Welcome the Issue.
When public representatives in legisla
te tlvA bodies crew neellcrent In the discharge
of their duties, and give easy indulgence te
lobs which Individual members bring up,
there is urgent necessity te fall back upon
; Ike Tete power of the executive for the
proper protection of public interests.
"As a rule, executive officers In this coun
try have been sparing of the use of this
power, fearing te seem te usurp the legis
lative Junction, and te substitute their own
judgment for that of the legislators en
trusted with the power and re
sponsibility of making laws. The
result has been an alarming increase in
enactments of every kind, especially these
of a local and special character ; and a
strengthening of the tendency te run te
legislatures and te Congress for help of
aver; boil. i
The worst abuse of this kind has been in I
the pension business. The most liberal
laws and the loosest interpretation of them
have net sufficed te satisfy the rapacity of
claimants ; and the calendars of Congress
are leaded with this class of bills, for cases
which the scrutiuy of the department and
its vast machinery for investiga
tion have failed te approve. Con
gressmen give no sincere attention
te these bills. A committee may leek
into them, but as a rule they are
passed for favor by leg-rolling. Presidents
heretofore have signed them as a matter of
course. At last we have one who will net.
Mr. Cleveland long age proclaimed that
public office was a public trust. ITe showed
his sincerity in this belief when he was
mayor of lluftale. Ills ringing veto of a
bounty bill passed by the city councils at
tracted attention te him as a candidate for
governor. As executive of the state he
kept up his record. His vetoes were the
distinguishing feature of his administra
tion. They exposed l''m te the sharpest
criticism and were the subject of the
greatest laudation. They were bound
up iu a volume which became
a campaign text book, and chielly upon
that issue he was elected president. His
own strong personality, fitness and courage
-were the greatest aids te his paity in the
campaign. lie displays these again in hit'
intelligent inspection of the pension bills,
his iearle.a resistance of the buncombe
spirit which passed them and his resolute
disapproval of them, lint he accompanies
his vetoes with reasons which the people of
the country will read, and which they will,
as a whole, approve. General Legan is said
te have welcomed as a great national issue
for his party the president's veto of a
bill te pension a man who fell down the
cellar steps while home en a furlough. lie
has new get another issue in the veto of a
bill te pension a fellow who had the
measles in the army and fifteen years af
terward made the circumstance ground for
a pension. We welcome all such issues.
The time has come for a safe appeal from
all this bogus patriotism te the Intelligence
of the country.
A tiauie of Buncombe.
Mr. Peed, of Malno, leads the Repub
lican congressmen te make a solid front
against the preposition te accompany pen
sion bills with the appropriation of the
money needed te pay .them. The geed
sense of such a method in pension legisla
tion can hardly be disputed, and it is evi
dent that it is net the sensible portion of
the voters that Mr. Heed is catering te. All
such will agree that Congress should knew
what it is doing when it gives away the
people's money, and should provide the
funds te pay its charities when it votes
them.
The free way in which pensions have
been granted would receive a paralytic
stroke if the money should have te be pro
vided when the grant is made; for how
ever acceptable congressmen may consider
pensions te be te their constituents, they
knew that an increase of taxation te pro pre
vide them would net Ikj endureJ. Lavish
expenditures of the public funds in pensions
has caused no outcry because it hiis been
understood that there was an overflowing
treasury, and this has been by many consid
ered te be a geed way of redistributing the
money. Hut the prepositions new before
Congress te make grants te new varieties of
pensioners will require increased revenues
te cover them. The Itepublicans propeso
te grant them first and te let the Demo Deme
cratlc administration provide the money
afterwards or take the discredit of the
deficit. The Democratic majority In Cen-
grew declares te the Republican minority
that It will net de this ; but that if the
Itepublicans desire the new classes of pen-
t
t., wue j w -su.uusi.ed tuey must tee the
ije inarkand face the necessity of providing
u tuuue u, iw, mum-, man which noth
ing could be wUer or fairer. The Henub
licans In Cerigresa are showing their hands
tee plainly iu the game of buncombe they
are playing. They are maklug It tee evi
dent that they are solely occupied with u
desire te embarrass their political oppo eppo oppe
nents. They would de better te make a

