PENSION FooLIsfINEss.

While the panslcn resolutions which
were adopted by the Grand Army CT
the Republic imply criticism of Com
missioner Evans, it is evident that the
supporters of them have little hope
that the president will do anything i'll
the matter The resolutions are really
an appeal to congress to amend the
pension laws so as to deprive the pen
sion commissioner Of much OF the dis
cretionary power he now exercises over
pension payments. 1t is doubtful,
however, if congress will be disposed
to take action that may tend to lessen
present precautions against fraudulent
pension claims. With the existing
treasury deficit and with the prospect
of heavy war expenditures fer some
time to come congress is not likely to
sanction a new drain on the federal
treasury.-N. Y. Commercial Adver-

BRAHM1Ns OF AMERICA.


While New England largely domi-
mates the life and thought CT the ma
ton, it is a curious fact that New Eng
land has always produced Brahmin
caste of men who hold alCof from the
currents Of national aspiration. Il we
analyze this feeling we shall find thai
it proceeds from sort Of parochialism
that the Yankee has inherited from
England, and which, in the old coun-
try, has produced the Little Englander.
Such men we find to be quiet, home
keeping people, satisfied with the dull
routine of their village life, anxious
only to prosper in business, and con-
temptuously Indifferent to the welfare
or the fate CT the graf outside world.
What do we care fer EbrCad?" is the

TOM REED OF NEW YORK.

The report that Mr.. Reed will retain
his citizenship down in Maine, while
pr&cticing law in New York, would
seem TO lack adequate foundation, in
view cf the rules gov; r1ing the prac-
tice eff law in the courts of New York
Mr.. Reed must. as condition prior to
his admission by the supreme court
CT New York, file an affidavit that he
lives in the county of New York; that
h. has lived in that county for a GER
tain length CT time, and that he in
tends permanently to reside and prac-
tiCe law in the county of New York.
With an affidavit of that kind, supple
mented by a certificate frcm one OF the
judges OF the highest court Of the state
of Maine, that Mr.. Reed has been \
practitioner before that court for three
years, he can be admitted to the New
York bar on motion. 1t will be seen
from this rule that Mr.. Reed must Qc-
quire "a. residence, in New York, and,
if he does that, he cannot maintain d
residence in the state OF Maipe.-Bos-

to Phoenix, a distance of 1877 miles 1t

in 1895. Since that time the property
has shown steady growth, gross earn
ings per mile expanding from S2956
for the fiscal y1sr ending June 90, 1896,
tc S4,046 per mile for the year just
closed. In the last annual report Of
the AtchisCn reference was made to
the traffic contract existing between
that company and the Santa Fee, Pres
colt and Phoenix, and it was stated
that the traffic interchange at Ash
FORK had continued to increase and
that the road had become an important
feeder to the Atchison system For
the year ending June 80, 1899, the gross
earnings were $S75, 2S8 and the net in
come $430.957. interest On the first
