"Several petitions have been received by the State pension hoard, asking that the fund he I distributed as soon as possible to tho poor, needy veterans and widows. Tho delay in the matter of paying out the pensions is <;en orally supposed to be the fault of the State board and this state uient is made with a view to ex ! pitting a few of the difficulties with which we have to contend So far only thirteen counties out of forty have sent in their rolls; after the rolls are received here, ' they have to he cheeked over with last year's rolls, and in neaelv every case in my old pensioners are left off. Wo then have make a list of them and send hack to the county hoard a asking for information, and frequently wait | several weeks before we receive lit, as the hoards are scattered; | besides this, we have to return | many applications which are defective for correction. In many counties pension township hoards have had no meetings yet, a t we cannot hope to receive the last I rolls before the latter part of April, if then. In one county there were forty five old pen sioners unaccounted for, and it bus taken two weeks since the roll was checked over and the names sent to get the proper in? formation concerning them, and this is one of niauy instances; if we copied then'olls in the condi tion in which they are received, ; we would bo doing groat injustice to the pensioners, as by inquiries regarding those left off we invariably tind thoy were overlooked and should have been reported. When the rolls nrr tinu 11 v in, ami after considerable work done on them here, in proper order, it is then necessary to make out to pay rolls. As there were over 7,00<> pensioners last year and likely to ho 500 more this year it is a matter of considerable time and work to write out the pay rolls for the clerks 01 court. We then send them to the chairman of the county board to verify and then only are w? prepared to pay out tho pension fund." TUT TH BOBBIN(1 IIK AII AtHE Would quickly loavo you, if you used I)r.
