Woodruf's testimony, and checks as
turned in by him in this transaction,
show that several high State officials and
twenty-five Senators out of thirty-three
(twenty.one of whom were Republicans
and one Democrat,) were paid, and by
adding the amount paid by Clerk Jones
of the House of Representatives as graf
i6cation checks to the sums paid by
Woodruff, including checks noG-endor-
sed and other payments, the startling
fact will appear that not less than $685.
500 was paid at one session on the pas
sage of one bill for printing, as BRIBEs,
and qualification. This bare statement
would be weakened by any further COM
ment on its enormity. But this is far
from being all. 1t further appears from
the testimony of Woodruff, corroborated
by the books of the Republican Printing
Company, also by LeGrand Benedict,
business manager of said company, that
the following additional sums were paid
out to secure the appropriation Of $751;
900 and interest, approved December 19,
