SIX MINUTES TO A PENSIOER.

UNDER this caption the National
Tribune thus describes the practice of
the Pension Office in passing upon the
the claims of the soldier boys under
the law of 1890.
1t appears, according to a recent
statement from the Pension Office,
that the Confederate . investigation
with the view of disgracing and de-
grading veterans of the Union armies
Is to proceed at the rate of six minutes
to each pensioner. The man who
fought four years in the Union ranks
is to have this fraction of time devoted
to the question, involving not only his
means of living, but also his honor.
Without counsel, without an oppor-
tunity for appearance or defense, the
record of the Union soldier is to be
tried in six minutes by men who, if
not themselves avowed enemies of the
soldier, know that their prospects for
Cleveland 3 term are dependent upon
the exc onfederates and the r Northern
associates.
The men who went to face armed
secession on the field of Gettysburg
and in front of Petersburg did not
measure their service by minutes.
They gave no grudging loyalty to their
country, nor did they complain as the
months of war rolled into years and
year after year saw them still engaged
in the task of suppressing the Rebel
lion. But now it is proposed by the
class of oficeholders, of whom we have
a specimen in New York in the indi
vidual who wished that those who
persisted in Ford's Theater had been
pensioners, to deal with the soldiers
pension at the rate of ten cases per
hour and TO trample alike upon graft.
tude and justice in order to erase as
many names as possible from the lists.
The officials who resort to such
methods are condemned in advance
by every decent and honorable mind.
Their findings will testify only to thei
own injustice, and their desire to pro.
pitiate that element which abhors the
Union soldier and which ID predomi-
nant in Washington to-day.
In common justice and in fairness to
the brave men who confronted and
crushed the Confederacy, every
veteran charged with having procured
q pension wrongfully should have full
notice of the accusation and an oppor-
tunity to defend himself against the
charge. The worst criminal has such
an opportunity before a decision of his
case; but there is too much evidence
that, in the view of those now in con-
troll at Washington, there could be no
greater crime than to have served in
the armies of the nation, and to have
fought against the enemies of the Re-
public. The rights accorded even to a
criminal are denied to the h%onorably
discharged soldier of the Union, and
those who were unable to vanquish
him in the field, when he was in the
prime Of manly visor, are privileged
to strike a cowerdly blow at his honor
and his living, now that he is enfeebled

The Cincinnati Tribune correctly
diagnoses the case when it comments
thus:
1.-THE trouble at present is mainly
due to distrust of the future ~ says the
Boston Herald. Very true. 1t is dis
trust of the free trade doctrine held
by the party to which the Herald be-
longs distrust of the party which
would give us free coinage of silver to
debase the worlds standard I; distrust
of the party which says one thing in
its platform and does another thin.
through its members in Congress diss
trust OF q party which makes promiseg
that are meant to catch votes and are
not meant for performance. That is
the distrust that is playing smash with
confidence and sending business to the
dogs. Distrust of Democracy is the
financial disease of today.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.

Under this head the National Tri.
bune correctly says:
The entire burden of the continuance
of the financial stringency now rests
upon Congress. Dread of what Con-
gress may oil may not do is all that
stands in the way of business men re.
Stunning their activity, and setting every
wheel of commerce to turning. If il
could be known for a certainty Just
what action Congress will take on the
silver and tariff question, business men
would at once adjust themselves to it,
and go to work trying to make none
according to the new conditions. But
until it is known what Legislation there
will be on the tariff no man will buy a
pound of wool or a ton of iron or a
bale of tobacco beyond what he needs
for immediate use iron mills will not
start up, wooden factories will either
continue shut down, or run only to
furnish a hand to mouth supply, and
no merchant will buy more than he is
sure of selling within a few weeks.

The weather this week in Moscow

Serge has established in three parts Of
the city stalls for the supply of hot tea

Upwards OF two thousand large mugs
of this beverage are distributed daily at
the merely nominal price per mug Of
two kopeks, or less than I'd. More
over, big logs Of wood are kept burn
ing in all large squares night and day,
Round this blazing fires the poor Of
the town and the droski drivers collect
to warm their frozen limbs. The

bered, is a granddaughter of Queen
Victoria, actively seconds her husbands
efforts to alleviate the distress. She is
holding in her own house an exhibition
of the lace, gold embroidery, and wool

TO BE GOOD LOOKING.
Get Plenty of Sleep, but Be Sure to
Rise Early.


The excellence of early rising and its
inspiring influence on both body and
mind have been themes for the poets
song and the sage's sermon. Early
rising promotes cheefulness Of temper;
opens up new capacities of enjoyment
and channels of delight to which the
suggard must be insenslble.
1t increases the sum of human exist
ence by stealing from Incidence hours
that would else be utterly wasted, and,
better still, unquestionably conduces to
longevity. All long livers have been
early rlsers.
Now, the habit of retiring to bed at
late hours will hardly admit of early
rising; therefore, the necessity of re-
framing from the one in order to Sc,
cure the advantage ofthe other. From
six to eight hours are generally held to
be sufficient, and no doubt on the ave
rage are so.
Our sleep is regulated much by The
season. In winter people lie longer on
account, as they say, of its being too
dark to get up early. There is some
plausibility in the reason, but the sys-
tenn in cold and dark weather is more
prone to sleep than in light and sunny
times. Invalids need generally plenty
of bed rest, but they should procure it
by going early to bed,