Predncc the 1'roet.
We rather thought Mr. Welfe would net

imputations cast upenhls political integrity
by the Philadelphia 1'rcs. He w rites this
letter te the editor of that newspaper and
It undertakes te make rejoinder :

I.twlsbttrg, June SS, 1SSC.
The 2VfM is net altogether fortunate in
Its essay te respond te Mr. AVolfe's invita
tion te produce its proofs.
Upen the first subject it only reiterates
In another form what it said before, that
Wolfe " attempted te make an ar
rangement by which the Democratic
vote should be pledged te him " iu the
senatorial contest or lSl. It produces no
testimony te sustain this allegation ; it is
bound te de se. It is net true that " no
fact in the recent political history of Penn
sylvania is better understood than Mr.
Wolfe's effort, without consulting his Re
publican associates, te effect a Democratic
combination for his own advancement."
If the rrc.s can prove this it will pinch
Mr. Wolfe ; but it must prove it, or go
under.
Xordeesit pree that Mr. Wolfe ever
dickered for the nomination of lieutenant
governor. It says he " was the candidate
of Senater Cameren and Colonel Quay for
lieutenant governor in 1:!," and asks him
if he was net a party te that movement,
but it docs net prove he was.
As te the third charge that Wolfe sup
ported Cameren because he get his man
made a paster and folder the IVf.' answer
is equally barren of proof. It says : "Un
less well-known men In this state who,
whatever their ether faults, are net accus
tomed te lying, have mnnufactured a delib
erate falsehood, Mr. olfe did send such a
message, and it is certain that the reward
of silence was paid in the appointment."
Who were the men ? The l'ri.11 does net
say. It has net answered Mr Wolfe's let
ter; and yet it has afforded him a tine
chance te come back at it.
Reading's Water Trenhle.
Reading seems te have treuble every
summer with the quality of the water sup
plied te the town, notwithstanding the
effort that was made te obtain pure water
from the hills that closely environ it. The
trouble seems te have come from the very
source that was relied upon te prevent it.
The Schujlkill was rejected because of its
Impurity and the reservoirs were tilled from
the spring bed streams of the hills. The
consequence has been that such an
amount of vegetable matter is taken into
the reservoirs as te contaminate the water
in the het season. The damage may
be mere in seeming than In reality, and the
water be mere offensive te the senses than
injurious in its effects; but it does net
suit the taste of the Reading folk ; after
all the money they have sjieut te get geed
water they want it. They will hardly get
it without abandoning their present sys
tem. Large towns need te be supplied from
geed sized streams of running water that
is purified as it pursues its course. Springs
aud rivulets will net de. A basin at the
feet of a mountain that is the receptacle of
the surface drainage receives tee much
matter that is subject te decomposition.
Reading will have te go te the Schujlkill
or a lle wing stream of some size that passes
along one of its adjacent vallejs.

