are brought face to face with the
bold proposition to cross the bor
derland from state regulation to
state ownership, and to make a
final step from individual competi
tive enterprise to socialistic mo
nopoly." Poor fellow, he has got
it terrible bad. Government
better sell out its mail pouches for
fear of committing "socialistic
monopoly."

Talmage seems to have imbued
I a liking for pugilistic encounter.'.
He says: "It is a bad thing to
have a jaw broken and a few drops
of blood shed, but is it not less
distressing than to bieak a thous
and jaws and to cover miles of
territory with the signs of carnage?
If the world must fight, I prefer
the fight of a recent date. AVhy
not, instead of a Zulu war, in
which thousands of Englishmen
and Zulus were put to deaih, have
compelled a Disraeli, after he had
instituted the war, to go forth to
meet a responsible Zulu, and have
two battered and bruised men in
stead uf 10,000?"

There is no question in the
minds of patriotic citizens of tiie
country, as to the justice and
necessity of paying every disabled
union soldier who took part in the
war of the rebellion and the
widows and orphans of such
soldiers.
The only question is how to best
meet the demands and do exact
and equal justice to all applicants.
it itrue that a vast number of
deserving cases fail to obtain the
ileired pensions for lack of evi
dence to meet the requirements of
!wk tortknii.)! tninru if tlw loir A '
l I1U L 111 LUUI f friw lO VI !..
late article in a leading daily says
that there is an ascertained list of
cases, numbering about 10,000, in
which applicants find themselves
unable to make the technical
proofs required. There is no doubt
that their disabilities were ac
quired in the service of their !
country, and the proof can be
made by other testimony than the
law now requires, but by reason of
the death of medical or hospital
officers, or of company or regi
mental officers, or the destruction
of records made in the field and
lost in the field, they are barred
out under the present laws.
All persons who have any con
tact with pension matters and
pensioners have knowledge of such
case3. There are manv widows,
eld won en now, who have mislarU j ...
their certificates of marriage, and j anr
find that the person who solemn
ized the marriage is dead, and the
records, always loosely kept in this
country, deficient. They are there-fo-e
unable to submit technical
proof in the absence of tiiis pri
mary evidence. The law ought to
permit secondary evidence, ob
tainable from their neighbors who
know' that they have sustained
the marriage relation.
It is not to the discredit of the
framers of our pension laws that
these cases should exist, .-nice it is
not amongst human possibilities
fur a law to be framed, in advance
of experience, that shall meet all
the caws in such an extensive field j R. P. Strahan, Chas. E. Wol ver

Senator Mitchell favors the
reduction of the duty upon opium
from ten to three dollars per pound,
as a measure to abate the smug
gling of the drug into the country.
He thinks the ten dollar duty,
which was put on with the idea of
prohibiting it from coming into the
country, lias the opposite effect
and really stimulates its introduc
tion through the smuggling me
dium. The Commercial Bulletin, in its
opposition to the postal telegraph
bill before congress, explodes with
