The Devils Court.

This body met on Thursday,
Nov. 80, with his Plutonic majes~
tv Wells on the throne. and his
trusty helIchmen surrounding
him. A long protest from the de-
teated candidates of the city OF
New Orleans wds read, praying
the Board to throw out votes
enough to save them from pe,di>
ton. On this subject, involving
both the United States, State
and Municipal elections. Wells
desiled to hear argument and
gave each side al hour to dis
cuSS it.
The Parish Of East Baton
Rouge was taken up. The boxes
wLi.h the Board had had brought
from Baton Rouge containing
certificates Of the commissioners
which should have been given
TO the Supervisors, were not per>
united to be examined ana Wells
decided that the statement OF the
Supervisors was all that the
Board could examine. No errors
were made hy commissioners,
however, that were in charge OF
boxes which gave Radical m&jori-
ties.
In Baton Rouge therefore, sew
Ell boxes that gave Democratic
malorilies were thrown out, ba>
cause the commissioners appoint
ed by the Radlca! Supervisor did
not comply witb the lac, aud in all
probability because those same
commissioners were directed to
do so by the Supel visor himself.
This therefore changed a Demo
cratic majority in that Parish OF
6l5, to a Radical majority Of S74,
and the votes of 1888 citizens
were thrown away AS so much
trash. Evidence OF fraud was po-
tent upon the face OF the Snpervi-
sOrs protest showing that it was
not made on the date on which it
was dated.
On Friday the Board did not
have the encouraging smiles of
the Northern Republican visitors
to greet them. Stoughtou was
not present to explain how an
affidavit dated on the 25th of
November got into a package
sealed up Oh the 10th of the same
month. Anderson shook his am
brosial curls, pertaining the air
with sulphureous odors, and
moved that the seven boxes con
tanning the rejected returns from
East Baton Rouge DO brought
forth and examined, and his Plu.
tonic majesty made the order and
in they came and were examined,
when the Board promised to take
all those things into their pious
consideration. On Saturday the
Board received testimony from
both sides, and adjourned for the
purpose OF tabilating tho votes
and making their returuS.
On Tuesday the Board declar-
ell the result Of their election, CIV
ing Hayes IA majority Of 1927.
which was effected by throwing
out 1172O Democratic and 2Ol7
Republican votes.
Then his Plutonic majesty
Wells, blew his nose long and
loud. and Anderson shook his
ambrosial curls, and filling the
atmosphere with sulphureous
odors, adjourned their court and
sank gently down into that warm
kingdom, where their master was
a%nxlouSly awaiting his dutiful
subjects.
