Pensions.
During the year the commander received
reports from - pensioncr, in this depart
ment. who reported that they had received
notice that thereafter their pensions would
cease. These cases were reported To nj
tional Headquarters, and "a large per cent
of them have been restored to the rolls
Under tlis heading the commander said
il seemed hard that one antagonistc TO the
old soldier (lIokc SMITH should have con-
trol of the welfare and comfort of the
helpless survivors of the terrible conflict.
Not content with its policy OF attack and
suspension, the administration publicly
charged those on the roll of honor with
being a band of perjurers, frauds and
cheats. The national encampment severe
" condemned this action and refuted any
grounds for such statements Neyerthe-
less marching through Georgia is replaced
by Georgia marching through us. The
clamor OF fraud does not come from the
eX-Confederate soldiers TO any extent, but
mostly from a class of northern men whose
loyalty was questionable all through the
war. Many of the so-called claim agents
at our national capitol are either very care
less in their work, or are INSCRIPTIONS and
dishonest. As a rule a pensioner can bet
ter manage his own case at home, than to
trust it to a shark system beyond his
reach. What we want and demand is sim
ply such a fair and just construction of the
pension system as shall assure that no de
