Republicans Writing Under Contem-
plated Pension Reforms.

The republican organs are full Of
sneers at the reform of the pension sys-
tenn proposed by the democrats. In
fact, every reference to the need of
such a reform throws the organs into
spasms, during which the country
learns once again that the democratic
party is simply an aggregation of
traitors banded together to accomplish
what the armies of Lee failed to ac-
compliSh, and determined to wage a
crusade Of determination against the
surviving soldiers of the union,
The organs, furthermore, seem to as
sumo that they are approved in these
indiscriminate and rancorous charges,
if not by the people, by the federal vet.
Grams. They have so long pursued n
policy of attempting to buy votes by
turning over the treasury TO pension
agents and their confederates, that
they infer that every man who draws
u pension or who wants to draw IL pen
sion belongs body and soul to the re-
publicans, and that the people. having
apparently acQuiesced in this so long,
viii continue to acquiesce in it indef-
nitely.
They are mistaken in both assump-
lions, They overestimate the patience
of the people and they underestimate
the patriotism of the veterans. There
is a general and emphatic demand in
the ranks of both parties for an honest
and judicious administration of the
pension department and for a radical
revision Of the system which already
pours out in alleged lawful pensions
nearly one-half of the entire national
revenue in a stream which is charging
at an appalling rate every year, More
over, il Is an insult to the old soldiers
themselves to say that they are not in
sympathy with the people on this ques-
ton. Such an allegation carries with
II the charge that the old soldiers do
not deserve pensions, but have been
7ensloned by the republicans through
charity or Il desire to bride
lem. The truth is, thousands of the sur
boys in Alue," both pensioncd
mpcnsioned, Join heartily III the
demand that the pension roll shall be
me OF honor and merit instead Of bar
.cr and sale for partisan purposes and
gain, and it is estimated that
.ully one-third of the soldier vote was
asst at the last election for the politi.
.Hl party making this demand.

a Republican System of Robblng the
People.
More than twenty years ago Gen.
Garfield, in his place in the house OF
representatives, said: ''The pension
list is swollen beyond all account.
More frauds are being perpetrated on
the government by claim agents than
from any other source" And, as chair.
of the committee on a%ppropria.
tons, he further said: "We may rea.
sonably expect that the expenditures
for pensions will steadily decrease, UNI
legislation should be unwarranta-
bly, extravagant."
DO not the vast expenditures for pen.
sions show that they have been ''unwar-
rantably extravaganza" An exchange
says: Pension agents have
fattened at the public crib. Cowardly
politicians have truckled To the soldier
vote. Thousands of names have been
put upon the rolls that do not belong
there. The self-respect and self-rs.

ter Of the city in which he would pre-
