CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
THE LATE SPANISH LOAN.

Spain must have a genuine belief in
her ability to thrash out the Cuban re-
bellion at no distant date, for her
finances are hardly in a condition TO
maintain a struggle of many years
further duration. II is true that the
recent national loan of 100000 600 Pc
setas (say e13,30O,O ,OO0) was raised at
once, and, indeed subscribed to nearly
twice over, but how was II effected
Madrid took up more than half. but the
balance over the provinces was raised
by the persuasion of the priests, who,
with cries of patriotism, defence of
home and defence of the church, almost
squeezed the money out of tho people.
I have been assured, over and over
again. in Andalucia, that many sub
scribed to the loan as "a matter OF
FORM" and resold their allotments at
once from sheer necessity.
A further loan is talked Of, but II

than make fresh appeals TO those WHOSE

president have erred in such matters
their mistakes have been in favor OF
the pensioner and against the tax
payer, rather than the other way.
But in the face OF all this Senator
Gallinger and his committee propose to
dump all these bills, that have ever
made any progress before, on Congress,
and recommend their passage without
the slightest discrimination. The tax
payers of this nation are glad to see
every deserving soldier pensioned for
any loss or injury he has sustained in
defending his country, and in case of
his death to pension his family for the
loss Of his support. And this is being
done They pension those who never
received any injury in the war, but who
have become disabled by any later in
jury or infrmity. Under laws so liberal
as these there seems little occasion for
any special legislation on the subject
by Congress. Among the claims pend
ing before Congress as well as those
before the Bureau of Pensions, there
are many that are devoid of merit We
have in mind a case where pension was
granted for loss of an arm; later de.
velopments proved conclusively the
arm was shot off while the pensioner
was breaking into a store to rob IT,.
Pension was granted a widow for loss
of husband and thereby his support.
when as a matter of fact she had been
living in open adultery with another
man for years before the death of her
husband. We could cite the cases by
the hundreds, but these serve to Illus
trate the abuses Of our laws The pen
sion roll should be a roll Of honor, and
every name on it one that is not only
most deserving of the nations bounty.
but it's gratitude; but every fraudulent
claim that is allowed casts odium upon
those that have been granted before.
The object of Senator Gallinger and his
party is neither to preserve the honor
and credit of the nations loyal de-
tenders norfo regard the rights of the
already overburdened taxpayers. Il
seems to be simply a course of public
plunder. They want to advertise the
administration as being not only lib
eral, but prodigal in the granting of
pensions. They will not be content
with the operations Of the Pension Bu-
reau that now, thirty years after the
war, is still granting pensions by the
hundreds every day, but they give no.
tice that Congress itself is to be run as
a pension annex to grind out pensions
upon the shortest notice, without regard
to merit, law or evidence.
