A Specimen Ring Politician.
Baton Rouge Truth.

/ The article from the n. 0. Picayunt
quoted elsewhere, entitled "a Specimen
Brlgadier General is a pretty severe
reflection upon the Administration
politicians of this State no less than q
death blow to the future aspirations OF
man who has proven himself to be
unworthy OF exercising a public trust
The article might with greater proprie-
ty have been styled "a Specimen Loui-
siana Ring Politician"
We are, however, candid enough to
State that Governor McEnery has evil
IDENTIFY been placed in somewhat
wrong position by an inaccuracy in the
statement that he had appointed Mr..
Strong Brigadier- General of the militia
after he. as Governor, had been nOtified
OF the defalcatiOn of the 'ticket mon
ey." AS matter of fact the appoint
ment was made and the commission is
sued on the 2Sth of January, 1884, while
Strong was yet Secretary of State,
and the fact that Strong had
failed to account for the ticket money
did not become known until his going
out of Office.
But this only an immaterial alteration
10 the original statement of the case.
The fact remains that one of the prom
idSuO VI LIt
camp, man honored by position of
dignity and emolument, counselor
among them, has been proven, in an
office of trust, to have misappropriated
public monies. If he bad been ignom-
inously kicked out and disgraced and
sued for the money the Governor knew
he had misapplied, this undoubtedly
would have freed the Administration
OF all suspicion of approval. This was
the proper course but it was not pur-
sued. In place of being subjected to
disgrace, this known defaulter of the
publlc money was maintained in homo
rable position, the Governor contenting
himself with writing private letters of
remonstrance, while the Administration