Mrs. .Maria Kirk Is an elderly lady who
llres with her grand-children near Hartferd
nitv. Indiana. She was very peer and is as
deal as a stone. Her only Km is nearly as
deaf. She was born Iu Riiglaud and seen
arterherarrlral hi this country married Jehn
Kirk, at Highsplre, lVnn'a. Jehn Kirk was
a collier and lived with his wife near Shlp
petisburg and alter at Ment Alte furnace.
He worked, according te his willow's state
ment, for a time at Southampton lurnace.
After some time spent In this county they
mered te Ohie anil lired there for a number
of years, when Klrk, for some unknown
reason left his wife, who let all trace of him
nnlll within the last few years. Mrs. Klrk
moved te Indiana arter teltig forsaken by
her husband, and has lived In this snte ever
since. Later developments show that Kirk
went te Illinois, -where, after a lapse of time.
he married another woman without having
secured a divorce from Maria, his legal wife,
lly the Illinois wlfe he had a family. When
the war began Klrk enlisted In Company D.
Seventy-ninth Regiment Illinois Volunteers,
and en Nev. 30, IsrJ, died at Nash ville, Tenn.,
of the measles. The Illinois wile drew all
the bounties, back pay and pensions as the
widow of Jehn Klrk, deceased, for a period
of nearly twenty-llve years.
About six years nge It was learned by
some et the friends et Maria Klrk that her
husband had died during the war, and had
another wife, as above stated. They put the
case In the hands of an attorney who has
clung te It, until new it Is entirely cleared
up, the pension department having recently
Informed the old lady that her claim had
beeu allowed, and she was entitled te draw
a pension of JS a month from November 30,
1SE, up te March l'A l?ti. and M- a month
thereatter as long as she will remain a widow.
Thellrst payment will amount te i Jj.tl'J. The
six years' delay in bringing this c-a-e te a
successful end was occasioned by the dllll
culties met with In procuring testimony. A
Justice of the peace married Klrk and his
tlrst wile but no record was kept ei the
transaction. The story of the woman was
such as te Inspire sympathy for her. The
love ei her youth she told In her own simple,
unadorned way. Kvery little memento of

examination the tears llowed from her eyes
and coursing down her cheeks told that her
leve for the wayward husband had net yet

home llugus Cases KvhasI.
In his batch of seven vetoes of ensen bills
en Wednesday, President Cleveland showed
that William 11. Deck claimed a pension by
reason of chronic opilepsy caused by "jar
te the head from heavy tiring." Six months
after this alleged "jar" and his consequent
epllepsy he re-enlisted upon a medical certi
ficate et perfect soundness aud served mero
than two years thereafter. The president
thinks this fact negatives the claimant's
declaration.
James Duller while absent from Ills regi

completed Its organization or had been must
ered into the service of the government, tell
Inte a cellar and broke his leg. The presi
dent can see no pretext ter allow lug a pension
in this case."
Mary J. Nettlnger's bill is disapproved en
the ground that her husband's "death was
uet the result et his service."
Rebert Helsey's bill is vetoed, the presi
dent being " et the opinion that a correct con
clusion was reached when the application for
pension In this case was deuled by the pen
sion bureau."
Alfred Denny's bill Is vetoed because the
president Is " satisfied tliore is net a particle
of merit In this claim, and no facts are pre
sented te me which entitle it te charitable
consideration." Denny's record showed no
disability, but twenty years after he was dis
charged he 11 led a claim alleging that he was
Injured by being thrown forward iteii the
horn of his saddle. The president says :
" The number et Instances iu w lilch these of
our soldiers w he rode horses during the war
were Injured by being thrown forward upon
their saddles indicate that thnse saddles were
very dangerous centrivancea"
Ine bill granting a pension te Marilla Par
sons is disapproved, because "there are no
Becial circumstances te distinguish this case
from many ethers whose claims might be
made by step-parents, aud there are no facts
stated in support et the conclusion embodied
in the committee's report that the soldier
was taken sick from oxpesuro incident te the
service. Te depart from all rules regulating
the granting et pensions by such an enact enact
meut as is projiesed would establish a prece
dent which could net fail te cause embarrass
ment and perplexity."
With regard tothecavjof Harriet Welch,
the president says: "Though this widow
admits that prier te her marriage with the
deceased soldier she had married another
man, whom she could only say she believed
te be dead, I telieve her case te be a pitiable
one, and wish that I could Jein in her relief.

pathy and charity."

The president has seut twenty-nine mes
sages te the Heuse, vetoing that number of
private pension bills. The act granting a
pension te Mary S. Woodsen is vetoed bo be bo
ciuse the claimant is unable te furnish any
ovidenceol the date or the cause of her hus
band's death. He left home in March, 1ST I,
for the purpose of finding work, and
has never been heard from since.
The president says : " His death may natu

his family Is such that it would be a posltive
gratification te aid thorn In the manner pre.

or any presumption, however weak, that he

Of the case of William lllshep, who was In
