AN AWFUL IMPossIBlLlTY.

The soaking rain is pouring down.
How 1t would fill your cup
With bitterness ii some day it
Should start to pouring upi
Umbrellas then would be no use,
And men in rubber boots
Would have to go, while all the girls
Would put on bathing suits.
You'd have fountain on your lawn
Beside each blade of grass.
To keep your cellar warm and dry
You'd need floor Of glass.
II you were camping in tent,
You'd have TO sleep on top,
And all night you'd be praying that
The cursed rain might stop. -
In fact, great inconyenienoes
Too numerous to state
Would follow il the falling rain
Should cease to grayitate.
So let us hope tAereIl be no change,
AT least in our town,
And that instead Of pouring up
The rain will still pour down.

HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE.

We repeat our urgent advice to the
comrades to hold every Representative
who will soon return to them to rigid
account Of his stewardship, and to def
mite statement as to his future course.
We must now grid our loins for the
final battle for our rights. We must
have the line distinctly drawn between
cur friends and our enemies. We must
know precisely where every man for
whom we have voted, or who solicits
our votes, stands with regard to our
rights.
We must have no more lying bosh
about Deserving veterans need have
no fear" and that kind of palaver.
We must have every man who expects
a veterans vote come out fat-footed
and unequivocal in his statements of
what be is opposed to, and what he will
vote and work for.
Every politician knows precisely what
the veterans are entitled to and should
have. Our rights have been formu-
lated with great exactness in the laws
already enacted, and the declarations of
the n ational Encampment. These form
a definite, easily-understood platform
upon which all our friends can stand
and he who will not get squrely on it
is our enemy, no matter how much he
may shuttle and protest, and strive to
cloud his hostility in sounding phrases
We want every pension law on the
statute books executed according to its
letter and spirit, and that with all
possible promptness. We want an i'm
mediate stop put to the shameful delays
and evasions in the execution OF those
laws. We want every man entitled to
a pension given that pension at once, and
in deciding whether he is entitled to a
pension, We want loyal, efficient carrying
out Of the will of Congress in passing
those laws.
We want passed THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE Per Diem Service Pension Bill,
which will place every man who did
honorable service upon the pension-roll
at rate proportionate to his length of
service, but no pension to be less than
IS month.
We want the law giving veterans the
preference in public employment made
obligatory, with punishment for those
who evade it.
These demands are simple, entirely
just, and easily understood. Let US have
every man who seeks our votes brought
squarely to book as to whether he is in
favor Of these or not, and have from him
categorical answers of yes or no.
No man who will not answer with
hearty affirmation should receive single
veteran vote.
The National tribune., 1894-08-23
THE TARIFF BILL,

No doubt is entertained by anyone
that the President will sign the German
Brice Tariff Bill now before him. The
reason given for the delay is that the
bill, having no date, will go into effect
as soon as approved by the President,
and therefore it is necessary to give the
Custom-house officers time to get fully
acquainted with its provisions before
they are called upon to execute them.
In the meanwhile the holders of
whisky are rushing it out of bond, so as
to save the 20 cents gallon additional
tax, and so are the sugar men.
In spite of the almost interminable
consideration of the bill, it is full of
grave errors, and much trouble is ex-
pected when it comes to its execution.

HSAXING MONEY!

What is thought Of man in private
life who "saves money" by not paying
his honest debts? . ~
What is be called who, with obliga-
tions against him for service rendered,
proved years ago and fully admitted,
wriggles around g and juggles, takes
advantage of every technicality, and,
finally, knowing that his creditors are
old, suffering from disease and near
deaths door, slaves off payment by
every trick and device in order that
their death may relieve him from pay
ment?
If this is criminally dishonest IN a
private debtor, how inconceivably worse
it is in the great Government Of the
United States in the treatment of the
patriotic men who 80 years ago saved it
from destruction at the cost of their own
physical ruin?
This is precisely what is done when
S25,000,000, owed for years to the dis
abled, enfeebled, and dying veterans
are "saved and turned back into the
Treasury.
All the meanness, shuffling, dishonor-
able, debt-evading of all the mean, dis
honest men in the land are concentrated
in and surpassed by this shameful re-
pudiation Of the Governments obliga-
tons to those who saved its very life.
Every one-even the bitterest enemies
of the soldiers that there are hun
dreds of millions of dollars lawfully due
the veterans and their dependent ones.
The force at work in the Pension Office
should be duplicated or quadrupled if
necessary in order to settle the claims of
these men and pay them their money.

