Gov. Campbell's Pension

An incident of the late Gov.
Campbell's life related in our news
columns yesterday illustrates well
the quality of his sense of honor and
of his patriotism. About 35 years
ago, wnen he was governor Of Ohio,
some of Mr.. Campbell's friends,
| knowing what financial straits he
was in, without his knowledge OBJ
tanned the enactment of a law by
Congress granting him a pension of
500 month in recognition of his
services in the Civil war. Much as
he needed the money, Gov. Campbell
would not take it. He said he could
mot bring himself to take money for
having tried to do the duty that fell
to his lot in war. Later, when PEN
sions were granted to all veterans of
the Civil war, he permitted his check
to come to him but always turned it
over in full to his Grand Army post.
He still felt that he could not ac-
cept and use money for having done
what he, as a strong young man,
could do to help save the Union.
This is pretty fine. 1t argues de-
voted patriotism and the highest
ethical standards. Honorable COM
rades of Mr.. Campbell differed with
him on the propriety of accepting
pensions, many who did not need the
money and VINO had not suffer ed by
reason of their war experience TAX
ing what was voted them and count
ing it among their personal assets.
Such a questiln is one for each in
dividual to d. eide for himself. But
no right-minded man can fail to ac-
cord the highest respect to Gov.
Campbell, feeling as he did about
it, for the manly attitude he took at
time when any money honestly
come by must have looked very at
tractive to him. A great old soul he
was.-O. S. Journal.

mas savings funds running well into
the millions, from which most holi-
day requirements now are financed,
with remaining surplus to induce
future thrift and saving. Then
there are the other millions spent
for Christmas toys alone, and use
full gifts whose cost reaches far
greater aggregate. 1t is beside the
truth to say that all this indulgent
spending is extravagant and grudg-
ing, and destructive to the good ma
ture of those who cheerfully pay.
So why not put a better countenance
upon those responsible for the sue
cess of Christmas festivities? And
why not make the faithful old wal
let appear round and full, instead Of
a poor fattened thing radiating
gloom and discomfort? No purse was
ever drawn upon for better cause.
This killjoy criticism is never direct
ed against billions of spendings in
other directions for luxury, prize
fights, baseball, wars, and general
amusements.- Beacon Jour-
nal.
