The sullOway Pension Bill.

It is a matter of some doubt II most
of the veterans of the civil war would
not oppose the Sulloway pension bill
If they thoroughly understood it's pro-
Visions Under this bill every man
who served ninety days in the civil
war or sixty days in the Mexican war
is eligible alike to it's benefits with the
man who actually gave his time to the
defense of his country and became a
real soldier. 1t seems scarcely fair to
place men who never smelled powder
on the same level with those who went
through grape and shrapnel and en-
listed for that war and the next. II
this bill, which adds 100000 to
the pension roll, bringing 1t up to
$2OO,OOO.OOO, we're out Of the way,
then legislation which really sought to
give deserving old veterans the re-
wards to which they are entitled
might be framed and secure favorable
consideration
1t is not opposition to pensions, or
to acknowledging the nations debt to
its defenders who offered their lives
for their flag. that prompts disap-
proval of this particular bill, but
rather it is a firm conviction in the
justice and equity of pensions that in
spires careful scrutiny. It is opposi-
ton to fraud, not to pensions, that i'm
pels so many real friends of the real
soldier to hope for the defeat of the
measure in the senate. Heretofore
in the whole history of pensions and
pension legislation positive proof OF
merit and service has been required,
but under this bill the undeserving
would share benefits equal to those
which go to the most deserving. The
soldier must be the first man inter.
ested in protecting the pension fund
from wrongful invasion.

Warships Short. Lived.

The fearful cost OF maintaining a
navy commensurate with the demands
of a great nation may be realized in
the simple statement that today the
United States has forty-five vessels,
aggregating in cost $13s,00O, 900, on
the retired list. some of them ready
to be sold for junk. The list includes
battleships, armored and seminar
mored cruisers, monitors, unarmored
cruisers and gunboats. Some of the
most famous vessels that ever flew the
American flag are among them. Every
vessel. for instance, but one, that par
ticipated in the battle of Santiago in
the Spanish-American war, is there.
The one still above the dead line is the

Thus we see the Ohio governor heir to

IL he did. did he not thereby offend
John r Mclean, who had decided that
he should have the toga that fell from

matter Of fact this is just what hap
pened. and today there is a wide gulf
fixed between Harmon and John r.
Mclean, owner of the Cincinnati En-
quirer and leader OF very considera-
who always stood on close terms with
the same interests which Wilson is
said to have alienated in New Jersey.
He wanted Harmon's support for the
senate. He felt Harmon owed it to
him and should pay his political debts.
Mclean had been leader Of the Har-
mon party, both for governor and
president He is out OF that party
now
Where. Of course, Harmon may have
an advantage over Wilson on this one
/ point is that he may be able to claim
| quite as large a following with the in
from him. and perhaps larger, for not
! only has he always been allied with
that element in politics and business,
but, being in office, he may have more
to offer for the support of these inter-
ests than Mclean would have. That
! is a question to be determined.
The man who really is keeping to
the middle of the road, offending no
one just at present, is the suave and
genial Champ Clark, the third big
figure in the democratic presidential

ness and practical politics, the Mis-
sourian is there and he will have to be
reckoned with from now on. To be
sure, his time for making mistakes
will come when he takes up the duties
of speaker next December, but in the
meantime both Harmon and Wilson
will not be denied any such chances.

Not the Right Remedy.

