Another Pension Scheme.

How numerous are the schemes to make
the government truly paternall If the al
lance could have its way the government
would own all the railroad and telegraph
lines. and would establish warehouses in
which farmers might store their crops
thus avoiding the necessity for building
barns and graneries for themselves.
And man named Vaughn, out in Omaha,
wants all the ex-slavES provided with PEN
sions. His scheme wcSld require an ex-
penditure OF vast sum annually. AL
ready the government pays in pensions to
ex-soldiers about $19OOOo,OOO a year, and
will soon be paying $3.50, 100000.
And there is a scheme on foot to get the
present congress to retire government
clerks on three-fourths pay after thirty
years service. 1t would not be surprising
il the scheme should succeed. But why it
should, is not easy to see.
Government clerks are as we'll paid as
any other class Of workers Of equal intelli-
gence. And they are not compelled to stay
inthe government service. In fact, they
wouldn't stay there if they could earn more
elsewhere. There is just as much reason
why the government should take care of a
mechanic or a field hand after he has
worked thirty years as there is that it
should take care of a clerk in its service.
The factis, the people are already too heav-
lily burdened with taxes Pensioning freed
men and government clerks might be the
feather that would break the camel's back
But il the government consents to build
warehouses for farmers it may be induced
to take care of its clerks in their old age.
