A Mccoy. Tate, w. Va, who is 20
years of age. and has been a subscriber
of The National Tribune for 80 years,
is a thoro believer in the paper. and is
for John McIclroy for COMMANDMENT
Chief. He believes that The National
Tribune pension bill is the best ever.
He thinks that the statues of Lee, JEFF
ferSCn Davis and Wirz should be in the
Hall of Horrors. and when Congress is
in session the Confederate flag should
be hoisted over the Capitol as an en-
blem that we hold no enmity against
the veterans of the Confederacy. all of
which may, be said to be remarked by
Comrade Mccoy in sarcastic humor. To
add to this sarcastic vein. COmrade
Mccoy says that Congress ought to do
something for Itself, as its members
are only getting $50 a day, and that is
very small, ne thinks. taking into con-
sideration the hardships they endure.
Now we old veterans get so cents a
day. Just think of that How extrava-
CANT Congress is, Uncle Sam paid us
S13 a month for four years, and we had
jolly good time all the while, and if
we hadn't been so extravagant we could
now be taking it easy instead of digging
in the garden" Comrade Mccoy thinks
that it is shameful the way Congress is
treating this man Peary. the Govern
ment pet. by not giving him an Ad-

TOWnscnd-Waraer Bill.

Editor National Tribune: If you will
allow me space in The National Tribune
will give some reasons why the Town
send-Warner bill should become law
at this session Of Congress. Practically
every comrade acknowledges the pen
sion laws have been reasonably liberal.
and that both political parties have
been loyal 10 the men who saved the
country, yet they look to the Repuhli-
can Party as specially friendly to pen
sion legislation, and If the party now in
power expects to maintain that favor
this is a prOpitious time to show it, as
the outlook seems little ominous, but
that may be due to Halley's comet. The
first reason why the bill should become
q law is on account of the tail end of
the bill. which would place all disabled
and helpless comrades who are under
the law of 1890. who, altho bedfast on
account of paralysis, cancer. Bright's
disease, blind or permanently disabled
and unable to leave the house. if under
the age of 40 cannot receive more than
$I2 per month. There are quite large
number OF this class. / know four in
my own County.
Second. That bill if enacted into law
would do away with the special bills
for relief of soldiers who perhaps are
not as much entitled to special favor as
the class cited above.
Third. What legislation is done in fu-
ture with reference to placing the ex-
officers of the war on the retired list
should be done at this session. / doubt
if there are more than 5000 officers
now living The company of which L
was a member had four Captains and
six Lieutenants during the three and a
half years of the war. Everyone of
these is dead, except one. Everyone of
the regimental officers is dead, perhaps
with one exception, who was alive three
years ago and who was then near so
and very feeble. / have been one of
the Examining Surgeons of my County
nearly ~ years We have examined
541 applicants. seven of whom were

Counties in the country we would have
