SENATOR BRADLEY EXPLAINS
Is on the Ground Knows Needs Of
Old Soldiers and. as in the Past,
will Take Care Of Their inter-
ests.
Washington, Feb. 20, 1871:

Washington, Feb. 20, 1912.
Editor The Citizen:
A perslstant effort is being made
to impress the Union Soldiers that
Pres. Taft is opposed to the passage
OF pension bill in their behalf
There never was a more miserable
falsehood uttered.
Supplementing this. in certain direc-
tions II is being circulated that ]
killed the Sherwood BIZ at the in
stance OF Mr.. Taft and am also OPP
posed to pension Bill. Those who
know my long and consistent record
as the soldiers friend will know this
is lie OF whole cloth. Since have
been In the Senate, have procured
the passage OF more special pension
bills than any three of my predeces-
sors. refer to late instance when
on February /. 1912 | reported favor
ably a bill (S.50i5) Increasing the
pensions OF one hundred and ninety
one soldiers. among whom were
number from Kentucky.
The Democrats in the lower house
have never before shown themselves
so devotedly and actively the friends
of the soldiers. They knew the Sher-
wood Bill would never pass the Sem
ate and IL seems clear to my mind
that their support OF II in many in
stances was a political maneuver to
obtain the soldiers votes. The ma
jority OF the Democrats in the Sen
ate are opposed TO that bill as are
majority of the Republicans. Be-
sides, the officers OF the Grand Army
Of the Republic appeared before US
and opposed II.
In the first place. even had ! for
the purpose Of political effect voted
for its favorable report. there would
have been an overwhelming majority
against It, But did not care to play
the demagogue when l knew II could
not pass and favorable report would
most likely produce conditions which
would lead to defeat of any pension
bin at the present session.
The next bill proposed to be re-
ported was the Burnham Bill which
carries an annual appropriation of
$39 ,S57 .636. which would entail a
cost of much less the first
wear hpcausa Of n failure tO have
the claims adjusted. but the second
year would entail cost of $40,373.-
s07 after which time II would stead
lily decrease by reason OF deaths.
