returned safely. though two of the party were

After the war closed our young veteran be-
gan the study of law, and was admitted TO
the bar in 1870 going to Dakota the year fol-
lowing, where no soon began his battle of life
in the bloodless field OF politics, making the
unusual record of candidate before five con-
ventions in six years, beginning with 81; was
successful in receiving the nomination in four
of them, and elected each time
He was the Delegate from Dakota i'm the 10th
and 50th Congresses, and worked like Trojan
for its admission as two States He was always
on the alert for anything that promised aid in
that direction, and indeed the lions share of
the credit for the final victory over those who
opposed tho division, and the vast change in
the political status of the two Dakotas seems
fairly TO belong TO him.

We have decided upon securing 100000
more subscribers and 10 do it viii give away
10000 OF the famous Trenton watches 10
club raisers
We will send watch FREE, post paid, TO
every club raiser who sends Us a club Of
ONLY TEN subscribers for one year.
This is an opportunity never before
offered. because this watch is not cheap
catch-penny nake-shift, but a genuine, full
jeweled patent-leyer movement IN dia-
mond-silver case, warranted for Is years.
Diamond-silver is n compound metal, as
Its name indicates, composed of pure silver
and nickel. 10 give it hardness and color.
IL is not plated, but solid. so il wears the
same clear through aud is so warranted.
Now, who wants one? There are just
10000 Of them TO give away. and we do not
anticipate much trouble in disposing of them
on these terms.
An hours work viii get one. We hope
our friends viii appreciate the opportunity.

SOUTH DAKOTA.
South DakOta's Delegation to Congress.
Three Men Who Served in the Field
and Have Since Won Distinction in
Civil Life.

Of the four delegates from South Dakota TO
the National Legislature-two Senators and
two Representatives-thre were soldiers. The
other Senator r. z. PettigreW) was only II
years old when the war broke out, and so
hardly old enough to shoulder gun.
"And," said he, E" am not right sure that I
would have done so if bad been old enough
in fact, might have skipped to Canada; for it
takes an immense amount of courage as we'll as
patriotism for a man to face DEATH And ap-
preciating this fact, as / do most thoroughly,
/ have the greatest respect for those who did
it, in order to preserve the best Government
on earth. and / will never fail while l have
a voice in legislation to do all in my power
to promote the very best pension legislation
possible. / can face the music whether
/ could face cannon or not, and / think we
owe good pension bill to the soldier, in the
first place, and, in the second, it would be
good way to dispose Of part Of the surplus,
and set it to circulating among the people"
Mr. Pettigrew is the youngest man in the
Senate, being just three months younger than
Senator Kenna, of West Virginia. He is a tall,
rather slender, well-built and graceful man,
with brown hair and beard, apparently un-
touched by Times frost, with handsome, genial
face and an exceedingly gracious manner. He
was born in Vermont, but was educated in
Wisconsin. at the same school with Senator
SpOOner, who is another one of the Senate kids,
and only five years older than Mr.. Pettigrew.
They are bosom friends as well as old school
mates.

