MIR. WALDRON,S CASE.

Public interest in MT. Waldron's case Ii intense. He has taken prompt action ir the shape of a libel suit against Attorney Daley. and he and his counsel are actively at work collecting evidence. It is now re- ported that MT. Daley does not charge MT
 Waldron with altering the figures; that he simply says the figures have been altered, and that MT. Waldron was alone with the books. We suppose that this is all that can bs maintained, even if this can be. And it can fairly be said in MT. Waldron's behalf that there has been abundant op- portunity for those who might want to injure him or the case of the petitioners to alter the records.
 The matter is to be thoroughly and care fully investigated, and though it is com plicated it is probable that the truth will appear. All who know MT. Waldron well unite in declaring their belief in his inno- cence, and the great majority of those who do not know him are equally confident that he is not guilty, because they do not believe he would do such a foolish and short-sighted thing. One of the strong points in his favor is that some of the alterations were very clumsily made, and it is forcibly reasoned that if Mr. Waldron had made them they would have been so made that they could not easily have been discovered. One thing is certain, and that is that no evidence has been brought for sBard to show that he did make them, and in our opinion none that will show that he did will be. @iSs YA
