Some brilliant individual in New
York, who has evidently given the
matter considerable attention., writes
that the best way to get trouble
some mosquito out of a room is to fill
tin cup half full of petroleum oil,
place the cup on pole and hold it
above the head until the mosquito
succumbs to the fumes. The spec
tacle Of a dignified gentleman hop
ping around in his night shirt trying
to balance flaming tin can on Il mop
handle, would certainly have a ten
dency to scare the ncighhors, if it
didn't the mosquito. The New York
man might have made the story
shorter by simply stating that the
way to get rid of mosquitoes is to
burn the house down.

Gen. Strong Surrenders.
Picayuue. Nov, ..


Gen. VIII A. Strong. late Secretary Of
State and present Secretary of the
Louisiana State Senate, presented him
self at Baton Rouge yesterday and sur
rendered for trial in the District Court
Oh q charge of embezZling State funds.
There is Il State law which requires
that the paper used for election ballots
shall be of a specific kind, To be far
nished by the State and sold to election
managers or other Interested parties.
This paper is placed in the coustody Of
the Secretary OF State, who deals it ont
TO purchasers. accounting to the Treas
urer for the money received after de-
ducting a com mission allowed to cover
his tronble. Gen StroHg il charged
with having, while he was Secretary of
State, failed to account for moneys re-
ceived from the sale of this paper. The
defalcation, which has existed for sew
eral years, amounts to something like
5000. He has lately been indicted by
the Grand Jury of the Baton Rouge
District Court, and his somewhat tardy
appearance for trial is the result. He
has been admitted to bail in the sum of
5000. The prosecution of this case can
safely be left to the brave and able
Attorney General. He realizes that a
public Office is public trust. and he
will demand that others shall equally
recognize the fact. The money of the
State is the money of the peOle, and
they have right to know it is disposed
off as the law directs. The Attorney
General will see to this for them. Some
of our country exchanges have been
waiting for q response to the Picayune's
charge. They have itnow.

1t isa disgrace to the State and al
Injustice and insult to the laboring
classes that convict labor has the pre-
eedence i'm building our levees. 1t Is to
be hoped, for humanity's sake, that the
Secretary of War will allow no part OF
the national appropriation for the re-
building of the Morganza or any other
levee in this State to flow into the cotf-
ers of tho lessees of the penitentiary.
There are thousands of honest laborers
in this State who solely depend upon
their daily toll to support their families,
and to force them ro compete with
convict labor is not only an injustice
and an Insult. but an everlasting dis
grace and stain upon the fair escutch-
con of Louisiana.
Ii seems from the above that our con
frere of the Lake Charles Echo, gives
the lessees OF the penitentiary IA back
handed lick, in opposing convict labor
on pnblic works. He must certainly
have tcolicy baby" aud learned some
thing Of the "nights of labor" lately.
Our friend of the Echo should have
given as some suggestion what to do
with the convicts. They are costly
institution, aud they should be made to
labor and at hard labor, at amy time or
place, for the public welfare. The
penitentiary is not a place or an asylum
of rest and ease, but place of punish
meut, and we do not see where the
punishment of criminals in the mild
form Of labor could be utilized to Il
greater benefit than on all public works
of the State. Do not insist on immigra-
tion and then assert that thousands OF
our honest laborers have to compete
with convict labor in earning their daily
bread. No honest, industrious, econom
ical laborer need be without Il home IN
this broad and sunny land OF ours, and
we believe Our,confrere will bear US out
in the assertion that Louisiana is cursed
with the most uncertaln, unreliable,
worthless labor of any State in the
Union. Competition is what we need,
and it must come from some source be-
fore We cun have an industrious, thrifty,
enterprising. economical population,
which majority of the people at pres
>ent know little about.
Now as to the Golfers of the penIten-
tiary. well, may be they get more than
their share, if sD, will Ed. Bryan tell us
whose fault it is, and why so much is
being said about the matter. Where
