Questions Answered.

a. G.. p, MORETOWN.-A soldier
does not forfeit his pension by commit
ting crime. A Mr.. Snow prosecuted
and obtained pension while serving
out sentence for murder in the second
degree in the state prison at Windsor.
He did not have much need of the
money, as his board and clothes were
furnished him by the state.
w. S., NORTHFIELD.-The soldiers
ought not to blame President Harrison
for appointing James Tanner COM
missioner of pensions, as it was on
their recommendation that he was APP
pointed; and when it was ascertained
that he was unfit for the Office the presi-
dent made haste to make change. He
did not retain an unfit officer to adjudi-
cate pension claims, as did the demo-
Gratis, when they kept Deputy-secretary
of the Interior Hawkins on the appeal
board all through the Cleveland admin
istration, when out of some 5000 de-
cisions rendered by him only thirty were
favorable TO the soldiers.
J. F., BURLINGToN.-Deputy-com-
missioner of Pensions Hiram Smith,
Jr., was among the number who had
their pensions rerated. En- Commits
sioner of Pensions Tanner has written
letter in which he speaks of Smiths
case as follows: Smith also issued an
order stopping all reratings. He did not
object to it until after | had rerated
him and put him up to So for the loss
of his arm and leg, thereby putting
S6,035 in his pocket l held, and still
hold, that he was clearly entitled to it !;
but is it not contemplate that a man
who had had that done for him, and
who had acquiesced cordially in his
own case, should now be so pronounced
against the rerating of poor devils who,
perhaps, from the effects of malarial
poisoning, chronic diarrhGa or some
disease of that kind, suffer twice as
much as man does from amputation?"

That Interview.

The Free Press recently published
an interview of its reporter with T. j.
Deavitt of Montpelier on the removal
of Commissioner of Pensions Tanner.
Last week the Argus printed the an
swer of Mr.. Deavitt to the question
What was the trouble with Tanner? as
follows: Z" He assumed to know more
about the pension business than his
superiOrs and subordinates. He re-
spected the opinions of neither, and
was discourteous to both. He rerated
and advanced the pension claims of his
friends to the neglect of the claimants
at large. He was wanting in knowl-
edge of the law and in executive abil-
ity. He was full of blunders. He
talked foolishly, and business accumu-
lated rapidly on his hands" The answer
of Mr.. Deavitt to the question whether
Tanner was too liberal in granting pen
sions the Argus did not print. 1t was
as follows: "Oh, no; that was not his
trouble. He was no more liberal than
the law required. He was no more
literally inclined toward pension claim
ants than Secretary Noble or President
Harrison. The rulings of Tanner. Bus
sey and Noble, that have been criticised
for being too liberal toward the soldiers
are no more so, with possibly one eX-
ception, than was the practice prior tC
the Cleveland administration. They
have simply remored some Of the oJSto.
cleS placed IN the rag OfpenSionS by thu
democratic administration"

ELECTRIC BITTERs.-This remedy is
becoming so well known and so popu-
lar as to need no special mention. All
who have used Electric Bitters sing
the same song of praise. A purer
medicine does not exist and it is guar
anteed to do all that is claimed. Elec-
trio Bitters will cure all diseases of the
liver and kidneys, will remove pimples,
boils, salt-rheum and other affections
caused by impure blood. Will drive
malaria from the system and prevent,
as well as cure, all malarial fevers.
For cure of headache, constipation and
indigestion try Electric Bitters. En-
tire satisfaction guaranteed or money
refunded. Price fifty cents and 81 per
bottle at any drugstore.

The Tanner Matter.

The following are some of the rea-
sons for the removal of Commissioner
of Pensions James Tanner that have
been published: "The fact is that,
notwithstanding the great shouting that
Tanner was doing such an immense
amount of work in the pension office,
there was less work by far being done
than had been accomplished by his pre-
decessor. Mr.. Tanner, in giving the
Office attention to the rerating and re-
issue of pensions had seemingly
neglected the granting of new ones or
of attending to the thousands of pen
sion claims now pending at the PEN
sion bureau. The corporal really
did not attend to his work. During his
first eighteen weeks in office, when he
should have been acquainting himself
with the Office machinery and the rou-
tine of the work, he was absent eight
weeks. And more or less since he has
not been at the Office as attentively as
the immense duties of so important a
department of the government required
of a man holding the important place he
did. There was regular clique formed
among his own clerks, which apparently
did not attract his attention, and if the
work of this clique really did come under
his attention he permitted their work tC
COON without his disapproval. In thi:
combination were twenty-siX pension
employees, and they all secured fol
themselves either new rating or bach
pension money amounting all the way
from $500 to $4,000. The recent in
vestigation into the administration o.
the hureau institutad nv Secretary
Noble unearthed the fact that at leas
twenty-three of these cases were con
trary to both the facts and the law ap
pertaining to them. But there was {
peculiar case which came directly unde
the attention of the president. Al
army officer in New York secured leav,

of absence and drew 800, saying he
was going to visit his wife. 1t is
known that he did not leave the city
that night, but for some reason or other
put up at French's Hotel. Three or
four days afterwards his body was
found floating in the bay. His skull
was fractured and his money and
watch gone. The coroner's jury of the
city of New York decided that he had
been killed. His widow some time
afterwards made application to the
bureau for pension on the ground
that the sufferings endured by her hus-
band while in active service had so
weakened his mind that he had com
mitted suicide. This application went
through the several examining and re-
vsing boards connected with the bu-
reau, and in every instance they
recommended that it should not be
granted. With all their disapproval it
was finally placed before the corporal.
He wrote on the back, This appli-
cation is approved The pension
officials brought the case to Secre-
tary Noble and he referred it to Presi-
dent Harrison. The president sent for
