Referring to the policy" of pensioning ''war widows" meaning women who mar ried Federal soldiers long after the Civil War ended, The Chattanooga Times re- marks:
 The country has pensioned them from l7s9 to this day. The policy is as old as the government, a tritie older than the governA4ent under the constitution. would 1t or not, look like meanness to cut off war widows now for any reason, after paying them bounty for H. ears? Me are not defending the policy in either instance, only stating historical facts and explaining a difficulty that con fronts Congress touching this question.
 The fact that the few widows of Revo- lutionary soldiers have been pensioned oy the government should not be set up as a precedent for loading the taxpayers with pensions to the thousands of widows who are neither dependent nor needy. In many cases these marriages were com tracted quarter of century or more after the close of the war, when the man was on the pension list and the woman married him for no other reason than that she would continue to draw the pen sion after his death Our argument in the first place was intended to show the

SOME QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

The Advertiser is In receipt or the Iol- lowing letter:
 Editor The Advertiser:
 .'U'' have always beer so ready to assist the "unlnformed" which you may think is a synonym of the lazy" and ft is so convenient and pleasant to an old man to have some one to do his research and thinking for him, that am emoolden- ed to further tax your patience and con sideration, especially as there IS, so to sneak. an 'interregnum' at this time of exciting and interesting events. It being an off year politically your space ana time may not be much trespassed upon. E Ia1Eish you to define and give the diff ferential diagnosis" between the follow ing terms or isms.
 Socialism, Communism, Agrarianism, Anarchism. etc. l wish not simply the dictionary definition. but the tenets and nice shades of difference in each doctrine We see in these modern days the above terms so frequently used, and in so many ways that the reader, unless well post ed. and fully up to date in his knowledge may not thoroughly understood the mat fer at issue. We see in the German Reicl stag, the terms Socialist, Agra rianist. etc, used frequently and we d, not fully comprehend the meaning or tht doctrines of the different parties.
 p, Would it be wrong to conclude that al these terms and isms are germane, anC that all tend to the same thing, that is Agrarlanism to Socialism and Socialism to Communism and Communism finally to Anarchism. Should not each one b. watched and smothered in its incipiency as a common. yet dangerous enemy t. good order good morals and good govern ment.

southerners Should Vote.

New Orleans Picayune.
 The Picayune has heretofore remarked on the apathy and indifference of the Southern people as to their political du- ties. Their failure to express their will in popular elections subjects them to the risk of getting bad men into office, and 1t is exciting much injurious remark at a time when such criticism is calculated to arouse prejudice and stimulate action in Congress against the tepre of our States in that body. The D ople of these States should awak to the dam gers of their situation and show by their attendance in full force at the polls that the claim that the greatest part of their voting population is cut off from the bal lot is false and slanderous in the ex- treme.

 Booker Washington and the color line got crossed in a Massachusetts town day or SO ago and there is much talk.

Probably hundreds Of thousands have

tainly, If his viii was done in the
founding of the great republic, it is
most unkind to accuse him Of having
anything 10 do with the assassination
of one of its best presidents.
But the same thing was said in the
case of Lincoln and later of Garfield
it was the will of God. / do not think
so. Lincoln fell the victim of drunken
local hate. Garfield died by the act of
an insane semi-idiot. Mckinley fell
before the sneaking treachery of Eu-
ropean anarchy. Not one Of these
murderers did Gods wilk because the

In all three instances, it is my opin-
