THE PENSION BILL.

Some metropolitan newspapers
sharply antagonize what Is known as
mhe Sulloway pension bill which re-
Gently passed the house OF representa-
tives. The rate provided by the bill
is Sl5 a month at 81 years OF age; $40
a month at 65 years; s25 at ~ wears,
and $36 at Is years.
The only objection urged against
the bill is the calm that IL will add
&45,t90, 600 TO the pension apprOpria-
lpn bill. This it denied. IL should
be borne in mind that the older pen
sioners are dying much more rapidly
than few years ago the heaviest
mortality being between 60 and 70
years, and the mortality at present
averages $4,000 annually. In other
words every twelve months $4,000 vet
erans OF the civil war are mustered
out aud their names are wiped of the
pension roll This mortality is bound
TO increase as the years roll on.
Another result of the passage OF
this bill would be TO lessen the large
number OF special bills which are pas
sed 10y congress for the reason that
the physical condition OF the veterans
in whose interest such bills are push
ed through. is such that In common
Justice it Is demanded. 1t would also
reduce TO a minimum the large num-
ber of increases in pensions being ask
ed tor on the same score. There are
few men who served in the Civil war
who received an honorable discharge
who are not approaching or have pas
sed the three score landmark In the
journey OF life.
The SuIloway bill passed the house
by vote OF zl2 to 62, an indication
of the temper congress and OF general
public sentiment regarding the meas
u1e. Congress has always taken a
Apad view or volunteer pensions from
the time IL dealt with Lhe veterans OF
the revolution. including all from the
privates TO the officers who, in 1928,
were voted in the pay of captain dur
ing the remainder of life. The con-
currence Of the senate in the bill just
passed the house by good majority
Is not in doubt.

sometimes good temperance men
