those States would feel like taking to the

CAb!y and unalterably oppose! to frae
silver coinage. They do not, however,
occupy the Fame ground. On the con
trary, their monetary views are widely

Sire, excej4 sabeidiarr, stopped and all
purchase of silver to serre as s moneta

There is no reason why snr Southern
State should be in favor of free coinage

of cotton, should imperil its interest on

danger of losing any of these States in
November for U.e reason given by Mr.
Lland ; bet we object to his making the
silver question s distinctly sectional ques
tion, barely the South has had enough
of sectional issues. For more than twenty-five
years we have been striving to
make the greater part of the country
north of the old line Leiieve that ths

during the last few years we Lave been

H"a.i', D. C, AprU 19, lsii
To lAe ('ojtmiMoter of Ptuxvint ;
Sir:
I have received your letter calling
my attention to the vast amount of work
imposed upon your Bureau in connection
wiia the correspondence of members of both
Houses of CoTisrees concercinr penron
claims, and slating that the handiirg of
tha Congressional call slip in their pro
gress thro Jgh the various divisions of the
Bureau occupies the time of many clerks
and requires the drawing of tm re than a
thousand cases a day ; thbt to answer ai! the
ca!la made would virtually stop the adjudi
cation of claims ; that only aViut twenty
five per cent, of them are answered; and
that the courtesy extended to Members of
Cor. press has been a ousel by certain persons
acting as private secretaries the informa
tion obtained upon the examination of pen
sion claims called down upon Congressional
siips having been furnished to attorneys and
to claimants for a consideration. To show
to what extent the correspondence in respect
to pension claims is carried, you state that
you have before you one case in which the
claimant has addressed more than thirty
letters to members of the Senate and House
of Representatives, all of which have been
forwarded to your Bureau for immediate re
ply, the claimant having been twice exam
ined by competent medical boards and bo
disability discovered. In another case, al
though the claimant has been notified of the
evidence required to establish his claim, but
has not undertaken to furnish any of it, you
state that thirty-eight letters have been re
ceived from different prominent persons, all
f which have been filed with the claim.
You state that w hat is now needed in the
interest of claimants, and for the orderly ad
ministration of the laws, is fur the elirt
rVor of the Burma to detnte iU ener;ie to the
a IjK'iicalhn uf th' claibj nmt cotHJete, atd to
Mr nn'':lnrj of auU uyoa 0j Uor Department
fur the utUiltuy and kwplliil re-vi ds of daita
auUrnl'tlai the eLiljuiAtt for etldeitce to
r mj-vt: tlteir r-itet, and ordering medical uom-iti-ition
viih the Kiiuuaum amount of cone
tjinixdettce in rtft to pending claim. You
state that there are now 10.0 'J casa on the
completed files which are being drawn for
a'ljadica'ion in the order of the date of their
completion ; that from 1. ."-) to 2,C0 claims
per day are being added to these files as tbey
are completed ; aad that from 23,000 to
:,'." certificate per month are being is
sued upon claims allowed.
To correct the evils here described your
Bureau should correspond direct with either
the claimant or his attorney and thereby re
lieve members of Congress from the enor
mous correspondence which has caused the
same infoimation to be many times dupli
cated and reiiuired the services of a large
corps of clerks who should be occupied with
more legitimate duties. As there are now
pending in your Pureau 5o,t claims, aid
additional clainss arc being filed every day,
two and one-half or three years will be re
quired to adjudicate them. It must be evi
dent to both claimants and attorneys that
much patience is required that all these
claims cannot be adjudicated at once.
Claims are being considered as rapid!y as
possible not in the order in which they are
Cid, for that would be impracticable, but in
the order in which they are completed.
Now, in view of the great magnitude of
the work pending before your Bureau, and
to insure an impartial enforcement of the
ruin of the Department concerning the ex
amination of papers, I direct that hereafter
either claimants or their attorneys shall be
advised of the status of their claims, direct,
so far as the force of your Bureau will per
mit, and that such information shall be giv
en direct to claimants on Congressional cal 1
slips, thereby obviating the necessity of fur
nishirg the same information many times.
I further direct that you cause all claims
pending in your Bureau, not on the com
pleted tiles, to be examined as rapidly as
possible, taking them up in the order in
which they were filed; and, whenever a
claim b found complete, it shall be placed
on the completed files and claimant cotiued
as to when his case will probably be reach
eL Where cases are not complete, claim
ants shall be noli lie. whit further evidence
is necessary to complete the same. Claim
ants will not be satisfied to be told that their
claims will be adjudicated "when reached in
their order," but will wait patiently if to!d
that their claims are on the completed files
and will be reached in six or sixteen months,
and if assured that claims completed prior
to theirs are awaitrng action. I recognize
the fact that your Bureau is thoroughly and
efficiently organized to adjudicate all claims
pending before it.
In view of the great number of claims now
pending, it must be evident to all that your
Bureau cannot take np claims for increase,
recently filed, without manifest injustice to
those whose claims were filed prior to theirs.
The magnitude of the work pending before
your Bureau, caused in part by the act of
June 27. 1st), and that which is being ac
complished in the granting of 28.000 to 30,
000 claim.-each month, can be better under
stood when it is remembered that, during
the last fiscal year of Commissioner Black's
administration of the Pension Office, only
113.173 claims were allowed and of that
number 51,S 0 were original claims.

