Pensions of the Civil War

In few days the surviving
veterans of the Civil War will again
observe the beautiful annual custom
of decorating with flowers the graves
of The ir comrades and appropriate
memorial services will be held
throughout the United States. The
ranks of the survivors of that mighty
struggle are rapidly thinning as the
years roll on and yet the number of
men still drawing pensions for their
services in the great conflict is a
constant source of wonderment to
large proportion of the people of
this generation, who seem to reason
that the war having ended over
forty-five years ago there should also
be an end to all those who took part
in it.
The survival of SO many pensioners
fifty years after the war began is
explained by the Cleveland Leader,
which reminds US that the armies
were composed almost entirely of
boys and very young men.
That may seem an exaggeration
to a good many intelligent persons,
yet it is literally the truth. The
total enrolment of Union soldiers
was 2,778, 800. This includes, of
course, hundreds of thousands of
reenlistments. Of this total, more
than 100000, at the time of their
enlistment, were under the age OF
twenty one years. Twenty-Five boys
only ten years old served under the
flag. 225 twelve years old, 1923
fourteen years of age, S44, 1891 six
teen years of age, and 1851, 848
eighteen years old. The exact num-
Der of those under twenty-one at
the date of their enlistment WIS g.
15O.7OS. Of all the soldiers of the
Federal armies, only 618,511 were
older than twenty-one when thew
took up arms.
These figures are impressive. And
1t should be remembered that the
greater part of the soldiers time
was srent in marching, digging en-
trenchments and living under hard
ships, In unhealthy camps, in a hos
tile and blasted country. Only g.
600 were killed in battle but 224 $50
succumbed to disease LARGELY
brought on by camp epidemics, ex.
posture and lack of proper food
And these boys, many of them,
fought bravely for four lo.g wears
for S13 a month in depre ciatec
currency.
Many cases of pension frauds
there undoubtedly have been. But
those who protest against the size
OF the pension list should corside,
that it is better to give hall
dozen pensions which are undeservec
than deny one that is. They shout,
bear in mimi that the reason s.
many veterans are still alive is tina,
they were boy soldiers. and futher
more that during the time whe1
other boys were preparing them
selves to enter the vocations of mer
they were in field and camp, defend
ing the flag. When they came back
many OF them were fit for little worl

They Don't Advertise

Here is the way the Seattle Trade
Register treats common grievance
of country merchants
"A grievance under which a large
number Of tradesmen suffer, par
ticularly those outside but within
the reach of large cities, is that a
considerable proportion of residents
in their neighborhood GO outside to
do their shopping and neglect the
local tradesman. The merchants
themselves are a good deal to blame
for these conditions. They don't
advertise. He who seeks for gain
must be at some expense. The
country newspaper, as rule, is we'll
edited and the editors are contin-
ually boosting their home town, yet
they get very little support from
the local mer chant. Looking over
three representative country papers
of last weeks issue, out of 100 adj
vertisements in those papers there
was only one grocery advertisement,
and that was only in the nature of
a business card. Dealers cannot
expect the public to trade with them
if they don't tell them through the
public press or other means what
they have for sale. When a duck
lays an egg she just waddles off as
if nothing has happened. When a
hen lays an egg there's a hi of
a noise. The duck has not much
confidence in its product, hence she
says nothing. The hen knows that
its product possesses exceptional
merit, and she advertises the fact.
Some country merchants act like
ducks, as though they were ashamed
of the goods they have for sale.
Advertise. support the town paper,
keep the trade in the town, and
thus add to the prosperity of all.
Don't fatten the mule and starve
the horse. The character of the
advertisements in the local paper is
an index to the prosperity Of the
town. No one wants his town to
be thought less prosperous than
Others"
For the purpose Of giving the
Evergreen State wider exploitation
than it has ever had before the
Washington Development League
has been organized. All CONNER.
cial organizations in Washington
are eligible and an effort will be
made to enlist the cooperation Of
each and every one. The state a.
a whole is to be advertised far and
wide. The fruits Of this publicity
! in the shape of inquiries will be
! placed at the disposal of all members
OF the League. One of its prime
purposes is to run down all fake
schemes being promoted here. The
i officers chosen at the initial meeting

Twenty steel trains constitute the
equipment Of the Chicago Milwaukee
&Puget Sound Railway, which Will
inaugurate its through service be-
tween Chicago and Puget Sound
Monday, May 20. Few people realize
what the beginning of this service
means, as it is another important
link between the Last and Pacific
Northwest. Two fast trains will
leave each end of the line daily.
They will be known as ''The Column
bian" and "The Olympian." Many
new ideas will be introduced in train
operation. 1.-The New Steel Trail
to the East" as the Milwaukee
chooses to be known, is doing effec-
tive exploitation work for the North
west and promises to being a large
volume of newcomers from the East.
According to The Ranch fastest
advices from the Yakima valley
would indicate that though the loss
of fruit by frost is severe, it is not
nearly so severe as first believed.
There will be a much shorter crop
of fruit throughout the state than
last year. This was expected, as last
year was one of the big fruit years
and it is the rule that the second
year is lighter. The blossoms indi-
cate that the crop this year will not
be over SO or 60 per cent of last
years crop. However, in all proba-
bility there will be just as much
money made, because prices are
certain to be high. Fruit growers
should make an extra effort to put
a first class article on the market.

Business is picking up and pre-
dictions are that the fall of 1911
will be one of the best known in
years. Following the decision of
the supreme court in the Standard
Oil case, the stock market showed
encouraging strength. And now
bankers say that money is becoming
freer. Merchants also report a re-
vival of business that is very hope
full. The imports and exports of
the Puget Sound district for April
show big gain over March. Re-
cent rains insure big crops. So that
taken all in all, there is nou SIMS
ter omen in the whole review.
On a per capita basis the people
of Washington are among the richest
on earth. The latest figures of the
State Tax Commission show that an
equal division would allot $1,000. 38
to each man, woman and child. The
assessed valuation of all property
in Washington is now $9O6, 247,944,
"a substantial increase since the
last report Of the commission.
