ex-prcsdent dwelt upon the subject of
pensions. He denounced in strong
language pension policy that reflects
upon the integrity of the veterans of
the war. His remarks on the subject
of pensions brought forth cheers from
tile veterans.
Commander in Chief Weissert, in re-
sponse to the address, also referred to
the pension question. He indorsed
what ex-President Harrison had said
and indicated that the Grand Army OF
the Republic, through the eventful
meeting, would speak its feelings in
reference to the treatment of pension
ers by the democratic administration.
Besides speaking at Tomlinson's hall,
ex-President Harrison addressed the
veterans in Camp Wilder in the after
noon and the camp fire of the Army of
the Cumberland at night. He is the
central figure of the encampment.
The thing which will no doubt oc-
cupy the greater part of the time of the
encampment is the subject of pensions
A claim will be made that pension
claim once allowed and entered on the
rolls is judgment against the
government, and that the govern
ment has no right to deprive
the pensioner of his money with
out a formal opening of the case.
1t is said 5000 pensioners have been
suspended or cut off or had their last
| increase recalled. Commander in Chief
Weissert's annual address will be de-
livered Wednesday. He will discuss the
pension question and other subjects OF
interest TO the members,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 2. The
woman suffragists of Kansas opened
Friday night in Kansas City, Kan, a
campaign which they expect will re-
sult in securing to the women
of the Sunfower state the same
right at the ballot box which the
men enjoy, The election at which this
result is expected to be secured will be
held fourteen months hence, so the
women have plenty of time to carry on
their campaign, At the fail election
of 1894 an amendment To the constitu'
ton will be voted upon providing full
suffrage for women.

JUNE Z, 1893.
DEAR SIR In the matter relating
TO your tax, for which you hold tax
receipt No. --, have this to say to
you, that no money has been paid into
the county treasury in payment of
said tax. That certain drafts were
reunited to this Office by The Com
mereial State Bank of Long Island,
which ! was informed were intended
to pay your said tax, and your tax re-
'ceipt was issued under the impression
that such drafts were good, but they
went to protest for non payment, and
said bank at Long Island also refuses
to pay the money into the treasury.
1 deem it my duty, after being
fully advised IN the premises, to no
tlfy you that your tax has not been
paid; that the receipt you hold was
issued by mistake, and that the same
is held to be void by this office, and
the property described in such re-
ceipt will, if the tax is not paid on or
before July 10, 1893, be placed on the
delinquent list.
Yours Respectfully,

April Fool Group.

A. C. Ellis, one Of the April Fool 10.
Gators at Ferguson district, was in town
yesterday. He reports that after running
l65 feet of the tunnel recently started on
the Monitor claim, adjoining the April
Fool on the west. the ledge opened and
an ore chamber of considerable size was
cut into. Since then the walls OF the
ledge have diverged, and in running ten
feet farther, the ore body widened to
eight feet and was still improving when
he left. Samples taken from about four
feet Of the ore face carried about six
ounces, or say sl20 ton in gold, while
the remainder of the face is good silver
bearing ore assaying about fifty ounces to
the ton. This ledge of the Monitor
parallels that of the April Fool claim and
the discovery here is very important
one and may result in active operations
again shortly In that part Of Ferguson
district.
In the Petty Hill. sou til of the April
Fool, some prospecting is going on. ]. A.
Denton and Dan Rosder each have two
