GEMS FROM GROVER.
Some Extracts from President CIereIand's
Pension Vetoes.

Pension Vetoes.
! 1t is sad but true that in procuring
pensions there exists a widespread dis
regard of truth and good faith; the race
after these pensions would stimulate
weakness and pretended incapacity and
put premium on dishonesty and men
dacity.-Veto of Dependent Pension
Bill.
The number Of instances in which
those of our soldiers who rode horses
during the war were injured by being
thrown forward upon their saddles
would indicate that those saddles were
very dangerous CONFERENCE.-The o of
Alfred Denny Pension Bill.
Her pension is asked for entirely
because of her needs and the faithful ser
vice of her husband and her sons. This
presents the question whether gift in
such a case is proper disposition of
money appropriated for pensions.-Yeto
of Sally Ann Bradley Bill.
The soldiers of our civil war, in their
pay and bounty, received such compen-
sation for military service as has never

mankind went to war. The really needy
have been provided for at soldiers
homes.-Veto Of Dependent Pension Bill.
Though twelve neighbors of tile pen
sioner testified that he was FREQ from
neuralgia and disease of the eyes before
enlistment | am Of the opinion that the
evidence against the pension was quite
satisfactory.-Ve of Bill Pensioning
II. L. Kyler.
Every relaxation of principle in the
granting Of pensions invites applications
of pensions without merit and encour-
ages those who for gain urge honest men
TO become dishonest.-Vet of Elizabeth
S. De Kraft Bill.
This officer was undoubtedly brave
and efficient, rendering his country val
liable service, but it does not appear to
have been of so distinguished a char
acter, nor are the circumstances Of his
widow such as to render gratuity jus
tifiable.-Veto Of Bill Fensioning Widow
of Commodore Marchand.
l believe that if the Veterans of the
war knew all that going on in the way
of granting pensions by private bills they
would be more disguised than any class
of citizens.-Veto of June %, 1888.

The encouragement. of the state
Of Wisconsin is on the stump in
this campaign dealing out to a
tired populace the same widowed
and vormy tariff chestnut that he
retailed in the campaign of 1890,
about the free list of the present
tariff containing the items "acorns
and human hair" MIR. O'Connor,

administration circles rs "Slippery

ment with these items because he
hasn't the slightest suspicion of
how his antics over them displays
his ignorance of the tariff sched-

Il may do for the attorney-gen-

President Harrison insulting the
Irish race; it may do for him to
wall about the dead and buried

he better stop talking about the
tariff, because he doesn't know any

Chicago Journal; Ad vices from
those who are espeo tally well in
formed in Wisconsin politics, and
who have had excellent facilities
for observing the drift of public
sentiment, are to the effect that
there Is every probability of the
Republicans carrying the state by a
very large majority, and electing at
least half of the congressman, not
withstanding the unfair apportion-
ment of the districts. The course
of the Democratic party managers
in twice gerrymanderiug the state
in the most infamous manner has
disguised many of their own party,
and had the effect of Diminishing
the party strength and prestige. It
is most emphatic and significant
of the truth that
"houesty is the best policy" in
politics as we'll as in all the ordinary
affairs of life.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.


The White House mail bag grows
larger and larger as the election
draws nearer, and the news it brings
grows better and better for the Re
publicans. From far away Cali
fornia and Washington comes
assurances that in spite Of local
troubles the National tickets bound
to win; from Kansas comes the
death-knell Of the mushroom organ
ization which made the mistake Of
trying to thrive approaching calam-
ity; from the Presidents own state
comes the news that it is now only
a question of how large his majority
will be, and the estimate that it
will be between 10000 aud 10000;
from Wisconsin that the state is
certain to go Republican; from
Illinois and Iowa ditto; from New
Jersey and Connecticut news of
sufficient gains among the Irish and
the workingmen to make the Re
publicans confident of carrying both
states, and from New York news of
a largely increased Republican
registration and of great work
among the Irish-Amerioans, brought
TO realizing sense of the situation
by Mr.. Blaine's recent speech. All
in all the signs now point to an old
fashioned Republican victory on the
elh Of November, a victory that
will put an end to talk about free
trade and wildcat currency in this
country for many years to come.
Secretary Rusk is out OF town,
but the other officials Of the depart.

at the news uabled from England
that a bullock shipped from New
York was suffering with pleuro-
pneumonia when Il arrived there.

bureau of animal industry, says the

the ignorance or malice of some

that the bullock - question was
suffering from an old-fashioned case
of catarrhal pneumonia, which any
one familiar with cattle knows to
be non.eontagious. The doctor
further says, and he knows what he
is talking about, that there is not =

this country, and not been for six

SENATOR Frye, of Maine, in hi

SENATOR FRYE, of Maine, in his
Milwaukee speech this week says,
among other good things:
Now / can prove that free trade is not good
by country that has had it longer than any
| civilized country in the wide world. What coun-
try is that2 ireland. Did you know that Ire
land once had a protective tariff? Did
you know that she manufactured silk, and
linen and cotton and hosiery? Did you know
that there was a room in every freshman s
house and peace and plenty and comfort2
Did you know that ireland supported l0,OOO.00O
people in comfort under that protective tariff
Well, it is all true. Now, England said
to Ireland one day: Here, you can raise
raw material cheaper than we can We
can manufact ure it cheaper than you can. You
sell us the raw material, we will sell you the
manufactured goods. 1t will be good trade
for both" Ireland consented and In the act Of
union with England, that protective tariff was
surrendered gradually. In twenty years all
was gone, and Ireland from that hour to this
has been an absolute free trade country, II
didn't take long TO learn what that meant
A few years rolled away and ], 600 900 Irish
men and Irish women starved to death. What
starved them TO death2 Free trade.
Years rolled away and millions of Irishmen
who loved their country just as well as you
and l love ours were driven into exile. What
drove them into eXc2 Free trade.
Millions of them came to the United States.
What compelled them TO come here? Free
trade.
Now the most amazing thing TO me on the
face of this earth is that bright-witted Irish
man can be found anywhere who will
deliberately go TO the polls, vote for the
Democratic ticket and the same free trade,
ii may be, that starved his father and mother
to death.
Now take the country that has had pro-
lection for thirty years. You never read in
all history any such wondrous story as the
story of this republic under Republican rule
under protection. There never was a country
that has so grown in power and in prosperity
as this. Why, Mulhall the English statistician.
ten years ago pointed in his book to the marvel
of the United States. Said he: THAT country
is literally laying up every day s. O5O,OO0, as
much as the whole world outside lays up"
Gladstone, in IA little book "Our Daughter
Beyond the Sea, written about ten years ago, |
said Our daughter beyond the seas may
oyertake the mother" Suppose he should |
write the book to-day and tell the truth, what |
would he say? He would say "Our daughter |
beyond the seas has oyertaken the mother |
has distanced her in the race and can only |
see her now by looking backward through |

II our Democratic friends persist