commerce.
By controlling our own markets we
assure to every workingman in our
country enough to support him in COM
fort. We can give him enough to sup
port and educate his family as Ameri-
cans should be. The mirage Of free
trade and foreign commerce, on the
other hand, means the surrender of our
inconceivably-rich home market to the
bloated trusts and starving labor of
Europe 1t means that the gains of
every producer in this country shall be
reduced to level with the wages Of the
laboring helots of foreign lands. In re-
turn, we are promised chance at "the

Then the National Tribune Will Fur
nish You Transportation.

The comrades are now beginning to
think seriously of attending the great Ma
tional Encampment Of the Grand Army
of the Republic, which is to be held in
Pittsburg next September. As usual,
the question of transportation is the first
one to consider, and here THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE comes in with its offer of
assistance, as it has done in previous
National Encampments. 1t will give
every comrade an easy chance of obtain
ing first-class ticket over the railroad
from his home to Pittsburg and return,
by obtaining small club of subscribers
to the paper. This is great opportunity.
All the old veterans want The Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE, and are ready to take
it if some one will ask them to subscribe.
Anyone can get a ticket with little
effort. Write to us for further informal
ton as to the number of subscribers we
will require for ticket.
Some comrades may find it easier or
prefer to solicit for subscribers to The
american Farmer, as there may be many
more farmers than veterans among their
neighbors. We will make the same offer
for clubs for that paper.
Write us at once for terms and sam
pie copies and begin work at once.
Subscribers can be sent in as they are
obtained, and will be credited on the
ticket offer. If enough are not secured
to entitle the canvasser to a ticket they
can be applied on any other premium.

THE Cuckoo papers of Mr.. Henry G.
Turner's District, way down near the
Okefonokee Swamp, in southeastern
Georgia, are telling how he completely
foored the Republican Ajax, Tom Reed,
IN his chosen field of parliamentary con-
tention." Singular how this totally
escaped the attention of all those poll
ticians and correspondents who have
been YEARLY waiting year in and year
out for somebody to rise up who could
even incompletely floor Tom Reed.
The National tribune., 1894-08-23


Hon. w. r. SPRINGER is delighting
his constituents with a story of how he
"got away with Tom Reed" The story
is made to run that Mr.. Reed having re-
marked, "Mr. Speaker, I'd rather be
right than be President" the Hon. Mr..
Springer "settled him" by saying, 90,
sit down; you'll never be either" Evil

his constituents read the comic para

jokelet out in Ayers Almanac in 1852.

THE FORBES PICTURES.

The series Of the Forbes War Sketches
has now concluded, and we publish this
week an extra coupon, to which we in
vite the attention of our readers. While
many thousand of our readers have
availed themselves of the opportunity
we offered them to obtain this splendid
series of pictures, thousands more who
wanted them have put off getting them
to more convenient time. We now
give them one more chance. By send
ing in the coupon and 10 cents they can
get any special number they may have
missed, or with 81 they can get the
whole series. Do not delay any longer
to improve this chance to get incom-
parably the finest and most realistic set
of pictures produced Of the war. They
are gems for anybody. The Emperors,
Kings, and great military men of Eu-
rope, and all the art lovers and leading
men of this country made haste to pro-
cure these sketches, at $50 a set. We
offer copies printed from the same plates
at 50. No veteran should be without
them.

ITALY has adopted the most sensible
plan with the Anarchists. She will send
them to some of her colonies in Africa
There they will make up settlement of
their own. The climate is pleasant and
healthful, the soil fertile. They can
have what they produce, and if they
don't produce anything they will not
have anything. They can make their
own laws, and if they throw bombs at
each other no innocent people will suffer.
We might acquire some territory in the
pleasant highlands of Central America
for like purpose.

can get decent price for it, all may yet

WHEN voters see wheat selling at "a

WE believe that the war in the East
will be decided by a great naval battle.
Both Japan and China have to reach
Korea by water, for the land route from
China is impracticable. Therefore, if
one navy can whip out the other the
matter will be settled, for the beaten side
cannot maintain its troops in the pen
insula.
