SENATOR POND is seemingly very anx-
ious to have the Memorial Hall built with
the money which is to be returned to the
state from the national government. He
is pretty severe on the ''old soldiers" ad-
vocates who want the money turned over
to the veterans. "a plague on both your
houses" is the reply TIE people should
make The money if returned to the
state should be restored to the funds
from which it was borrowed. The wings
added to the capitol furnish abundant
room for the Historical Society or any
other society which may justly ask that
the state furnish it quarters. In fact
one third of the space is not yet utilized.
Wisconsin's experience in building
Science Hall and the capitol wings should
make the legislature little chary in
furnishing new opportunities for pecula-
| ton.
| Senator Pond sets at rest the cry that
old soldiers are suffering for the necessa-
ries of life. He says there are ten SOL
diers and seven soldiers widows in poor
houses in this state and they are placed
there because their habits would not per-
NIT their being provided for otherwise.
The state can raise by counties 100000
per year for the benefit of old soldiers.
The legislature appropriated $4,000 fol-
the Waupaca Home. The national gov
eminent pays 800 per capita yearly fol-
the inmates. There are about $2,000,OOC
per year paid out in pensions. With
these generous provisions there would
seem to be but little need of making fur
ther demands on the plea of need.
Senator Pond is the champion of the
Memorial Hall. The plan to distribute
the money among the old soldiers has &
multitude of champions. The people
have no champion at all either within the
legislature or without it. They have ne
rights demanding consideration, it seems
