Why Not Sign Your Name.

Isn't it strange that In nine cases
out OF ten when any CITIZEN desires to
air his views through newspaper, he
declines to sign his own name TO the
communication. Yet this class of
men are the foremost TO blame the pa
pers for sins of omission or commits
sion. Whenever they wish TO say any
thing OF g decisive character, they pre-
fer TO let the paper shoulder the re-
sponsibility. Every newspaper office
could reveal striking Cases OF moral
cnwardice on the part of very good
citizens in connection with this sab
ject. Most anybody is willing and
perhaps little anxious to make a per-
sonal attack ON somebody or some-
thing, provided, Of course, the name
OF the instgator is not made public
The moral 10. no man should write a
comm lnication to which he is afraid
to offer his signature. Of course no
newspaper would print communica-
ton the author OF which is unknown.
All synonymous communications are
consigned to the waste basket. Yet
| invariably, almost, the request Is made,
Don't print my name. a

dare TO make the charges over their

newspapers are for, 20 force measures

that the newspaper has any liability
whatever. Men who are unwilling to
shoulder a responsibility Themselves
should not ask others to do it, not
even a newspaper.

PENSION EK&IDS.

The following from the st Louis
ia at least one republican who fayors
putting check to the fearful pension
frauds; The report of the commits
sionsr ofpensions shows an expenditure
Of 1890 900 during the last fiscal
year, and the estimate for toe next
year is $165 ,0o0,00O This heavy and
increasing burden is borne by the peo-
pie without. any complaint go far AS
the really deserving pensioners are
concerned, but there is u feeling thai
. considerable proportion OF the money
Is paid to men who have not sufficient
claim to such assistance, and this
abuse OF patriotic and beuefeent
system should be stopped. There are
row $4,000 pensioners, an increase of
2o0O00 in the last year. 1t is difficult
&c believe that there is any good rea-
son why the claims should continue to
multiply when such long time has
elapsed sincs the close of the war. The
dicovery Of disabilities after SO many
years carries with it more or less suspi
cioa Of crookedness: and it is a well
known fact that the pension agents
cause numerous applications to he
mado on technical ground and for fees
that thsy involve. There is no disposi-
tion on She part of the people 70 deprive
any soldier OF what Justly aud fairly
belongs 30 aim. They are willing to
pay all that is necessary to relieve those
who ara unable to sarn 3 living, but
they ara not willing 10 be taxed for the
benefit OF those who are able to help
themselves. This p-nsion burden should
es diminishing instsad OF increasing. If
tbs laws are 80 liberal in their provisions
that tbs appropriations must 60 on
growing every year, then the laws
should be 30 amended as to check
the outlay aud reduce the expenditure,
and if the fault lies in too generous
Interpretation Of all she laws, then a
more economical and judicious method
OF adjusting claims should De adopted. |"
