A. R. is now carrying a burden of charity which would have been lifted fron it If the Dependent Pension Bill had become a law. Certainly if the men and women to whom the Posts give their funds for relief deserve this from their com­ rades, they deserve it still more, from the Government. McEENRT, Htr Business and Busiiii# Men. Does it "pauperize" a veteran to re­ ceive help from his comrades of the G. A. R ? Does he become the "soum of the earth--yes, the very dregs," be­ cause in the extremity to which be has been reduced by disease be aeoepts aid from the men who stood in line of battle with him? If not, why is he ' pauperized" by receiving from the Government that which he earned by giving the best years ot his life to Its servioe f--National Tribune. Was there anything ia a man's sol. diering that makes him readier to ewear to a lie now than his neighbor who did not go into the army? If so, then they are right who claim that the soldiers generally are readjrto perjure themselves to get a'ridTCtltdus lltW pension. If, on the other hand, they are no more ready to commit perjury than other people, then it would fol low, if this clamor be true, that the whole American people are Uars under oath, and cannot be trusted to tell the truth where a few dollars a month can be gained by perjury. Pleasing pre­ dicament these slanderers of soldiers get themselves into, is it not*--Trib, From 1861 to the day of his dsath, amid the mighty battles and many marches of the Army of the Tennessee and In the days of peace I had the honor of a personal acquaintance and enjoyed the personal friendship of John A, Logan.

VANHOKNB,--Dear Sir: Accept my sincere thinks for the grand tribute paid to my dear hus­ band by your eloqaent lecture and re­ markable acrostic, so complimentary to his peerless character. Sueu appre­ ciation by you is most gratitylng to me. and I leel he has not lived in vain If his fe.Jow men will only remind the coming generation of bis deeds and true nobleness and great aohieved tuouls. Gratefully and Reepeetrully, MRS. JOHN A. LOGAN. In concluding our reviow of the "Business and Business Men of McHen­ ry,*' we shall commence where we left off last week, «nd will try not to miss any. We will begin this week with MANCF4CTUREBS OF CIGARS. In this line Barbian Bros., in Kel- ter's Block, probably lead anything of the kind in the county, or in fact in this section of the State. They com­ menced business here eight or ten years ago on a very small scale, and have gradually Worked their way up until now they are one of the pros perous and growing industries of Mo- Henry. They are now making twelve different brands of cigars and so pop­ ular are their goods becoming that they are sought after fey the smoking ublio far and near. They kee]» five 'men at work most of the limp, and find a ready sale for all they can make. Jos. fekovsky, next door to the post office, also manufactures cigars, and keeps a retail cigar and tobacco store, Re manufactures enough for his trade besides doing quite an ex­ tensive wholesale business, BESTAUItANTS. In the restaurant line we have four. L. D. Lincoln, in the Lansliig Block, west side, Mrs, Jos, Pekovsky, near the post office, opposite Bishop's mill, E, B. Perkins, in Kelter s Block, and at Locke's Home Bakery, near the iron bridge. All of these named are kept In drst class style, where warm or cold meals can be obtained at all hours, and fruits of ail kinds in their season, SHOEMAKERS. McHenry has three shoemakers, all of whom do a good business, notwith­ standing the fact that nearly all our stores deal in footwear of a!l kinds. Fred Schnorr. who occupies a build­ ing of his own, on the west side, is the oldest man In the business here. In fact, he might safely be called au old settler, as be has been in business many years, and has, and is still doing a large trade. John Strener, on the opposite side of the street, also oecupies a building found In his shop, He Is a good work- Fl »«»« .»