MORE PENSION OUTLAY.

A few days before the adjournment
OF Congress the House of Representa-
tives amended a Senate bill increasing
pensions to those disabled by loss o1
limb. The increases had been ap-
proved by the bureau OF pensions. we
believe, before Commissioner Evans
was promoted out of the Office he
had filled so faithfully. The number
OF cases to which such increase NAV
be applicable must be small, and the
highest rating allowed by the new law
Is less than the $72 paid for extreme
disability under general laws. The
mischief, is appears to us. is in the
adoption of further amendment by
which the consent Of Congress is given
to abandon the limitation of the act of
1890, known as the dependent pen
sion law" and to attempt to do under
that later statute what it has hereto
fore been possible to do only under
general laws"
When the dependent pension" law
was adopted it was largely to meet
the needs of applicants who could not
prove title to pensions under the older
but othewise more liberal laws. Most
OF those veterans who sought pensions
under the terms of the act of 1890 were
probably just within the requirement
that applicants must have had ninety
days service. Possession Of a certifi-
cate to draw money from the treasury
was made comparatively easy by the
acceptation of present disability as a
qualification, without demanding proof
that the disability was of service
origin. About the only restraint upon
the applicant was the requirement 10
establish that his disability was not
attributable to his vicious habits. I'm
der the old law the minimum rate to be
allowed was Sc; the maximum was 20
be $12. These rates have prevailed
until now, although many efforts to 90
beyond the maximum rate have heen
resisted by the bureau of pensions.
The added language giving pension
ers under the act of 1890 when tbev
require frequent and PERIODICAL aid "
from $12 to $50 per month. looks

A Matter of Principle,

"Why is it," says the girl. that in
giving an account of an accident they
always give the age of the person III
jured? can see the sense of their
talking about blonds and brunettes, a
mustache or full beard IL it is a man
or red, green or blue gown If 1t is II
woman, for that is means of identifi-
cation for acquaintances and friends
who may be interested. They don't
even put the age In the death notices
now, but If you meet with an accident

strangely like an attempt to get ap-
pruximately the benefits of the general
law for subjects that may not possess
the qualifications demanded of an ap-
plicant under the old laws. There was
no insuperable difficulty under the old
law to be overcome by the veteran who
could prove his right by honest service,
by wounds, illness or any disability
attributable to life in the army to the
highest pension which is paid 10 those
unable to help themselves. But these
high pensions go to men about whose
actual service in the field there is ne 1t
TO no doubt whatever. The later rates
were offered as a sort OF substitute for
service pensions. and evidently to head

There are about $4,000 pensions
under the law of 1890. OF the whole,
about 10000 are receiving the max
imum rate OF $l2 a month, and there
are more than 100000 persons already
pensioned under this law who have
applied for increase of their pensions.

to the bureau of pensions to advance
the maximum rate to $50 is liable to
abuse. We do not say that the oppor
tunty will be abused at the expense
of the taxpayer. Ii the attitude of the
administration toward the pension bu
reau had been recently more courage
ous, we should have asserted confident
ly that this new provision would not
have been easily abused. AS it is. with

sharks, and a new one put in from the

waging the vicious fight against Mr..
Evans, and with the pension attorneys
and professional comrades" to be
considered first We may be pardoned
for regarding this liberal provision with
distrust. and to await with concern the
Interpretation of it by the new head Of
the pension bureau.
