Rev. DR.. Radcliffe tells a good wild west
story TO the members Of his congregation
when he is after liberal donation on any Oc-
casion. 1t was told to him. says q writer in
the Detroit News.Tribune by d friend who
was at one time an itinerant Methodist mis-
slonary. Hls friend was working in the
wllds OF Arizona. One Saturday evening the
missionary entered mining camp whose in
habitants had lost all track of sunday. He
went to the biggest saloon in the camp and
introduced himself, telling the proprietor
that the following dav was sunday and that
he would like to preach a sermon TO the min
ers. The proprietor name was Jake.
All right, said Jake. we Will lie glad to
have You. L will hX it with the boys"
He did tx IL and all of the saloons were
closed when II came time to deliver the ser
mon. The exercises were held in the big
saloon, and Jake made himl elf master Of
ceremonies. The missionary took his stand
against the bar and delivered his discourse to
all the i0lors in the town who had collected in
the saloon. At the close of his address he
umidy suggested that travelling was eXpen

That RolI Of Honor.

There is more demagogy in connection
with the pension question than with any
other that is the subject OF LEGISLATION. If
there were less politics connected with it
and more patriotism it would be handled
with far more Justice. As long as it can
be made the means Of boosting men into
congress and Of keeping many Of those
there who have obtained their positions
by its help the pension burden will be
steadily increased. A third OF all the
revenue Of the government is now required
TO pay the pension charge, and there are
men in congress who never saw a battle
and who DO not know what war is who
are hOwling themselves hoarse for pen
sion for every man who was mustered
into the union armies
Twenty years ago no man in the coun-
try thought the pension charge would
ever reach 5O,0Oo 900 a year. Garfield
asserted On the floor Of the House that it
would never reach S30,OO00]o. He had
but little comprehension Of the extent TO
which the treasury would be used for po-
litical purposes. The annual appr0pria-
ton for pensions is now more than Sl50,-
600. 900. and still the demagorues cry for
more. No man can even approximately
estimate what the pension burden would
be if the Republican party should be re-
turned to power.
The Cleveland administration is
charged with being hostile to pensions.
There never was a more unjust charge.
1t is made by those who want to loot the
treasury, and it is believed by tens Of
thousands Of people who are misled by
those who have a purpose in misleading
them.
The true veterans Of the union armies,
those who were honorable soldiers, would
like 10 see the pension roll q roll of honor.
That is what the Cleveland administra-
tion wants to make it. The domagogues
in congress, the claim agents and those
Who were camp foIlowerers, deserters
and bounty jumpers oh ecc. If the pen
sion roll were made a roll of honor thou
sands Of names it is believed that are
now borne on it would he struck of.
They are there by mistake, by fraud and
by misrepresentation.
That the roll contains names it should
not is shown by the violent and angry
opposition to a thorough inspection Of it,
The result Of an inspection would be
startling, and would bring the republican
administration Of the pension Office into
disrepute. That is why every attempt
to make the pension roll a roll Of homer is
met by angry protests.
1t is.charged that the south is opposed
to giving pensions to union veterans, and
that she wants pensions for her own vet
erans. The charge is without foundation
The south is willing that the genuine
veterans Of the union armies who suffer
from disabilities shall have pensions, but
she objects 10 having tens of thousands of
frauds saddled upon the treasury. She
expects nothing for her own veterans and
she asks nothing. She is taking care of
those who cannot take care of them
selves.
All the south asks is that the pension
laws shall be strictly interpreted and
honestly administered. If this is done
she will bear her part of the pension bur
den without murmur

Gen. Jubal A. Earlys familiar friends
used to refer TO him as Lees bad old
man by way of establishing a contrast
Between him and Stonewau jackson,
whose piety was as proverbial as kuowl-
edge of it was widespread. Early was
bad old man only in that he would
frown and shout and swear when there
was hard fighting TO be done: ana it
seemed that he could fight the harder for
an oath or two in the right place. But
Jubal Early was not bad old man" in
any other sense whatsoever. He was a
typical man Of his country and his genera
tion; and that means he was brave.
tender-hearted and forever true to his
principles. His record as a soldier can be
safely left TO history; his worth as a
man is best known to his personal friends
and the poor in the various cities in which
he lived There win probably be those
who viii seek TO attack his memory be-
cause Of his long connection with a lottery
company. On that score it need only to
be said that George Washington was
once connected with lottery and that il
has Eeen only a comparatively short
while since lotteries under the protection
Of the law, were in vogue all over the
land And what Gen. Early got out of
the lottery in the way Of salary, he
gave back TO the people. He received
