Mr. LOCHRAN ON FRAUDS
The Commissioner Will Not
Test the 1000 Cases.

False aud Forged Testimony on the Face

ably Appear Well Established.
AsHIEGToN, d. @, Aug. 3-Pension
Commissioner Lochran has written q
lengthy letter TO the editor Of the
National Tribune on the subject Of
fraudulent pensions.
He says he has not complied with the
editors request to cause a test to be
made to show the number Of fraudulent
pensions by having 1000 cases drawn
from the admitted fles and examined for
the reason that frauds cannot be dis
covered In that way
The bogus pensions are obtained on
false and forged testimony on the face
OF the papers, Such cases would prob.
ably appear well established. No one
claims that the great mass Of adiudi-
Gated cases are fraudulent
The commissioner says he has too high
opinion OF his old comrades to believe
that any large number Of them are
scoundrels. Especially does he believe
that the pensions OF soldiers, who did
actual service, on account OF disabilities
Of service origin, are unusually and
we'll deserved.

made except where evidence indicates a
fraud IL cannot be denied. however,

SOME TIMELY RE1ARKS.

EDITOR FREE PREsS:-Is there hui
name society in MankatO, or any way
to enforce the laws of Minnesota in
regard to cruelty to animals? Every
day, on the principal streets of this
city, can be seen cases Of cruelty to
horses that ought to be attended to.
In the wood and hay market there are
many horses left standing several
hours in the biting wind, without any
kind of a blanket on. Often. after
long, weary hours Of waiting, the own
ers sell their loads, and instead of 60
ing home at once to feed and shelter
the hungry, shivering creatures, they
drive Immediately to some saloon
where they remain sometimes till
long after dark. If the horses of
these men were plump and we'll fed,
it would not matter so much, but it is
a notable fact that the man who
spends his money and his time IN the
saloon is generally so brutalzed that
he not only neglects and impoverishes
his family, but abuses inhumanIy the
animals belonging to him. If all the
suffering of women. little children and
dumb animals that is caused by strong
drink and the cursed saloons could be
voiced, it would rend the very heav-
ems. Is there not some way by which
some responsible person can be au-
thoriZed to interfere in cases of this
| kind which come to his notice? 1t
seems to me that one Of the duties of
the policemen ought to be that they
must see to it that the owners proper
| ly blanket their horses; also, when
teams are left standing in front of sa-
looms, they should be ordered to move
on.
| cannot refrain from abiding to
the abuse that is practiced by the
owners of carriage horses in this city,
in continuing to use that instrument
of torture, the overhead check, not
only destroying the naturally graceful
curve of the neck, but causing vast
amount of suffering among them. Nc
intelligent or thoughtful person now.
adays allows his horses to be so NAL
treated. CITIZEN.
