New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-10-09

| MANY persons are trying to WIN prize in
the shape of good fat office by figuring for
a nomination from one Of the political CON
| ventsons now in session in this city. AS
| this is a free country, no one should object
| to persons trying their fortune in any law
ful way they may, judge to be best If a
1uan is willing to take the chances of OBJ
tanning tat office and risks his time, which
is money, in pipe-laying for q nomination
that is his own business, if he loses; and if
ne wins, it is quite possible it may be the
business of somebody else. But viewing
the chances of fortune in another light
wherein the public are not so directly inter
ested as the individual who risks his money
for the prospect Of gain it is but reasonable
to judge that the Louisiana State Lottery
offers far better chance for prize than
any of the conventions spoken Of above. In
the next single number drawing of the
Louisiana State Lottery there are over 400
prizes, The principal of these prizes
amounts to the snugI sum of $50, 1000, and
many Of the other prizes are Of sufficient
magnitude to make a person comfortable
for life without an Office it is therefore
much more rational TO purchase a ticket in
sthe Louisiana State Lottery. and take the
chances Of drawing prize there, than to
take the chances of obtaining prize by
seeking nomination for fat office. This
is said without intending to cast any slur
upon the conventions now in session in this
city. The next single number drawing of
the Louisiana State Lottery will take place
next Saturday and this should be religious
" remembered by all who would have a
chance to win one of the many prizes that
will be offered to the public on that day
Here is a far better place to invoke fortune
than by seeking it in political conventions
of the present day.

Tonight the grand combination fair re
opens in Mechanics Institute, and many
additional attractions will be added to
those which made the fair so successful last
week. The Dunn Cadets are to attend in a
body with their band and cast their votes
for the splendid oil portrait of General
Grant that is being contended for by the
ward clubs. A gold-headed cane is to be
presented to the minister receiving the
largest number of votes.
A large company of our best amateur
dramatists and singers are praeticing to
give an exhibition and concert on Monday

Let the many who have patronized this
fair continue in the good work, and let
thousands who have not yet cast their mite
into the good cause do so without fail

1t is conceded by Colonel Forney and
Colonel Mcclure that Hartranft is elected
in Pennsylvania. He has kept we'll up
with the balance of the Republican ticket,
and his fnajofity is estimated at from O,000
to Is 200.
Indiana, which by many it was supposed
would elect Hendricks, the Democratic can
didate for Governor, does not show, as vet
a decisive result. The returns are meagre
the ticket long, and the results come in
slowly.
Nebraska, which gave Grant majority
of 1920, has now proved true TO the faith of
1868, and again unites her destinies with
the fortunes of the Republican party of the
Union. The last hope OF the supporters of
Greeley has been crushed by the result
in Pennsylvania where shrewd poll

hosts. The effect will be the speedy disrup-

The Geneva Award-It Will Cover the
Claims.

This is special to the Chicago Tribune:
New YORK, October 3-Mr. John A. Par.
ker writes as follows to the Journal of Com
merce: 81 have been asked if the sum
awarded by the Geneva Board of Arbitra-
ton is sufficient to cover the fair and bona
tide claims tor spoliations of the property
of American citizens by the privateers. On
examing the whole premises, l think the
award is sufficient. The aggregate of
claims filed in the State Department for
depredations of three vessels is ST.. .765 065.
Of the above claims there are about $4,000,-
600 of purely consequential damages for the
breaking up of the voyages, prospective
catch Of whalemen, etc., not allowed by the
arbitrators. There will also be found
large amount of claims twice made by own
ers and insurers, and a further large
amount Of over valuations of vessels and
claims of gross freight, instead of net
freight, not allowed by the arbitrators, and
in addition to these there will be found
number OF claims actually fictitious and
worthless, the whole thus reducing the
bona tide claims as allowed little below
$ll,OOO,OO0 The interest on this sum for
nine years at six per cent is $5,490,000,
which, together with these sums, equal
$l6,940,000, the amount of claims and inter
est, At the present rate of gold, SIS, 5000 900
would yield a premium of $1,875, 900. To-
gether these sums equal $l7, ,375 900 in cur
renoy, to pay $I6,94o,000, claims and inter
nat y
