The Retirement Of Commits.
sioner Tanner.

The announcement that Corporal
Tanner had sent in his resignation
as Pension Commissioner to the
President was not surprise to n
majority of the people. It was
known that the relations existing
between Secretary Noble and the
Commissioner were such that would
certainly bring about such turn of
affairs in the Pension Office. 1t
seems that the most formidable OBJ
lection raised to the Corporaps ad-
ministration of the Pens;on.. 20 flee
was his propensity to DO entirely
too much talking about what ought
to be and would be done, while he
was Commissioner. His frequent
interviews in regard to the matter
of granting pensions were II little
out of order and very annoying to
the Administration. and to that and
the policy he pursued can be attri-
buted his retirement.
Mr.. Tanners administration of the
Pension Office was favorable to the
soldiers, among whom he was very
popular, and many persons charge
his retirement to that fact, more
than anything else. No one ques-
toned or doubted the honesty on
sincerity of the Corporal, and even
the President himself complimented
him upon being possessed of such
good qualities, yet his official actions
were such that were not strictly in
harmany with the policy of the Ad,
ministration, consequently it was
thought best that he retire, which
he did by sending in hisresignation
at the same time expressing his re
spect for the President and unhinch
ing fidelity to the Republican party
1t is not thought the action will af
feet the President to any consider
able extent, though great deal o.
dissatisfaction is expressed in Crane
Army Circles. Many of the old sol
diers will regret to hear of the chang,
in the Pension Office, as they con
sidered that Corporal Tanner wal
only doing what he thought was jus
and fair in regard to the granting o
pensions. and as a matter of cours,
) would rather have seen him retained
in the Office.

The New Dog Law.

Tho Lancaster Nec Era has
made the following careful synopsis
of the new dog law. 1t covers the
State:

These sums shall be paid to the
treasurer of the board of school di-
rectors in the different districts,
and shall be kept separate by the
treasurer, SO that he will know how

this source. This money shall con.
stitute fund from which persons
sustaining loss or damage to sheer

along with the costs necessarily in.

commissioners shall annually make
true return to the board of school
directors of the number of dogs
owned therein, together with the
owners names, and the school di-
rectors shall cause the tax to be col
lected in the same manner as and
along with the school tax.
Persons who have sustained loss
or damage to sheep may make com

and the latter shall notify the owner
of the dog or dogs causing the loss,
and if the owner does not appear 'as
soon as practicable and pay the loss
