Senator Scott of West Virginia is the
leading champion of legislation to pension
the civil war nurses. The pension COM
mittee of the senate is now making an in
duiTy to ascertain as nearly as possible
how many persons would benefit under
such legislation. There has been pending
in congress for a long time a bill to PEN
sion telegraph operators who served at the
front during the war. The hackers of this
bill assert that If the nurses are to be
pensioned there is no reason Why the gov
eminent should deny the telegraph oper-
ators the same treatment, Congress seems
to be convinced that the country will at
any time sanction almost any measures OF
relief for the men who fought for the
union. The fact that the pension appro-
prlat!on bill Of this s~ession-the bill APP
propriating the money for the fiscal year
beginning the first OF next July-shows a
smart reduction as compared with the last
few years is being used as an argument in
favor Of the three bills that are now pend
ing. For instance, the dollar-a-day advo-
Gates are saying that with the civil war
army rapidly passing away there is no
valid excuse for denying those who SIN
survive the relief that would be afforded
by paying every man who performed hon
orable service in the wal a dollar a day.

This one bill, providing for a volunteer
retired list, would increase the pension
expenditures OF the government $6,O0O,OO0
or S7,000,OOO annually. The bill provides
for placing on the volunteer retired list, d"
with retired pay, the commissioned offl-
GERS who served with the volunteer army
of the north during the civil war. IL such
a law should be enacted. the pensions
these volunteer officers now draw
would, Of course, be dropped. The retired
pay which an officer of the regular army
now receives would take their place. Elk
cept in rare instances. the retired pay
would be greatly in excess OF the pension
now received. The fact that the pay in
almost every instance would be greater
than the pension brings to the proposed
legislation the support of practically all
the volunteer officers. The legislation also
has the support OF many of the "'vil war
privates, but some OF them arc = cidedly
opposed to 1t. The committees o. the two
houses which have the bill under considera-
ton are largely made up OF men who
served their country as private soldiers,
and this fact no doubt accounts In part
for the opposition the bill meets in these
committees.

Tn dollar a day pension movement is
gaining Roadway. There seems to be small
prospect Of the legislation being enacted at
this session, but the general trend of
opinion about congress is that it is COM
ms, and probably within the next two or
three years. When the widows pension
bill, which provides a payment for every
woman whose husband saw at least three
months service in the civil war, was
passed. and a little later the service pen
sion bill, the general understanding was
that there would be no additional pension
legislation for years to come. The Widows
bill increased the pension expenses the first
year about S12, 10000 o and the service PEN
sion bill added nearly $40, OOO,O 600 to the gov
ernment's fixed charges. Those two laws
had not been in operation many months
before congress began to feel the pressure
for additional legislation. Some Of the
democratic members OF the house are
among the most aggressive dollar-a-day
advocates.

The senate committee on military affairs,
under the direction of Senator Warren of
Wyoming, is trying to get together az
curate data showing the number of volun-
teer officers now living who would benefit
under the proposed legislation. There is
in existence an organization Of volunteer
officers that is doing all 1t can to promote
the bill. The last data submitted to con-
gress by hat organization showed that
there are now living 6.S67 men who held
commissions in the volunteer army of the
north. According to the classification sup
piled by this organization the volunteer
officers who would benefit are in number
and in rank these: Major generals, q;
brlgadier generals. q; colonies, Isl; lieu
tenants. 1876; majors, 800. captains. 1858;
first l~ieutenants, 1883; second lleutenants.
/ ,666; various ranks, navy, $50. Members
of the committees Of congress who have
made calculations based on the above
classification say that 1t would cost the
government not less than S7,OOO,0O to give
these officers their retired pay for one
year. OF course to get at the net cost TO
the government, the amount Of the pen
slons the volunteer officers now receive
must be deducted from~4he sum the gov
eminent would have to pay under the vol
unteer retirement act. The data before
the senate committee on military affairs
estimate the amount of pensions now re-
ceived by volunteer Officers at ST. 4g. S5.
III these figures be correct the net cost to
the government under the volunteer re-
tirement act would be $5,65l, 80.

The pension claim agent will not cease
from troubling until the last civil war
veteran is at rest. Those who thought
tina the service pension bill. passed two
years ago, represented the limit OF national
generosity are welcome to do some more
thinking over pending pension moves, three
OF a kind, detailed by the Washington cor
respondent Of the Boston Transcript, as
follows;
Potent Influences are afoot to bring to
the veterans Of the civil war, their widows
and children, the benefits which the NEST
extreme liberality Of a generous govern
ment can be induced to confer. Expansion
of the pension rolls is again an Issue with
congress and three bills to that end are
under consideration. TIL first creates a
volunteer retired list, the second would
place on the pension at a dollar a day all
honorably discharged soldiers of the civil
or the Mexican war and the third would
make eligible to go on the rolls at the
rate now paid to soldiers widows all
women who served as nurses during the
civil war.
Neither the house committee on invalid
pensions nor the senate committee on mill
tary affairs is disposed to favor the vol
unteer retired list, yet the growing de-
mand for the passage of the bill is causing
a special interest TO be taken in the cam
paigu Of the veterans.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
it's miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of it by a

ment discovered by DR.. Blosser, who
for over 50 years, has been treating
catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.

or inhaler, but is a more direct aud
thorough treatment than any of these.
1t cleans out the head, nose, throat
and lungs so that you can again
breathe freely and sleep without that
stopped-up feeling that all catarrh
sufferers have. 1t heals the diseased
mucous membranes and arrests the
foul discharge, so That you will not
be constantly blowing your nose and
splitting, and at the same time it does
not poison the system and ruin the
stomach, as internal medicines do.

without cost, send your address TO
DR. ]. w. Blosser, 81 Walton Street

by return mail enough of the medicine

this mercy quality in their hearts. As the
sinner attempts to conform his life to the per

Gods law and obliged to come for mercy 10

can have that mercy only upon condition that
he will exercise similar mercy toward those
