A sensation was created on the
floor of the House Friday by a few
remarks made by Representative
Stone, of Missouri, while a batch of
private pension bills were being dis
cussed. Mr.. Stone said that pension
legislation was despoiling the people
under the name Of patriotism, and
denounced the demands of the G. A.
r. He also stated that at the last
election the Presidency had been put
up and sold to the highest bidder.
"Thank God" continued Mr.. Stoue,
"there was one grand man who de-
clined to be party to such a sale.
Though he fell, he fell bearing the
reputation of wise and incorruptible
craftsmanship, and enjoying the re-
