Loppine or Penaions.

The secretary Of the interior, on the
strength OF an opinion by the attorney
general revokes a previous order by
which pensions have been granted for
disabilities received after the expira-
ton OF the applicants service and
without regard to his ability to earn
hia living by manual labor. The pen.
sion for disability received in the SER
vice does not depend on ability to
earn living by manual labor
It is now held that the law requires
this discrimination between disabilities
received in the service and those re-
ceiyed after the expiration OF the term
OF service. 1t ia for executive officers to
respect the law as they find it, and if
this ruling be in accord with the law it

the law.

the question strongly presented, II
there be two sides. Pension laws as

Somebody "close to" the President
has been reading his mind. In his
next message to Congress he will flash
on the country some startling reform
propositions. Tie tariff will be his
bright particular star Of reform, and it
will not be anything borrowed from the
Democratic platform.
Certainly. Why should the President
pay any regard to the platform of his
party2 Isn't he bigger than his party
and good deal better2 If he is deter
mined to have fourth nomination the
thing to do ia to make his party as
small factor as possible, so that it may
be handled easily and turned to the ac-
count of whom it may concern.
A very clever thought would BIO to
dispense with the party convention and
grandly declare himself in the field, his
own nominee, as it were, for the presi-
dency. The freshness OF the move
would be captivating.

An ingenious person has an idea for
prison cells which might be put in
practice in our jail to prevent any more
ten day Jobs of jail breaking. He would
build the coils Of steel or iron pipe to
hold water under high pressure. Any
puncture OF pipo would let the water
out, at once reduce the pressure and
give tho alarm.
A simpler way to keep prisoners in
would be to convince them that it is
not safe for them to be ut large. The
wheeiinRplan allows prisoners to work
on the jail for ten days under peep.hole
surveillance, but this has not the en-.
dor0cment Of the best authorities.
