle.
One in every Sc died of wounds received
One in every 10 died of disease
One an erery died 1gLiEe in The service.
One in every 10 was wounded.
This is an appalling array of losses, UMPIRE
cedented in the history-of wars.
In the face of these statistics it is inseusat
to talk of the survivors of the conflict beinl
made up in any degree of " skulkers,
shiTks, etc. The man who does SO no
only is insolent to brave and much deserving
men, but he shows himself stupidity ignOran
of the history of his country.

SENATOR ruRpIE,s SPEECH.

Hon. David Turpie, the new Democratic
Senator from Indiana, made his maiden
speech in the Senate last Friday, in support
of The Disability Pension Bill.
We publish the speech entire, for if ever
there was speech which deserved publica-
ton entire, unmutilated, uncondensed, it is
this one. It's thought and the method of
the thoughts expression make it remark
able Nearly every sentence is a brilliant
epigram Take for example few:
Emancipation as the result of the war was not
more benehcent than disarmament. II may be
said that these men only obeyed the order Of those
in authority What is authority without power !?
Where was the actual power at this moment of
military dissolution? With the bayonets-with
those who obeyed, not with those who gave the
order for retirement.
/ Regiments, brigades, divisions vanished away,
to be known thenceforth only legends of glo-
rious passage through the Red Sea of revolution.
Emancipation gave liberty to another race; dis
! armament preserved it for our own 1t were well
to consider TO look at this time with somewhat OF
fixed inspection upon the mountain hight of temp
1 tation and opportunity whereon these men stood
1 that day-that day the enemy yielded. They had
the sword. Why Was il Bheathed? They held the
| purse Why was it closed? The sunless treas
ure of Nations wealth theirs by right of sal
wage What moisty of 1t have they received oil
/ taken?
The temptation is strong to go on and
quote the whole speech, for it is hard to say
that any one paragraph is less worthy les.
| polished and forceful than another
Senator Turpie came to Washington with
a high local reputation as an orator. Gu
riosity was active as to the rank he weult
take among the strong and brilliant Thetori
clans of the Senate. That is now satisfied
He is peer of the foremost of them.

TIE NATIONAL TRIBUNE aims 10 be, in
the largest and best sense, all that its name
implies.
A Tribune was originally the chief Of the
Roman legion; then he became the protect
or Of the common people against The usurpa-
tons Of the aristocracy and the magistrates,
and for this purpose was clothed by the peo-
pie with great privileges and powers. Final
y he became, in the largest and widest
sense, the representative and spokesman of
the great mass Of the people. Al matters
relating to the public veal we're under his
immediate charge; he guarded the interests
Of the people, sternly antagonized the
schemers and plotters who sought 10 enrich
or aggrandize themselves at the public ex-
pense, and was active in everything that
promised to promote the welfare Of the en-
tire people. Much of all that WIS best in
the commonwealth Of Rome was the work
of the Tribunes, and they made a name
which is Synonymous with lofty patriotism
and infexible adherence to the rights and
interests Of the entire people.
We aim TO be-not the Tribune of any
section OF locality-but THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE; the vigiIant guardian Of the rights
and interests Of every man who claims
American citizenship; the advocate Of every
thing that viii promote the prosperity 0
the Nation, and make It's people happier
