SPLENDID ENTERTAINMENT
AT THE OPERA HOUSE.

One Of the most enjoyable amateur
entertainments of the season was that
given at the Opera House last night
by the ladies of the Catholic church,
and a large audience was present to

OF CUSTER POST AND CITY AND
COUNTY BENEFITED BY RE-
CENT PENSION RULING.
Commissioner Ware Will Place SOL
diers Of Civil War on Same Foot
ing as Soldiers Of Mexican Wa
In Matter Of Service Pension for
Lapse Of Years-EHect Felt Here.

In the Geographic columns of The
Republican today will be found report
of a ruling just made by Pension Com.
missioner Ware regarding the pension.
ing of veterans, and which is expected
to affect perhaps a score of soldiers in
and around this city, some fourteen or
FIFTEEN Of whom are members of Custer
Post. Grand Army of the Republic.
Mr.. Wares ruling is that when a vet
eran of the civil war has reached the
age of sixty-two years and can show
service and honorable discharge, he
shall be entitled to Sc a month, the
pension increasing with added years,
so that when he shall have reached
the age of 20 years he will receive a
pension of $12 a month.
This ruling will place a number of
soldiers on the rolls who IRE not now
drawing pensions n will tend to in
crease the pension of those who are
now drawing small sums. Adjutant
Fitch of Custer post has estimated in
an off handed way that as many as
fifteen members of the post will re-
ceive new pensions or have their pres
ent rate increased and that a number
who are not members of the post will
be benefited. 5
All tho applicant will have to show
under the Ware ruling, according to
Mr.. Fitch. will be hat he has reached
the age Of SO years. that he served the
minimum period of time prescribed by
the pension department and hat he
was h%onorably discharged. These
claims will be filed and taken up as
rapidly as the pension bureau can do
it and it would not surprise the ad-
jutant that pensioners will be placed
on the roll within ninety days or four
months.
The commissioners ruling is on a
ruling made as to veterans OF the Mex.
lean wal who survived that event thir.
ty-five years. The civil war ended
thirty-nine years ago next month, plac.
ing the veterans OF that struggle on
the same footing as to expiration OF
time and a little better, with the Mex.
lean war veterans. The additions to
the rolls will be q considerable number,
but soldiers who have reached the age
of sixty-two years can be counted on
for a very few years more Of life. and
the amount paid for pensions will not
long be very great. The good to the
veterans will be in~calculable. and the
commissioner has earned the gratitude
of every old soldier by his ruling.

 The end. trolley car seats were rather damp yesterday and the middle seats were eagerly sought for. However, there were generally plenty of chances to get a middle seat. The few closed cars on the long runs were appreciated by both passengers and crews. The new jumbo cars were also appreciated, since by drawing the new curtains down they were made almost as tight as a closed car.
 Probably the only ones to appreciate the rains were those in the city having gardens and the farmers, since the long dry spell would soon have dam aged many of the crops, The present ! rain, however, will put them in good condition again. ..-

Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1904-06-17

The lead of 10, 900 for Mckinley in 1900
was by far the longest ever rolled up
in Oregon for any republican candidate
for any Office. Nobody at that time sup
posed that that figure would be touched
again, at least in the near future. 1t
is now reasonably certain that the re-
publican lead few months hence in
that state will be nearly twice as long.
1t will pass the 20, 900 line. at all events.
Every democrat in Oregon realizes this.
That state will not be placed in the
doubtful column by democratic arith-
inetic men any longer. SO far as regards
1904.
The signs OF an anti-republican up
rising are not particularly manifest in
the Oregon returns" They will not be
manifest in the returns from any other
state this year The democrats vii.
carry the solid south, except a few
states, like West Virginia and Della
ware. These are tolerably sure to be
republican. There IS probability that
Missouri also will be carried by the re-
publicans. In all the republican and
the doubtful states the republicans
will be victorious. 1t is now safe to pre-
diet that the republicans will carry the
four little western states which went to
Bryan i'm 19OO-Colorado. Montana,
Idaho and Nevada. These were the
only states outside Of the old slave
region which Bryan won four years
ago. The republicans will have them
this year Oregon has pointed the way
in which the country is to go. and has
outlined the emphasis in which it is to
move in that way. This is going to
be a glorious year for the republican
party
