The rush at the pension Office is over.
In three and three-Quarter days $1,000
pensioners were paid. the aggregate
amount disbursed being over 8, 125,O0Q
This money was distributed all over the
state. Pension Agent Ensley said Tues
day that there were at least 500 persons IN
Europe that draw money from his Office,
amounting TO over $4,000 each quarter.
These payments must be made along
during the quarter, as it takes almost
three weeks TO GET the papers here. At
least 1000 pensioners in the state failed to
send in their vouchers and these, too, viii
have to wait for their money. There ara
many persons who only draw their PEN
sion money each year
Speaking OF the rush on the first dav
Col. Ensey said that 2,63S persons had
been paid over the counter and 1000
veterans were paid by mail. This number
exceeds by 500 any previous payment and
no doubt will beat the record in the other
Offices OF the country. There were 399
new certificates filed during this rush
which will have TO be looked up and paid.
There Is one thing" said Col. Ensley,
that people do not think Of often in con.
nection with the payment of pensions
Seven out of ten OF those drawing the
money in the winter months spend it for
necessary articles. The vast amount OF
money distributed within such a short
period is of the greatest benefit to busi-
ness. Especially in the country, whers
the old soldiers are short of funds during
the winter the pension money is well
come" The pension office will, as usual,
paw moneys through the quarter. 1t viii
require about 8, 100000 at this agency to
settle with the old soldiers.

Still Glad and Proud.

The esteemed Journal usually takes its
life in its hands and it's foot in its mouth
when it resorts to figures. We have eau
toned it on this subject repeatedly, but
with singular persistence it comes back to
its field OF hAllucination. The latest phase
of its mania is a view of the disastrous ef-
fects of the new tax law, and in this it out
does all OF its former efforts. This is say
ing great deal, Tor some OF its former eff
forts were things that in ancient times
would have been accounted among
the seven wonders of the world.
The nature of its results may be
judged from its premises, and the
accuracy OF the latter may be seen in the
following comparison of the Journals
statements with the facts shown by the
official records of the state:

systems will be transported to New York

doubt all other railroads will carry
these supplies free. Cash contribu-

treasurer of state, will be promptly re-
mitted.
Indiana has been blessed with abundant
harvests and is prosperous. She is able to
give literally of her abundance to the re-
lief OF these starving millions across the
sea. Let us hope that she will do her full
share

his great personal popularity in Indiana

against them, will protect themselves.

THE friends of the Irish home-rule
sause will hail with delight the multiply
Ing indications of an approaching complete
reunion between the two factions of the
home-rule party. The decision OF the
Parnellites not to select formal leader is
Of great significance. The leaders of the
Two factions were, it is said, in conference
last week touching BALFOUR's Irish local
government bill, which he will introduce
next Thursday, and will cooperate In
sheir opposition to that measure. With
the restoration OF harmony in the Irish
party, and the practical certainty of Mr..
GLADsToNE's triumph at the approaching
general elections, the prospects for home
rule are, indeed, much brighter than ever

The democratic mass meeting at the
Cooper institute in New York on Thurs
day evening to protest against Senator
HnL's ''snap convention" was an impos-
ing demonstration. 1t is not easy to over
rate it's significance. Every living demo-
cratic ex-mayor of New York signed the
call along with many other men who have
long been eminent in the party councils,
and some of whom have rendered distin-
Fuished public service. These are the
men whose moral and financial support
will be necessary to democratic success in
New York this year. and it is idle to say
that, because they are not experts in the
sharp practices Of ward politics. they are
without power to influence the course of
political events. They represent very
largely the brains and character of the
democratic party Of New York, and if the
democratic managers ignore these ele-
ments Of the party they will invite party
disaster as overwhelming as it will be de-
served. This proceedings of the meeting
were dignifed and temperate. The re-
marks of Mr. OSWALD i0TTENDoRFER OF the
New York Staais Zeitung, who called the
meeting to order, and of FREDERIC CoU-
DERr, president of the Manhattan club,
who occupied the chair, were well con-
idered and forcible, and the resolutions
In every respect admirable and perfectly
suited to the occasion. The meeting cam
not fail to have an excellent effect. If
Senator HrLL's committee ignores the re-
quest for postponement of the state con-
yention it viii assume a grave response

MCKINLEY raised the tariff on barley
from 10 to 80 cents a bushel ostensibly to
benefit the farmers of western New York,
whose votes we're wanted for the G. o. p.
But the New York farmers, like the wool
growers, have not been benefited by
Mr.. McKINLEY's efforts, in their
behalf, and for like reasons. They
are receiving less for their barley
this year than ever before, because the
demand has fallen off; and the demand
has fallen off because the brewers have
been forced by the heavy duty on Can
adian barley to substitute corn for barley
for mailing purposes. The New York
barley growers hence find themselves
Obliged to sell their fine barley, once used
for malt, to be used as feed and must
market it in competition with the
ordinary western grades. The farm
ers of New York are said to
be almost unanimously in favor of the
reduction of the duty on barley to the
rate which prevailed before Ma. MCKINLEY
made bis tariff. Probably the best thing
for them would be the placing of barley
on the free list. This would stimulate the
brewing interest, and create demand for
all the barley the New Workers could pro-
duee, in addition to the Canadian product.

Iii reported from Washington that
Representative jason Brown will move an
investigation into the conduct of Judge
WooDs in the Coy and Dudley cases re-
gardless of the action OF the senate upon
his nomination to the circuit bench. If
the senate refuses to print the testimony
taken by its judiciary committee IN this
matter and to consider this nomination in
open session the house should certainly
order an investigation. 1t is important
that the country should have all the evil
dence which establishes Judge WOODS
unfitness for the preferment which Presi-
dent HARRISON has rendered him, and
Ihould understand that this evidence was
IN the possession of the president when he
appointed WOoDs and of the senate when
It confirmed him, if it does confirm him.

Just received and published the following
characteristic letter from the local agent
of the American school book company:
AMERICAN Book COMPANY, 1924 Arch-st., !
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. l, 1892.
My DEAR FRIEND-The principals Of
our city schools have the ordering of all
books from the official list. Now a word
from you in my behalf to every principal
in your section would help me very much
in selling our books.
We have, as you will see by the in
closed catalogue. the best books in the
official list. Your early attention to this
matter will place me under lasting obliga-
tons to you. Yours always,
WILLIAM LINN.
1t is not probable that any person of
sound mind and disposing memory would
have any difficulty in guessing what this
carefully worded communication means.
The surprising thing is that the recipient
published the letter instead of calling at
1924 Arch-st and opening negotiations.
