While Mason's offense is looked upon as one of thehighebt of military crimes, that of a sworn guard attacking a defenseless prisoner, most military men sympathize w'th him, and feel that he has had sufficient punishment for his crime. The President in pardoning Sergeant Mason has simply responded to a popular sertiment that had in it the force and dignity of a demand. The whole question has been considered from every possib e standpoint, and the voice of the people, aftei all had been said and done, was almost unanimously in favor of pardoning the man who had tired at Gui teau.

The Commissioner of Pensions,

General Dudley, believes the publication of the names ef all penaiyn,ers wss not a wise, measure, As it veif the pension attorneys of A ashington City an opportunity to reach ach one of them with a flood of circulars, and says they are working their full office forevs night and day in mailing them to pensioners. He estimates that each pensioner drawing less than 20 per month will re ceive from five to tifty circulars, from claim agents, urging him to apply for an increase. He warns pensioners Against being misled by the Reductive circulars, unless they fteol absolutely certain that they are not receiving their just dues at present, as a re-examination may result in a decrease instead of an increase in the pension already being received. The Commissioner ndorres the suggestion that the G. A. R. and similar organizations should go over the lists of names in their dis

tricts, and ascertain, if possible, whether or not anv on the list were
