The Great Fraud.

The following is the statement
OF Mr.. Dupre, the managing edi-
tor of the N. o. Democrat, which
was offered in evidence before the
committee appointed to investigate
charges of corruption against mem
bers of the House of Representa-
tives. The statement was expunged
from the record under the ruling of
the committee "that the resolution
OF the House under which they
were carrying on these investiga-
tons did not authorize them to 90
further back than the present
year"
In the early part of the year 1877,
the Democrat was made the official
journal of the State of Louisiana.
after having been the official organ
of the Democratic party during the
campaign of 1875.
One day in the month of March.
1877, think, / was introduced to
MIR. John A. Morris, the senior
partner, | believe, of G. T. Howard
and others, proprietors of the Lou
isiana State Lottery Company.
This occurred on the race track of
the Louisiana Jockey Club. sub
sequently met that gentleman sew
eral times at the same place. Mr.
Morris sought my company. He
possesses a very pleasing manner
and ready address. Our inter-
course eliminated in a dinner party
by Mr. Morris at Moreau's restau-
rant on Canal street, The party
consisted Of eight or ten gentlemen.
Mr.. Morris placed me at his right.
During the course of the dinner
MIR. Morris asked me abruptly and
in low tone of voice, why it was
that the Democrat would not print
the advertisement of the Louisiana
Lottery Company and without wait
ing for a reply, MIR. Morris went
OH to state what he had done to-
ward bribing certain Radical men,
bers of the Senate and House. He
said he had bought Senators De-
mas, Allan and Breaux and Repre-
sentative George Drury, with two
or three others, whom be styled q
ring that George Drury controlled.
Mr.. Morris 81 ,imed that this nc
ton placed the Lottery Company
IN position to claim the gratitude
of the party in power and that the
Democrat, as tho official organ Of
that party, should not refuse to
advertise the Lottery Company,
nor should it write against it. MIR |
Morris told me of large sums of
money which the Lottery Company |
had spent for the relief and support |
of certain papers, mentioning par
the New Orleans Pickay-
une ana the New Otleans Bulletin.
MIR. Morris offered me, in a round
about, hesitating manner, to aid
the Democrat under the same con-
dition, that is, provided l would
to insert in the Democrat
the advertisement of the lottery L
,hereupon rose from my chair, re-
oelling at the same time Mr.. Nor
rs proposition. Whereupon Mr..
Norris profuse5 apologized for
what he styled my misunderstood
Dg of his intentions, stating that
he most he meant was a plain BUS
ness proposition.

And Down With Washburn and

The announcement that Hon. Ignatius Dom
nelly would address the Donnelly club last
evening created great interest in political cir
clcs. and it carly became evident that the hall
OF the club would be insufficient to contain the
crowd that would throng to hear him. As
early ~ o clock people began to arrive, and
in less than half an hour the hall WA densely
packed so that entrance OF egress was only eff
fected with difficulty. Many hundreds Of peo-
pie who desired to hear Mr.. Donnelly, but
came tue late. were obliged to 30 away reluc-
family. without being Rrati6ed. The Open
House. from Oct. lst to election day, did not
have = vacant night, and Music hall was other
wise occupied last night, hence it waa impos-
sible to secure larger hall, cligibly located.
A Mr.. Donnelly' other engagements prevent
ed his giving another night to St. Paul. there
was no alternative tut to hold the meeting last
night in such quarters coulc be secured.
This explanation is due the hundreds Of per-
sons who were unable to gain admission to the
hall last night.
GLIDING those who remained . short time 1t the
door and On the steps and sidewalk outaide. but
gave up their places to Others, there must have
been fully |. 900 people who visited the club
rOoms, during the evening. They were all in
teliigent. industrious and well-behaved citi-
xcns who came 10 inform themselves Of The po-
litical issues Of the day. Throughout they
listened with great interest. and were nut 1t al

About four weeks are required to

of the pickles "sold in glass jars, is

Rain water brings down yearly

Flower pots that are dirty, upon be-
