THE SOLDIER’S FRIEND. Democracy’s Proud Kecord on the Pension Matter. Nearly All Legislation Enacted by Democratic Congresses. AH the Laws Which Hare Proven Especially Beneficial to the Veterans and Their Dependents Have Originated In Democratic Hooses of Representatives. President Cleveland’s Record In Signing Private Pension Bills—A Magnificent Showing. Notwithstanding the persistent claims of the Republican party that it is the sole and only friend of the old soldier and the chief conservator of his interests, the United States statutes and the records of the pension office show that he has been better cared for by Democratic than by Republican congress. Democratic houses passed these acts which were approved by a Democratic president: Aug. 4, 1886—Increasing pensions of armless or legless veterans. March 19, 18S6—Increasing from §8 to sl2 per month the pensions of widows and dependents. May 15, 1886—Granting discharges to Missouri Home Guards. May 17, 1886—To correct records, en abling thousands of veterans, otherwise debarred, to secure pensions. Jan. 29, 1887—Giving §150,000,000 to Mexican veterans. June 7,lßßß—Granting arrears of pensions to widows from date of death of husband. Aug. 14, 1888—Relieving members of murine corps of technical charges winch prevented them from getting pensions. And all these bills originated in Democratic houses. Aug. 16, 1876—Issuing artificial limbs to veterans. Feb. 28, 1877—Increasing pensions of those who lost both an arm and leg. March 9, 1878—Granting pensions to veterans of the revolutionary and 1812 wars and their widows. June 17, 18'8—Increasing to $72 per month the pensions of those who had lost both anus, both legs, or both eyes. June 16, 1-SBO—Giving §72 per month to totally disabled veterans. March 3, 1879—Increasing to $37.50 per month pensions for hip joint amputation. March 3, 1879—Tne arrears of pensions act increasing the pension roll from §33,000,000 to §57,000.000 at a single bound. Dec. 21,1893 —Representative Martin's a<;t making a pension a vested right. Feb. 26, 1881 —Protecting veterans in soldiers’ home. July 14, 1892—Pensioning at SSO those requiring partial attention from others. Aug. 3, 1892—Granting pensions to army nurses. July 4, 18S4—Regulating fees of pension claim agents. The Indiana Record. United States Pension Agent Spencer for Indiana, upon the request of H. C. Bell, deputy commissioner of pensions, forwarded to that gentleman a statement showing the number of new names added to the pension rolls at the Indianapolis agency since March 4,1893, when the Democratic party came into power, and also the number of pensioners who have been reduced in rate or whose names have been dropped from the rolls in Indiana since that time. These reports snow that 3,902 new names have been added to the rolls in this state, and but 165 have been reduced in rate, and but 82 dropped from the rolls. So it will be seen that less than one in each county has been dropped, while an average of 42 new names in each county hare been placed upon the rolls and an average of less than two in each county have been reduced in rate. When it is remembered that there are over 68,000 pensioners residing in the state of Indiana it will be seen how clearly these figures show that the pent*>n r» of Indiana h;--.- not o vllmistreated by the administration. The total dropped and reduced is 247, distributed through 72 counties. Private Pension Bills. During the 24 years of uninterrupted Republican administration—Hl to 1885—2,001 private pension acts passed by congress became laws, an average of about 83 a ytar. During Lincoln’s administration, 41; Johnson’s, 431; Grant’s, 490; Hayes’, 303; Garfield and Arthur’s, 736. In the first, three years of President Cleveland’s former administration —IBBS to 1888 —out of 1,560 submitted to him, 1,369 became laws, more than 33 times as many as during Lincoln's four years, more than three times as many as Johnson’s four years, nearly three times as many as Grant’s eight years, four and a half times as many as Hayes’ four years, and nearly twice as many :•( tarfield and Arthur’s four years. The average yearly number of these private pensions acts which became laws under Cleveland’s former administration was 456, five and a half times the average annual number during the preceding Republican administrations. Thu Average Pension. In Indiana the average is 5,300 pensioners, receiving §900,264 per congressional district. In Ohio, 4,904, receiving §825,080 por district. In lowa, 3,464, receiving §561,437. Pennsylvania- 3.193, receiving §505,326. Illinois, 3,124, receiving §500,906. Massachusetts, 3,100, receiving §529,326. Wisconsin, 2.761, receiving §437,885. Rhode Island, 2,111, receiving §234,400. Minnesota, 2,329, receiving §375,205. The average number of pensioners in each congressional district in the United States is 2,711, and the average amount of pension paid in each congressional district is §-140,282. The pensioners in the state of Indiana ar» receiving annual average pensions equal to §169.87. In Ohio it is §168.25, in lowa §162.10, in Dlinois §160.34, Minnesota §139.81, Wisconsin §158.60, Penn-

