House quite often. 1t is natural enough that
he should feel inclined to have the same kind
of money take care Of the Presidents when
they conn out of the White House.
"The country was unnecessarily excited by
Mr.. Carnegie's offer. Money feels that it
owns this country and everything in it, includ-
ing human beings and national pride. And it
is natural, considering the part that money
plays.
GAS a result of Mr.. Carnegie's offer to give
ex-Presidents $4,000 a year and keep them
fat and happy the first bill has been intro
duced in Congress to pension ex-Presidents
Of the United States and their widows at pub
lie expense.
"Mr. De Forest, of New York, wants to give
former Presidents $4,000 a month-$1, 900 a
year less than Carnegie offered to give. Mr..
De Forest would give a former Presidents
widow a thousand dollars a month for life
while unmarried, and to the orphans of former
Presidents under twenty-one years of age two
hundred dollars a 10 onth.
1.-The time may com for giving comfort
able pensions to former Presidents of the
United States. 1t has not come yet.
"As this newspaper has pointed out at fire.
quent intervals for a good many years, Gov
eminent money should be spent for those most
sorely in need of it AND MOST HONESTLY
ENTITLED TO TT.
"Until the United States shall have pen
cIona1 pappiloco rootbopc br;,o ;, ,N ro,o.
families and until the Government shall have
arranged to pension old, worn out and penni-
less workmen that have given their youth,
their blood and their strength to building up
this country, there ought not to be any talk
Of pensioning former Presidents.
"The people give to the President the high
est possible honor.
"They give him a salary that enables him
to spend as much as they paid George Wash
ington or Abraham Lincoln, and still save
100000 cash in the four-year term.
THE President has $4,000 to spend on
travel, he has a beautiful house, servants,
greenhouses, automobiles, a warship for a
yacht, all paid for by the people free and
ABOVE his salary.
9th President of the United States can
live in the greatest luxury for four years, and
spend $4,000 on his family each year and go
out of office with $1,000 0 in cash in his pocket,
which will give him $4,000 a year for himself
and family forever IF THEY KEEP IT AND
INVEST 1T WISELY.
"That is not poverty. That is wealth.
"And a republic should have no money to
spend on $3.50 pensions for rich ~ex-employ-
es, while old, broken down men and women
that have worked faithfully are turned out in
their old age to die like spawned horses or
go to the poorhouse.
"Mr. Carnegie and others say that the for
Imer President should have a pension because
in case he spends all his money it is a national
disgrace to have him struggling for a living
when his term is over.
"SINCE WHEN HAS 1T BEEN A DIS
GRACE FOR ANY MAN TO WORK FOR A
LIVING IN A %REPUBLICq
"Or have we abandoned in theory as we'll as
in fact the notion of republican government in
America?"

before traders had introduced manu-

COLD COMFORT FOR MOTHER
Comment Of Boston Belle on Young
Mans Conduct Was Icy In the
Extreme.

General f. d. Grant, at Wash
toms birthday dinner in New York
some years ago, told story about a
young Boston Tory.
This Tory" he said, fought during
the Revolution neither on one side nor
on the other. He took pleasure trip
on the continent, and he didn't come
back home again until the war was
over.
He was treated very coldly by soci-
ETY. on his return, and this grieved his
good old mother to the heart.
''The dear old lady tried to explain
the matter one afternoon to a Boston
belle.
Naturally. as the head of the fam
fly she said, my son could not take
part in the war. To him fell the duty,
perhaps the more arduous duty, Of
protecting his mother and sisters and
looking after the interests of the es-
tate
