No Kick, No Pay.

On general principles we are opposed
to raids on the public crib, for it is the
taxpayer who must replenish the crib,
Certain southern union men are, how
ever, are not fairly treated in the crib
matter. The fact that southern state
governments kept no record of union
soldiers keeps many II union soldier
ont of pension, who, according to the
rule operative in those states which did
keep a record, would have one, Thus n
discrimination is made against the
southern union soldier aud those who
would indirectly benefit by his having
n pension.
Another class Of union men in the
south, or who were within the fire zone
during the war, who are not fairly treat
ed as regards the same class in the
north and west outside that zone, is
those who hold claims against the gov
ernment for grain, stock or property
used by union forces during the war.
One favorite mode of keeping these
people out of their money is to show
by the confederate archives that they
sold stuns to the confederutes and
signed vouchers to get their pay. This
is taken as evidence chat the man was
disloyal, and the evidence can't he over
come by such general proofs OF his 10y

"sefugeed' to Kentucky and remained
within the union lines until the close OF

proof that these things were Empress

to do at this late hour, especially il
the man himself is also dead. Even q
man who was standing by at the time
would have to swear on general prin-
ciples that these things were impressed,

Does it Pay to Buy Cheap?

to proofs of property taken or service

best Judges as to n mans honesty, and
if Il man is or was honest the presump-
tion is that he did not make out dis

if those who are denied their money be-
cause their lanes are in the confeder-

MED pensions because their names are
not in any state record, should say,

be the only way to do it now in many

see things moving that way. Wewould
never have had the Porto Rican tariff
