In the matter of dispute between
Judge Smith and the Attorney General,
as to the duty of the latter to appear on
hearings of State cases before him, we
will not presume to give an opinion on
the legal aspects of the question. But
of the great importance of the State be
-ng represented in all such hearings ex
perience has given us a very decided
-onviction. It is the practice in all the
-other States. The judge cannot stand
for a prosecutor, and ought not to be
required or expected so to appear and
;act. Nor is it prudent or proper that pri
vate individuals representing private in
:terests should control such prosecutions.
There is always two much danger of a
,eompounding or compromising of the
State's interest in such prosecutions
from the appearance of private parties
by private counsel. Nor should there
be an opportunity for private parties to
gratify private malice or revenge in the
in the name of the State. The bearing
nnd conduct of prosecutions before com
mnitting magistrates is the first and most
important step in such prosecutions
and the State ought always to be repre
sented therein.
The hearing of Fulton's case has been
postponed without a day. This, on ac
count of the absence of counsel. Such
postponement on the grounds stated do
not appear to us to be in the spirit and
practice of the law, which requires a
speedy hearing of all such cases. The
accused ought to be ready, at least, to
submit his defense, and the Stat9 her
probable cause, after so long a delay
'since the arrest. There are many
dangers which such a postpone
ment exposes .a prosecution to.
The lack of vigor and promptitude in
our criminal prosecutions has given
reat immunity to crime in Louisiana.
nease like that of Fulton might long
pinee have been pushed to a hearing.
Besides the gravity of the charge, there
is a chance of the State learning a great
deal respecting the mysteries of the tax
oollectorship of the First District, and
of Auditor Johnson's administration of
the Auditor's office from the testimony
which will be elicited in the hearing and
investigation of Fulton's case.