Governor Aldrich's special message
to the legislature offering a remedy
for election frauds and drawing a
vivid picture OF alleged corruption in
Omaha as an argument in support Of
his proposal, we fear hits wide of the
mark. Although repeatedly in vari-
Gus parts of his communication the
governor says that everything he
charges is notorious and of current
knowledge, he relates the story to the
legislature as IL it we're a new and
startling discovery. The facts are
that election frauds are seldom, II
ever. perpetrated in Omaha on a large
scale because of the vigilance of The
Bee and other newspapers, which ex-
pose them regularly on their first out
groupings. and because they cannot
succeed in the light OF publicity.
The Bee has been hammering for
revision of registration laws and cleo
ton laws before Governor Aldrich had
his attention drawn to this subject
But the abuses which The Bee would
have remedied go not only to the pre-
ventlon Of fraud, but to facilitating
the exercise OF the franchise by voters
now required to go to so much trouble
to be registered, or to swear their
votes in, as often to prefer self-dis-
franchisement. What we should have
in Omaha is some kind of a perma-
nent registration bureau with periodic
revision of the lists for those who
have changed residence or become
voters since the last election.
Confusing the registration boards
with the election boards, Governor AL
drich would revolutionize our whole
election machinery by taking over to
himself the appointment of all judges
and clerks of election in cities of
more than $1,000 population 1t goes
without saying that no governor at
Lincoln could appoint 400 election
officers for Omaha and South Omaha
except by taking the word of some
body recommending applicants to him,
and it would be doubtful II he could
do even as good a job as the present
appointing officers. The existing laws
require the appointment of election
officers from lists furnished by the
various political committees, with pro-
portionate division between them to
insure bipartisan boards. Under the
law each Judge and clerk of election
must be an elector residing In the pre-
cinct at least one year, the evident
purpose being to secure election off,
GERS not easily imposed upon because
personally familiar with the voters OF
their precincts. The improvement mos
desired is one of efficiency, which
would hardly be secured by merely
removing the appointing power from
Omaha to Lincoln. It might possibly
be secured by establishing a sort OF
civil service examination system and
requiring applicants for election-bootl
Offices to submit to reasonable tests tc
get on the eligible list.
If the governors special message II
prompted by his personal alteration
with the city clerk of Omaha, it is un
fortunate. We believe that If HI
studied the subject more carefully h,
would realize that, although there ii
room for improvement, his remedy IL
not the right one.

TAX SYSTEM ANT1QUATED.
Great Opportunity for Reform
Worth While.
MinneanoIis JournaI

Ureaa opportunity Tor Reform
Worth While.
Minneapolis Journal.
Governor Woodrow Wilson OF New Jer-
sey in his inaugural address describes the
present system of taxation as utterly alb
surd, having been devised in another age
for conditions that no longer exist. He
argues a new modern taxation.
The subject OF taxation is the most DIFF
ficut with which the government is called
upon to deal; but that is no reason why
it should be entirely neglected or why
we should fear TO rid ourselves OF a sys-
tenn that is antiquarian. ineqm, able. un-
equal and oppressive.
Governor Wilson does not recommend
some particular reform. He boldly in
diets the whole system as WORKOUT and
absurd. The system of taxation in prac-
tically all our states Is not a thing thar
can be patched. The old feudalistic and
personal property taxation ought to 20
entirely and a new taxation be substi-
tuted.
The defects Of our present system OF tax
alton are patent. It lies at the bottom OF
the corruption Of the people: il encourages
misrepresentation and perjury all along the
line; 1t burdens the poor, although no com
mon-sensed man can blame the well-to-do;
1t is, in short, ridiculous and evil.
Most OF our difficulties proceed from
the Obsolescence Of our laws. We have
an antique taxation, an antique finance.
an antique legal procedure When these
three are modernized thoroughly and ade-
quately, a great deal OF pressure upon
the nations brain will have been removed:
and nerves, temper, suspicion Of govern
ment and skepticism as TO honesty win
be relieved.
What the nation needs is reformers who
know what TO reform and how TO reform.
New York had such in her former Gov
ernor Hughes, and It looks as II New Jer-
sey had such IN her present Governor

The Political Mourner,s Bench.

Those ingrowing reforms shaking
the vitals of Adams county, Ohio, and
Vermillion county, Illinois, in some
ways remind one OF the old-time re-
ligiOus revival, when confirmed sin
ners marched up to the mourners'
bench and poured out their woes of
grief and sought forgiveness in the
presence of friend and foe alike 1t
often required a lot of courage to in
spire the spirit of repentance.
So it must be a crucial test OF some
of these political mourners to lave
their sin-smitten consciences in this
pool of reform Just now bubbling over
in these two baliwicks. The COM
parison gains force, too, in matching
the fervor of the old parsons plea
with the virile influence needed in the
present case to bring many a man TO
a realization and confession of his
guilt II is not the spontaniety OF the
penance that gives significance to the
mourning now going on. Else the re-
form judge in Illinois who set in mo-
ton this great wave of political puri-
flcation would not have thoughtfully
included in his instructions to the
grand jury the condition that the in
yestigation OF vote buying and selling
should not extend back further than
eighteen months. II is only through
ruthless disregard OF that judicial
J injunction that this Judge now finds
himself on the way to the mourners
bench, just as do other Officeholderl
