THE IMPEACHMENT QUESTION.

We take occasion to now reiterate our be-
lief that all the officers of the State reported
by the House Committee on the State Treas
urer's accounts, as guilty of violation of the
law, and of misappropriating, or being parties
to the misuse of, State funds; should be i'm
peached or addressed out of Office, as the case
may be, by the House Of Representatives, pro-
vided they do not come under the terms of
the Joint Resolution passed by the House al
the extra session.
We do not see how the State Treasurer, YoY
instance, can escape impeachment, for it is
patent that he violated the sacred trust re.
posed in him, and he can not escape respon-
sibility foi the act by alleging that he was
over persuaded A man who can be over.
persuaded to violate the law and permit the
funds Of the State to be tempered with may
not be personally dishonest, but he is too
weak man to be safely entrusted with such
grave responsibilities. We do not believe
chat impeachment would succeed, but it is
che duty of the House to proceed
q il it would, and thus throw the blame Tor
failuse upon the Senate.

INSPECTORS OF GAS METERS.

| RI. Walker, Of Orleans, has introduced in
the House Of Representatives bill (No. 338)
20 provide board Of gas meter inspectors for
che city Of New Orleans. by which the Mayor
is to appoint, annually, 6veinspectors Of gas
meters. TO constitute board. Whenever re.
quested by any consumer Of gas the inspectors
shall examine the meter Of such consumer in
order to Test its accuracy, and this inspec.
ton may be sepeated as often as once every
thirty days. the result Of which inspection
shall be certified by the inspector; the charge
for the inspection and certificate being in each
case twenty-five CENTS The Gas Light Com
pany is forbidden to charge for more gas than
having been consumed "until the claim for
such excess shall have been established by
decree of competent court" When tender of
payment for gas certified to have been con-
sumed shall be made, the Gas Light Company
is forbidden to turn of the consum ers gas
under penalty of q fine of s25 or 500, or i'm
prisonment for term not exceeding one
month.
The Board of Gas Meter Inspectors must
maintain central Office, and they serve with.
out other compensation than the fees paid
for certificates Of inspection.
Whether this bill will have the intended
effect or not, it would at least go to the extent
of giving satisfaction to many consumers OF
gas who now believe that their meters are in
correctly read or that they do not indicate the
proper measure. Where the inspectors of the
company and the inspectors Of the board dis
agree as to the registration of the meter or as
to the correctness of its indication, it is not
easy to say how the discrepancy is to be re-
conciled even before court. The meter sys-
tenn is only an approximation to accuracy in
ascertaining the amount of gas consumed
The plan Of charging for the number of
burners Of given size used in family, with
out reference to actual measurement, would
perhaps lead to results as nearly satisfactory
as the present system. The number of cubic
feet OF gas consumed BY half dozen six feet
burners each hour is an easy calculation |
where the fow il under uniform pressure.
Tho average length Of time during which gas
i uaed il families y also easily ascertainAble.

ANOTHER JUDICIAL LUMINARY TO
BE INVESTIGATED.
A Splendid Subject for Impeachment.

| A Splendid Subject for Impeachment.
The members of the 81. Mary bar having
called in vain upon their parish judge E. B
Mentz, to resign his. office on the grounds O
corruption and incompetency, have at last re
sorted to the Legislature for his removal by
constitutional means. He is to be investi
gated, and if half that is said of him proves
to be true. and if incompetency and corrup
ton in Office are deemed by the constitutions
majority Of each House sufficient for the re.
moval of judge, then surely there will soon
be vacancy on the bench Of the parish
court of st. Mary Parish for the Governor
to fll
Judge Mentz is either much slandered man,
or he is more worthy to serve the State in one
of our public institutions than to disgrace ju-
dicial station. It would be bad enough to have
fool upon the bench, even if he were an
honest fool, but if as much knsve as fool, and
these qualities so blended as to be difficult to
see which predominates. OF 10 which his ju-
dicial vagaries are attributable, such judge
is public nuisance that ought to be abated
without delay. UndeS the administration of
such judge not only is justice perverted
and law contemhed. but the lawyers are al.
most fotced to use "cuss words unbecoming
ehristjan gentlemen as q vent to their disgust.
Such jadge breeds contempt foy Judicial
authority demoyalizine to the whole eommu-
nifty.
Surely there must be sad state OF political
morals where such man as Mentz. his de-
PRAYED characset SO we'll known, can be elected
Judge Of such parish AZ st. Mary. II the
dominant party can End no bettes material in
theit own ranks, they ought to 60 outside to
find fit candidate, irrespective Of his politics.
Let not the Radical members of the Gegis.
1ature believe chat they are serving the best
interests Of their party by eetainine in Office
corrupt and incompetent judges. twill prove
a fatal mistake. On the contrary, when such
charges are made and they are asked to exer-
else theif constitutional authority to remove
by address or impeachment, let them make o
faiS and impartial investigation Of the facts.
and if the charges are justified by the facts,
let them promptly semove the delinquent
without xegard to his politics. They will thus
lay claim 20 public confidence, which they
will hereaftes find essential 20 theiy party
success.
Let Mentz be investigated fully and fairly,
and let 1t be shown by the proofs whether or not
be is indeed the fool and knave he is repre-
sented to be. If he il the ass under the
lions skin, let that skin be torn from him
but, if he is q veritable lion, let not the gus
tics any longer treat him like an ass.
