LEE BURKE BUBBLE BUs1ED.

The Foster Nichols combination
are rehashing the Burke bond bust
ness in hopes that the people will
forget the culpability of Nichols in
allowing him to escape. Auditor
Steel in q speech at Shreveport
paid bis respects to the State House
Ring, and among other things he
gave a history of the bond defalca-
tiOn-explained the duties of the
several officers under the sfaw-re-
ports of legislative committees and
quoted from the joint report of the
auditor and treasurer, also from
Governor Nichols message to the
Generate Assembly, session of
1890, as follows : 1.-THE great shock
to public confidence by this act Of
gross and criminal official miscon-
duct comes from the fact that the
custody of these securities has been
left to one man, and that it was
thus made possible for him to have
concealed his act without check OF
discovery for nearly ten years, and
TO have been enabled to have pEac-
ed himself beyond the power Of ar
rest before his crime had been uB-
earthed. Some. legislation should
commend itself to the General AS.
sembly which would make it posi-.
BILE for the executive department to
ascertain at any time the precise
condition and situation ofthe affairs
of all State officers, and appropria
tiOns should be made to carry out
such legislation. / Am convinced
such a course would be acceptable
to the officers now charged with
snch administration, and result in
benefit to the people,"
With reference to the 1896, sSe
consolidated bonds surrendered in
exchange for constitutional bonds,
he quoted from the Joint report Of
the auditor and treasurer, showing
that the bonds were destroyed iu
May, 1882.

result il 8 total increase in the
taxation Of more than double the S
min tax.
# the language ussd above is
correct then Murphy Foster does
not endorse his Chairman, 3. b.
Krnttschnitt when the latter says
in the New Orleans Ee4s Dslta: "If
q good government could be se-
cured to the State for the coming
four yearab By yielding them loReesl
to "boss7 element, instead Of i'm
periIing the control Of the whole
State and city government for that
period, / should deem the result an
unqualified blessing to the State
aud one deyoutly wished for.r just
compare this admission with the
hanghty language Of Murphy Eos
ter quoted above. Mr.. Kruttschnitt
says in substance that he wanted
bosses, and his excuse for accept
ing service from such corrupt
sources Foster and Co. always
speak Of the bosses in such terms
was to save the State. He also de
velOps a great interest in the New
Orleans city government. He says
ofthis 1.-THE divisionin the rankl
Of the 'tring,' politicians, which Mr.
Fitzpa tricks course would have
opened would necessarily have
left the way open to the best ele
ments in the party for q clean and
hovest city government"
It is a good idea to read an these
pretty little extracts together, and
remembering what Murphy Fosters
interest was as compared with the
direct benefit, little or small, to the
other conEpirators in this bribery
episode, the voter can then judge
Of the sincerity of the denial that
Foster makes, and which is fOundi in
Che FIRST lines of this article.
