SEE THEM AT HOME.

The extraordinary session of Congress is
over, and the Senators and Representatives
are at home among their constituents, to
learn something of their temper before set
Ting down to the work of general legislation
at the opening of the regular session next
month.
Much has happened since the elections
year ago, and the members OF both Houses
need not be told that the landmarks then
set are very unreliable guides by which to
direct their present course. Hence their
eagerness to mingle intimately with their
constituents, and gain new bearings for their
guidance.
We hope that the veterans everywhere
will take this opportunity, when the Sena-
torial and Representative mind is pecu-
liarly open to impression, to make it clearly
understood that the veterans and their
friends are intensely weary of this sicken-
ing delay in tie settlement Of pension
claims, and demand that Congress take
effective steps to end it by providing that
all claims now in the Pension Bureau be
finally settled by Dec. 81, 1894.
This is a matter that is wholly within the
power Of Congress. The Pension Bureau is
the creature of Congress-the agency by
which the laws enacted by that body are
carried into execution. 1t can simply do
what Congress orders to be done, and sup
plies the means TO do. If Congress desires
to end this National scandal of thousands
of veterans dying every month denied of
their rights by bureaucratic procrastination,
it can do so at once by setting a limit of
time in which the Bureau must do its
work, and giving it ample force to do the
work in good shape within that time
Let the comrades thoroughly understand
this simple fact, and take particular pains to
| let their Senators and Representatives know
that they SO understand it, and are deeply
| in earnest that Congress should do its duty
at once by the men who did their duty nobly
by the country.
Every GAR Post and other organiza-
ton of veterans, every Camp of Sons OF
Veterans, and the veterans and their sons
Individually, should take particular pains to
impress upon their congressman that they

AS THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE goes to press
Tuesday afternoon elections are progressing
particularly interested in The success of Com
rade Mckinley in Ohio, because we feel that
N him the veterans and The pension system
are on trial before the whole country, and a
sweeping majority for him will have the
happiest possible effect upon the fortunes of
the veterans of the whole Nation. We hope
that by the time our subscribers read this
they will have been electrified by the news
that he has swept the State by a majority
reaching far up into the tens of Thousands.

THE PENSION BILL.

Early in the coming session of Congress
there will be pension bill presented, and q
heated discussion will follow. The action
that will be taken will largely depend on the
attitude of the veterans during the past
few months, and that which they will
now assume. There are more than
100000 veterans in the country, all
of whom have votes, and through
their sons and sons-in-law they can in
fuence 100000 or 100000 more. This is
enough to control the elections everywhere,
and if the veterans will only let it be dis
tinctly understood that they are standing
solidly together in defense of their rights,
they can stop any onslaught upon them
and secure the legislation to which
they are entitled. This is the only
way in which they can. Politicians aud
parties are selfish and merciless. They will
sacrifice anything and anybody to secure
success. The only way in which they can
be held in check is by fear of defeat.
Let the veterans understand that they
must stand soIidly together for self-preser-
Walton, and hold every politician to rigid
account for his speeches and acts in opposi-
ton 10 veterans rights. If this is done with
the solidarity and unanimity that the
gravity of the interest demands, we can win
the victory Our enemies have profited by
divisions among ourselves. Let US have no
more of this.
Let the veterans begin by demanding with
one voice that every claim now before the
Pension Bureau be settled by Dec. 81, 1894
and that the pension laws now on the stat
ute-books be carried out according to the
spirit and intent with which they were en-
acted.
Get together, boys, and stay together
until the battle is won.

IT Is rank nonsense to talk of extending
the sales Of Our farm products by cutting
down the tariff. The English, Germans,
and French would not buy another bushel
of our grain or pound of our meat if we had
absolute free trade. They only buy what
they have to, and they buy it from whoever
will sell it the cheapest. The European wheat
or meat buyer does not stop to inquire
into the economic ideas of those who have
products to sell. He is in the market to
buy wherever he can buy cheapest IF We
offer him wheat eheale than the Russians
OF HiDdus do he will buy of us; if higher
he will not buy of us. He bothers himself
as little about our ideas on revenue as he
does over the Russians being Greeks in re-
lgion and the Hindus Buddhists. He is
not doing business on sentimental grounds

The Victoria Cnurt-MartiaI.

The minutes of the English Admiralty in the
Victoria Camperdown court-martial confirm
the findings of the court. Capt. Charles john
stone, of the CsmPerdown. is criticised some
what severely by the Admiralty. The report
closes thus:
1.-THE Victoria cspsized owing to her water
tight doors not being closed. Otherwise she
would have remained aflOst and reached port
under her own steam. The general structure
did not by any fault in principle contribute to
her loss"
Regulations will be issued to the feet. which.
while maintaining the responsibility and dis
cretiOnary powers of the commanders, will
insure under special circumstances, especially
when q collision is possible, that the water
tight doors and matches shall be closed so far -
possible, and that men be stationed ut those
necessarily kept OPEN
The minutes express the regret of the Adj
miralty that Capt. tombstone did not show
promptitnde of decision in executing orders
and in avoiding collision. Special attention
is directed to his failure TO order at once ex-
treme helm and full speed astern.

If the comrades generally will do this,

THE ELECTIONS ARE OVER.

The elections are over, and the country
will have brief interval of rest before Con-
gress resumes its session next month. We
believe that the time is very proptious for
making such an investigation of the pen
sion-roll as we have long urged upon the
Commissioner. The publication of the
facts which this Investigation would
develop would be very opportune now.
We are promised that pension bill will be
brought up very early in the coming session,
and the public ought to have some exact
facts upon which to base its judgment of
such measure. 1t ought no longer to be
forced to grope amid the confusion Of con-
flicting claims and clamors. Either the
vast majority of pensioners on the roll are
honestly and deservcdly there, and de-
nunciation of them should cease, Or they
are dishonesty and undeservedly there,
and should be taken off without delay.
An examination of 1000 sample cases will

penson-roll is roll of honor, let US have
those entitled TO place upon it put there
at once. If it is fouled by dshonor let us
have the scoundrels taken off at once, and
sent to the penitentiary, along with those
who were instrumental in putting them on
the roll. No punishment can be too prompt
or too severe for those who have defrauded
the Government.
But let us first have exact facts instead of
windy denuncations and vocifer0us claims.
Let US have an exact enumeration of the
sheep and the goats. No veteran fears this.
Every one has, on the contrary, been urging
it. Only our enemies seem to fear to have
the absolute facts given the public.
If this investigation can be made next
week, it will be in exactly the right time to
put the public and Congress in possession Of
information of the highest Importance in
shaping the pension legislation of the coming
session.
Will you not do this, Mr.. Commissioner,
for your comrades sake?
