at o'clock this morning. Thus far
the defense has produced no new evil

Resolutions advocating that federal
pensions be granted to Confederates
were passed this morning after a
lengthy discussion by members of EN-
ma SAMSON camp, U. c. ", which met
at the courthouse. The resolutions con-
cede that the federal government is
not under obligations to grant pen
sions to southern soldiers, but calls at

foes, and concludes: ''we.would regard
the act as geiSerous. patriotic meas
ure as well as an honor to the Con-
