The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1888-10-18

:" 20 years old and helpless as sn infant
must go to the poorhouse This is the way
Mr. Cleveland cares for him who has borne
the battle, and for bis widow and orphans
HoN. EDWARD ". GREESsl4S, Of Troy,
n. Y, was not in the army, but he is a true
friend of the comrades, and one Of the Demo
Gratis whom THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE de-
lights to honor. We hope he VIII be re-
turned to the 51st Congress, and kept in Con-
gress as long as he lives. His constituents
cannot improve on him.
WHAT excuse has Col. Matson given the
comrades of Indiana for not making any
effort whatever to pass the bills which he
reported and placed On the calendar? Fine
words butter no parsnips .; 8 favorable re-
ports pass no bills" The bills on the eaIen-
dar are just as dead as if they were gather
ing dust in the pigeoD-holes in the commit
tee rooms, unless they are pushed on the
floor of the House.
IF, Mr.. CleveIand's opinion, a woman's
having given a husband and four sons to
the eountry-having lost two of them On the
field of battle and the other three terribly
wounded-does not entisIe her to the teader
consideration of the Nation, what, in his
estimation, would be necessary to entitls
her to that consideration
WOULD Abraham Lincoln have vetoed
saIlieA BradIey's peusion bill, OF Andrew
johnson, OF Us. Grant, or R. B, Hayes, OF
James a. Garfield, or Chester A Arthur
No,-for the honor of American manhood be
it said-no man who ever sal in that exalted
seat would have been guilty Of that cold
blooded injustice but Grover Cleveland
THE Mills bill puts 40 different articles
of import on the free list, large portion Of
which are staples Of cur Northern farmers.