sylvania §158.44 and in Rhode Island §111.04. The Democratic Record. During the four years of Democratic administration—from 1885 to 1889—over 80 per cent of all claims filed were allowed. During the preceding Republican administration the average was but 78 per cent, and during the last Republican administration (Tanner and Raum > only 67 per cent of the claims filed were allowed, notwithstanding the addition to the clerical force of the bureau of more than 400 persons. During the four years of Democratic administration — from 1885 to 1889 — §296,458,741.25 were paid for pensions, §15,500,000 more than were paid during the 15 years of Republican administration from 1861 to 1875, inclusive; and including the estimates for the fiscal year, Democratic administrations under Judge Lochren and General Black, have, in five years, disbursed §5,750,000 more than all the Republican administrations in the 20 years from 1861 to 1880, inclusive. The total disbursements for pensions since 1861 were in round numbers §l,730,500,000. During 16 years of that time, counting the present congress, the Democratic party in the house of representatives. under the leadership of Randall, Carlisle, Crisp, originated appropriation bills for 64 per cent of this 1 amount, in round numbers §1,109,000,j 000; while during 18 years under the control of the Republican party, but 36 per cent, in round numbers §621,000,000, were disbursed, or a net ratio of nearly 200 per cent in favor of the Democratic party. Soldiers of the republic, does this show the Democratic party has been ungeni erous to the heroic men who saved the i flag from tarnish or to their dependents? | Wherein have Democratic administrations been mimical to the pensioners of the nation? Partisan Republicans in their carping criticisms strive for politiI cal effect solely. How plain a tale will put the prevaricator down?

WHAT POPULISM MEANS. A TAX OF FIFTY BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON THE PEOPLE. Equivalent to a Tax *»7Ov on Each Man, Woman and Child In the Land. The Record of Really Insane Extravagance Made by the Populists In Congress. When the McKinley congress went into office Corporal Tanner remarked “God help the surplus.” That surplus, as j everyone knows, was quickly dissipated and hundreds of millions of dollars appropriated ahead out of revenues to be collected in after years. But even the reckless extravagance of the McKinley congress was but a drop in the bucket to what the country would have to face if the Populists were to be ? placed in power. Judging by the bills already introduced in congress by the Populist members all the property of the country would be required to pay the taxes made necessary by the first session’s appropriations of a Populist congress. Just look at the appropriations which the Populists would make and figure out if you can where the money , would come from to meet them: Representative Davie' biil to make loans to mortgage debtors and app >;>ri.< ' e$ 10,000,000,1*00 (Senator re tier lias a similar bill). Representative Ulovci’s bill to loan to states 50 per cent of the assessed valuation of property would appropriate 12,000,000,000 Representative Clove r’ mu n icipal loan bill would appropriate .... 10,000,000,000 Representative hem's banking bill would appropriate 1,090,000,000 Representative Hudson’s bill would appropriate 1,500,000,000 Representative Davis’ industrial army bill would appropriate.... 500,000,000 Senator Peffer’s charity bill would appropriate 6,300,000 Representative Boen’s internal improvement bill would appropriate, beside annual appropriations 500,000,000 Representative Boen’s bill to exterminate the Russian thistle would impropriate 1,000,000 Senator Peffer's rainwater bill would appropriate 20,000,000 Senator Peffer’s resolution for government ownership of mines, railroads, telegraph, etc., would require an appropriation of 15,000,000,000 Grand t0ta1550,507,390,000 Even this enormous sum does not in- I elude the amounts which it would be necessary to raise for the administration of these measures, in salaries,etc., which would amount to hundreds of millions more. These bills would put a tax of more S child in the United States. At that rate a Populist