The Names of the Months.

Every Christianized country on the

GLEASON THE GOOD
A TRIBUTE TO THE PATRON SAINT OF HUNTERS

rothe Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: notice the second virulent editorial attack
on Mayor Gleason. OF Long Island City, In wednes-
days Tribune. The Of vicious an onslaught
Is beyond the comprehension Of those who have known
Mr. Gleason for many years, and have full conlzance
of his superior ability and excellence a. man and a
chief magistrate of what at ttme-before his
election as Mayor-o7e Of the worst, and worstgov-
erned cities In the State. Tho Trbunes assault could
not have been from any real knowledge Of the man
as a man. nor as Mayor its charges being absolutely
and unquallfedly false except In port Is to tho
assault upon Mr.. Crowley, which was in no sense as
serious as charged The charge that I" Gleason had
often before administered chastisement to Individuals
who did not please him." Is groundless. and the
Of this outrageous travesty OF fact For years
that city has been dlsgaced BY the Official conduct and
personal habits of its Mayor but respectable citizens
have reason fear" ETC., II Is simply astounding
that any public journal that city should DO
in such glsring Respectable citizens, indeed
The facts are that those citizens are the Mayors best
friends and without party distinction, too. On tho
contrary It is the gamblers booksellers. saloons, and
other of the worst society elements that have feared
the big Mayor and with good reason. for he has
fought them sharply, bitterly. and in very large
measure effectively, clearing many OF them out never
to return surely not while Patrick Gleason is Mayor
OF that city.
And what OF the schools The Tribune should
know that Mr.. Gleason has done ten times a. much
for education as had been done within fifty years be
fore Catholic as he is, he mas made no discrunina
ton ON account OF religious beliefs. even putting his
own funds into school buildings In order TO hasten their
Completion He has denounced inefficient teachers,
and in the face of determined opposition haS compelled
the employment OF efficient and worthy Ones No pub
lie offoer In q hundred cities Is more truly honored
and loved by the children than Mayor Gleason. whom
The Tribune brands as a bully; and an enemy OF al
decency, q supporter and hacker Of gamblers rum
sellers. etc. Such travesty OF faets, Of common
in stice toward neighbor seems very singular. II
Il is politics it is mighty bad politics. decent men
see IT, I am not Democrat, or Catholic but e., !
mon man who has done and Is trying TO do 80 much
good for city Patrick Gleason can justly be
credited with. Yours for Justice E. 0. BALL. q
