A Pension Office Trick Exposed.

Senator s. V. Cullom of Illinois, in his re-
cent speech ON the conduct of the pension
office, said: notice that the changes in
the pension Office have been conducted on a
kind Of cheese-paring business. Take, for
instance, two pages of the document which
/ have before me. / find here twenty y-one
cases where pensioners were drawing S18 a
month, who have been reduced 81 each
1t seems to me that that was a tremendous
effort on the part of these numerous special
agents, who have been travelling over the
country and trying to find some fault with
the pensioners and the pension system, to
hunt up all this vast number of persons, and
while they are good soldiers, while they are
entitled to pension, to cut them off just a
little, in order to make a record in behalf of
the democratic policy. This is too small
business to be encouraged by anybody, and
least of all by great political organization.
1t ought to be stopped. If there are any
thieves drawing pensions, take their PEN
siohs away; but to go over the whole list,
neighborhood by neighborhood, county by
county, and state by state. all over the
United States, examine every man and re-
duce his pension fifty cents, or seventy five
cents, or 81, or So, in order to make a record,
seems to me to be an outrage upon the sol
diers themselves, which ought not to be toll
Grated by the party in power"
The cutting an S18 pension one dollar is
not depriving the soldier of that amount
only, but also of So month, of which, it
seems, the average congressman is not
| aware. A law was made several years
since substituting the S24 rate of pension
for the SIS one; therefore every pensoner
disabled in a degree that entities him to
SIS is entitled to S24. Prior to that enact
ment there had been no SIT rating for in.
valid pension Except for rank) The rates
were on the even numbers of $14, SIG, and
SIS, and now when the S17 rate is used it is
to avoid paying $24, and shows an unfairness
to the soldier that ought not TO be permitted
in great government like ours without
action by the law. making power. To ac
well for the government is noble, and even
to speak we'll of it is not without merit
But to deal justly with the humblest claim
ant, that no right which the law gives tC
any individual be lost, is an honor tha
tends to make strong and happy nation.

The Remarkable MOxie Business.

= Seven years ago Lieutenant Moxie, while
exploring in Central and South America,
found the natives using the extract from a
sugarcane-like plant with most remarkable
results after severe, fatiguing labor, dissi-
patton and heavy losses of blood. Examin-
alton under the microscope determined it to
be rich vegetable albuminoid. 1t was
brought to the United States and tested.
In weakly, exhausted persons, it seemed to
feed the nerves to remarkable durable
vigor, and did not stimulate or lose its eff
feet more than other food. 1t recovered
a large number of helpless cases of paraly-
sis Of long standing, caused by excessive
overwork and study, but did not affect pa
ralysis caused by the etfusion of fluids
around the trunks OF the nerves. Now
every tired-out, overworked, nervous and
weakly person in the country is using it as
a common beverage. The druggists are
loaded up with it, and grocers leave it with
their family trade, as they do other foods.
1t sells to both sick and well, everywhere it
is known. Probably no one thing ever so
Moxie, Its usefulness among all classes
of complaints, often with medicine, has no
limit Physicians say that the nerves are
the seat of animal life, and their force gov
erns the functions of the body. If the
nerves are strong enough to execute these,
the body is healthy. II not, health is i'm
possible. The intense rush and overwork
of our people constantly overtask and break
down the nerves. and probably millions OF
our people now take Moxie the year round
to sustain or mend the i'll effects Of this
overstrain. The possibilities of its business
limits cannot be- seen now. 1t will soon be
as colossal as the trade in tea and coffee
1t is cheaper twenty cents for quart
bottle.

IN an interview accorded by Senator
Voorhees, on Monday to q newspaper re-
preventative. that gentleman said many
things. He predicted as follows:
III legislation shall entirely fail at this
time, owing to a stubborn disagreement
as to whether there shall be a small
duty on coal and small duty on IRON
ore, or whether these two articles shall
be oh the free list. the men who make
that result inevitable may rest assured
that they will be held In everlasting re-
membrance and everlasting excavation.
that they viii be burned In effigy from one
ocean TO the other. and their names will
be pillofied In the deteststion Of the
American people"
II this prediction is likely to prove
true, surely the members OF Congress
know the fact; and II they know such to
be the fact. surely the Democrats ought
TO make haste to pass a tariff bill. - w

The Penisentiary Farm.

We are glad to know that arrange
mepts have been nearly. concluded for
the purchase Of a farm to be operated
In connection with the penitentiary.
There are now more than 1900 prisoners
On the rolls Of that institution. and the
mems cells are most numerically
crowded. The wonder Is that the Super
intendent and his assistants have been
able to keep the prisoners healthy in a
building densely packed as the peniten-
tiary Is.
On the farm convicts who cannot be
employed better within the walls or upon
public works can be made to do some
thing towards supporting themselves, and
the places they vacate will give that
much more room for those who must re-
main within the walls.
