Exclusively Ours.

The following from the Baton
Rouge Truth correctly expresses
the sentiments of the ex-Confed-
crate soldier:
"What pity the old Confedel-
ates did not stop the crank who at
Atlanta pinned a Confederate
badge on the breast of President
Mckinley against the feeble pro-
test of the latter. To say nothing
Of the embarrassment caused the
President, who looks upon Con-
federate colors as a bull does up
on red flag, and who for years
has been associated with those
preaching ''that treason must be
made odious' and that the Con-
federate soldiers were rebels and
traitors, the desecration of the
colors themselves was little less
than u crime against the memory
Of our dead. The Confederate
flag is sacred to the past, and
while we admire President McKin-
ley for his generous mention of
our dead and for his amiability
generally, we are unwilling to have
our badges placed upon the coats
of those who think it crime to
even look upon one- Our flag and
badges have nothing to do with
the present.
Our flag was furled by it's de-
Tenders long ago and now to drag
it forth to answer political pur-
poses is both unwise and We may
say well-nigh sacreligious. Let us
keep the flag buried III our own
hearts as memento of q struggle
for seIf-government such as was
never before or since known in
the history of the world and not
idly fout it or force our badges
upon those who abhor the cause
for which we fought.

The New Orleans Exposition.

The outlook for the success of
the Louisiana Industrial Expo
sition which will be held at the
Fair Grounds in New Orleans
from May oAh to May 3lst 1899, is
very promising. Large quantities
of space havf already been ap-
piled for and ] llotted to the prin-
cipal local n trchants and there
still remains Il considerable num-
ber more to bf acted upon by the
committee having the matter i'll
charge. 1t is now an assured fact
that there will be IL nightly pre-
sentation of an elaborate pyro-
technic display of the now cele-
brated sinking of the collier Mer-
rimac, i'll the narrow entrance to
Santiago harbor and the running
fight made by Cervera $ fleet in
its attempt to escape from the
blockading squadron at Santiago.
The plans for the buildings are
receiving the finishing touches,
and work upon the construction
thereof will be commenced imme-
diately after the close of the win
ter racing meet now in progress
at the Fair Grounds, where the
Industrial Exposition is to be held.
Another of the features of the
Fair will be Il unique representa-
tion Of Midway Plaisance shown
for the first time at the Worlds
Fair. The r. r. interests Of the
city are formulating plans for
the bringing to New Orleans of
large excursion parties from va
rious sections Of the Southern
States, and they are confident of
attracting large crowds.
On the night preceding the
opening of the Fair there will be
rendered at the Tulane Theater II
drama written by a New Orleans
playwright anc presented by New
Orleans artists of whom the city
is justly proud. The annual re-
sources of Louisiana will be fit
tingly exhibited during the Fair,
large spaces having been allotted
for the special exposition Of her
products.

In mentioning the fact that
Theodule Ardoin bad been grant
ed new trial by the Supreme
Court. after the case had gone
through, first, mistrial; second.
conviction; third, an appeal
when the judgement was affirmed !;
fourth, rehearing granted; fifth,
new trial and conviction; sixth,
new trial applied for and grant
ed by the Supreme Court, where
the case now stands, the Clarion
of january 2Sth says: 8 Hon. =:
B. Dubuisson has represented
Ardoin throughout this interest
ing battle with the courts
This statement looks little
peculiar in view Of the fact that
Hon. John N. Ogden has been
connected with the case with Mr..
Dubuisson as Ardoin's attorneys,
Mr.. Ogden appearing on three
different occasions for the accused.
The Clarion's article leaves the
impression that Mr.. Ogden took
no part in the case, whereas, on
the contrary he took very active
part in it throughout.
