Belated Justice.

Whatever other faults ex-Gov. Davis H. Waite may have exhibited during his term of office, it must be said that no taint of dishonesty or corruption ever attached itself to his record as governor. Undoubtedly he committed many serious blunders, but he could neither be bought nor bulldozed, and we have no doubt that he always endeavoredto do what was best for the people of Colorado. It must be re membered, too, that his term occurred in ape iod of extraordinary disturbance and depression, which would have rendered it difficult, if not impossible for the most level headed man in the world to have made a very satisfactory record as governor of Colorado under the circumstance*. Let us endeavor to do justice to his good qualities while deploring his errors or unwise utterance* and ill advised action.—Denver Republican.
