1 1 3 'it' gailit democrat. A HFl'UBUCSN ON FKNSIOW. We have repeatedly asserted that the demand for pension reform is not a partisan one, that republican statesmen and papers not governed by petty partisan motives are urging a reduction of pension expenditures by a revision of the laws and an investi gallon of the pension lint, and that old soldiers of all ranks ure insisting that the pension roll be purged of the names im properly placed upon it. The Cincinnati Times-Star, whose republican orthodoxy cannot be questioned, is outspoken for thorough pension reform and for this has been made the target of attack by some purblind republicans who, it says, "fail to discriminate between assaults on pension abuses and antagonism to the pension system," although it "may be truly said that the enemies of pension frauds are the special friends and strongest allies of deserving pensioners." Our Cincinnati republican contemporary is not to be turned asido by such attacks but presses on with increased vigor. In reply to one of its assailants it says that "in the presence of the gigantic pension burden resting upon the nation the only safe plan of doing justice to the deserving soldier is to deal out justice to the undeserving " that abuses must be stopped and the frauds cut off. "If," says this republican organ, "25 per cent of the $00,000,000 paid to pensioners a dozen years ago went to a multitude of people who made false oaths to get it, as l'ension Commissioner Dudloy publicly said at that time, under the more liberal and more lax laws subsequently passed how much of the $105,000,000 may we presume now goes into the pockets of men and women who got their names on the rolls by dishonest and criminal methods? Is it less than one-third? Is nothing to be done to make an end to this colossal imposition, which not only places heroes on the same plane with skulkers and robs the public of untold millions of dollars, but tends in every community to gloss over turpitude and crime, to render swindling somewhat respectable if done in the name of patriotism and the government is the "victim, and to demoralize a large element of society beyond reparation by all the religious influences that the churches can exert? is not an exaggerated statement of present conditions. In every city, town, village and rural district the common knowledge that men and women of good social standing have withoat the slightest apparent compunction sworn to lies and practiced other forms of rosculity to secure pensions is today operating upon a consid erable class like a moral leprosy." This is plain language. Had it been uttered by a democratic journal there would have been a yell of "rebel democrat" and "democratic hater of the union soldier" from tho republican papers whose chief stock in trade is made up of appeals to passion and prejudice instead of reason and judgment. It is, however, tho language of a stanch republican newspaper, better entitled thnn any other in Ohio to speak for the intelligant element of tho party. Newspaper ridicule of Mr Hoke Sn.lili, the young democratic statesman of Georgia, because of the peculiarity of his Christian name, Is coarse and offensive. Our Atlanti friend has the advantage of a Christian name to distinguish Ulra from the vast army herr ing his surname. Hi has the honor of the famtly name ot his mother, who was the daughter of a jurist of hiyh reputation in North Carolina, Nancy Hanks was the name of President Lincoln's mother before she was married, and the simple-minded son, In all the glory of hit greatness, never forgot his mother's name. The death of General Beauregard leaves but one ot the seven full generals of the Southern army living ind none of the five men on whom that rat.k was conferred at the beginning of the war. These five msn were Cooper, I.ee, Joseph K Johnston, Al bert Sydney Juhngton and Beauregard. Va(; and Kirhy Smith were afterwards made fall generals. Kitby Smith alone survives. The Washington Post says that Logan Carlisle, son tf ex-Senator Carlisle, will he chief clerk of the treasury under his father's administration of the department and will he his father's right hand man In the treas ury. Logan Carlisle Is thirty years old, has a wide acquaintance with public men and an intimate knowledge of his father's aftairs. II '. .11 I B l-L A new English work entitled "The Cor rect Thing" maintains that it is correct fur children to remember that, though they may be much better born than their parents, still these Inevitable persons are their fel-law-crcatures. There are many children to whom this will be news. --j 1 li.Eji .J? U will be just as troll to let in tre res of tho territories now and have done with it. None of them will be ns much of a rotten borough as Nevada that was let in solely for the use of tho republican party and of two or three millionaire mine bosses. The Vice-President nd Mrs. Morion have issued invitations to a reception to be given in honor of the Vice-Presidcnt-tlec1 and Mrs Stevenson We Ineday evening, March I. II. n. mom-: TO UESTIUIT EbOI'lXG. AVord comes from Milwaukee that the Wisconsin legislature will very probably pjt into effect, some time during the spring, a law demanding that couples must have resided in that state at least thirty days before they may be married. The invidious intent of this measure will not be lost on Chicago young couples .contem plating elopement. To run up to Milwau kee at breakfast time as batchelor and maid and come back to Chicago for supper as man and wife is one thing easy and expeditious. But to go thither at the beginning of one month and wait lonesome ly till the beginning of the next is quite another. There is too much of the leisure which briugs repentance. And it is expen sive. And it invites pursuit and capture. On tbe whole, looking at the thing from the view point of the elopers, the measure is a good thing. Rash and hasty marriages ate generally unwise as those who contract tbem find out soon enough. And nt present Milwaukee is a temptation to enter upon tbe thorny ways of matrimony without pausing to think. Allen W. Thurman has thought out a plan which he thinks will solve the financial problem and dispose of the currency ques tion to the satisfaction of all. His proposi tion Is that silver dollars shall be the basis for national bank circulation. The banks are Is be required to deposit in the Uni'.ed States treasury go per cent. In such dollars, upon which they are to be permitted to issue too per cent ot notes. Tttis would always insure special payments and give the banks a profit on their circulation which they do not now enjoy. Mr Tburman argues that silver and gold would with free coinage and this amendment to the national banking law be at a parity in twenty years aed the strife between the two metals cease.

HHcfc Vest Duluth, Minn. " I have been a vrry preat sufTerer from a seri ous case of scrofula. First, a large bunch came In my neck growing as big as a good sized apple. It was as hard as bone, and after drawing it to a head tho doctor lanced It, and for two yean It Was a Running Sore Then we succeeded In healing It up, but the dis ease began to appear In my face, which would swell up ami aiTcot my eyes so that every morn ing they wero so inflamed and swollen that I ttiii blind. Tho swelling would subside in the middle of the afternoon so that I could see a little. Veil, I was in this condition for about a year. I went to every physician In my town, all of whom failed to help me and said aotaing could be done to cure me. But I began to take Hood's RirsaparlUa, and when I had used a bottlo and a half, the swelling in my faco had entirely gone down. 1 kept on taking the medi cine, and gained 33 pounds in weight. I Have Been Perfectly Cured am now hi pood health, and confidently s Hood's Sorsaparilla saved me from tho gra?. Today I am looking as stout ami hearty as ever Cures In my lite, and I cheerfully recommend Hood's Sarsapanua to anyone suffering from blood dis eases." William Iku k, West lHiluth, Minn.
