Veterans Diving Fast.

More pensioners died during the
past year than fought on either
side at the famous battle of Shiloh
in 1862. This was the statement
made:in the house when the $780,.
100000 general pension bill was
up for passage.
twas shown that 45,768 names
had been stricken from the ma
tion's roll by death. OF this num-
Der, 81 POI were OWL war veterans
It was predicted that in nine years
OWL War veterans will be as
SCARCE az are Mexican war veterans
today.
The MoCumber sot, which puts
the soldiers on the pension roll 40
oording to age, without examina-
ton, increased the annual pension
roll over SIS. 100000.
In 1905 there were 1,O04 900 pen
sioners, the highest number ever
known, but the next year this
dwindled to 995, 900, and notwith-
standing the increase during the
last year on account of the Mo
Oumber bill, the number went
down to 967.371. This number is
now the smallest since 1898.
Oh! dear! but how the Repub-
loan did squeal over the result of
the late republican primary; must
have hurt them awful bad, or they
would not have put up suoh a
prolonged howl! Boys, you are
badly beaten; just might as we'll
lay down and rest. The ninny
squaw, or the Regulars" have
whipped you good-knooked you
completely out in the first round.
You are good fghters, but you
need lots of training, don't you
know! You might win some day,
but we doubt it very much, as the
REGULARS" are too strong for you.
You had better stop now and get
in the Regulars" band wagon.