Fram the Ne" York Tribune :
The project of converting Columbus Day
into an American school festival will be
heartily commended by thoughtful minds.
The dedication of the exposition buildings
an J grounds will be a National event of
crowning importance ; but in ordr to
e uphasiz: the significance of the discovery
of the new world and to render it intelligi
ble throughout the length and breadth of
the land it is proposed to make every school
fa juse a local center for commemorative exer
cises. This plan has received the sanction of
the World's Congress Com mis-ion and of
l'e A mcric-n Superintendents of EluCAtion
An eveeu.ive committee has been appointed
to organize a National movement by which
13.0,0"U school children in every village
aad town in a simple but effective pro
gramme on that historic anniversary. There
is nothing iicpraticable in the scheme. It
will only be necessary for every school to
have a Rag of its own to raise and salute on
the morning of the celebration, and then to
be prepared to listen to an address sad to
j;iu is singing an ode prepared for the occas
ion under the direction of the National
committee. A holiday will be put to the
highest educational nse if all the school
children of the country can be brought
together at the same hour to commemorate
the greatest event in the milira wjrll.
The public-school celebration on Columbus
Day is to be commended, not only a s
unique method of diiTaiing among local
centers of Aniericin Uh from Plymouth
Rick to tbeGldeu Gate the sigaincaace.and
spirit of a memorable anniversary, but also
as a practical expe Lent f r empha-iz'ng the
value of the m .l characteristic of National
institutions, the free school.

ridge east of Youngstown, Westmoreland
county, on Sunday. Orer l.'0 acres of the
most valuable timber in that Locality was
destroyed, and but for the promut action of
the people living in the neighborhood, hous
es and bams would have fallen prey to the
angy flames. The ties and other prepared
timber were the property of the poor moun
taineers, and iheirloss a winter's work is
great. The fire is believed Lobe the work of
an incendtary.

go a valuable imported bull. He bunted
sll orer the county for it, but to no purpose.
He even went to the tanneries and the sur
rounding towns to see if ae could find the
bide of the animal. On going out to feed
bis cattle on Sunday, he found his lost bull
snugly ensconced under s Lay rick that had
fallen over bim, and held him prisoner for
over two months. He had eaten quite a lot

