To re Editor Of Tie Tribune:
In speaking OF public men it is not untyequent!y
the case that in estimating their political standing we
overlook their personal ana pirate virtues Qualities
which adorn the good man and private citizen are too
often forgotten N The candidate Tor popular favor 10

good Democrat" Trying the worthy representatives
nj the Third Ward by other and higher principles We
protest against the sweeping censure that cast On 'heSa
gentlemen BY some persons for their supposed or sppa
rent of parts OF the ard more lnnedsley
