Capt. A. W. Bal lew,‘whose care
in the Federal court is no w the
sensation of that tribunal, a full
account of details appearing in the
news column,| w«sin to see me
this afternoon and requests me to
say that he will give the Hustler
of Rome a history of the case tor
Sunday morin ng’s paper. A history
which will doubtleee make inter
esting reading matter.
I am personally acquainted with
Mr. Ballew and know every mem
ber of his large and interesting
family. Individually I like him
and have nothing but feelings of
respect and esteem for them. As to
his business, the one which has
gotten him into trouble—why that s
different.
My opinion all along has been
that A. W. Ballew had as much
right to half that Lucy Burrell
pension, as old Lucy had to the
balance—and that neither of them
had any right to one cent of it.
Why should the people, the hon
est toiling masses, North, South,
East and West be taxed to put
pension money, “patriot reward”
in the pockets of such people as
Lucy Burrell, old Sam Seay and
others of that stump who dwell in
■ this community?
*•*
And what exists in this com
munity I d<xrp fl.'urishe in
large number of communities in
the United States. There d übt
less are pensioners on the govern
ment rolls who det-erves every dol
lar the government pays them —
but I doubt if more than one fourth
of (he ml lions now paid out by
Uucle fEam is justifiable.
. * *
•
And lecause other communities
are drahiug the government of its
money u not sufficient reason why
our secton is justifiable in receiv
u g thesedisbonest dollars. lam
“idealistic” enough to believe
that robb ngthe government is as
much of ft rebbery as robbing a
bank, or a fanner who has sold his
cotton and ism his way home with
his cottontotio'lire. Let this pen
sioning of ‘“igtags and bobtails”
, stop, and mas the pension rolls
