Generals Beauregard and Early

\ card signed by the above is going the
rounds Of the press. One statement in it
strikes the reader as very peculiar. name
ly: .'that in managing a single number
drawing, if the Commissioners Of such a
lottery allow the ticket holder the priyi-
lege of calling out the number on his
ticket and have the tag or ballot with a
corresponding number on it shown him
in the presence Of the audience and then
placed in the wheel, such a lottery COM
pany resOrting to such practice proves
itself to be a Fraud This statement is
untrue and unworthy Of such gentlemen
VIII these Generals please say bow single
number lottery companies swindle; is it
not by simply having all tags or ballots
with numbers on them corresponding to
the numbers Of the tickets they have
sold. not placed in the wheel at all. Thus
if a man buys ticket with number 50 on
it. the tacOT ballot with IS on it is kept
out Of the wheel, so, Of course, the ticket
holder is bound to draw blank, because
his number is not represented in the
wheel at all, but suppose the holder of the
ticket asks to see the tag with 80 on it
placed i'm the wheel and he sees it done.
he knows then his ticket has a chance TO
draw prize. This certainly is the only
fair test of an honest drawing. Should
the ticket holder not be there in person,
he could write to some one. asking them
to call out his number and see it 20 in
the wheel. These Generals were brave
soldiers. and no doubt are honest in THEIR
lottery work. but they certainly are not
posted as what constitutes an honest lot
terry drawing and their statement shows
their ignOrance.-AdU.
