THE PENSION ROBBERY.

We see it stated that 33,000 new pensions were granted eX-union sol diers during the month of October. At an average of Sl0 per month each, this would amount to S3,960, ,OOO q year increase. As the yearly pen sion roll foots up now nearly one hundred and fifty million dollars, if this rate of increase is kept up for another sixteen months, (until end of this Republican administration) amount for pensions alone will foot up over two hundred million dollars a year, and will require tax of S16.5 on each head of a family in the United States to pay it,
 As consumers alone have to pay this pension money, through the tar if (ndirect taxes) the South pays over one third of this enormous sun, from which we receive no benefit
 Think of this, ye men who labor daily for living. Ii has been pro ven that thousands of these pensions are fraudulent, and yet the Republi- can party continues such claimants on the roll, and is addlng hundreds of others-all for political effect.
 Our only hope is to turn the ras- calls out, " and get rid of these fraud ulent pensions. Democracy will do this, next year.
