Attack on GaynOr.

The entire country was shocked
when 1t was learned Tuesday evening
of the attempted assination of Mayor
Gaynor, of New York City, that morn
ing by James Edward Gallagher. dis
charged city employe.
The mayor was on ship board bid
ding goodbye to friends before em-
barking for Europe when he was
approached by Gallagher who shot
him with revolver. the bullet
entering ,the neck, lodging under
his tongue. The assassin was over
powered by bystanders. The condi-
tlon of the mayor is considered very
serious.
Gaynor was elected mayor of New
York City last fall on the Democratic
ticket and has made an excellent rec
ord since taking office as an honest
and capable official. His administra-
tion has been of such a high character
that he has been prominently men,
toned as a candidate for governor OF
New York and also for president Of
the United States on the Democratic
ticket.
Before his election as mayor he had
served with distinction on the Appel
ate Division of the Supreme Court Of
New York.
Throughout the entire nation sor-
row is felt over his serious injury and
that he may ultimately recover is the
wish and hope of all.
He can i'll be spared at this time as
men of his ability and character are
sorely needed in public positions and
the work he was performing in New
York City needs his hands to be car
ried to a successful end.
The hope for his recovery is as uni
versal as the adherence of the assas-
sins act.
