IS 1T CLASS LEGISLATION.
Mr.. Harries Claims 1t Is to Pension
Dependent Veterans Only.

To the Editor of the Globe
In offering a brief reply to your answer
to my communication published in Friday S
@, | will contine myself far as
possible to your allegation that "a pension
being pure gratuity, not compelled by any
form Of obligation to the recipient, should
be conditioned, not upon merit, but upon his
needs" or in other words, no one should
receive a pension who can support himself.
On your theory you would pension d class,
many of whom the least deserving, and
encourage others TO place themselves in
condition to obtain what you term the
'gratuity' of the government.
This class that you would pension by your
method would be looked upon as a pauper
class, because confined to those who have
no other means of support. good many
men of wealth entered the army, but nobody
then said they did not have moral right
to their pay, which was in 1861 $l3 per month.
and afterwards raised to SIG per month, for
the private soldiers, simply because they
had plenty of means of their own
1 recall the fact that Gen. James S. Wads
worth, of New York, a very wealthy man,
at first refused to receive any pay for his
that the government insisted on his taking
what was his due, and that he then did so,
but Immediately turned it over to the hos
pital fund to be used in caring for the sick
and wounded.
The government may demand the services
of it's citizens in time Of need, even without
compensation, and you might just as well say
that the soldier who responded by perform
ing his duty was not morally entitled to his
monthly pay, as to say he did not have a
moral right to pension If able to support
himself.
Pension rates, according to the degree Of
disability, were on the statutes of the United
States Of America at the time of the enlist
ment of the soldiers. the same was also the
case as to his monthly rate Of pay. The pen
sion rates for certain disabilities have been
changed, so have the rates Of the monthly
pay Of the soldier.
Every man is entitled to be treated upon
equality before the law in this republic, and
I believe most emphatically, that no distinc-
ton should be made in the treatment of its
citizens who perform services for her in
time Of need be they rich or poor.
Those who entered the service as soldiers
are perfectly willing to contribute their share
towards the payment Of pensions to these
entitled to the same and the others who did

generation) should be made to- I have been
prompted in writing about this matter to

tons Hanna is bestirring himself and
seeking strength Of reinforcement IN
every quarter.
Congress having baked Secretary
Morton in his efforts to discontinue the
seed distribution scandal and having
made the usual purchase mandatory,
Secretary Wilson advertised for bids
for the customary supply of cabbage
and beet rutabaga and turnip, squash
and pumpkin seeds with which our dis
tinguished statesmen will delight the
hearts of their farmer constituents next
spring and pave the way to their own
denomination and reelection Blds
came in from seedsmen, and among
them one from an insignificant and UNI
known firm doing limited business in
Toledo, which is in the northwest cor
ner of the state of Hanna. Also there
came telegram to James Wilson, sec
rotary of agriculture, from Mark Han
ma, which one who saw it assures US
read as follows: Il want - (the Toledo
firm) to get the seed contract if it is
possible. 1t means much to me. The
Toledo firm got the contract, but it is
fair to the secretary to state that 1t
was the lowest bidder. We question If
ever a party boss before ventured to
make such a suggestion to cabinet
officer having a government contract
to award. 1t serves, however, to fur
Their exemplify Mr.. Hanna's idea OF
his power as national chairman and or
the discipline he is authorized to use
for the good of the party" as stated
by him during the campaign. He blunt
ly told his fellow Republicans that he
was the commanding general; that 1t
was his function to give commands, and
it was theirs only to obey. Holding
such views and regarding his relations
to the president as those Of maker
and made, it is not surprising that he
saw not only no improperly, but
legitimate use of his position in telling
that officer what he wanted in the
way of the award of a government con-
tract The surprise is that he should
have felt it incumbent to add that 1T

Shakespeares Comedy of Errors" as pre-
scented by Stuart Robson and his company,
at the Metropolitan opera house last night,
is not such representation of the great
dramatist's farce as the mind OF the ap-
prec:ative reader might conceive and hope
for. Neither is it calculated TO minister to the
enjoyment of the people who do not read
Shakespeare. This is no reflection upon Mr..
Robson's two Dromios. They are diferenti-
atoms Of Mr.. Robson, and each twin is neces-
sarily funny, and be 1t said to Mr.. Robson S
credit, Shakespearean.
But the presentation, worthy as 1t IS from
scenic standpoint, some of the scenes de-
lighting the eye, does not diffuse the spirit,
create the keen anticipat,ons begin to
realize the rare touches, the fanciful conceits,
the poetic beauties of the text Perhaps no
Interpretation of Shakespeare, through any
other medium than his own words, perfectly
satisfies the thinking mind. But the theater-
goer is sensitive to the efforts of an apprecia-
tive delineator of character. He never fails
to- recognize nature. Shakespeare never failed
to portray nature. Some of the dramatis
personae in last nights cast did not reveal
the characters of the COMEDY Of Errors
in their true light.
Mr.. Robson's Dromios were very unique
creatures. 1t were mere surplusage to say
that they were funny. 1t was a pleasure to
note the relish with which Mr. Robson de-
lvered the characteristic speeches of Dronio
of Syracuse and the matter of fact emphasis
with which he repeated the puns of Dromio Of
Ephesus. Mr.. Robson is too reverent a player
to slight a Shakespeareanism.
Two other members of the company grasped
the dramatist's conceptions, Edwin Holt and
Miss Ida Mcmillan. The former played
Antipholus Of Syracuse the noble, the sedate,
the gentle, the loving twin brother. Mr.. Holt
seemed to comprehend the character. His
impersonation possessed the color, the vitality
and the individuality that distinguish one
man from another.
Miss Mcmillan impersonated the Courtezan-
necessary, if not a respectable character,
In this comedy. 1t was only . "bit'' that
Miss Mcmillan had, but it was all-suffic.ent
to demonstrate her quick sympathy with
creation moulded in nature
Mrs. Robson did not give Shakespeare's
Adriana. Her imperSonation was lacking in
color, in individuality. While Mrs Robson
never offends the intelligence, one cannot
but admit that she is far better adapted to
breezy comedy than to the portrayal of
petulant and Lachrymese wives. Neither d.d
Miss Gertrude Perry realize the spirit of
sweet femininity that so becomes Luciano.
Luciano, like Petruchios Katherine. ac-
knewledges that man is the lord of creation
but Miss Perry comes dangerously near being
pert.
word about the incidental music will not
be amiss. Last night the orchestra succeeded
in drowning several of the lines, a happy
stroke in the case Of extrayag anza, but Hardly
fair to the immortal William