RAIsETHE MONUMENT TO GEN. LOGAN


RAIsETHE MONUMENT TO GEN. LOGAN.
This time, when the mOurners for the Lost
Cause are in sackcloth and ashes for jeff
Davis, and Governors and Legislatures of
Southern States are extolling the arch
traitor for highminded patriot, is a very
fitting opportunity for the loyal peo-
pie of the country to assert their prin-
ciples and their detestation of all that
JEFF Davis represented by completing the
memorial to the greatest of polunteer
soldiers-Gen. John A. Logan. No stronger
rebuke can be given this odious idolatry of
treason than by conspicuously honoring the
man who stands for all time as the highest
type and representative of the loyal
citizens of the Nation who left everything
to spring TO arms in defense of the Nations
imperiled life, and who fought suffered aud
died as no men ever did before to rescue the
country from the fate TO which Davis and
his gang of conspirators bad condemned it.
John A. Logan stands in the strongest
possible contrast 10 JEFF Davis He was ms
vehement in his loyalty, ms gallant and de-
voted in his battling for the Union as
Davis was dark, malignant, desperate and
inscriptions in his Vaccinations against
the National life To honor him is TO honor
patriotism, unquailing courage on the field
Of battle and the highest soldiership in
every emergency. 1t is to honor every man
who, like Logan, left home and ell that
home offered, to do and TO die, If need be,
for the eternal right"
Comrades, let us answer the disloyal demon
STATIONS in the South by simultaneous effort
to complete the sum necessary TO erect n mon
ument to John A. Logan, which will be for all
time q testimonial 10 the valor and sacri-
flee Of the volunteer soldier in thwarting
the treason of men who like Davis laid
murdcrous hands on the country's life.
Let every Post which has not sent in
a contribution make it the special
business Of the next meeting TO raise one
and let it be in proportion to its dctestation
Of the jeff Davis mania. Let those which
have already sent in contributions increase
them, as an expression of their repugnance
TO the monthings of the mourners for the
Lost Cause
Comrades, act at once. Send your contri-
buttons to THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, and
they win be properly acknowledged.
We have already received $4,000, and
should have $4,000 more, and at once.

SENATOR Morgan, of Alabama year or
two ago, distinguished himself by speech
in opposition TO the tariff, on the ground
that IL raised wages, so that il was impossible
for farmers to employ help nj profitable
rates Last week he made another bid for
notOriety by speech in the Senate in which
he asserted that ii was impossible for the
whites and blacks TO live together in this
country, and that the best thing for all
parties was TO send the negro 10 Africa,
where they could find pleasant homes and
prosperity in the Free State of Congo.
There is none who understand the folly
OF this sort Of talk better than Senator Nor
gans own constituents. Whatever they
may think of the negro politically and
socially, they are keeuly alive to his value
rs a laborer, and nothing would be more
certain TO incur their bitter ill-will than any
scheme which would really promise to take
him out of the country. Every little while
some man who goes into the South TO engage
n large number of laborers from some work
in distant region, finds himself driven out
of the neighborhood, with a threat of sum
mary hanging if he returns. Several have
been actually mobbed for enticing negroes

The third section reads:

Ihe third section reads:
Sec. g. That IL any officer or enlisted man who
served three months or more in the Army Navy
of the United States during the late of the re-
bellon. and who honoraby discharged has
died, or shall hereafter die, leaving widow, minor
child, or children under Is years of age, In
there be no widow minor child or children, n
dependent mother or father, as such dependency
is defined under section of this act, such widow
minor child or children, mother, or father, shall
be placed upon the pcnsionrol Mt the rates estab-
lshed for them by law without regard to the cause
of death of such officer or enlisted man: ProUded
That the cause of death of such officer enlisted
man was not or is not due To violation of the civil
or military laws or the result of vicious habits, and
that said widow married TO the deceased pen
sioncr prior 20 the pnssagc Of this act All pensions
granted TO widows under this act shall take effect
from the date of the death of the husbands of such
Widows but not dating back OF the passage of this
act.
The changes in this are the prescribing
that the pensioner shall have served ut least
three months; have been honorably dis
charged, and that his death was not due to
violation of law or vicious habits.
Sec. reads
Sec. 4. That from the date OF the passage Of this
act tho increase of pensions for minor children
shall he at the rate of 81 per month instead of 81
per month, MS now provided by law. and In case "A
minor child Is insane, idioiic, otherwise help
less, tho pension shall continue during tho life of
said child, or during tho period of such disability.
This is the same as in the former bill,
except that the rate of increase is made 81
instead of s..
Section s of the former bill, which modi-
fled Section 4716 Revised Statutes--which
prohibits the granting of pensions to anyone
who voluntarily served in the rebel army
so as to prevent its applying to this act, has
been stricken out, and consequently all who
voluntarily served in the rebellion are ex-
cluded from its benefits.
The bill will now have to undergo discus-
sion in the Senate, and possibly considerable
modification.
