We wonder IL the Republican
papers who are raising such howl
about the frauds being dropped
from the pension roll ever consider
the sum we arc paying annually for
pensions. stG5, 600, 900, Zone hum
drcd and sixty-6ye million dollars)
almost two dollars and sixty cents
for every man, woman aud child in
the United States, or for family
OF five. thirteen dollars, moro than
the average man pays for State
County and Corporation taxes.
The bulk of this enormous sum is
paid by the laboring men, because
there is no wealth only rs produced
by labor, aud the tariff is so much
higher according" on what the
poor buy than IL is on the rich, aud
there are so many more of the poor
than the rich. IL amounts to as
much as the assessed valuation Of
West Virginia once and ono-third
over, or it would buy Al counties
like Preston at the assessed valna-
ton. At least one half of this
enormous sum is paid TO men who
never heard the crack Of Rebel
gum The trouble about the Pen
sion Roll as it nov stands, is the
men who got big bountfes and done
running, bnt no fighting or service,
get too much, while the men who
done the sighting don't got enough.
An ox soldier and q lifelong Re.
publican told us short time ago
that in bis Immediate ncighborhood
sixteen men we're getting pensions
and Of that number only three ever
saw any fighting or service. Gen.
Garfield once said pension roll Of
one hundred million would be very
liberal.

The Pittsburg DispafcA has asked
the leading Republicans throughout
the country who were struck by the
full force Of the Democratic cyclone
last November to tell II II the Re
publican party can win victory in
1899. Among the number who
have responded TO the cali OF dis
tress is our own worthy townsman,
Hon. Wm. NJ. q. Dawson, the
Chairman OF the Republican State
Executive Committee. Bro. Daw-
son says "No man can tell what the
issues OF 96 will be. The people
can make the issues. not the poll
ticians nor the political managers. I"
This Is just what tho ARous has
been telling Bro. Dawson for years.
that 1t was only question OF time
until the people grew tired Of the
Republican politicians, managers
and bosses foohng them. For years
the Republican party has succeeded
on misrepresentation and prejudice
1t is surprising how long they did
fool the people. When the bloody
shirt would answer no longer they
adopted the blocks Of FIVE and col
lected large campaign fund to
corrupt the voters But they were
found out aud exposed, and at last
they had to meet the people fairly
and squarely on their past record
and future promise TO DO better.
Upon this issue they went before
the people in the Presidential cam.

in tho verdict OF the people, but

Bro. Dawson evidently forgot
himself when he said, "The candi-

was the opinion Of the Republican

Harrison. They relied upon "boo-

OF the Journal will prescribe hn-
morous antidote for the patient.
