U7adeserUl7aS Honor.
FEW weeks ago considerable was said about
Mayor Weaver, of Philadelphia, and the fight that
he made against the gas robbers. He was praised
and heroized until there little left to be said on
the subject To the people he stood out the only
true apostle of reform, and was hailed as public
benefactor second only to Cincinnatus. Recent
events, however, prove that Mayor Weaver is the
most pitiable hero ever brought before the lmeght
The part he played in the great gas grab that of
an unwilling participant. In no sense was he the
great protagonst that we were led to believe What
action he took was deliberately forced upon him by
the citizens It is also said that he parted with his
erstwhile friends with considerable reluctance.
This is the kind of man whom we thought stood
for righteous government, and who represented the
best element Of the commonwealth. Believing that
he was as great he made out to be- he was be-
ing groomed for presidential honors and fairly
lionized by the simple Quakers Of Pennsylvania He
now appears as bad as those whom he was forced to
