Honor to Whom Honor is Duc ,
' 1'wo weeks ago the Rm'unr.IcAN
published an item to the cffect
that "The onicials of the pcnsion
onice thinl < they have discovered
in Lyston D. Howc , of Sfreator ,
m. , the ; youngest voluntecr of
the civil war. He enlistcd in
1861 , when only tcn years and
nine months old. " ,
' 1'0 this "statcment Comrade J.
J. Douglas of Callaway , takcs .
exceptions and writcs as follows ,
"Now , this question was
argued pro and con in thc Chicago -
cag-o Inter Ocean a few ycars .
ago , and I think , wa finally !
decided in favor of my friend ,
Gilbert Vau andt , of my ncigh-
borhood in Ohio , and as I was
acquainted with "Gib , " as he
was called , I write this in his
defense , thinldnk it may be of
intcrest to some , and especially
to the old soldiers. He was ten
years , seven mon ths and sixteen
da's old when he enlisted Aug-ust
( .th , 1862 , in Co. D , 79th Ohio
Volunteers , in the little village
of Port William , Clinton county ,
Ohio. He enlistcd as a drummcr
bo ) ' . His discharge at the close
of the war describcs him as I'a
soldier 13 years old and four feet
high. " He has documentary
proofs to show his agc , the time
of his enlistment and dischars-e ,
and interesting- letters that tell
what he did as a soldier. He is
now living with his widowed
mother in Kansas City , and is a
member of the Faragut-Thomas
Post G. A. H. of that place. He
still has the old battered drum ,
he carried when he cnlisted. He '
also has an old sword t.hat was
! { iven him while in the arml'
II served as dispatch carrier 111
the Atlantic campaign from Atlanta -
lanta to the sea , winding up at
Washington. He was in all the
t1gagements his division fought
in. He was in the grand parade
in Washington at the close of
the war and there he met Andrew
Johnson , president of the United
States. He waS riding a bcauti-
ful pony he captured in Georgia
and as all such propcrty belonged
to the governmcnt , he was sup-
? osed to gi c the .pony up , bu
mys he went personally to. the
president to ask to be allowed to
: etain it. He took an interest
In the boy and askcd him many
questions , and , wan ted to , know
\vhich he cared more for , the
pony or a commission. He said
the pony , and it was given him ,
with transportation for it to his
home in Ohio. He kept it tilt
it died , which was several years
after the war. ' !

Congressman Ernest H. Pollard -
lard , of this state , through the
return of $1,8&5 in back salary ,
has managed to worry Uncle
Sam's financial experts as to
whilt to do with the money ,
They cannot lcgally accept it ,
for there is no fund to which it
can be creditcd , and at the same
time the Nebraska Congressman
refuses to take it back. 'l'he
$1,865 r presents salary from
March 4 to July 18 , 1906 , paid
to Mr. Pollard , who was elected
in the latter month to succeed
lr. llurkett , who was elected to
the Senate. Mr. Burkett did not
I I-- r-
that timc , for he wa.s c1raw- '
ing his salar ) ' as Senator. ' 1'he
law provides that a Congressman
shall be paid from the time his
predecessor's .resignation was
madc , and thus Hepresenta.tive
Pollard is clcarly cntitled to the
monc ) ' . IIowe\'er , thc fact that
he accepted the cash without
having actually earned it' was
used against him in the campaign -
paign , but imlllcdiately after
election he returned the money
in ordcr to convince the voters of
his good intentions. But what
is. the government going to do
with the money ? 'l'he problem
is turning gray the hair of certain -
tain governmcnt onicials and
onicers of the House of Heprc-
scntatives.
Knicht ErrAnt of Tnriff Rcform.
Whether Mr. Bryan tal1es about
the 'l'ariff or keeps quiet on that
matter the record is made , and if
things so turn as to make him
ag-ain the Democratic presidential
nomince the country must once
more face squarely the determination -
nation by the Democratic party
to ovcrturn the existinb' economic
advantages in the form of the
marvelous industrial develop-
mcnt of the county , the unpar-
al1eled growth of our foreign I
trarl and the general prosperity
of the pC9ple. In all probability
the fight will turn chiefly on that
issue in any event , but it will be
additionally ficrce with Mr.
Bryan as the Democratic stand-
al'd bearcr , for in his party's
frantic etTorts to have the countr ) '
forgct his cheap currency championships - . .
pionships it will reclouble its . -
to prove him a lmight crrant of
