TRAINS STOP AT CONCORD. JOMW K. OCLJESBY. -City Concord, N. C, December20, 1911. It is most gratifying to note that in all probability the Senate will not prove as disappointing as did the House in its action on the Sherwood pension bill steal. There is yet a ehanee for the Democrats in Con gress to retrieve the record ma.le by the House in passing this bill which is virtually a $75,000,000 raid on the public treasury. No one wants to leave without adequate jensions the men who fouplit to preserve the Un ion, but tlie trouble is that there does not seem to have been made a distinction between pensions and plain graft. The Federal pensioners Tha South pays the fiddler but tts no benefits now represent about one- half of 1 per cent, of the population, and are already receiving more tlianl'2 per cent, per annum of the Federal expenditures. In his efforts to dam the floodgates of extravagance. Rep resentative figures of the amount pent upon pensions by the United States and by other of the great mil itary powers. He Bliowed that ir 1910 we spent $33,000,000 more on pensions than the four combined pow ers of Great Britain and France (for both army and navy pensions), Ger many and Austria-Hungary (milli tary pensions alone); that between 1881 and 1911 the United States had expended nearly $3,000,000,000 more than France; between 1882 and 1909 $3459,000,000 more than Austria Hungary; between 1885 and 1909 $2, 921,000,000 more than the German Empire. Representative Konig, of Balti more, in a sketch of his life which was written by himself and publish ed in the Congressional Directory, made this statement, "He is married and lives with his wife." The Boston Globe in an editorial article entitled, "Mr. Konie Is Still Faithful," calls attention to the fact that the state mast has not been changed in the new Directory just issued. Mr. Ko nig said when shown the article: "Why should I change the state ment when I am still living with my wifef It is not every man who can rive with his wife. I think it is a great honor that Mrs. Konig permits ma to live with her. I consider it a compliment. Seel Many men, some of them Congressmen, do not lira with their wives. They would like to be able to put it in the Di rectory that they do. I got a good arife to begin with and she got a pretty good tort of a fellow for a hnsband, and that is why we live to gether. I do not intend to change the statement in the Diretcory. You may tell the man in Boston so." PABAG&APHS. A correspondent to the Roanoke Va. Ledger wrote a ball column on ttw killing df a pig.
