THE PARISH CONVENTION.
New ORLEANS. Aug. 6

81 ~ NEW ORLEANS, aug. b, 1916.
Editor Democrat---Permit me, as one
who feels % deep interest in the unity
and harmony OF our parish elections, to
express dissent from your suggestion OF
the time at which our nominating con-
vention should be held. G
There. are some crusading elements In
this parish whose existence depends
entirely upon dissensions In the Demo
cratic. Conservative party. They lie In
a sort OF political and moral torpor
during the whole canvass, waking up
only to scramble for positions at the
nominating conventions, but it Is only
when they and their friends fail to
crowd themselves into office by loud
professions OF devotion to the Democ-
racys or conservatism that they show
themselves In their true character, and
clammor for q ''third party to beat the
last ditchers." t8
1t is, perhaps, an admission bordering
on reproachfulness, that human weak
ness often tenpts men who sincerity de-
sire the overthrow Of Radical rule, To
join such movement, when they fail to
obtain that recognition from their own
party. that they feel entitled To, and
hence many "soreheads" are led astray
underline influences of personal ambi-
tion or resentment. 1t therefore seems
to me that as little time as possible
should be given, ia which those unfor-
tunate influences could organize any OPP
position to the regular ticket. One
month is sufficient to work for the
ticket, and the canvass OF the merits OF
candidates should precede Me nOnin0-
tt0t,s 1t IL too late afterwards. Let us
have our convention on the first Monday
IN October. Yours, @1c DEMOCRAT.

The New Orleans Democrat., 1876-08-05


For some time past there has been
certain individuals going round town
representing themselves us license col
lectors. aud victimiziDg the ignorant
classes. In this role. VIM. Sachs, u
young mnn Of twenty-six summers, has
reaped rich harvest, but now that his
crime has been discovered and the pre-
sumption Of his guilt great, the best
part of his life will likely be spent In
the Penitentlary.
On the 2Gth of June, Sachs repaired to
the store Of Joseph Haas, 800 Thalia
street. and representing himself TO be q
license inspector, obtained from him
the sum of $50. From J. G.. Helm, Ut
No. 22g Rampant street, this gay ana
festive youth obtained another $50 by
the same sort OF tale.
On the 3Oth day Of July, Sachs repre-
sented himself to Chas. krables, resid-
ing at 2e7 Rampart street, to be EN-.
rployed in the City Attorneys office, and
for the sum Of $50 he would settle his
license, The innocent Krables handed
over his shekels, and that s the last he
ever heard Of them.
Mr.. M, II, James. OF the Department
of Finance, hos also sworn out an atii-
davit, charging Sacks with having on
the Sd Of June, mt No. 80 DSouth Claiborne
street, obtained from one julia Dazet
$25. on the ground that he would settle
her license.
In each Of the cases Sachs always left
q receipt, and the parties felt secure
that they could carry on business, be
Loving that they had legitimate
license.
James NJ Pratt, an attorney at law,
was also arrested by the detectives,
charged with being tmpiicnted In the
swindle.
Sachs was interviewed by "a DEMOCRAT
reporter. and stated that he had been
employed about two months ago, by
james M Pratt, who stated to him
tSachs) that he was Acting Assistant
State Attorney, and that he wanted
him to collect city licenses, and that the
said Pratt agreed TO pay him ten per
cent for his trouble. He Immediately
went TO work and has collected from
seven different parties city licenses. He
always refunded the amounts collected
to Pratt, deducting his commission.
Day before yesterday some OF his
friends advised him to leave town, as
the detectives were looking for him. He
declined to go and was arrested.
Sachs, when arrested and brought
face to face with James Pratt, he asked
fifty dollars. Pratt answered in the
affirmative, but stated that it was q re-
ceipt for attorneys fee.
There being other evidences that
Pratt was connected with this job he
was also arrested. Pratt being interro-
gated by our reporter, stated:
That he had never had any business
transaction with Sachs, either directly
or indirectly. except about year ago,
when Sachs came to him and asked
him II he could not get an old woman e
license reduced, that resided near the
st. Louis graveyard; he said he could,
but as Sachs never brought any money
for attorney fees, he did not take the
case.
Mr.. Pratt further states that this is a
job put up by Sachs to cover his own
guilt.
Sachs, in default of $4,000 bonds, was
remanded to the Parish Prison.

MIR. NESTS BILL.

There was no additional proof fleces-
sary to establish the venality, treaehery
and corruption OF the man who assumes
to be the sole Senatorial representative
Of Louisiana. No man is more fully
understood and appreciated than West
Is by this community, as the most a1da-
cious barterer OF votes and patronage,
and unscrupulous venalst ever known,
even In the circles OF the corrupt party
whose representative he Ia. If such
confirmation were needed, however. 1t
will be found In his recent action III
the Senate, in shackling the small
appropriation OF one hundred thousand
dollars for dredging the bar of the Mis-
sissippi with the proviso that the money
should not be applied to dredging any
other pass IL eighteen feet Of water
should be obtained at the mouth Of the
river at South Pass. This proposition
means simply that the dredging at
Southwest Pass, the present safe and
certain exit for our shipping shall cease
when Mr.. Eads secures eighteen feetat.
LILO tOWeI DttI vi bu5 OOuOl JitsDo,
without regard to the water on
the upper bar, at the passes
where Eads finds his great difficulty In
establishing sufficient depth for the
demands OF our commerce. This Is to
be taken as q Congressional construc-
ton OF the contract Of Eads, that he has
executed his contract and become en-
titled to his money, II he can secure the
depth OF water required at the bar at
the mouth, leaving the upper bar at the
passes to be dredged at the expense OF
the Government. Meantime, 4, a.
good, safe and certain passage
at the Southwest Pass, made
80 by the dredging under Capt.
Howell is to be left, neglected and un-
dredged, to enable Eads to employ the
boats In helping him to do what he un-
dertook to do with his own means. No
wonder that so fragrant an outrage and
serious blow at the great commercial
interests OF this city has excited the in
dignation OF our whole mercantile pub
lie, and elected petitions OF protest and
remonstrance from all classes. We fear
that they will not reach Washington in
time to arrest and defeat the pernicious
scheme and action, so cunningly sprung
at the close OF the session by the cor
rupt schemer who devised it,. 81 +

was at work. Leaning over the wall
and glancing downward, he discovered
q respectable citizen, with his silk hat
