Old Soldiers Pensions
It is to be hoped that who
eyer may go to the legislatnre
from Pickens county, will joi
with our old nembters i ftryiw
to get a pension for all the Old
soldiers.
It is clear to ally one who will
study the matter that the pres
ent plan of paying pisionis to
old soldiers anl their wvilows is
not giving satisfact ion. In fact
it is not right: it is not just, and
the law as it nww stands should
be abolished and a law passed
to give all old soldiers a pension,
h it ever so snall. Any man
who served in the war ought to
have his share, and have it
along lines of justice and equal
ity. hlow would this do: The
man who servel one year, pay
him one dollar per month or
$12 a yeoar; the man who serv
(d t wo years, pay him $24 a
year ; the man who served three
years, pay him $36 a year, and
tli man who served four years,
iay him $48 a year. And when
the soldier lost an arm, leg, eye
or was disabled in any way, pay
him something extra.
Some may object because of
the taxes, but when you think
of what the old soldiers have
donse; what they have suffered,
and what we are because of'
what they did and suffered, we
ought to be willing to be taxed
in order to show themn some ap
preciation for the services th) ey
have rendered their state.