First Women Delegates.
CtiEvi sjrs. Wyo May 5. Wyoming has
tlie d i rtlcclicn of being the first State that
ever el ected women delegates to a Nations
Convention. This was done by
republicans here yes.ter.Liy. They
the
are
Mrs. Theresa A- Jeukius scad Mrs.
G. C
Carleton.
The former is the best orator in the State,
well versed in the issues and akillfnl in
debate. She came here as a school teacher
L) years ago from Wisconsin, snd is married
to a prominent business man. She has
three children and manages her own house
hold, but finds time for political and literary
work. Her most notable appearance on the
rostrum was when the admission of Wyom
ing to the Union was celebrated here, she
made the speech of the day to over 10,0u0
people and made herself beard.
Mrs. Carleton is a business woman, as
sisting her husband, who is a lumber and
fuel contractor.
Not A Cent In The Treasury.
HrsTiGDo:i, May 7. This county ia now
without s single cent in its treasury, and
the County Commissioners are in a terieus
quandary as to what means to devise to
meet the county's run ning expenses. The
prospects sre that the two weeks' May term
of court, which convenes next Monday, will
have to be conducted with an empty treas
ury. The present legal limit of assessment
on real estate ten mills has been reached.
The Commissioners, however, in order to
decrease the county bonded indebtedness cf
tt05,eil, have decided to lay a special tai si
sessment of four mills, making a total assess
ment of fourteen mills.
The county's yearly expenses are increas
ing constantly, and the farmers, on whom
the special tax levy will most heavily fall,
are loud in a general protest. Real estate in
the county bears an assessment of about
three fourths its full value. The increase in
the county indebtedness is ascribed by the
Commissioners to the rapidty-growing crim
inal business iu the courts and to the build
ing of expensive bridges.
Good Luck Co mes Too Late.
Dxsrvxc, Cot., May 7. A striking example
of "what fools these mortals be," snd bow
easily men can be unnerved by bad luck,
came to light here to-day. Last Wednesday
morning a brief account was published of
the suicide of Charles S. Clute, who had
come West with the usual idea of accumulat
ing a rapid fortune, but who had fallen into
the lot of many an over-confident youth
who leaves comfort and friends in the East
under the hallucination that gold is to be
picked up in Colorado without the usual
grind of labor and patience.
Yesterday morning, two days after the
suicide, there came a latter from New York
State addressed to Mrs. Clute, the dead man's
young wife In it was contained the atate
ment that Mr. Clute had just fallen heir to a
small estate, and that $s,f0 in cash awaited
his order. It came.'however. too la'e. Last
nitjht the remains were shipped to tie
deceased's old home ia Troy, N. Y.
accompanied by Mrs. Clute,

Four. Years of Methodism.
The general conference of the Methodist
church is now in session st Omaha. The
episcopal address was delivered by Bishop
Foster.
The membership daring the past fonr
years Las grown rapidly and now numbeis
2,-"'-'.C:'l communicants ; 44:2.000 souls have
been added to the church during the four
years by comparison with four years preced
ing. Contributions to all missionary socie
ties have increased $331,130. "Higher educa
tion in the ministry is imperative and no
man should be allowed in our theological
schools whose loyalty to the doctrine of our
church is not steadfast. The church wants
no traitors.
" The church demands an i merican fran
chise, as weil as a naturaliz.-d franchise,"
said the Bi3hop. "The continuation of for
eign languages and customs in this country
is wrong, and we are opposed to the teach
ing of foreign languages in our schools. We
believe that the franchise shoulJ be more
guarded and foreigners should be rrquire1!
to serve a longer spprecticeihip to secure
it.
" We regard the legislation in Congress to
exclude the Chinese as inhuman, and we
pray Congress to not pass the measure."

Many Towns Flooded.
Fifteen towns in the Illinois and Fox Riv
er Valleys are under water and property of
the value of millions of dollars has been
swept away or destroyed.
It Las been raining almost incessantly for
four days. The rivers rose rapidly and the
volume of water now in the channels is
greater than in the big floods of 1874. Hun
dreds of thousands of fertile farming lands
in which crops have just been planted are
under wa'.er. Portions of Joliet, Morris,
Seneca, Marseilles and Ottawa, on the Illi
nois river, are inundated and manufactur
ing plants on the river hank carried away.
The climax of ths downpour came early
Friday morning, when a cloud burst occur
red over on the Illinois River Volley near
Ottawa. The Ro;k Island Railway tracks
ara submerged for twenty miles between
Seneca and Peru and no trains are running.
Northern Ottawa is a lake from four to eight
feet dsrp, extending westward along both
sides of the canal for nearly a mile.
