SIDELIGHTS

Occasionally, southern democrats at
tempt to play politics with pensions.
They introduce bills providing monthly
revenue for Confederate veterans Such
bills are dead before they are born, his
tory proves Attempts, however, win
favor with Confederate veterans. those
sponsoring such bills, it is evident, are
convinced. -.
1t is probable. however, that the ma
jority of those who fought the federal
governments incurSions into the south
ia 1S6I-65 would spurn a gratuity
hurled at them by the federal govern
meTit. 81. ''.
There is proof regarded as adequate
that the introduction by democrats of
bills pensioning Confederate soldiers is
dangerous. In the first place, they
cannot be enacted. In the second place,
it is doubtful that Confederates appreci-
ate such attempts.
In the third place, the very intro
to. defeat every democratic member of
Congress- living above the Mason-Dix-
on line. .-...- 49,
When the democrats were last in pos
session of both Houses of Congress,
Representative Tillman of Arkansas,
declaring that the Confederate war was
over, and the country reunited in
brotherly love. introduced bill pen
sioning Confederate soldiers at $40 a
month. At that time, federal soldiers
were drawing an average of $50.
In the ensuing election, the democrats
lost both houses. As to the effect of
Tillman's scheme, former Representa-
tive Cullop of Indiana would prove a
good witness. =
Cullop was a democratic member and
an able man. He was defeated in 1918.
When he charged his defeat to Tillman,
his sympathetic colleagues were amazed.
Did they circulate the Tillman bill
in your district?'' he was asked.
did they circulate. it," returned
Cullop. They plastered the district
with it. And they left the impression
that it had been enacted. And then
they said See what the democrats
will do if retained in power They are
now paying the men who defended the
government only $50, and the men who
attempted to destroy the government
