The President has vetoed the de- pendeat pension bill and has put a %uietus to pension jobs for this session at least. The bill was a scheme pure and simple to rob the people of mill- ions of dollars each year, and was got- ton up by attorneys and agents ostensibly in the interests of those who had served a period of three months in the Army or Navy of the United States and who are not yet pensioners. It was a grand steal and would have feathered the nests of many a pension jobber, but the veto of Presi- dent Cleveland has settled that matter, It is a well known fact that thousands to-day drawing pensions who never were wounded in battle and who never contracted disease in the service, and through the most barefaced lying and pension are who have obtained pensions serjury.

The resignation of Becretary Man- ning which has long beeu talked of, takes place on the appointment and qualification of his successor. This is the first break in President Cleveland's Cabinet and one that will be great- ly regretted by all parties. Mr. Man. ning is peculiarly fitted for the great fisoal head of the nation and has made for himself a reputation second to that of no man who has filled that position. Mr. Manning's resignation is in a manner compulsory as his physical condition requires rest of both mind and body. And while he has accepted the presidency of a great banking in- stitution, its labors are not nearly #0 arduous or exacting. Mr. Fairchild it is supposed will be Mr. Maoning's successor. Mr. Manning is one of the brainiest men of his time and it is to be regretted that his health necessitat led his retirement — a — Blind for Beofling KESB ABAE, Made Wik Edwards, a we 10, 4 ali reat misior- | : Hurry) A Mount Holly Tragedy.
