La Toilette Fights "Blocks-of-Five Dud-

In the November American Magazine,
United States Senator La Toilette writes
the second instalment Of his autobiog-
raphy. II is a lively picture OF the
great insurgents fight against private
interests in Congress in the SOS. He
writes:
1T was in my second term that |

session before the presidential campaign
OF 1888 an effort was made To pass the

ing this bill. One day we received an
invitation to visit Senator Sawyer in
his committee room at the Senate end
OF the capitol and did so. When we ar.
rived we found Senator SAWYER and the
famous Colonel William w. Dudley alone
together. Dudley was chairman of the
executive committee OF the national Re-
publican committee. He was a most
genial man personally. brave soldier of
the Civil war, who left leg at Gettys-
burg. But he was an old school pol
itician and practical 1t was in the
following campaign that the colonel ac-
quired the title of 'Blocks-of Five Dud-
ley through the publication Of letter
to an Indian follower giving minute in
structions as to how voters should be
rounded up, watched by faithful lieu
tenants and voted in blocks of five'
when we entered the room, Sawyer
said:
Il have called you boys over here to
talk with you about the Nicaraguan cam
al bill. | hear you are agin it. Now
that bill is all right, and ought to pass.
Dudley here knows all about it. Dud-
ley, you tell the boys about it,
Colonel Dudley argued that it was
very essential that the measure then
on the House calendar should pass be-
fore the adjournment of the session.
Not meeting with any favorable re-
Spouse from Haugen and myself, he fl
nally appealed to us in the interests of
the Republican party, and stated that
if the bill were permitted to pass be-
fore the adjournment of Congress, the
parties interested in the canal would
contribute one hundred thousand dol
lars to the Republican campaign fund.
Having understood that Phil Thomp-
son. member of the Democratic ma
tional committee, and an ex-representa-
tive who had the privilege of the floor,
was active in behalf of the same meas
ure, / asked Dudley what the Demo-
Gratis expected if the bill passed, and
he frankly admitted that there would
be a similar amount contributed to the
Democratic national committee. i jok-
ingly suggested that if the Democrats

were to receive like contribution, one
would offset the other. Dudley replied
in the same vein, that Republicans had
"a lot more sense than Democrats in
spending their campaign funds, and then
proceeded seriously to explain that a
plan was afoot by which the Republic
cans hoped TO carry Delaware; that in
Delaware at that time only persons own
ing real estate could vote and that it
was proposed TO use this fund or a part
OF the fund to buy tract of swamp
land, and parcel it out among the la
boring men so as to qualify them as
voters. We stated that it was mat
ter of principle with us, and that We
should not withdraw our opposition to
the bill
"The bill did not pass at that session.
1t did pass with some amendments in
