Voted the Pension.

Somebody the other day repeated to a
Cleveland Plain Dealer man 4 story OF
Senator Jones of Nevada. which was told
at a Roadside club dinner not long ago
The incident was the result of one OF
President Cleveland's vetoes. The preSi-
dent had vetoed an old woman's pension
bill on the grounds that she got drunk. .
''Once in San Francisco said Senator
Jones. as he discussed the veto on the
senate floor, "a man fell into a hole in
the SIDEWALK and sued the city for his in
juries. The defense put up that the man
was drunk. This nightly incensed the
court.
There is nothing in such a defense,
said the court, savagely. a drunken man
has as much right 10 have perfect side
walk as a sober man, and needs one
worse
That" concluded Jones, SIS the way
feel about this old lady's pension And
he voted TO pass ii over the veto. The
pension went through.
