HOW THE SOUTH LOOKS AFTER ITS VET

Georeia's Confederate pension system,
under which disabled veterans received
from 50 to So per month, according to
the disability, is highly creditable to the
state. but it should accept and MAINTAIN
the home near this city in order to COM
plete the good work. 1t will be OF In
terest to review the situation in other
Southern states.
Virginia led in the movement and esta6-
lIshed a Confederate home at Richmond,
for the support of which the state ex-
pends $4,000 a year. Pensions to the
amount of s., 900 annually are also paid
Alabama has no home, but pays S2lo,-
600 year in pensions.
Arkansas has home at Little Rock
built by private subscriptions, supported
by state aid. 10000
Florida has no home. but pays $4,000 a
year to disabled COnfederates who have
resided in the state fifteen years.
Mississippi is without home, but has
made liberal provisions for her INDECENT
and disabled Confederates.
Missouri pays no pensions, but move
ment IS on foot to raise 100000 to en-
dow a home without state aid.
MARYLAND has n home costing SiO,OOO
near Baltimore, aided by the state to the
extent of $40, 900 annually.
Louisiana has home near New Orleans,
and the state grants $4,000 year.
North Carolina not only pays pensions,
bat has appropriated SAL, 900 for home.
South Carolina pays about $oO,OOO IN
pensions, bnt has no home.
Texas has home established by sub
scription. 1t costs SO, 500 year.
Tennessee has established home at the
old home of Andrew Jackson. "The Her
mltage," the state having given 47o acres
of land and $4,000 for Improvement 10
1889. The Legislature In 1891 approprlat-
ed $4,000 for building and 50, wv a
year for its support. and in addition 500,
600. or so much thereof as may be neces-
sary for expenditure annually In PEN
sions, which range from 81 so to SO per
mouth. 1t IS thought that S2o.OOO per
year will cover the pension list.
OF all the Southern states Kentucky

ConfedeTates.

Rasamhlea an Alligator.

A boy fourteen years old, who lives
near Waycross, Ca, is said to greatly re-
semble an alligator. "Scales Of a delicate
texture can be seen all over his body. He
has a fat head long, wide month and
eyes like an alligator. His legs aud aims
are fiat and crooked at the joints he can
neither talk nor walk, but bellows and
crawls like a reptile. When he gets
angry, he foams at the mouth and throws
his feet around and makes o loud noise
like the Kissing of an alligator"

FORE THE THIRD PARTY
FRENCH LICK SPRINGS, IND June 26 -
Judge Walter O. Gresham will not be the
standard bearer of the Peoples party in
the coming national campaign, all reports
to the contrary notwithstanding.
In an interview to-day the persistent
use OF his name as possible Presidential
candidate in connection with the Third
party movement was called to his atten-
tion. He said.
al have not permitted and shall not
permit the use OF my name at the Omaha
convention. without declining an honor
that has not been offered, will say that
my name will not go before that con-
ventlon with my consent. / have not,
as reported, informed any of the leaders

Who Are The Free Traders

But who are our free traders They are
not found much among our industrial
classes, certainly not among our working
men and producers. They are composed
of pro slavery theorists, who can never
forget what they learned before the war F;
doctrinsires and dreamers, who have
supreme contempt for facts and practical
results foreign importers, who can see
nothing beyond their own personal gains
newspapers which are the subsidized at
torneys of foreign manufacturers and
merchants; the Golden Club, represent
ing British interests and caring nothing
for the welfare of our people OF the honor
and glory of our country, and the pro-
British democracy.
The toilers and producers Of our land,
they whose intelligent labor makes the
wealth and greatness of our country ana
the prosperity of our people, are not
among them.
There is one other fact IN connection
with this subject of too much significance
to be overlooked. 1t is that tie drift of
population is from iree-trade countries to
protective America. "All roads lead to
Rome" was once a saying. All pathways
across the sea, in whioh are found people
travelling to land where they hope to
better their condition, lead to our own
favored country. They are all coming
this way, too. None are returning.
1t has been truly said that the gates OF
Castle Garden swing inward. No man or
woman who is struggling up the hill of
life for competency and comfort ever
has occasion to swing them cut. None
desire to leave this land of Protection and
plenty for the poverty and wretchedness'
the helplessness and hOpelessness from
which they fled in the free-trade land
of their birth.-COpgressmGn uittiken.

Political Decentralization.

SATIRE.
To buy or not to buy
That is the qestion.
To be honest and to be defeated
Ave, e. ere's the rub,
To stand supinely By and see thine
adversary buy the people,
While you condemn the outrage.
There is the greatest temptation,
To be ignorant left in base obscurty
To wither. or to do as Others do
Steal, lie aud put on thy face
The mark of hypocrisy,
Rob the widow, jmpoverish the orphan,
Bride the voter, stuff the ballot,
And thunder with stentorian voice,
In legislative halls or in the Senate
Chamber,
Concerning honesty, sanctlty OF the
ballot,
And good government.
Come Choose ye!
Come Come
A few dollars and a cask OF rum.
But speak and we will make thee great
Why, man why does thou hesitate
To buy or not TO buy
That Is the question. What harmf
Fiel fie IT'S the common custom.
You but initiate the rest.
Money money That's what the voters
want
That is the question before the people,
A seat in Congress, the ermine, the Senate
But speak the word. Put up the money.
Twas his, tits yours, tits any mans
Who will furnish forth the filthy lucre
Ave all this and more shall be thine
If thou wilt but stoop to conquer.
On the other hand, behold
Poverty, ungratfied ambition, obscurity,
And thy peoples ridicule.
Never never Get thee behind me,
Tempter
It shall never be.
With gold nor silver will we by the
people. -.
Give us obscurity rather than gold.bought
fame;
Unqualified ambition rather than dis
honor.
Rather the peoples ridicule than the
destruction Of the republic
The penitentiary the place; ten years
the time
For the VILLAIN who would buy or sell a
vote.
To buy or not to bny
That is the question.
To corrupt aud be corrupted
That is the game
And go unwhlpped OF Justice
That's-the law.

The Kelley Institute.

Editorial in Salem IVA Times Register.
This institution, which was established
in our midst early last fall for the treat
ment of liquor and opium habits, has met
with a far greater success than Was ex-
pected by many "doubting Thomas" Its
usefulness in restoring men to conditions
that render life worth anything, has only
been measured by its opportunities. We
know nothing of the modus operandi by
which this transformation is effected but
we cannot fail to observe the effects of
the treatment upon those who were here
tofore regarded as almost hopeless VIC
tins of intemperance. 1t Is not too much
to say that the good 1t has already ac-
complished and is steadily engaged in. is
beyond computation. The Kelley lnsti-
tute at Salem is worthy of beirg cherish
ed by our people "for its very works
sake" 1t will be advantageous to this
place in more ways than one, and Will
leave pleasurable recollection of Salem
in the minds Of those who have been cured
of their infirmities that will endure so
long as life lasts. 1t is worthy by reason
of the good work it IS doing. of encourage.
ment OF the people IN every quarter Of
Virginia, and 10 Is but to be better known
to be still more highly appreciated.
