As an instance of how the pens
sion system Of the government is
being abused, The Philadelphia
Times calls attention to the fact
that "a single Massachusetts rcul-
ment that never was under fire,
that spent but short time at San
tiagO after the surrender of the
Spanish army, has to~day $50 ap
p'lcatIOns filed for pensions, OF
more than half of the entire num-
ber. This has been done chiefly
or wholly by the pension sharks
getting access to the oils of the
regim ents'and personally appeal
ing to every soldier to make ap-
plication for pension. " The
Times wants tho pension sharks
kicked out, and warns "the pen-
sion veterans of our civil war and
the soldiers of our war with Spain
and the FiIipinos'' that unless this
is done, "our pension system
must provoke revolution. The
Times is not the only Northern
paper that has been driven to
openly protest against the grow
ing frauds in the pension system.
In the effort to bring about a re-
form, the Southern papers have
had their inning. The Northern
papers now having taken up the
work, we shall watch for the re
suit hopefully, but yet with many
misgivings. Charlotte Observer.

THE HOUSE is
RUSHING WORK.

Washington, May 25--The House has
been rushing business In the effort to
have an early adjournment BY the
end Of the week It IL expected that all
appropriation bills win have passed the
lower house, which leaves the decks
clear for the consideration OF urgent
business and of the conference reports
on bills that have ALREADY been passed
The House always has 10 wait for the
Senate on the appropriation bills owing
TO the fact that the unlimited debate In
the Senate allows that body 70 take
much more time for the consideration
Of all measures than is allowed in the
House. There are some measures Of
importance which the House may take
up at this session, including the bin for
the Louisiana purchase celebration.
That measure Is still incubating In COM
mittee and with a decided tendency In
favor Of reporting It with the $1,000
600 appropriation. OF course, II the
House takes favorable action upon IL.
the friends OF the bill in the Senate
will make every effort to get It through,
and the impression prevails that Il will
pass the Senate with but a very little
discussion. With the naval bill out Of
the way in the Senate there Is really no
reason why there should be any ex-
tended debate on any Of the other
pending measures, although the pneu-
