10 INCREASE PENSIONS OF WID-
0Ws OF CIVIL WAR VETERANS.

Washington, D. C.-Just before
Congress adjourned on September
sth the Senate passed what is known
as the Ashbrook widows pension
Dill. The measure makes very i'm
portant changes in the law granting
PENSIONS to the widows of officers
and men who served in the Civil war,
'he war with Mexico and the war of
iSl2, AT present all widows receive
we've dollars a month. The Ash
Ofook bill provides that all widows
OF men who served in the war with
mexico or the war of 1912 shall here
"i'er receive twenty dollars per
mohth, and that all civil war widows
VINO can show that they were wives
vi the veterans during the period of
'e war or who have reached the age
VI seventy years, shall be paid twen-
" dollars per month.

REPUBLICANS RESORT TO FAKE MOVIES TO7
[REATE FALSE IMPRESSION ABOUT MEXICO
When Maine Ruled Conuress

when the Republicans had control
of Congress, practically all the chair
ihahshlps went to the North, for the
simple reason that there were few
Republican representatives from the
south. AT one time Maine had four
Republican Congressman. One was
speaker of the House, another was
chairman of the Ways and Means
committee, the most important COM
mittee in the House and the others
were chairmen of the committees on
Naval Affairs and Public Buildings
and Grounds.
Did any one in those days raise the
cry Maine is in the saddle," or
course not. We all knew that Maine
congressman had attained these high
posltlons because their constituents
had kept them in the House for a
long t1me-and service counts for
great deal in Congress.
The South has followed Names
example and when the Democrats
came into power many of our south
ern brothers were eligible for chair
manships and they got them.
Why not? Is a man to be dis
criminated against merely because
he was born south of the Mason and
Dixon line?
Legislational Not Sectional
What difference does it make
whether the chairman of a commit
tee is a Southerner or a Northerner
so long as his committee reports leg
islation which is good for the entire
country?
Kitchin of North Carolina, as
chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee, reported out the great
revenue act and rural credits law.
If those two measures are fair samp-
les of "the South in the saddle" l
think the country will say Give us
more of it."
Hay of Virginia handled the mill
t2ry bill and Padgett of Tennessee
put through the naval bill. Both
Southcrners, yes. But how about
their work? Would the bills have
been improved if they had borne the
names of men from Pennsylvania
and Colorado?
The fact is, there is nothing to
this sectional issue. Our Republican
friends have taken it up because
they do not dare discuss the real
questions of this campaign.
The Monte Vista journal., 1916-09-23

In addition to the foregoing the
law is changed so as to provide that
where tie widow of a civil war vet
eran re-marries and her second hus-
band dies she may be replaced on the
pension roll by applying to the bur
eau of pensions.
Heretofore it has been necessary
for the widow of civil war veteran
j show that she had married tn
soldier prior to 1890. This date has
been changed by the Ashbrook bill
so that all widows who married vet
Grams before June 27, 1905, are
given a pensionable status.
These changes of the law are So
important that they affect thousands
of widows scattered all over the
United States. If they are to avail
themselves of the law they shoull
communicate with the commissioner
of pensions at once. 1t is not neces-
sary for these widows to hire attor-
neys. Those who live in the third
congressional district Of Colorado
may communicate with my secretary
room 1872, House Office Building,
Washington, d. c., and he will gladly
supply them with the necessary
blanks and instructions.
am asking the papers throughout
my district to print this statement, in
order that the beneficiaries of the

passage of that act.

LIQUOR TRADES IN
WAR ON SUFFRAGE
Senator Jones Declares Minnesota Fed
Grafton of Labor Is In the Grip
of Wet Interests

Duluth, MINI, July 27.-"That the
Minnesota Federation Of Labor is
doomed absolutely by the liquor
industry was again clearly proven by
the action taken by that body on the
suffrage resolution" said Senator
Richard Jones. who was a delegate to
the convention, representing the tele-
s.ra2hsrs. union.
The liquor traders were lined up
solidly against suffrage. 1t is a sig
nificant fact that the unions affiliated
with the beverage industry had a full
quota of delegates In almost every
instance.
THE action OF the Winona convsn-
ton in repudlating suffrage a year
ago stirred up much resentment
among the rank and file Of union men.
This was reflected on the floor of tAe
Hfbbing convention, as delegates
who were anti-prohibition called at
tentton to the danger ard warned the
convention against the reputation OF
principle which the trade union
movement had advocated for years.
The anti prohbitionlsts might get

win Extend Activities.
THE organization OF the Trade
Union Dry League Of Duluth is not
only justified. but developments at
Hibbing demand that the league ex-
tend its activities, and endeavors to
form similar organizations throughout
the entire State.
III the liquor interests want fight
on this question we will accept their
challenge, Union labor men who
hold true to the principles Of the
labor movement should become ac-
tive from now on to show the liquor
interests that they cannot evscc the
labor movement and use it for their
own selfish purposes.
THE liquor interests have been
able to induce the fedora tons of labor
in but two States to repudiate equal
suffrage, namely: Minnesota and New
Jersey. The Republican, Democratic.
Progressive. Prohibition and Social
list parties have all Endorsed it. Do
the men in the beverage Industries
think they can stem the tide? The
result OF their efforts in these two
States viii be to give a black eye TO
the labor movement and nothing
else"
