REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONERS OF

PENSIONS.
Commissioner Evans has substantially
completed his annual report, and ii will
soon be ready for the public.
One of the main features of it will be
strong rec ommendation to Congress tc
prohibit young women from marrying
veterans in order to secure pensions
This is already feature of the act Of
June q, 1890, and the Commissioner
wants the same restriction attached to
the old laws.
The report will show that there
are now on the pension. list the
names of 9S3,62S pensioners. The
year before there were but 970,534
pensioners. The presence of this addi-
tional 1890 names, Commissioner
Evans explains, is due to his having
taken up and disposed of large mum
Der of old claims for arrears of pen
sions, which he found on file when he
took charge of the office a year ago.
There are great number of these, and
they have been accumulating in the
office for years. Nearly the whole 49,
900 increase comes from such of these
old claims as have been allowed, and
there are still large numbers of the
ancient claims which are yet to be dis
posed of. The number of these which
are likely to be allowed, he intimates,
will at least meet the losses on the rolls
by death for the next year.
:" 1 predict, however" he says, that
after the year 1898 the number will be-
gin to drop, and after it once begins to
to go down it will decline very rapidly.
The soldiers of the late war are getting
old very fast and many of them passed
away during the last year"
The expenditures during the year
just ended were also greater than those
of the year before by little more than
100000. They amounted to s142,-
477,S4180. Commissioner Evans says
that only about 100000 of this is
an increase in the disburse-
ments for the year, because another mil
lion should have been added to the dis
bursements of the year before and sub
tracted from his list.
"While the report Of Commissioner
Lochren," says Commissioner Evans,
shows that but s139,2SO,OOO was
spent On account Of pensions during
1S95-'96, this does not include the en-
tire amount Of money which should have
been paid out under my predecessor.
Just before the fiscal year ended June
30, 1896, closed Commissioner Lochren
stopped the payment of pensions for
about 20 days in the month of June.
These disbursements were not made until
July, or in the next fiscal year. My
administration had to assume the pay
nent of these claims, although they ma
,ured during the term of Commissioner
Lochren. They amounted to about
100000. W.

THE CRETIN REBELLION.

Greek fires are now burning on the
island of Crete and it is not altogether
improbable that they may Toe the signal
for a general European war, although the
later dispatches indicate that the powers
will permit King George, OF Greece, to
occupy the island and annex it to his
little kingdom.
Crete has been q province of Turkey
for 200 years and has a population COM
posed OF Christians and Mussulmen. 1t
took twenty-four years OF fighting, in
which over thirty thousand Christians
and nearly one hundred and twenty
thousand Turks were killed or wounded
before the sultan was able to conquer the
island in 1869, and since that time it has
been the scene OF constant cruelty and
frequent outbreaks and instructions.
The present war.like demonstrations of
Greece are credited to Mussulman butch.
cry OF Christian subjects, although it is
known that Greece has long been covet-
ously watching Crete with a view to an
nexation.
BY location, by sympathy, by language
and by historical associations Crete be
longs TO Greece and this union would
mean passage from medieval darkness
to the light of modern freedom. 1t would
mean the restoration OF ancient prosper.
ty which once supported "a hundred
cities" for the island has lost none of its
former fertility and its magnificent eli
mate has not changed under the rule OF
the bloody Turk and under liberal and
progressive government, such as is de-
veloping in Greece, it would agaiI
become one of the worlds garden spots
and the Mecca of those who travel to
secure LIES most favored blessings

This state is on the verge OF wiping out
all of her saloons and wholesale liquor
houses 10y adopting a prohIbitory law
similar to that governing the sale Of
liquors in South Carolina. This dispen-
sary act known as the Cline bill, passed
the house Tuesday by u vote OF T. ayes
to - noes, much to the surprise OF the
house itself. The measure was supported
by nearly all OF the middle of-the.road
popuIists and by q few silver republicans.
The proposed law puts the full control OF
the liquor traffic in the hands OF the gov
ernor, bat eliminates from the South
Carolina law the profit system that brings
that state an enormous revenue. The
The Washington bill provides that the
governor shall appoint state commits
sion, which in turn shall appoint county
commissioners. and they in turn appoint
local dispensers, all liquor beng handled
through the state commission, with "A
sufficient profit attached to pay all OF the
tAFtllst vi Tue inherent DD,niS ana as
pensatories. No liquor is sold at retail
to be drunk upon the premises, and min.
ors and drunkards are prohibited, under
penalties against state agents, from re
ceivng it. Liquor is to he sold only in
quantities OF not less than half a pint or
more than five gallons. The bill passed
without amendment, the motion to re-
consider was voted down, and the friends
of the measure are confident it will pass
the senate. Representative Warner in q
caucus of the populists said tina bill was
the death kneIl OF the fusion party in
Washington, while Roberts of Spokane
claimed that with this bill becoming a
law, his county, which at the last cleo.
ton gave 800 majority for the fusionists,
would next time give a majority OF 5000
against them.

The bill looking to the removal of the
state capital from Olympia was ndeiii-
nitely postponed 10y a majority of one,
but the bill to repeal the act Of the last
legislature providing for the erection OF a
million dollar capitol building, passed
the house by vote OF IL to 80. Suisse
quently, upon the statement that the
building contracts already entered into
were binding, the action was reconsider
ed and further discussion postponed I'M
Ill tbe latter part of this week There is
no probability that any appropriation
will be made to carry on the work, and
as no money can be raised on the lands
granted to the state for this purpose, the
indications are that a capitol building
adequate to the requirements and com
mensurate with the importance of this
developing commonwealth, Will not be
built for some years 10 come, and then at
a point which will better suOserve the
interests OF the people than the present
location.

The subject of validating and funding
the floating Indebtedness OF Yakima will
be brought up at the next regular term of
the county commissioners, and it is sin
cerely to be hoped that it will be
submitted to the vote Of the tax
payers for approval. BY bonding
this Indebtedness direct saving would
be made in interest to the amount of six
or seven thousand dollars year while a
still greater amount would be saved by
placing the county on cash basis and
thus securing supplies at greatly re.
duced rate, which cannot now be obtain
ed because of the heavy discounts on
warrants and certificates OF Indebtedness.
This saving should 20 into a sinking
fund for the redemption of the bonds
and THE HERALD understands it is the
purpose ,of the commissioners, should
the proposed plans be carried out to
create and maintain such redemption
fund

The Oregon legislature has been block
ed tor the entire session, and has not even
been able to organize the House. The
OregOnidn says Mitchell did it because
he wanted to be elected United States
senator; Mitchell says Jonathan Bourne
did it because he wanted to be speaker
OF the House MtchelPs friends says the
Oregonian did it to beat its pet enemy.
However it may be, it has been done to
a turn, and it is something for the
state OF Oregon to be ashamed of-some-
thing worse than the worst our legislature
can possibly do.
