Grover Cleveland: “I return herewith without approval House bill No. 7979, entitled 'An act granting a pension to Jackson Steward.'”

I do hereby make known and proclaim that there is hereby reserved from entry or settlement and set apart as a public reservation all those certain tracts, pieces, or parcels of land lying and being situate in the State of Montana.

An act to amend an act entitled 'An act to repeal the timber-culture laws, and for other purposes.'

No feature of our pension laws is so satisfactory and just as a fair allowance to the widows of our soldiers who have died from causes attributable to their army service.

Though it seems to be clear that the consul-general should have professional aid in such investigation, that matter, together with the selection of the particular persons to act with him, properly devolves upon my successor in office.
