Our neighbor, the Press, in its last issue asserts that Congressman Taylor should work for the old veterans instead of trying to secure pensions for rebel sympathizers. What does the editor mean ? Wid he please state for the edification of the public just who that rebel sympathizer is, or will he hide behind the great blanket that covers all. Possibly the editor in his partisan, blindness would have the public believe that some democratic veteran or a widow of a soldier who had trainedwith the democrats, was an applicant for a pension. Give the boys and their widows, and those who gave up sons, liberal pensions. Some of the men about town would like to know just who the editor has referred to. Take care. “C. C. C. Certain Chill Cure*' is pleasant to take and harmless. Children like it. Guaranteed to cure Chills and Fever. Ao Cure—Ao Pay. For sale by Bergen, Oliphant Jc Co.
