STATE PENSIONS.

There is one powerful argument in
favor of The National Tribune Pension
Bill which has heretofore not received
attention. Ali over the country there
is a strong demand for State pensions
to meet the inadequacy of the present
pension system. In every State in the
Nortl. are great numbers Of veterans
and veterans widows who are unable
to live comfortably upon the pensions
they now receive. A number of States
like Massachusetts, Wisconsin and
Ohio yearly spend many millions Of
dollars in allowances to the veterans
and the widows in the States. So OBJ
vious has been the necessity Of reliev-
ing the many thousands Of these calls
strong efforts to pass State pension
bills in various States. These were
actually passed in New York and Penn
sylvania, but vetoed by their Governors.
The objections to State pension bills
are very powerful The first and logi-
cal one is that the soldiers did not fight
for the State but for. the whole United
States, and that the whole Nation
should bear the burden Of caring for
them and their widows in their old
age and decrepitude. Then come still
more practical ones. If, for example,
Pennsylvania is going to make an al
lowance to those who responded to the
States call and splendidly supported
her credit in the great war, the pen
sions should be given to every man
and to the widow of every man who
served honorably in Pennsylvania reg
iment, no matter where he or she may
now reside. This would make Pennsyl-
vania pay pensions to her vet
Grams all over the United States. Next.
if Pennsylvania is going to pension vet
Grams there would be q manifest in
justice in refusing pensions to those
who served in regiments from other
States but who since the war have been
living in the State, paying taxes and
helping bear the burdens of the State,
where Pennsylvania veterans who have
removed to other States have been sim
ilarly helping bear the burdens of tax
alton in those States. These objections
seem insuperabie to many who have
thought upon the subject. If all of
The National tribune., 1910-01-06

the loyal States should pass these PEN
sion bills on this basis many veterans
would be in receipt Of double pensions.
and inextricable confusion and injus-
tice would follow, with those living in
the Northern States having an unde-
served preference over those who have
made their homes in the Southern
States, which will not pass suoh bills.
The simplest solution Of this problem
is for the United States Government to
lift all this burden from the various
States by making its pensions adequate.
If today the several loyal States find
the National pension system inadequate
and they are so strongly Of this opinion
as to spend millions of dollars in spe-
cial local relief to veterans and widows,
it makes an unanswerable argument
for The National Tribune Bill, which
will shift this burden from the State
to the National Treasury. Not only
should this burden be shifted because
of justice to the States, but 1t should
be still more because of equal rights
to equally deserving veterans. The
veterans outside the great loyal states
Of the North deserve absolutely as
much as those who reside in them, and
1t is not fair for the veterans or their
widows who happen to be living in
Kentucky or Tennessee that they should
not have as good care as those who are
dwelling where the communities have a
higher consideration and more liberal
spirit toward the men who saved the
Union. 1t must result that the States
which are liberal will suffer on account
Of the influx of veterans and their de-
pendent ones from States which make
no provision for the Union veterans.
All these are powerful reasons, from
legal and other standpoints why The
National Tribune Bill should pass and
make the pension system more just by
extending its benefits to all without
regard to their present abiding place.

The Life of Lincoln, by John McEI-

chapter, and after that the same au-
thor will begin a history of the great
campaign of the Army of the Potomac
from the Rapidan to Appomattox. This,
like the previous histories by this au-

momentous struggle than has ever yet
appeared in print in connected form.
Every effort will be made for historical
accuracy and to give all the regiments
and organizations which participated in
the awful battling of the year 1864 full
credit for their share in achieving the
glorious result. The real history of
those months of Titanic struggle has
not yet been written and abounds with
much difficulty. but the author will use
his utmost efforts to make it clearer
and fuller than anything that has yet

Some time ago Mr.. Goode. an Eng
lishman of education, offered to sell
himself for year for $1,000. A Lon
don paper bought him for six months,
and offered to rent him a day at time
to its subscribers. The offer was ac-
cepted with such readiness that Mr..
Goodies time has been fully occupied.
He has been requisitioned to amuse
guests at evening parties; he spent one
day in efforts to reconcile a husband
and wife-this proved one of his few
failures; pork butcher obtained him
to kill 10 pigs for the Christmas mar
ket; a barber employed him to lather
his customers faces; men of various
incomes up to $4,000 a year sought his
services to find them wives; hundreds
of readers have tried to borrow him for
the last week of the old and the first
of the new year. but he finds it impos-
sible to eat from three to six dinners a
day. His immediate engagements in
clude giving advice on the production
of Christmas pantomime, teaching a
woman roller skating, taking a friend
less Dutch woman to a restaurant din

occupy his mind, finding p nat for a

The pendulum is swinging a little in
DR.. Cooks favor. Last week it seemed
as If he was condemned as the greatest
impostor that the world has ever
known, and it was proposed to send the
records which he had sent to Copen-
hagen to the Bureau of Criminal Rec
ords. He was formally expelled from
the Arctic Club, and his disappearance
from public view put him in the atti-
tude of fugitive from justice. Now
his friends are having some innings.
Walter Lonsdale, his secretary. says
that the Doctor is in serious candi-
ton in a remote corner of Europe,
which is not revealed, and Is under
treatment by Vienna specialists for
nervous breakdown. He is under the
delusion that he is being hunted down
by spies. 1t is denied that his wife
has left him, and affirmed that she is at
his bedside nursing him. The verdict
of the Copenhagen authorities has been
withheld from him on account of his
condition. His friends persist that he
will be able to prove that he reached
the North Pole. and they threaten hts
detractors with suits for heavy dam
ages.
