Establish u Homo for tho Soldlors

Editor Herald and Ncws:-I SEQ an
editorial in your issue OF the Bird inst.
In favor Of homo for the Confederate
soldiers. The home should be estab-
Jishcd at theme session Of the legis-
laturc. There sare now two Confcder-
ate soldiers in.the. county home Of this
county. One of those will get pen
sion that will help him some. Tho
other could not.get living witness to
sign his application on account Of the
rigidity OF the law. do not think the
law too rigid In reference to tho amount
OF property owned by the applicant, but
do think, where n man was known to
be in the Confederate army and has
nothing to live on he should be given q
pension. Those who own no property
aud arc not able to work could be nut
In Confederate home and taken care
Of. The State Of South Carolina can
never pay the old soldiers for what
they did for tho State. How rapidly
the soldier boys are passing way. 1t
will not be long until the last roll call
will be answered. These soldiers stood
fur years with their faces to tho foo
not only fighting the North, but tho
hirelings Of the world. When over.
powered by numbers, came back to
broken up homes and desolate firesides
and took up the burden of life as no
soldiers of the world has ever done bo.
fore. 1t is true that there are n lot of
positions the old soldiers could fill, but
the fiat has gone forth. Old soldiers to
the rear.
SO let the State establish home for
the old soldier. 1t will not cost a great
deal OF money and can be sold and the
purchase money be put back in the
treasury before many years.

Government has arranged to

Islands it is pertinent TO ask what

know that no executive officer Of

the authority to add territory to
the national domain. M such
purchase can be made except by
treaty, and treaties must be rati-
fad by the United States Senate.
The terms Of the treaty cannon
be carried out and no money can
pass unless the bill be approved
by the House of Representatives
as we'll as the Senate. Neverthe-
less the executive departments of
the government in the past have
brought Congress Up to a point
where the annexation Of territory
seemed to ne inevitable, when we
take into account the known dis
position to spread the nations
