to him that on various occasion he
had bean getting presents of various
ktMmp much money from the whis

dispensary purchasing board. Ivans
showed him on several occasions big
bunches of greenbacks of all i^rts of
denomlnatlooa, bills ss high as
tl.OOJ and sevaral of three In each
bunch.
On one ro'aslon when the witness
told Evans a certain dnor in the hour

a beaver bat sitting on the floor, full
of greenbacks of large denominations,
and naked if ba did not think that

Among the presents, Mm witness

money by the committee, for tbe leg
islature had bean treated Just as the
reporter was, it instructed the com
mittee to make a report of Its expen

It having ooiha to tha ears of the
Columbia Record that all the mem-
bars of the dispensary Investigating
committee sxoept one had drawn dou
ble per diem during the session of the
general assembly the fifit part of this
year, and not believing it possible
that members of a committee investi
gating graft would do anything of that
sort shout the pruprloty, at least, of
which there could us so much ques
tton, the Record man addressed tbe
following letter to Hon. J. T. Hay,
chairmen a* the committer:
"I have been Informed that your

denied that Evans told him on one

The most important part of Da vis 1
testimony was, perhaps, that Involv

to health. Under existing law the
National Govemmait hu no powar
to enforce Inipectlou of tbe many
forme of prepared meet food product*

Owing to an Inadequate appropria

not even able to place inspectors in
all establishments desiring them Toe
present law prohibits the shipment of

thus the avdnuMof Interstate oom
