OF persistent effort, effected settlement

Upon this basis the members OF Com.

so much OF a soldiers home, and this de.
scription Is made by the commissioner to
answer the charges OF incompetency OF his
force when in fact it is q confession that the
charges are true.
General Thomas says Mr.. Deavitt is a
successful and masterful attorney, whose
pension practice Is one of the largest in
New England, who would not take fraud
ulent or unworthy case. He is a friend OF
the soldier, and took such an interest in es-
tablishing a soldiers home in Vermont he
has been called the father of that popular
institution, and gave 800 and several large
battle scene pictures toward furnishing IL,
and his disbarment by the commissioners
OF pensions for having the courage to criti-
else his anti-pension policy, reminds the
general NJ m" alien and selition laws OF
1898, when Matthew Lyon, u congressman
from Vermont was accused OF publicly
reading letter from abroad in which the
writer wondered why Congress did not
send President Adams to mad-house, was
fined 81 900 and imprisoned four months,
and the editor OF the Gazette who comment
cd on the enormity OF such action received
a like sentence. They served out the time
OF their imprisonment together and on be-
ing liberated at its end received great re-
ception from the enraged people who con-
domned the Adams administration and de-
feated his reelection and repealed the Sc
dition laws that have gone into oblivion,
and Congress afterwards voted to pay back
TO Mr.. Lyon the 81 900 fine he paid. Will the
pension office repay to Desvitt the personal
damage 1t has done him? asked the gen.
ersl. Although that Office Is created by
act OF Congress, may they not have as much
power to correct their errors as they have
to require members OF Congress to sign a
certificate that the applicant for a pension
for whom they ask information resides
within their district and that the request
for the information does not come from an
attorney, thereby making the creature
greater than its creator.

The Fourth In Montpelier.

Not Tor many years has the Fourth OF
July in Montpelier passed with 80 little OF
the sleep destroying racket as was heard
Monday night and early Tuesday morning.
Perhaps the reason for this was correctly
given bv an urchin who overheard two
police officers commenting upon the quiet
8 ate OF affairs. Were waiting till Dewey
comes" said the lad, land then we'll whoop
'er up to beat the cars"
The streets presented a deserted appear
ance all day. Nearly all the stores were
closed, and hundreds Of people went to
Burlington, Barre and Berlin pond. G. H.
Stewart cared for nearly two hundred
teams during the day at the latter place.
To WATCHMAN reporter he said 1t was the
heaviest days business he had ever done.
The shores of the pond, on both sides, were
lined with people, and boats were at a
premium. No casualties worthy the name
we're reported in city or country and wi
the coming of darkness Tuesday night the
racket practically ceased.

The religion of Bedouin tribe seems
to be to move onward" Having once
begun the nomadic life it becomes al
most necessary for them to keep it
up. In the first place they don't want
to settle down, and they wouldn't have
any place to stop If they wanted to.
Sometimes 1t becomes eXpedient that
they make great haste in these long
journeys. Wandering around over the
plains are other tribes whose only oc-
cupation is moving on" There Is fire.

may be that the springs Of water are
so widely separated that hard travel
Is necessary to make the distance from
one to the other in a day.
When either Of these contingencies
arises they cook and eat while on the

three dinners such as American boys

something extra for Sundays and

When on the road bread is their chief
food. This Is baked while riding. One

T. j. DeaYitt.

One would hardly imagine that attorney
L. j. Deavitt was disbarred from practice
by the way one hundred old soldiers went
to his Office the other day to have their
vouchers executed for the July payment of
their pensions. They believe what Deavitt
has said concerning the administration of
pensions and that he has not over stated its
abuses. The venerable General Stephen
Thomas Is az outspoken against H. Clay
Evans, the commissioner OF pensions. as
Lawyer Deavitt has been, for which criti-
cism he has been disbarred from a valuable
practice. Sir" said the General, az be-
lieve we are confronted by demoralized
and an I'M American situation in the bureau
OF pensions. 1t is not enough for Mr..
Evans to assert that the charges made
against him come from disgruntled pension
attorneys, but what the people want to
know Is whether the charges are true. II
heis pursuing the same policy in executing
the pension laws, that all parties condemned
In President Cleveland, with whose admin
istration he compares bis own work, how
ever, much we may admire Comrade Nc
Kinley, the wrong, the thing itself must be
condemned still. How does his work com
pare with President Harrison's admins
tration?" asked the general. The report of
the commissioners OF pensions for 1892. the
last one under Harrison, shows the total
number OF pension certificates issued that
wear 81, 689 and the pension roll increased
100000. The present administration issues
about 81. 900 pension certificates a year with
more than 800 1000 applications waiting to be
considered, and new applications being
filed at the rate of 40 600 month, with a
force OF clerks and officers OF 1,74l. Gener,
al Thomas declared that with seventeen
efficient men he could himself, issue more
pension certificates than are now issued by
that entire force, who are described as ex-
soldiers and widows who are receiving PEN

WOOL AND THE TARIFF.

The Detroit Free Press" editorially
remarks that under the benefcent
price lifting influence of Dingleyism
the leading wool journal of America
finds the product selling at such a low
price as Ia warrant its expectation"
and that the utter breaking down of
Protection logic could not be more
forcibly demonstrated" AS is usual
with Free-Trade opponents, the Free
Press" draws its arguments from up-
warranted premises. The Free Press"
should go to the wool growers of our
own State for its Information as to
the present condition of the industry
Wool is double the price it was under
the Wilson law. Sheep in Michigan
are worth more than twice as much
per head as they We're five years ago.
After the enactment of the Wilson law
many OF Michigaa's choicest focks
were driven to the shambles. Now
farmers are holding on to their sheep
and focks are getting more numerous
and of greater size, and sheep raislngis
again one of the most profitable farm
industries. In view of these facts the
words of the Free Press" should be
paraphrased so as to read, 1.-The abso.
lutte correctness OF Protection logA
could not be more forcibly demon
strated." Now, as ever under Pro
tective policy, wool is poor article on
which to base Free-Trade sophistry.-
