FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1894.
PENSION REFORM.
The day for lefor.tis has forced it
self upon the people and now let us
have genuine reform. Among all
others, let us have pension reform.
Abolish examining bDarils, dispel with
pension attorneys, burn the pension
rolls, smash the pension machines,
but pension tne veterans and theii
widows. Take the muster roll, and
every soldier who has an honorable
discharge, give him a pension. Di
vide the soldiers into two c'asses - the
disabled and the able. Give the dis
abled a pension beyond want, and all
the rest an equal pension. Serve the
boys all alike. The n.oney that is
appropriated for them, they should
have all of it without half of it leaking
away before it reaches thcni through
a corrupt and rotten pension machine.
There is no need of swearing or prov
ing claims and "false swearing" and
all that. The muster roll and dis
charge papers are the best pension
claims that can be produced, and that
excludes all "skedadlers", ''bounty
jumpers", bush whackers", "scalla
wags" and "pension sharks". The
boys stood and fought shoulder to
shoulder, some of them fell, some
were crippled, some diseased by ex
posure and therefore many are dis
abled. Give them a bountiful pen
sion. And whatever the government
can afford give to the rest of the boys
each alike, and I venture the predic
tion that the soldiers will be better
pleased and better treated than ever
heretofore, and it will cost the govern
ment less money. This at least is my
democracy. C.
Business Waiting for Congress.
We have gone through the valley
of business despondency, and with
the opening of the new year there is
every prospect of revived commerce
industry and trade, if Congress shall
promptly discharge its duty.
Business is waiting for Congress,
and every business man who urges
delay in the revision of the tariff and
in the adoption of a sound financial
policy simply urges the continuance
of business depression, which always
carries with it want in the laborer.
Tariff revision is demanded by an
overwhelming majority of the Ameri
can people. In the two great na
tional contests of 1890 and 1892 the
people expressed themselves for tax
reduction by tariff revision with un
exampled emphasis. It is a com
mand that must be obeyed.
While tax reduction on the neces
saries of business and of life is an im
perious necessity, the supply of reve
nue sufficient to meet the expenses
of the government is a like necessity
that Congress must respect, and the
way to provide revenue is to do it by
the manliest methods possible.
Stop fooling about an income tax.
It will not pass both houses of Con
gress, however earnestly urged, and
it would not pass the approval of the
country. The party that goes back
to an income tax in time ot peace
must become a suicide.
The short and easy way to supply
most, if not all, the revenue needed is
to restore a tax of one cent per pound
on refined sugar, with eight mills per
pound on raw sugar and repeal the
sugar bounty. We are now paying
one half cei.t per pound on raw sugar
and over $10,000,000 of bounty. I he
addition of a half cent per pound and
the repeal of the sugar bounty would
give the treasury nearly or entirely
the amount of additional revenue
needed without perceptibly increas
ing taxation upon the people.
No party can afford to dally with a
bankrupt treasury, no matter what
patty or what causes may have pro
duced it. The national credit is
sacred and must be scrupulously
maintained. I he present treasury
deficit is caused solely by the proflig
acy of the republican party, but the
faith of the government must be nil
filled, the expenditures must be met,
and it is no grave task to adjust our
tariff and internal revenue laws to
6upply all that is needed.
Above all let congress bear in mind
that business is waiting for its action
and if there shall be delay in the res
toration of business prosperity it must
be because of wanton delay in Con
cress to enact the laws clearly dV
manded by the sovereign power of
the nation.-Times.

The Right to Boycott.
The Supreme Court, speaking
through Judge Dean, decided Tue?d n
that it is liAfi'f tr a tM of tv.enn
MlMilC t 'i-.lx up ; ii vJier lli:i:i's
jusiucss it i.j las tioiitf anitiiiii' m
is!.-a-e tlntn. The l.ivs i ( (. ; i.
ta'i; have l.-a gu-.itly relaxed on the
ject of i-onspnacy. No one damn
that dissatisfied employees may not
leave their employment, subject to a
w limitations on locomotive engineers
and others as to time and place. This
regarded as a matter of course un
der our State law, though a United
States Judge sitting in Milwaukee last
week issued an injunction "restraining
mployees and unions from combining
and conspiring to quit, with or with
out notice, the service of the road
wiih the object of crippling or em
barrassing its operation, and generally
from interfering with the oflicers and
agents of the receivers."
I he railroad thus protected by the
segis of the court is in the hands of re
ceivers. It is, therefore, under the
pecial protection of the court. Sol
vent corporations ami private con
cerns arc not so guarded. They will
come in this State under the law as
laid down by Judge Dean viz., that a
business may be lawfully boycotted
and even broken up by a combination
at will prevent its doing business
n the case decided the boycotters
ere not employees, but employers
who refused to furnish supplies to
other firms in the same business who
ad conceded the demands of the
strikers. The court, finding that the
aw allowed employees to combine to
compel acquiescence in their demands,
decides that employers hive the same
privilege.
lhe decision is only all around jus
tice, since it allows the same weapon
to both sides. The weapon is a deadly
one and in tha never ending conflict
between labor and capital it is bound
to do much injury. We prefer the at
titude of the United States courts.
hich, instead of distributing deadly
eapons, disarms both sides and com
mands the peace. lJreas.
