POLICE JUROR ELECTED,
BUT NOT COMMISSIONED.

In mentioning the election Of a
police juror IN the Sixth Ward to
| fill the Gajan vacancy we arc Civ
ing out "old' ncws-yct it is "un-
finished business.
On Thursday. June 2nd, 1910. the
Police Jury Of this parish officially de-
clared a vacancy in the body by the
removal Of the domicile of Mr.. Emile
Ga ian. the President, from this parish
and adopted 4 resolution notii, ing the
| Governor Mr. A. l.. Moresi was then
elected President.
On July % the Parish Democratic
Executive Committee opened the ap
plications for the democratic nomina
ton. The subsequent refinement Of
MIR, Wclch's application lett Mr. Mes
taycr the sole applicant, making a
primary unnecessary and SO declared
by the Committee on Aug 2nd
August 18th MIR. Carlos Messenger
was elected TO the position Of Police
Juror for the 9th Ward Of IBERIA Far
ish without opposition TO fill the G"jan
vacancy.
Within the ten days following Mr..
Mestaycr's election he was entitled to
his commission from the Cove rnor.
Up TO the date OF this writing he has
not received 1t.
Is there any special re. son. oth,
than playing politics, for The withhold
ing Of This commission for quite two
months after the vote have declared
Mr.. Mestaycr worthy and entitled to it?
Is it tapprehended that Mr. Mestaycr's
influence or vote may change official
results?
Is the wait prolonged in the hopes
that a juror may be elected from Jean
erette whose vote would nullify Mr.
Mestayer'sp
IL II fair to the people Of the Sixth
Ward to hold this position of police
juror vacant any longer, when all that
is required is signature?
