thing to stimulate them, while New. York
was considered sale for the Republicans
Putting this and that together, does It
not look as though the pension racket
had been worked for all it was worth in
the political campaign, and is it not time
that something was done to regulate the
matter, not with the view to depriving
any worthy soldier of his dues, but for
the purpose of checking wrong and pre-
venting fraud, and establishing equality
in the distribution of awards?

Politics and Pensions.

IT is for the information of the public
and not for the purpose of rasping the
delicate sensibilities of our Republican
friends that we give few particulars
which have lately come to light on the
vexatious subject of pensions. We say
vexatious because any reference to the
manner in which pensions have been OBJ
tanned by wholesale in this country, and
any attempt to defend check upon pen
sion frauds sets them into fury.
President CLEVELAND has been assaiIed
more on account of his pension vetoes
than on almost any other ground, and
the cry has gone forth that with the ac-
cesslon of the Democrats to power will
come an assault on the pension system,
to the detriment of the defenders of our
country. OF course ali that is mere party
padding and there is nothing solid and
real about it.
An inquiry has been made already into
some OF the pension doings of the present
administration, and it has come to light
that between the time of President HAIR
R1soN's nomination and the day of cleo
ton, no less than 90, 900 new names found
their way on to the pension list. The av-
erage for each is about $3.50 G year. This
at a thousand additions day might be
considered going it steep.''
In the distribution of pension patron
age there is feature worth looking at.
Indiana furnished for tho army 1877, 147
soldiers; she has 50, 120 names on the
pension rolls with an annual payment OF
SIC, ABS, 529. Ohio sent to the army
BIS, 657 soldiers, and is represented on the
list by So, 1855 pensioners who receive per
year s16, lis, 541. Now contrast these with
New York which supplied in the wal
467, O47 men and hes but n 800 names Oh
the pension roll, the sum paid to then
being 81, 762, $3.50.
What is the cause OF this remarkable
discrimination? Would it be considered
mere party spleen to intimat, that poll.
cal exigency occasioned it? . ne facts are
that just previous to the nom mating con-
vention at Minneapolis there was bui
little work done in granting pensions,
Between nomination and election times
they were ground out at the rate Of 8
thousand day. Then Ohio and Indians
wsrs doubtful states and needed some.

THE NOMINATION of Senator TURPIE for
reelection by the Democratic members OF

for the appointment OF Judge GRAY to
the Federal bench. Truth is mighty and
will prevail.

GENERAL IRISH.
He is About to Leave Nevada for
Washington.

| Eight years ago when Gen. Irish
came to this State, he met with con-
siderable opposition because he was
a carpet Dagger. The APPEAL APP
preached him on this ground then,
but now that he is leaving we will
do him the justice to say that he has
benefited the State by being here.
During his regime as Surveyor Gen
eral there was never any scandals in
his Office and he went out as he went
in, clean handed.
His first work in this State was an
address delivered before the Legis-
lature in Jan. 1887 upon the subject
of Irrigation in Nevada, the result
of which, the Legislature made the
first appropriation for the purpose of
State weather service. He then
personally interested himselfin secur>
ing observers in all parts of the State
to assist Prof. Friend in building up
the now splendid corps working in
that service. This service so freely
given by Gen. Irish was duly acknow-
lodged by Prof. Friend in his report
to the Legislature. When Z. S.
Surveyor General, Gen. Irish indus
triously and at his own expense col
lected data as to our climate and soil
productions, and for the first time in
the history of that office he made a
report to the Land Department giving
the great range Of valuable crops
which our State can produce showing
that it by proper outstanding Of our
material, our resources can be made to
equal if not surpass our neighboring
States i'll the line Of husbandry.
H has devoted all his spare time
in travelling over the State and
noting its water supplies, and topo-
graphy, in relation to its prospective
agrlcui ural improvement and has
done this unostentatiously and at his
own expense.
From the knowledge so obtained |
he has been able to place before the
public from time to time an account
of our State of inestimable value to
its citizens and to the intending immi-
grant.
His writings on these subjects have
enriched the pages of reports from
the Department of the Interior and
of Agriculture at Washington as we'll
as these of several magazines. 1t is
no wonder then that he is called to
the high and responsible position of
chief of the Irrigation Division Of the
Depa rtment of Agriculture.

Too Confident

Purcell lost his fight in Reno by
over confidence. He had won 81
many fights that he allowed himself
to be roped into an agreement where
the La Blanch swing or ''pivot blow
his favorite and most effective blow,
was barred. He never realized the
big task he had undertaken until he
had fought couple of rounds. He
faced his work gamily and never
quit until nature was exhausted.
The next time he makes a match
he will probably scan his contract
more carefully.

handed him a Sunday Examiner.
"That foin sthory by Billy Nor

i've column story and so intensely

uerloin steak and its surroundings
got cold while the scribe read on.
When the editor had finished reading
this absorbing story the boy rushed
in and yelled that the buss was start

fast had to be left untasted. Net
even a mouthful of coffee was slipped
and old Chamberlain refused to re

Visiting Wheelmen.

Five of the Reno wheelmen ar
rived in Carson Sunday night on Vic
tor safties, making the trip from that
place in about four hours, actual
travelling. They report the roads
in rather poor condition, and had
considerable walking to do. How
ever they enjoyed the trip, which
gave them ravenous appetite, and
when they got through dinner at the
Arlington, the proprietors had to lay
in new stock of provisions.
They were Messrs. Chas. Jones,
AL Helmold, Gus Moore, Chas.
Nash and G. Gottschalk.
Whenever the Reno cyclers 60 on
trip they always take Jones with
them to make fun for the balance.
While Jones is not handsome man,
he has a pleasant, engaging way
about him that keeps the boys "smil-
ing" continually. They are all a
jolly lot of fellows and will come up
again shortly.
There are now over 100 wheels
in Reno, and about 80 will turn out
in the Decoration Day parade, AZ of
them being ladies, and when stretched
out single file at safe riding dis
lance apart, will make line over
1000 feet long, 81 nearly six blocks.
