This has been an even:ful week in
politics. Abuse of the vilest kind ha:
been hurled at "Whallen and his gang
and the vocabulary of billingsgate ex
hausted. The law of common decency
forbids the use of red-hot, violent abuse
such as Mr.. Whallen has enjoyed reading
of himself in the daily papers during the
past two weeks. One would deem il
sufficient to state the shortcomings OF
ones opponent and the glorious dawn OF
the millennium that would be ushered in
if ones particular idol were elected, etc.,
but to resort to mud and mire singing,
disgusting falsehoods apparent on the
very face of them, couched in words moi
fit to appear in print, it is time long
since to cry halt. People who know
John Whallen know him to be about as
free from faults as other men. He does
not pose for canonization alter death,
does not ask for office and will positively
not accept one for the sake of enriching
brothers, cousins, uncles and nephews to
the thirty-third degree of kindred, and
all out of the city treasury. The many
scores of unfortunate business men who
have been assisted by him out of his own
private bank account can bear testimony
to his liberality and kindness. Envy
loves a shining mark, " and one man on a
house top will attract notice where many
below pass by UNDECIDED. Col. Whallen
is on the house top, even though he and
his followers get beaten.

correctly represent the existing con-
dluons among the Philippines IN
respec, to dissension and demorAlizs-

the declaration that The situation is

ave think the tenseiiy Of the
Filipino purpose has been underes-
timsted, and that the statements are
unfounded that volunteers are willing
to engage in further service.
