House BillS-Third Reading.

To appropriate 100000 per annum
for next two years for pensions for
Confederate soldiers and to authorize
the board of pension examiners to sit
fifteen days at the quarterly meetings
instead of only ten days. The bill was
unanimously recommended by the pen
sion and finance ways and means COM
mittee.
Mr.. Meadows addressed the house in
support of the bill, saying that it con-
formed to the recommendations of
Cows. Cox and Patterson. The bill, he
said, also met with the hearty approval
of all the camps and bivouacs of the
Confederate soldiers. He said that
with the additional work imposed upon
the pension board it would be necessa'
ry to allow the board to sit additional
time and he therefore urged the pas
sage of the bill as reported. The bill
passed by unanimous vote.

Pension Increase.

The senate committee on pensions
this morning voted unanimously to re-
commend for passage the bill of Sena-
tor Cox increasing the appropriation
for old Confederate soldiers from $3.50
600 per annum to $780, per annum
and the Weber bill increasing that for
widows from $4,000 to $50, 900 per
year. A bill by Senator Bean allowing
pensions to widows of soldiers who
married "prior to 1857 instead of "pri-
or to 1870" was also recommended for
passage, with q provision that those
married between 1870 and 1875 shall be
third class pensioners and be paid il
there is any money left after paying
first aud second class pensioners.
1t is desired that the bills be passed
at once, so that the pension board, now
in session, can act in accordance with
what the general assembly appropri-
ates. Nashville Banne.

ground of good work done in secur-
ing two-eent railroad fare. It is a
fact that the convention that nom
mated Senator Ashburn OF Holley's
county was one OF the frst to declare
for that important measure and that
he as chaiynsan OF the committee on
railroads did far more than Holley.
to secure the passage of such law.
II the kilograms recollection serves
It correctly this fasorite OF the State
Journal, Mr.. Holley, bucked almsst
out of the traces at critical moment
in the deliberations on what is now
the two-cent fare law. In view of
this why not give the credit to Ash
burn instead of Holley? The Tele-
gram thinks this is justly due to Sem
ator Ashburn and deprecates any
step undertaken to steal laurels
from him and give them to HolIey,
though it admires Mr.. Holley's stand
for straight two-cent fare.

II is a gratifying fact that there
has not been any dynamiting of FISH
this season in Harrison county, and
az the result the rivers and creeks
are full Of fish OF excellent size and
quality. In former years fish were
Dutrageously slaughtered by the,
wholesale by ass of dynamite and
the stock of fish was jeopardtzed.
inst what has brought about the
change has not been fully determin-
ed. It is a fact that a number OF
deputy game wardens have been ap-
pointed. 1t is also fact that the
circuit court has no patience with
the wholesale destruction OF FISH.
And it is also a fact that the law Is
quite strict. These may have de-
TERED men from dynamiting fish. at
least they ought to have deferred
them. But may the Telegram not
be optimistic enough to believe that
the genuine sporting spirit has
possessed our people in this respect
the same as it ought to have seized
them years ago? Possibly, the
streams have not been polluted as
heretofore and this has increased
the stock. At any rate conditions
are improved and 1t should be the
pride of all to keep them that way,

The watering trough system was
tried once in clarksburg and prov
ed to be so obnoxious that a general
howl against it finally resulted in its
adjustment. Unless a better sys-
tenn, and better troughs, or water
ing places, can be had. it would be
better not to establish another in
the city. The city health officer
makes merely general recommen-
dalton on the subject. He should
go farther by informing the council
what kind of troughs would be sat
isfactory. The city does not want
any more cess pools and troughs
filled with stagnant water. Nor
does it want its streets and pave
ments in winter time glare of ice
because of leakage or overfows from
the watering troughs. With prop
err kind OF troughs such a system
would doubtless be all right, but
the kind should be determined upon
before any action is taken to estab-
lish such a system. The health Of
Rcer might give the council some
enlightenment on this part of the
subject.

Chief of Police Scott did great
service when he ended the chain Of
robberies Friday night shooting twice

that he could not get at them right.
Had he, there would have been two
dead bodies at the morgue. He
traced them as far as he could and
did not Immediately retire as one
source states, the statement being
made maliciously for the purpose Of
injury to him. Saturday a hard
and systematic effort from early
morning and almost throughout the
day was made to run the burglars
down. This is certainly commendable
on the part of the police and 1t is
highly unjust to even intimate that
they did not want to catch the burg
lars. There is every reason to be
lieve that those who are so indus
triously engaged in criticizing the
police are the real ones who do not
want the burglars apprenended. They
profess to know who they are but
fail to disclose their Identity. Thus
1t is up to them to put up or shut M.
