INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED.

Substantial increases in existing
rates of pension for disablement of the
limbs from injuries received in line
of duty, are contained in bill intro
duced by Representative George P.
barrow of Pennsylvania, which will
come up for action by the House at
the next session of congress. Mr.. OAR
rows proposed rates run from $65 for
the loss of total disability of one hand
Or one foot, to $3.50 for the loss or to-
tai disability of both arms and both
legs. They amount roughly to an in
crease OF about so per cent in the
existing rates for similar cases. The
bill is made to apply to persons al
ready on the pension rolls, and to all
who may be granted a pension here
after, but Mr.. barrow specifically pro-
vides that the measure shall not op-
crate to reduce any pension hereto
fore granted. The passage of this
measure will be heartily approved of
by the people,

which they may be purchased, the
fact that they are not subject to taxa
ton when held by persons of small
means-an will make them an at
tractive investment. Working people
whose margin of income above expen-
ses is narrow at best will find in them
an excellent incentive for beginning
the prudent habit of saving. They
will be popular for Christmas presents.
School children will be able to invest
part of their little weekly allowances
in certificates. AS a result many mil
lions will be transferred to the Fed
eEal Treasury and through it will flow
into the channels of trade, while the
people of small means will be made
to feel that they, too, are doing their
share toward helping their country
win the war.

A SOUTHERN LINCOLN DAY CELE-
BRATiOk.

On last Tuesday, while the people of
the rest of the United States, gener-
ally, were actually engaged in, or, were
in active preparation to engage in the
reverential commemoration of the one
hundred and ninth anniversary of the
natal day of the "Great Emancipator,"
Abraham Lincoln, the white people of
Estill Springs, Tenn, were engaged in
torturing and burning at the stake a
human being whose crime, that
brought this punishment, was in being
born black. The man was accused of
shooting to death two white men, but
it required methods that rivaled those
in vogue during the days of the Span
ish 1nquisition to wiring the confession
from him, as his guilt seems not to
have been fully established. The
press dispatches state that "he was
burned at the stake after a confession
had been forced from him by applica.
ton of red hot irons" More than
1000 persons, men, women and chill
dren were eye witnesses of the horror
and made no effort to prevent the
color-prejudice prompted crime from
taking place and that was far more
reprehensible than the crime of which
their victim was accused. The lead
ing virtue of the great man, upon
whose birthday this inhuman horror
was perpetrated was his HUMANITY:
and the thought of this upon that day
especially should have prevented it's
consummation. Jim McIllherron, who
met this horrible fate, may have been
guilty, but punishment for his crime
should have been meted out in accord
ance with law and by the legally con-
stituted executors of it.
We, here, all are loud in condemn
ing the horrors of German kultur, as
recorded day by day, that are little,
if any, worse than the case in point
which is allowed to pass with public
protest. And yet, we of the race va
riety of McIllherron, are expected to
be loyal to our native country and
fight and die, if needs be, to uphold
this government, that tolerates such
treatment of it's citizens.
