The unproyoked attack made
by Mayor Seymour on A. V. Faw-
cett last night has lost the mayor
most of the few friends he has
left as a public executive of the
city.
1t, however, has emphasized the
fact that the same elements that
control Seymour are controlling
Stoever, and has opened the eyes
of many people who are COM
pletely disguised with the wishy-
washy, Sissy character of the pres
ent mayor and who certainly do
not want any more of his kind of
administration. The following let
ter has been received by the
Times on the situation:
1.-THE littleness of Mr.. Seymour
was never better exemplified than
in his vicious personal attack up
on Mr.. Fawcett as found in last
evenings News. rhave no fear
but what it will be taken at its
true worth, but l want to call at

wholly unprovoked and is in ex-

From the time Mr.. Fawcett was
recalled until now he has re-
Trained from criticising his sue
cessor, although surely there has
been plenty of provocation. He
took his medicine cheerfully and
left 1t to Time to show the true
character of the man who claimed
to be so much better than he,
throwing no obstacles In his way,
but giving him a free hand to
make good IL he could.
In reward for this considerate
conduct this "holier than thou"
now hurls invectives at the incom-
ing mayor, refuses him credit for
his struggle for the municipal
dock and accuses him of being a
hypocrite on the saloon issue, APP
parently forgetful of his own re-
cent refusal to sign the petition
for statewide prohibition. 1t is
surely a sad spectacle for gods
and men.
He says with much JUNCTION that
he will vote for Mr.. Stoever.
