CORPORAL TANNER.
The Ex-Comm sioner Writes spicy
Letter to Private DalzelL

Tho Ex-Commis sioner Writes spicy
Letter to Private Dalzell
In a confidential letter written to
Private Dalzell. of Caldwell, o., ex-
Commissioner Tanner says:
want to say to you that the President never
said one word to me about you. can not come
out and say that publicly; you must rot quote
it.; but II is Gods truth. While Commissioner
issued two orders which l thought, and still
think, were mighty good ones: FIRST, that the
5000 men on the pension roll at less than III q
month should all, unless they had had med
ical examination within a year, be ordered Tor
examination before their home board, with
view to putting them up at least 81 per month
pension or dropping them OF the rolls; for it
was my opin on that for a man who is worthy
of any pension at all dollar a week is small
enough. My second order was that thereafter,
in the settlement OF pension cia IN, the order
of private, If he was man OF good character
and standing. should amount to as much in the
settlement OF his claim as the word OF man
who had perhaps worn the shoulder straps of q
Second Lieutenant. The Acting Commiss oner
revoked both of these orders, but as ne is
man who dare not say his soul is his own,
he did it under the instruction OF Noble
or Bussey. How under heavens name ara
they going TO make the boys believe that there
is to be no change in the policy? Smith also
issued an order stopping all reratings. lie did
not object to 1t until after had rerated MIN
and put h m up to s72 for the loss OF his arm
and leg thereby putting sG 90 in his pocket. j
held he was entitled to it; but is it not con-
temptible that a man who had that done for
him should now be so pronounced against the
rerating OF poor dev Is who suffer twice as
much as man does from amputation? Ihave
not the slightest doubt but that would haVo
been removed if had not resigned; in fact
know it. II the boys, and particularly those
in Ohio, acquicsce, why, it is safe to say that
Tanner will be left where he is-in the soup.
Among the promotions announced in the Pen
sion ONCE is that of Harrison l.. Bruce, ot
Colorado, to be a member OF the Board OF
Pension Appeals in the Secretarys office AT
1900 year. He had been detailed for duty In
the Secretary's ofice for some mouths, aad
was appointed ny the Secretary one OF tho
commission which investigated the Pension
ONCE. Don't you think it would have looked
little hetter if they had waited at least until
after 1 had passed out OF official life before
they promoted h m? Some will be cynical
enough to reflect upon cause and effect, service
and reward. l have written you with great
freedom. Don't give me any cause to regret II
by saying any thing about this letter. II Is TO

rolling combination, the leasiug merd-
bers OF which prevent relief to the
people in any direction by threaten
ing the retaliation of a general aban-
donment OF high duties as n punish
ment for yielding at any point.
This menace has a lessened effect
upon the wooden manufacturers, who
see ruin to their industry as the result
OF carrying alone the handicap OF
taxed raw material in competition
with the mills OF more enlightened
countries. They are moving for free
wool in a manner which promises to
crack the keystone of the tariff"
President Grant stated the true
economic view of this question in his
annual message for 1874 in saying:
The introduction free OF duty OF
such woods as we do not produce
would stimulate the manufacture of
goods requiring the use of those we
do produce, and therefore would be u
benefit to home production. And
again in his message for 1875: ''The=e
duties Ton raw materialsl not only
come from, the consumers al home, but
act as a protection TO foreign man
ufacturers of the same completed
articles in our own and distant
markets.
There is not a moro absurd, bar
barous and hurtful tax laid in this
country than the tariff on wool. 1t
hurts the farmers, it handicaps the
manufacturers and it makes clothing
dear.-N, Y. World.

Preparing for the saengerfcst.

The ceremonies of laying the corner
stone of Music Hall, in which the coming
Sengerfest will be held in New Orleans,
occurred recently in the presence Of
large concourse of citizens. The cere-
monies were preceded by grand pro-
cession of civic and military orgauiza-
tions. Many buildings along the line of
march were handsomely decorated. The
ceremonies consisted of addresses in
German by DR.. B. Mas and in Eugli sh
by Judge w. w. Howe and vocal con-
tributions by local and visiting singing
societies. Mr.. Jacob Hassinger, presi-
dent of the Sac ngerfest was master OF
ceremonies. This hall, when completed,
will have a seating capacity Of 5000 in
the auditorium and 1900 on the stage.

Protectionists Badly Scared.

In recent circular the American
Protective Tariff League says:
You no doubt realize with US how small is
our majority in Congress, and the small ma
jority by which many seats are held. The
free-traders make no secret of their intention
TO make the hght more earnest than ever, and
are already at work in that direction. To Of
set their efforts this league proposes to re-
double its labors, and not only check the nfiu-
ence OF its opponents at every hand, but TO
carry the war INTO Africa
The protectionists are badly scared;
no doubt about it. Holding Congress
by a narrow margin. and with a war
on hand between the New England
manufacturers on the one side, and
the Pennsylvania coal and iron me-
nopolists and the Ohio wooi-growers
on the other, the situation is certainl r
very serious for the high-taxers
