Morrill, and Pensions.

Major Morrill, was chairman OF
the committee on invalid pensions
during his last term of Office and
introduced what is known as the
dependent pension and disability act
which has proven such blessing to
the veterans. By the virtue of that
act 10000 Union soldiers, their
widows and orphans draw pensions
amounting to sixty millions of dol
lars every year, besides 100000 ap-
plications are on file. The agency
at Topeka distributes nearly nine
millions Of this money to Kansas
soldiers, Every postofice, town
and city is benefited by the money
It enables an afflicted veteran tc
maintain himself and family as he
limps down hill to the grave. Many
a merchant has fought away hard
times by the circulation of pension
money, and not one Kansan, at least
who understands the workings Of
the Morrill, law, would sanction its
repeal. Framing the pension law
was not all that Congressman Nor
rill did while in Congress. He as.
sisted over 5000 soldiers by getting
special bills passed for their benefit
This good work Of itself is a histor
ical monument to him. He origin
ated and proclaimed the decree tha
no veteran or his widow should b.
given aims or be treated as paupers
He declared that the government
owed the country's defenders NOR,
than it could pay and pension wa
but the barest allowance Of interest
on the vast principal saved. AnC
to HIM more than any other living
man is due the benefits the old sol
diers enjoy without sacrifice of pride
His pension law made it possible fo
Americans to be proud Of the fac
that their country is more liberal il
its treatment Of Ter old soldier
than any other nation.
