WIDOWS PENSIONS.

The failure to include widows in the
General Service pension bill is so no
ticeable by the people as to give great
hopes for the early passage of another
pension bill, which will include that
most deserving class. Everywhere
there is manifest a feeling that the
widows should receive as much con-
sidcration as the veterans, and it will
be the object of The National Tribune
to stimulate this feeling until it be.
comes controlling sentiment and Sc
cures the passage of bill which will
gi;e $12 month to every widow OF
veteran. There can be no question of
the veteran himself had not been brok-
EN- down by his service. he would have
been able to make proper provision for
his widow. That he did not gives this
woman legitimate claim upon the
Government, and she has still another

band for his services. 1t is part prob

Every veteran would rather have less

more for his widow after his death
This feeling is universal among the
veterans, and the reasons for a wild
ows' pension are so manifest and SO
powerful that We feel the passage of
such a measure of justice cannot be
long delayed. The National Tribune is
gong to takeoup the fight with all the
energy that it can command. and with
the hope that>at the next session of
Congress We shall see the grand work
done by the iMcCumber bill properly
supplemented by similar provisions for
the Widows.

has heen laboring for many years. This
bill appropriated $4,000 for q pedes-
tai, and gives authority to the Secre-
tary of War to designate suitable site
upon which to erect the monument.
The Committee has now in hand some
$25,600, and contemplates. with the aid
of the sum voted for the pedestal, TO
erect a monument not only to Dr.
stephenson, but also to the Grand Army
of the Republic, which will be a fitting
testimonial to generations to come of
the glorious Order which me founded
and of the private soldiers who fought
the war thru to brilliant success The
project was inaugurated by Comrads
Charles A. Partridge, Assistant Adju-
tant-General of Illinois, who is the
Chairman of the Committee and there
has been great deal of good work
done in pushing the enterprise for
Wy ,fch '" as
ner, of Philadelphia, who has been the
Treasurer of the Committee and very
successful in securing contributions.
AT meeting of the Committee more
than year ago, the matter of securing
the desired legislation, selecting the site
and beginning the work of it's erection
was entrusted to subcommittee con-
-,
Thomas S. Hopkins and John McElroy.
1t is proposed to immediately invite de-
signs and begin the work. so as to have
the monument ready for dedication at
the earliest possible date.

JAPAN IN MANCHURIa.

The course of Japan in Manchuria 10
a fine illustration of that Nations NOR
ais and sincerity. When Japan declared
war against Russia it was with the
ayowal Of securing Justice 10 outraged
China and of yindicating the honor Of
treaties. She claimed that Russia had
been guilty of gross bad faith in oecu-
pying Manchuria, and complained loud
ly of downright injustice in the seizure
Of the coal lands and other properties
which IN many instances amounted to
actual robbery of the real owners jap
an is now making every move to con-
vert Manchuria into a permanent part
of the Japanese Empire. The Russian
claims to the coal lands. which she
once condemned SO vigorously as open
robbery. she now regards as singularly
good and valid, since she has inherited
them from Russia. Every Russian
claim for anything worth while in Man.
churia has been transferred by japan
to herself and extended and strength
ened.
Japan and Russia seem to be occupy
ing respectively the portions of Man.
churia their armies held at the conclu-
sion of the war, and the general belief
is that they will continue to so occupy
the country, with China submitting to
her fate because there is nothing else
for her to do.

THE PHlLAbELpHIA ELECTION.

The National Tribune has another
feather in its cap in the election of
John e. .Reyburn as Mayor of Phila-
delphia by, the pleasing majority of
4S,0G0. The National Tribune support
ed Mr.. Reyburn, whose course during
his long service in Congress has shown
him to be admirably fitted for the Chief
Executive Of a city which has more
wealth and population than several
States of the Union. Mr.. Reyburn's
election by that majority after all the
tumuit and fever of reform and revolt
against the regular Republican organ
ization is peculiarly gratifying. I'm
doubtedly the old organization was full
of faults and deserved the chastisement
which it received at the hands Of the
people, but the new element that came
in did not commend itself at all, and
the people turned gladly from 1t to
such safe and sane leadership as was
offered by Mt. Reyburn's candidacy.

been wounded several times. but had
never before asked for pension.
Senator Bulkeley recalled the fact
that pension had been given the wild

that she had 100000.
Senator Mallory said that he had not
the slightest objection to giving a prop
er pension to every Union soldier, and
had never voted against one since he
had been in the Senate. but he would
support the position of the Chairman.
Senator Taliaferro said that he was
Confederate soldier and would op.
pose the bill, not out of hostility to Gen
Eawley or to any veteran Of the Fed

a considerable income which was suifi-

THE KEsIGNATIoN OF SENATOR
~ arSPOONER.

The past week did not lack its usual
quota of surprises. but the greatest of
all and the one which brought the most
regret to theowidest circle was that OF
the resignation of Senator John C.
Spooner. of WISCONSIN No one seems
to have k!iowri of his intention except
Vice President Fairbanks. and the pub
| lication of his letter To the Governor of
his State startled everyone. There was
an Immediate. and generous pressure
/ from his friends in the Senate, which
practically includes every Senator, to
| have him recall his letter. but he was
! inexorabie. and the reason he gave for
it in his letter and in conversations
with those who tried to dissuade him
WAS unanswerabie. He said that he
had devoted 16 years of his life to the
service of his State and the United
States, at a saIary which did not meet
his ordinary living expenses. He had
relinqIished a lucrative practice at the
bar TO become Senator, and had. de-
voted himself unremittingly to his pup
lie duties to the entire sacrifice OF his
practice and other means of making
money. He is now 64 years Of age, ard
feels that il is necessary for him to do
ething to make IL provision for his
declining years The resignation ill
talk" effect May J. AS the Wisconsin
Legislature is now in session, an on
portunity will be given to elect hi; sue
ccsf1r.
Senator Spooner was born at Law
renceburg, Ind. Jan. s. 1913. and was
taken by his father to Wisconsin i'll
1859. He graduated from the STATE
University in 1864; was private in the
10th Wis, and then Captain Of Co. A,
50th Wis, receiving a brevet of Major
at the close Of his service He was
Secretary to Governor Lucius Fair
child; admitted to the bar in 1867, and.
after holding various offices, was elected
to the United States Senate in 1885 to
succeed Senator Cameron. At the
close of his term he was succeeded by
William +. Villas; was unanimously
hciiihdteu ny INC hepupilcdt CAUCUS
for another term and elected Jan. 81.
1897. He announced himself unaltera-
bly, opposed 70 receiving reelection.
but in spite of this he was reelected
in 1908, receiving every Republican
vote in both Houses. His term would
have expired March 3, 1909 Senator
Spooner has won high reputation in
the Senate as one Of the ablest lawyers
He is prompt and fearless debater.
keen logician. EhoroIy familiar with the
rules of the body and public business,
and is formidable as an antagonist and
dent has regarded him very highly. as
did President Mckinley before him,
who offered him place in the Cabinet,
which he declined. There is some talk
about his sbbeing appointed to the Su-
preme Rench. but this does not obtain
wide credence.. 1t is said that he pro-
poses to go to New York and enter upon
the practice of law there. When aues-
toned, Senator spooner said that he
would still, retain his home in Madison,
but wouldo practice law in any court in
which he had cases The retirement of
Senator Spooner is of much interest to
Union veterans, as he is one of the
rapidly decreasing number of Union
soldiers in the Senate of the United
States.
