EDITOR INDEX: In reply to certain
false statements concerning Jerry
Simpson, our candidate for congress,
which are being circulated over the dis
trict, we, his neighbors, who know the
facts concerning him, wish to make the
following statements:
1st. Mr.. Simpson is not an infdel
Although not member of any relig-
lous body. his religious views are those
held by the Unitarians, or similar to
them.
I'd. He was not in the Confederate
army, but served three months in the
Union army, and was discharged on ac-
count of sickness.
Sd. He is thoroughly in favor of law
and order, and not, in any sense, inclin-
ed to anarchy.
4th. He never put up any kind of a
job on the farmers in regard to cane
for the sugar mill, but used his efforts
in their interest, urging them to hold
out for a certain price for their cane,
which they considered reasonable one:

4 Sure Thing Fails.

Apropos Of betting on sure things, an
incident occurred on Brighton Beach a
few years ago which shows the element
Of uncertainty is always present in a more
or less degree. During q race day a
horse called B~everwyck fell at the head
Of the home stretch and raj pronounced
dead by the veterinary who examined
him. The body was drawn aside and the
sport went on.
As the shades Of evening fell and the
stands showed an arrayof empty benches.
one Of the track attaches walked up the
stretch toward the stables. He noticed
the body Of BeverwyCk had disappeared,
and was astonished when he arrived at
the horses stall to find him with his
head in the feed box. He kept his own
counsel, closed the door and went back to
the clubhouse. A band Of choice spirits
were gathered there, and the subject Of
conversation was the sudden taking off Of
Beverwyck. This was the opportunity for
the newcomer. "Beverwyck isn't dead"
he remarked confidently.
"where are your eyes?" wal the re-
joinder. HE dropped dead at the head
Of the stretch and his body lies there
now"
Here's $50 that says he's alive" an
swered Beverwyck's friend.
The other covered It and the party ad-
journed to the stables.
Throwing open the door Of the stall,
there lay Beverwyck, dead as stone. 1t
appears he revived, walked to his stall,
and on attempting to eat, the food lodged
in his outlet and checked him to death.

mistaken zeal upon the enemy at Chancel-
lorsville? Would they, recoling from that
defeat, have raced 200 miles, under burn
ing sun, TO encounter the enemy again
Mt Gettysburg, and fight him so stub
bornly rs to lose more of their number
killed and wounded than England has lost
in any of her great wars? What ineilable
impudence il is for some scribhler who has
sat at home in inglorous ease 10 prato about

ing Wilderness drew their shattered ranks
together to have them thinned out by 100
killed the next day, closed up again for
another attack on the enemy and another
awful loss the day following and so on for
so terrible days, until less than 100 of the
original regiment reached the James! Was
that the work of the men who thought of
money? What inducemcnt would all the
money in the United States Treasury he for
any man to 80 through the bloody hell that
stretched from the Rapidan to the James in
May, 1864? 1t is not for a moment true
" that other soldiers have fought as bravely.'
No army ever mustered on this planet
went through an ordeal that approached the
Wilderness campaign.
Now because the men who did this ask to
be given the same treatment as was accorded
those who served in the Revolution, the War
of 1912 and the Mexican war, hysterical
ranters like the editor of the Bulletin brand
them rs soulless mercenaries.
Because man has served the country
with inter disregard of himself is he thereby
estopt from asking that the country shall
now treat him as well as it has those who
have rendered il much less service? What
nonsense to say So
No service pension bill proposed will begin
to pay back to the men who fought through
the war merely the wages and pecuniary
advantages which they sacrificed at the call
of the country. Why, because they were
selfdepyiDg, should they be called upon to
make all the sacrifices? Why must they
always be content with empty praise and
cheap compliments? No one else sacrificed
anything TO preserve the National life. The
whole burden must fall on those who gave
the most They must not only have given
their lives, their health, their strength, their
years of young manhood, their opportunities
FOR advancement, to the country, but they
must be denied the right to ask the Nation
to lessen the amount Of this sacrifice by q
partial repayment out of its OVERLOOKING

early announced his belief that service in the
army did not fit man TO be a policeman, and
he was opposed to combining the selection Of
officers from that class. He also made several
dismissals from the force of veterans who had
served accoptably for considerable time. Very
many, especially in the GAR, considered
these dsmissaIs arbitrary, and unwarrauted
by the facts.
The question Of n successor to Commissioner
Hiue now aRitates tho people Of the District.
The ex-Coufcdcrato element in the city has
put forth Gen. Cadmus VI. Wilcox, who com
mandod division in the Army Of Northern
Virginia and who is now an $500 clerk in one
Of the Departments, to which position he was
appointed under President Cleveland. 1t is to
be hoped that President Harrison will not
seriously consider this candidacy. There
are plenty Of Democrats in Washington who
were loyal during the war and many who
served honorably in the Union army, and one
OF these should be selected to succeed Mr.. lime
We believe the President will do this. His
choice Of Mr.. HHc was, no doubt, largely in
fluenced by the fact that that gentleman had
been good soldier, and the same consideration
will influence him in selecting his successor.

covERNMESr OF THE CAPITAL.

II is mistake to say that because the citi-
zens of the District of Columbia arc denied the
right Of suffrage that they dwell in n region of
unbroken political calm. On the contrary, it
seems that they concentrate on the few officers
that they have anything 10 do with the inter
est which in other communities is ditfused over
u much larger number. And the principal Of
these are the Commissioners, who are the auto
Gratis of the municipality, and combine in
themselves the functions and powers which in
other cities are discharged by the Mayor Al
dermcn, CounCilmen, Police aud Fire Com
missioncrs, etc. The law provides that these
shall DO appointed By the President, and con
frmcd by the Senate, and consist Of one Re.
publican citizen of tho District one Democratic
citizen, aud one officer detailed from the En-.
gineer Corps. The latter Is supposed to have
no politics, and so by acting as a balance wheel
between the others, secure n perfectly non
partisan administration, besides giving 10 the
management Of the public works the high abll
ity aud perfect integrity which are to bo ex-
pected from officers of the Engineer Corps. II
