A COINCIDENCE.

that "rhe New-Yorli Sun" printed the morning
after election, entitled "NewYor,s Advertise

Tracy. That was the article which, after de-
scrlbing the awful things that the Low Repub-
Leans under the leadership OF The Tribune had
DONE ended with this fine burst OF exultation:
"But they have not elected Seth Low, and,
"thank God. they have not broken down The
Republican party in the Greater New-York.'
That article was particularly fine, and nobody
appreciated either its beauty or its value as an
advertisement more than The Tribune. We
hoped 1t would gain wider circulation than
"The Sun could give it, and looked for It's re-
production, but the result has been beyond all
our expectation 1t never occurred to us that

THE PENSION ROLLS.

II IS not denied that many errors and frauds
have crept into the pension rolls. That the
number OF these Is insignificant, compared with
the pensions meritcd by devoted service and
strictly authorized by law, does not alter the
fact that considerable sums are fraudulently
drawn from The public Treasury and disbursed
TO persons who have neither legal nor moral
right 10 them. The few definite Instances OF
that character which are made known from
time to time in various localities and are there
recognized as evidence that the law has been
abused naturally lead TO a widespread impress
sion that the frauds are far more numerous
than they actually are, 50 that great injustice
to the cause Of the deserving pensioners Is done
by their continuance. Public feeling in regard
10 the magnitude OF pension disbursements Is
greatly affected by the suspicion that, as some
part Of the payments has been secured through
fraud or error the proportion so secured may
be indefinitely large. 1t was TO this feeling that
President Cleveland and the politicians about
him appealed when an overhauling and puria-
