PENSION RAIDS. 11 though CQtigrefH bun been in ncsHion ies than thirty days, already pver 100 Itenaion bills bare been introduced, which if all become law would probably double the already mammoth cost of federal penBion. The Philadelphia Ledger (t'we the following summary of the more impor tant pension bills already introduced: "By Senator Cullom, one to pennion deserters, and another to pive $30 per iHODth to all veterans over 70 yenrn old (or their widows) who served 00 days in the war of the rebellion: by Hepre Htfntative Gibson, to pny $12 a month to .teamsters injured while employed in the Union army, to pity to Union soldiers j .'-!! : n i !.. ... i. i : - n ur gallon cupjuitfu in rrwi pimmi-iti f per dny for. each dny of imprisonment and $12 a mo-th for life, to pay $50 4 month to helpless soldiers or sailors, partly blind or with Ions of hands or feet, whether their injuries were received in the war or since, to restore to the rolls soldiers dropped because of their jnlistment for Spanish war; by Itepre HOntative Fitzgerald, to give $12 per month to survivors of the war who have reached the ajre of (10 years; by JNpre seritative Graham, providing a monthly payment of 1 cent per day for ouch luy in the service, in addition to any pension the, individual may now be receiving; by Uepresentatfve Barry, to give all widows and survivors of the Mexican and Indian jpara $12 "per month; by Representative Oochran, to giveall honorably discharged soldiers and sailors a service pension of $0 per month, to give all disabled and totally dependent veterans 70 years of age $15 per month, to give disabled veterans 70 years old $35 per month, and 75 years old $45 per month; by Rep resentative Grosvenor. to grant a pensionable status to 516 commissioners and. surgeons of enrolling boards,, to de tfnethe limit, of income for a widow which would bar her from receiving a pension at $300 per month, to restore all back pensions to persons temporarily dropped from the roll; by Representa tive UeVrlen, to pay veterans of the Mexican War who served in the civil war $24 per month. The pension attorneys are doing a flourishing business. They have already secured 23.000 applicants for pensions from soldiers enrolled for the Spanish and Filipino wars. Republican congresses are notorious for adding pensioners by the wholesale and for passing all sorts of laws for raiding the treasury and adding to the burden of the poor tax payers. Unless the; Republican party is over thrown they will make the burden so heavy upon ordinary citizens, in order to pay for pensions, subsides; unnecessary wars, etc., that it will lie insufferable, It is already, nearly so. Down wit h the Republican party I it is claimed uy. Americans living in Manila that a hemp trust has been form ed by capitalists there and that military authorities ore playing into its hands It is also claimed by returned soldiers from the Philippines that Gen. Otis is richer by about two million dollars than when he first set foot on the islands. These may be-among the reasons for not bringing this tvar to a speedy termina tion, says the, Durham Herald.
