WAS CONGRESS BRIBED +?

The st. Louis Democrat openly charges
that the passage Of the Fort st. Philip
canal bill was procured by bribery and
corruption of the members. This is a
little hard on most Of its own chosen
representatives as having been opposed to
the canal, voted for it at the last moment
But we think the st. Louis Democrat will
not be shocked by the spectacle Of Sem
ate purchased to vote on the same bill
We are confident it will pass the Senate,
and without the slightest imputation upon
the integrity of that body!
We will give some reasons for this just
tribute to the Council Of States"
We are informed by the Democrat that
the fund for achieving this purchase on
the side of the Fort st. Philip canal con-
sists Of couple of thousand acres of mud
flats, sometimes, according to its oppo-

We should judge this fund must have
been exhausted in buying up more than
hundred and forty members. There can
not be much more left to buy up Senators,

The time is near at hand when political
clubs will be formed by the elements op-

what this large army of Office seekers do
not want, but are very much in the dark
as to what they do. If there is any ''para-

it proclaimed. But as they declare them

for reform give US an inkling of the kind
of reform they mean. If there are any
among them who have any practical sug-
gestions to make respecting public policy,
We hope they will step forward, raise their
banners and show their hands If they
want to reorganize the scattered fragments
of the old Democracy, We have no objec-
ton to their making the attempt, only
the Old Line Wings, the recent adherents
of the American party, temperance men