government would be a very expensive luxury indeed. As there is but about $10,100,000,000 of money in the world, it would be interesting to know where the balance would i come from to meet these appropriations. THE SECRET OF IT. Why Railroad Attorney Fairbanks Wants a Legislative Change. Charles W. Fairbanks, the railroad attorney of Indianapolis, is wandering up and ifi'Wn the good state of Indiana wiling tA? ."'iters who will consent to listen to him that the Democratic legislatures have been Extravagant, just because they have employed a full force of doorkeepers. Bat Mr. F air banks neglects to telhthom of tne tenfold greater expenditures made by the last Republican legislature of lininma for pocketknives, sta-tic-nory. hnoksj etc., which, were carried off* by the Republican members of the legislature. The real “tough little worm in his little inside” which most agitates the railroad attorney who aspires to rattle around in the seat that has been filled by Morton and McDonald and Hendricks | and Voorhees, is the Indiana tax law. That law compels the railroads—from ■ manipulating which Mr. Fairbanks has accumulated his millions, and from which his princely income is chiefly debear their just share of the taxes. The Republican party is pledged I to repeal that law if it returns to power lin the legislature. It is that “infamous I law,” as the Republican platform calls it, which worries Mr. Fairbanks. This law has already compelled the railroads of Indiana to pay in taxes over §7.000.000, and that much of a load has I been lifted from the shoulders of the taxpayers of the state. Mr. Fairbanks would very much like to be a United States senator. But he would very much better like to have the tax law repealed.

HOW TO VOTE. Points That Every Voter Should Bear In Miud. 1. Get your ballots of the polling clerk in the election room. No other ballots are permitted to be used. 2. Stamp within the large square containing the rooster and nowhere else. ' f J | S? X-'/. I. \ 11 pEUar* The stamp must be placed within or on the square or the ballot is void and cannot be counted. Do not stamp elsewhere on the ticket if yon stamp within the square at the head of the ticket-. 3. Do not mutilate your ballot, or ' mark it either by scratching a name off or writing one on, or in any other way, ! except by stamping on the square as before mentioned. Otherwise the ballot j will not be counted. 4. After stamping your ballots first I see that the ink from the stamp is thoroughly dried; then fold them separately so that the face of them cannot be seen and so that the initial letters of the names of the polling clerks on the backs thereof can be seen. Then hand your ballots to the inspector, the stomp to the [ polling clerk and leave the room. 5. If you are physically unable to stamp your ballots, or cannot read English. so inform the polling clerks and tell them how you wish to vote and they will stamp your ballots for you. But the voter and clerks must not permit any other person to hear or see how the ballots sire stamped. 6. If you should accidentally or by mistake deface, mutilate or spoil your ballot return it to the poll clerks and , get a new one. KETCHAM IS HOT. Thiuks the State Committee Is Trying to Dump Him. Reports from all the meetings through- ! i out the state are furnishing the Demo-1 prats much encouragement. The inter-1 est in the Democratic meetings is stead j ily increasing, and the mere announce- ■ ment of a meeting is sufficient to bring 1 out a crowd. The Republican meetings, j on the contrary, are not so well attend- I ■cd as earlier in the campaign. Railroad \ Attorney Fairbanks has recently been ; i greeted by empty benches at. Rushville I and other points, and Mr. Ketcham, the I I candidate for attorney general, has had , : such small audiences that his friends , ! are accusing the state central committee ' j of throwing cold water on his campaign. Ketcham’s nomination was very distasteful to the central committee and to Harrison and Ketcham knows it. Naturally he feels that they are working against him secretly to prevent him becoming too prominent in the state. It is requiring the utmost efforts of the “conciliators” to prevent an open rupture between Ketcham and the com- ; mittee. HARRISON VS. M'KINLEY. The Oilloan Makes the ex-Prealdent Decidedly Nervous. The presidential contest of 1896 got , all mixed np with the recent McKinley i demonstration in Indianapolis. At first, i it will be remembered, Harrison announced that “an important law case in l New York” would prevent his attendi ance at the meeting. This raised all 1 manner of a rumpus in the camp of the ' faithful. The McKinley people who, by the way, are very strong in Indiana, . raised an awful row. They declared in , away that made perfectly clear the fact . that they meant it, that if Harrison attempted thus to snub his great rival and - throw cold water on the demonstration • in his honor they would immediately . prAoeed to lay for the scalp of the afore- > said Beu Harrisou. Party leaders labored with the ex-pres- , ident to induce him to alter his determij nation, but to little avail. Finally Dan } Ransdell, the old head of the “Slick Six,” took the matter in hand. Nobody