• «• the advertised aocttowers. In this Fit- -" A The New York Sun of March 14 makes this statement In It* editorial columos: The rapidity of Mr. Cleveland's progress in political education has al- uiost equalled the quickness of his rise la public life. After he had vetoed the Dependent Pension Bill Congress was ready to pass it over the veto, but Mr. Cleve­ land sent for a great number of Cen- gressmen and gave them to under­ stand in the most emphatic manner possible that he"3didn't wish it passed, and that he would And out who were hii friends and who were not by the vote on his veto. The Presidential desk is said to have groaned under the passionate blows ot the Presidential hand lor the purpose of emphasizing the owner's desire to prevent the veto from being overridden. The success of these efforts was tuf- flcient to win over votes enough for Mr. Cleveland's purpose. But there Is a great difference between this moth ad of treating refraotory Congressmen and the policy of serene separation from Congressional action with whloh Mr. ClevoTana first thought to distin­ guish his -administration from those of bis predeoessors. However this change will bo regarded by maay as an man and is doing a lucrative business. John Hurrel, in the rooms over the pest oflioe, la the oenter part of the towu, is a first-elais workman, and all work entrusted to him, either repair­ ing or made to order will be promptly and satisfactorily done, BUTTER AND CHEESE FACTORY. Oatman's Butter and Cheese Factory oear Hanly's Mill, is ia a prosperous .*onditlon, and is giving good satisfac­ tion to its patrons. It is under the immediate charge of Moseley Buck- land, who is an experienced man at the business and keeps his factory in first class shape. They are now receiv­ ing about 8,000 pounds of milk daily. CLOVER DRYER. The clever dryer of S, S. Shepard A Son Is one of the growing industries ef this village and one which distrib­ utes a large amount of money among the younger portion of our population. This firm have fine new buildings for dryer, warehouse for storage, etc^ and are Increasing their business each year. They are preparing to do a larger bus iness this season than ever before. PHOTOGRAPHER. In this line McHenry has no oause to go away from home, as L. E. Bennett, the proprietor of the gallery over Perry & Oweu's store, we consider on e of the best photographers in the State, and the specimens of his work to be seen at his gallery will prove what we say. He has an experienee of many yeats and Is sure to give satisfaction. PAINTERS AND GRAINERS. H. H. Nichols, over Simes' blaok- smith shop, makes a specialty of sign and carriage painting, and It a first class workman. John Klelfgen, house aud sign paint­ ing. Also does graining, calclminlng, white-washing, ete. Can be found at bis residence. £. & B. B. Perkins also do painting of all kinds, both plain and ornamental and make a specialty of fancy sign paintlne. Geo. Curtis makes a specialty of house paioting and graining and also manufactures a mixed paint which is said to be a very superior article. THE M'HENRT BREWERT. The proprietor ef this institution* Gottleib Boley, has spent a large amount of money the past few years in repairing, changing over and im­ proving, and has now as well arranged a brewery of its size as can be found auywhere, and is produding an of lager beer second to none. L1VEBT STABLEI. ™- McHenry has two as good livery stables as can be found anywhere. H. £. Wlghtmaa'- barns are located near the Riversid use, and F. Aa Parker's at the Par«.> House. They both keep good rigs, aod also ran bus lines between the railroad depot and steamboat landing. # STEAMBOATS, The steamboat line between Mo- Henry and Fox and Plstaqua Lakes is now one of the permanent Institutions and brio^ « pleasure seekers to this village. Capt Walter Hill, the owner of tho teamen "Mary tiriswold" and "Maal^, laeoft- stantly working to make his aeeooiwfr- dalions more eomplete, and that IM succeeds in pleasing the pleasare*eeek« ing public is evidenced by his great popularity. He is now puttlog hie boats ia order for the early spring hunting and fishing. Another new steamer la expoeted to be put on the river this season, which will make the steamboat acoommoda' tions better than eyer. TOMSORIAL PARLORS. McHenry his three neat aad well conducted shops. George Roseabergof tl kMftMl i$ the east end ef town. H. L. Rounds' shop ean be found In Blake's Block, in the oentor of dm Til­ lage.

There is also a shop In oenneotion with W. A. Crlsty's pickle factory whloh turns oat work moeUf for that institution. DOCTORS. There are four of tfcll profession t* McHenry, vis.: Dr. H. T. Brown, Dr. C. H, Fegers, Dr. O. J. Howard and Dr. A* B. Ohllds. The three first named *"** and the last a Homeopathy. . , / LAWTERS. )*V'I McHenry being a peaceable village has but very little use for gentlemen of this profession, consequently F. K. Granger and H. C, Mead have no :rouble in attending to all of this kind of business that comes up.- y , LIVE STOCK DBALMFE ^ ". • ' This branoh of business Is aitlndecT to by F. K. Granger and C. T.
