The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1890-09-24

Evidence has been produced be-
fore tho investigating committee to
show that the claims of veterans who
have no congressional influence are
neglected for months, aud sometimes
years, but that those claims which are
urged by Congressman are attended to
at once. From this it would seem
that favoritism rules in the Pension
Office. Raum, wishing to keep on
the right side Of Congressman, attends
to their requests promptly. In that
way he gains their good will and eS-
poets them to stand by him when he
gets into trouble. 1t is because he
has done so many favors for Congress
men, probably, that it is so Difficult,
to get thorough and unbiased inves-
t'gation Of the charges against him.

Office is gradually assuming tho pro-

Says the Ruston Caligraph: In a
recent interview Hon. n. G. Blanch-
ard OF the Fourth district says there is
an ;organized effort among the far
mers in his district to put out an oppo-
sing candidate for Congress. A meet
ing is to lie held ut Nntchitoches,
abont the first Of October with this
purpose to view. B. G. White, the
avowed Republican candidate for Con-
gress in the Fourth is now in Wash.
ington consulting wirh Qnay on the
situation as it is evident if the far
mers put ont candidate to divide the
Democratic vote strong chance will
be opened up to the Republicans to
run in their man. The move against
Blanchard is presumably on account
of his position on the sub-treasury bill,
though he says he made all the con.
cession possible in the premises at the
Alexandra convention.

The Great Cotton Syndicate.

A Montgomery, Ala, speciel to the
States SATURDAY. evening announced
that the Cotton Committee of the Ma
tional Alliance had perfected arrange
ments with q syndicate of European
capitalists to advance $50 per bale
upon 100000 bales of cotton at a
yearly interest of 4 per cent. Far
mers will be allowed to store their
cotton and, on the warehouse receipts,
the advance arranged for will be made;
but the farmer will have the privilege
Of selling the cotton at any time with
in twelve months.
If this be true, We arc likely to be
confronted with very interesting
movement in the business and finan-
cial world the measure of which it is
now very difficulty to take. Without
doubt, if the scheme is practicable, it
will, if judiciously engineered, very
materially raise the price Of cotton
and work, for the time being, to the
substantial advantage of the cotton
growers as we'll as to that of the syn
dlcate. 1t is probable, however, that
so much cotton kept out of the market,
beyond certain time, will so en-
nance the price of the staple as to
prompt the planting of vastly in
creased area of cotton next year at
home, and even lead to the opening OF
new cotton fields in foreign countries,
and thus, in a season or two, react dis
astrously upon the Southern planters
in prices lower than ever.
But, be that as it may, the scheme
is perfectly legitimate one, entirely
unlike the silly and demagogical sub,
treasury plan, and If carried into ope
ration, must inevitably result in, at
least, very great, even if temporary
advantage to the cotton plaaters.-N

Here is gossip from the New York
Ttar about well known quondam
citizen of New Orleans. "Addison
Cammack is back in Wall street
again, and does not show any trace of
his recent accident at Saratoga, where
he tell down flight of steps in front
of his cottege. Ten years ago Mr..
Cammack was a veteran operator, and
was known to all the "Street" as "Old
Cam" In the years which have in
tervened he has only seemed to grow
younger, and besides taking a more
commanding position as one of the
biggest factors in finance and specula-
ton, he has married and now has two
sons. Like a good many other sue
cessful Wall street men, Mr.. Cam
mack is a Southerner, a Louisianian, l
am told, although his adven. in Wall
street dates before the war. Count
less anecdotes are told of his GOODNESS
and nerve as an operator in the stock