ever gets very close to Ben Harrison, but Rans<lell gets elwr than anybody else. Ransdell helped Dudley always in managing Indiana campaigns, according to approved Dudley and “slick Six” I methods, ar d Harrison has great cc i.fi- 1 dence in him. Ransdell used arguments j that the otter mediators hadn't thought , of. Mr. Harrison was told very plainly i that unless he appeared at the meeting i McKinley would lx> given a great boom , for the Indiana delegation to the next national convention; that if he-Karri-1 son) consented to presid■> at the McKin-. ley meeting, he instead of McKinley would get the demonstration and McKinley, seeing this, would cease his attempt to capture the Indiana vote in the next convention. Th is tickled Harrison’s vanity and the “import tnce” in Idvnly evaporated from ; that New York law ease. And Harri- j son presided. But a bitter disappoint- j ment awaited him. The applause which ' greetixl him when he took the chair was - brief and formal. He spoke only a few i minutes, but his audience was restless 1 and cold: it smiled half-heartedly at his I alleged jokes and passed by unnoticed \ what he meant for his telling points. | There was a little applause at the close - of the ex-pn-sident's speech, bui it had the earmarks of being merely an expres- , sion of relief that the speech was done and that the real treat of the day was at ■ hand. But when McKinley stepped forward i the audience went wild with enthusi- I asm. The ex-president nestled nervously ■ in his chair and his ashen face grew ! paler asif hi wi re suffering from a colic. ' It was the first time that his intense I egotism hail jx-rmitted him to realize ' the fact that hi- was no limgi r the idol of the Republicans of Indiana. When Ransdell saw the miscarriage of his plans he quietly sneaked out the back door and has studiously avoided a meeting with Harrison ever since. Harrison is sulky and morose, and an air of general discomfort has d&racterized the Republican committeeroomsall week. THE M'KINLEY MEETING. A Good Deni of a Fizrie When Everything Is Considered. Republicans at the state capital are not half so well pleased with the McKinley meeting of Tuesday as they might, have been. In fact, they may be described in the language of the Bowery as being “dead sore.” There is much reason for

their discomfort,too. In the first place, all things considered, the meeting was not a howling success, though McKinley’s speech was one long howl of the calamity varii ry. For no political meeting ever held in the state were greater efforts made to get out a crowd. Low excursion rates were secured on all the railroads and members of clubs were carried free at the expense of the committee in order to make a showing. Bands were hired and every effort made to drum up enthusiasm. After th, w herculean efforts it was small subject for surprise that the Republican managers were disgusted at the small turnout. There were little “pointers” in the failure, too, which had a very disquieting effect on Republican nerves. Chief among th -se v,m the failure te work up anv in those sections ot Vie state where the old Gresham element is most powerful Take Fort Wayne for example. Special efforts were made to get a crowd from < that point. The best Umd in the city Was hired and transportation was offered all who would cmne to Indianapolis But when the Fort Wayne delegation ' got off the cars it was found that just 18 people lined up behind the band of 20 pieces. The manufacturing towns of the gas belt also failed to contribute the expected number of enthusiasts and al- I together the much heralded “demonstra- ; tion" came very near proving a fizzle. The Benefit Universal. While it is true that 5,000 windowglass workers will have to struggle along under the new tariff law making perhaps not more than S2OO to S3OO per month 70,000,000 people will get the benefit of cheaper windowglass.—Anderson Democrat. — Whisky Trust Knocked Out. The new tariff bill, far from being in the interest of the whisky trust, is rapidly knocking the bottom ont of that giant corporation. Shares of whisky trust stock are now quoted lower than-’ they were ever known before.
