The conviction on six indictments

The conviction on six indictments
of Robert J. Beatty, as an accomplice
in the Homestead poisoning cases, is a
forceful comment on the doctri le OF
violence as advocated by some of the
men who go to the head of strikes. They
always invite defeat by that very de-
structive policy, for the public will not
generally strike hands with that which
forebodes crime. Force, as factor in
these questions, brings harm to whoever
invOkes it, and none but towards would
poison men seeking to earn bread that
their families might live.

Pensions 1890 Act.

The democratic members of the house
committee on appropriations has agreed
to amendments to the act of 1890, as
follows:
"That no widow shall receive pen,
sion undeBsthe act of 1890 unless mar,
ried to soldier prior to 1870; that no
person shall receive pension under the
act of 1890 unless disabled in the SER
vice from manual labor and in receipt
of an income of less than 5000 per year,
and no nonresident of the United
States shall receive pension unless he
was actually disabled in the service"
The changes as proposed above would
go far toward neutralizing the law. 1t
is apparent that the democrats are to
have the senate as we'll as the house,
and that they will cut off part of the
pensions there can be no doubt.
