Military and Civil Pay Disparities Across Civil Government
A critique notes fixed high salaries for Army generals dwarf civilian pay, highlighting Secretary of State at 8000 dollars and Supreme Court Chief Justice at 6000. It argues rewards favor military over civil officials and cites Grant’s stance on gold payment for prewar enlistees. The piece also accuses banking interests in Congress of bank concessions while praising a reward claim by a veteran linked to the Davis capture.
