FREELAND, PA., JANUARY 2, 1893.
Cumulative Bounties.
Pension rapacity goes forward by
arithmetical progression. What is rash
or doubtful this year may be precedent
next year. During the Cleveland ad
ministration, in a burst of belated gen
erosity, a law was passed giving to dis
abled Mexican veterans $8 a month,
without stipulating that their disabilities
should have been acquired in the
service.
This unfotunate piece of legislation
was the precursor of the disability bill,
which has swamped the treasury by
making similar provisions for all the
soldiers engaged on the Union side in
putting down the rebellion.
The disability bill raised the rate of
pension from $8 per month to sl2 per
month. This, in turn, furnished the
excuse for the bill which passed con
gress last week raising the pensions of
the Mexican veterans from $8 to sl2.
It is pleaded with some show of jus
tice and fairness that if one soldier be
entitled to sl2 per month for disabilty
growing out of any cause whatever, it
is not fair to put another soldier off
with $8 when it only costs a bagatelle of ]
one million dollars per year to establish
equality.
But why should a soldier's disabilities
incurred in the ordinary pursuits of life
entitle him more than any other man to
a place on the pension list? Is it not
the duty of citizens to give their services
to the country in the emergency of war?
Mußt men be paid for having done their
duty when they are no longer serving
the country, and pensioned for hurts
and hindrances not in any way con
nected with the public service?
It was an ill day for the country when
congress yieled itself to the solicitations
of the pension agents; and no time
should be lost in providing for such a
revisal of the pension list as should,
while continuing to recognize fully the
just debt of the country, put an end to
the debauchery of patriotic sentiment
and prevent the loading down of the
nation with a staggering, unwieldy and
incalculable indebtedness.— Record
Harrison's Idea of Prosperity.
President Harrison, in his recent mes
sage to congress, called attention to the
great prosperity of the country, and
wondred why the people wished to
make a change in the system of govern
ment. The following news item in a
New York paper on Thursday ia a sam
ple of what Harrison called prosperity:
There was a long line of men, women
and children standing in the main hall
of the department of charities and cor
rection building yesterday, waiting to
put in their application for coal. They
will have to wait until after New Year
before they can get any coal. There is
not a single ton at the disposal of the de
partment for the relief of even the most
pitiful case of destitution and suffering.
Superintendent Blake said today that
the department had a very small amount
of coal on hand at the begining of the
winter, only 200 tons, and that this had
been distributed in portions of a half a
ton. There are already on file applica- \
tions for about 2500 families, and more
are coming in every day.
After January 2, however, the depart
ment will have 3000 tons at its disposal
for relief purposes, hut some of this will
be saved for tne early part of next win
ter. Superintendent Blake said: "The
greatest suffering is on the East side
below Fourteenth street. These poor
families have to buy their coal by the
pail or scuttle ful for which they pay 10
cents, or at the rate of over sl6 a ton,
and as many families cannot afford to
buy much at this rate great suffering is
the consequence."
BECAUSE the Reading Company has
given the Hazleton shops an order to
build four or five engines one of the
newspapers there is predicting wonder
ful things for that town, and even goes
so far as to prophesize that Hazleton
will be a second-class city, providing the
cranks and growlers will give it a
chance. The cranks and growlers re- 1
ferred to are the opponents of the Read
ing combine, and to its credit Hazleton
possesses a great many of these. It is
not likely that an order for a few en
gines will satisfy the latter people or
cause them to become worshippers of
the P & R. Hazleton, in the past ten
months, haß suffered too much at the
hands of the Reading management to
have its citizens' opinion changed by an
insignificant bribe like that.
